For those who have followed the site for the 5 years we’ve been here, you’ll remember that we used to have a podcast titled “Talkin Toku at the Nation”. It became “Talkin Toku” and grew to be somewhat popular in various circles for people who enjoyed three idiots discussing things that their wives and girlfriends have considered leaving them for time and time again.

Talkin Toku is back – now as a weekly YouTube show – featuring a variety of hosts throughout the tokusatsu fandom. The first episode – Talkin Power Rangers Trailer – is now live and features @TokuChris and >@SoulInkChu of TokuNation.com, and @JmannDX from CollectionDX.com. Check out the episode below.

If you enjoy the video – please like and subscribe! While Talkin Toku is no longer considered part of TokuNation.com, we look forward to sharing their videos in the future.
