Music to My Ears: Clash on the Big Bridge (FFRK Remix)

June 27, 2016August 23, 2016 Chris

We’re switching gears a bit this week with a new twist on an old classic. Clash on the Big Bridge has made several appearances throughout the Final Fantasy series since its original outing in V. Usually it has something to … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Clash on the Big Bridge (FFRK Remix)

June 20, 2016July 28, 2016 Chris

Street Fighter is a series that’s received tons of play in our music posts, and with good reason. Some of its most famous characters have iconic themes that have resonated for almost 30 years now (and yes, that number does … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Theme of Ryu (SFV)

Music to My Ears: Schala’s Theme

June 13, 2016July 25, 2016 Gray Areas

Ah, yes. There are many songs that might be considered the most emblematic in Chrono Trigger (like the eponymous track, for instance), but I think this one takes the cake. I can’t talk about why this track resonates with so … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Schala’s Theme

Manga Eren vs Anime Eren

June 10, 2016March 4, 2017 Michaela

After reading the newest chapter of Attack on Titan, I can say with certainty that it’s one of the best chapters in the series. Emotional and epic on so many levels, I haven’t felt this strongly about a chapter of … Continue reading Manga Eren vs Anime Eren

Captain America is a Hydra Agent?

June 8, 2016March 4, 2017 Michaela

On the (rarely) wonderful social media source that is Facebook, I recently read that in the latest Marvel comics, Captain America is revealed to be a Hydra agent. Now I’m not well-versed in the comics, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe … Continue reading Captain America is a Hydra Agent?

Music to My Ears: Hollow Light of the Sealed Land

June 6, 2016July 18, 2016 Chris

Last week we skipped around a bit and talked about my absolute favorite track from Trails of Cold Steel (and honestly, a top-10 all-time pick for me). This week we’re shifting back to what got me into the series, a … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Hollow Light of the Sealed Land

Worst Anime Tropes – Amnesia

June 5, 2016March 4, 2017 Michaela

Amnesia is one of the most commonly used tropes in countless media. It’s a trope that I’ve come to despise more and more over the years because of how often it is abused. More often than not, the inclusion of … Continue reading Worst Anime Tropes – Amnesia

Music to My Ears: Into the Abyss

May 30, 2016June 27, 2016 Gray Areas

Oh my god, this song. No, wait, too soon. Gotta set things up first. Hang on. I’m not a big fan of self-flagellation on blog posts, so let’s keep that to a minimum. Schedules have been busy and I haven’t … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Into the Abyss

Video Game Minireviews

May 23, 2016July 30, 2017 Michaela

After doing the TriForce Heroes joint review, I thought it’d be fun to do write reviews of several video games in this shorter format, and rather than posting them individually, I’ve condensed them into one for your reading pleasure. Enjoy! … Continue reading Video Game Minireviews

Gray Areas

Gray Areas is a pop culture extravaganza with a live weekly podcast every Thursday night, daily Let's Play videos, and a bevy of old blog posts for your enjoyment.

The current crew includes Chris, Dave and Shaun, who have been there since the beginning, and Cody, who joined in 2021. We also have other contributors like Michaela who chip in from time to time.

We cover everything from video games, anime and movies to music, books and idiots in the news.

This whole thing was started as At the Buzzer in February 2011, the brainchild of three men desperate for attention. It became Objection Network in 2017 and then this in 2024. It’s slightly related to an old Flagstaff radio show from 2008, kinda like how Frasier was slightly related to Cheers. In other words, we're all getting old and it's a little depressing.
