TAS Rewind: Ep 1 with Jessie James Grelle
Obscure Chatter is the new home of the 2010-2014 podcast That Anime Show!
When hosting for the original RSS Feed lapses, it’s Obscure Chatter to the rescue!
For those that don’t know, That Anime Show was a podcast hosted by Terri Doty and J. Michael Tatum that ran from 2010 to 2014. The initial concept of TAS was to explore the dubbing industry, but it soon grew to be more freeform and less predictable.
Special Guest Jessie James Grelle joins hosts Terri and Tatum for the very first episode of That Anime Show. This episode is one of three where the recording itself was not done by the TAS Crew. This, along with format, changes over time.
There have been edits to cut out advertisements. Disregard the phone number, events and website mention.

Episode 33 — The Chew Toy
Thankful for another episode of Obscure Chatter? So are we!
Terri is back for November and thankful for a lot! So much has happened since October and it is time to dive into the deep end.
Buckle up as Terri gives you the skinny while watching [CENSORED].
Few things we talk about:
- Social Shakeup
- “It’s that thing as a creative that you constantly kind of get pushed up against, which is: Are you going to keep doing what you love and monetarily not having a lot to show for it? OR are you going to sacrifice a bit of what truly makes you happy in order to get further along financially?”
- The Andy Dufresne-ness
- “Would it be the worst thing if you left?”
- “And then.. that was it.”
- Back To Freelance
- Tsuki Uzaki in Uzaki-chan Wants To Hangout! Season 2
- “I always kind of liken it to like being in love with someone but knowing that you guys have work to do. So saying, ‘Hey, I think we should take a break and maybe reevaluate, blah blah blah.’ And in the middle of still talking, the other party decides to be like, ‘You know what? Fuck you. I hate you, anyway. Bye!’ Like, DAMN. You don’t have to really prove how wrong we were for each other so fucking quickly, but thank you for not wasting my fucking time.”
- “Where did I go?”
- “You remember how much fun it is to be creative.”

Episode 21 – Madden Into Misanthropy
Our May episode is another one where Terri watches television rather than a movie. We’re still censoring titles, character names, etc so you can just focus on the rambling woman.
And OH, NO… Someone gave Terri beer.
Here are some things Terri covers while watching [CENSORED]:
- 100% Vaccinated
- AC Debacle
- Terri can’t think of the word “transaction.”
- Karen = Yolanda
- Still wearing a mask
- “What’s one seemingly insignificant thing you wish you could do over?”
- “If I remember correctly, in an episode of That anime show, you guys gave advice to a man about to turn 20. Do you have any thoughts or advice about entering the 30’s? I turn 30 in about two weeks, and to be honest I’m a little stressed out about it.”
