1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,520
This is MJ. I'm an author, I'm an artist, I'm an analyzer. This is Red Panda Report

2
00:00:05,520 --> 00:00:11,760
episode 0 where I tell you what is the Red Panda Report. Red Panda Report is my

3
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:17,680
opportunity to relive the Red Panda Adventures for the third time I think in

4
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:23,120
order to study pulse-pounding pulpy goodness from Greg Taylor and the team

5
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:29,400
at Dakota Ring Theater and that's about it. So Red Panda Adventures ran for a

6
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:34,120
hundred and twenty episodes that's the complete I think linear series and then

7
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:41,520
after that Greg Taylor I think in 2022 not in 2021 so much but in 2022 and yes

8
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:46,200
in 2022 has released additional episodes that are kind of hopping around the

9
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,480
timeline of the Red Panda Adventures which Red Panda Adventures is about the

10
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:55,920
terrific twosome of Toronto which means it's a pair of Canadian superheroes back

11
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:01,400
in the 20s 30s kind of era so it's it's harkening back to things like the shadow

12
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:07,120
and Doc Savage and I don't know maybe Radio Dick Tracy you know a bunch of

13
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:12,000
stuff I don't know about but Red Panda and his female companion sidekick slash

14
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,480
well you got to listen to the show to find out work together they have crazy

15
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:21,240
gadgets and technology he's a martial arts expert and an expert in

16
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,120
other things so it's a little bit of well actually I was just a little bit

17
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:29,680
Batman but actually I found out that the Batman comics done by Bill Finger and

18
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:35,000
can't remember the other guy because the other guy was well I think Bill

19
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,880
Finger if I'm remembering my comics history deserves more credit for doing

20
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:45,240
original work on Batman the original comic however Batman the original comic

21
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:51,840
stole or very heavily used things from the original Shadow magazine issues

22
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:57,400
including the very first comic book issue of Batman I believe actually takes

23
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:03,680
stuff from the it's either the the ace or acme chemical company they actually

24
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,960
take that stuff from the Shadow one of Walter B Gibson's first Shadow novels

25
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,680
released in the Shadow magazine so anyway why am I bringing up the Shadow

26
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,520
well because Greg Taylor was very much informed by the Shadow in his creation

27
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:22,160
of Red Panda and I'm a writer an aspiring author as you heard me say in

28
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:26,920
the beginning of this and I want to make pulp heroes too and I actually want to

29
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:31,760
make comic books but I think I need to slow down work on my craft and spend

30
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,360
some time you know with my or some time working in the salt mines basically and

31
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,280
I think I'm gonna do that by writing pulp novels but in order to write pulp

32
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:45,860
novels I need to listen to pulp adventures like the Red Panda and I need

33
00:02:45,860 --> 00:02:49,560
to read pulp books which I have some shadow audiobooks I've got a non

34
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,160
audiobook version of the shadow as well the very first book which is called the

35
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,760
living shadow and basically I'm gonna be pouring as much pulp genre stuff into

36
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,880
myself as I can while I'm trying to figure out the vibe of writing pulp

37
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,840
characters for my pulp novels which I plan to write in the future and in the

38
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,400
meantime I'm gonna have a bunch of fun absorbing pulpy goodness through the Red

39
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:15,440
Panda adventures again by Greg Taylor and Dakota Ring Theatre and yeah that's I

40
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,360
think that's pretty much it that's what the Red Panda report is it's my excuse

41
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,000
to do that my opportunity to do that and it's something I want to share with

42
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,600
people because I figure if I'm going through this not like it's a chore but

43
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:30,360
if I'm going through this I may as well spend a little extra time and share the

44
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,240
goodness and the love of Red Panda with people and hopefully get some people

45
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:39,480
turned on to it and be a great place be a great source for Red Panda discourse

46
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:46,920
and discussion over on my author website MJMunios.com so yes I think that is

47
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,640
pretty much all I have to say so with that I'm gonna go ahead and get out of

48
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,200
here and there will be other introduction episodes which will all be

49
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,040
short and punchy and informative that'll give you a sense of who I am as a

50
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,120
content creator and what I'm gonna be doing with Greg Taylor's Red Panda

51
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:06,520
