And it’s a whopper! We had initially scheduled this episode to post an interview with Flint Dille, and we certainly accomplished that…but not only that, we also feature G.I. Joe legend Larry Hama, and G.I. Joe: Operation Red Retrieval masterminds Mark Cheng (director) and Joe Barbagallo (Beachhead). Mark, Joe, and Larry come on the show to make a very special announcement, and you will hear it FIRST right here on the podcast!

Yes, it went up a little late, but those cross-Atlantic plane trips will do that to ya! Recently returned from a whirlwind voyage to Southampton for Roll Out Roll Call 3, Gary has posted Episode 45 of What’s on Joe Mind for your Thursday morning listening enjoyment! In this episode we interview Frederic Doss, the only man known to have been killed by both Cobra and the Decepticons on the big screen (yes, he was victimized in both G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, and the first Michael Bay Transformers film), and a key mastermind behind the development of upcoming fanfilm, G.I. Joe: Initiate.
We’re also joined by a very special guest, Will Bell, recently returned from Afghanistan, who spends some time with us, just shooting the breeze about G.I. Joe. As if that wasn’t enough, an informative interview with Buzz Dixon rounds out this action packed episode.

Show Notes
WOW! Episode 45 is here! Better late than never, right? So yeah, its a week late, but we gave ya over 3 hours of RORC3 coverage, so that made up for something didn’t it? Apologies in advance. With travel and all, it made it difficult getting this out in a timely manner. We’ll make it up to you, trust us! In this episode we are joined by TWO very special guests. First, just joining us as a guest host and hanging out is US Marine, fan of the show and a REAL American Hero, Will Bell (no relation to Justin). Siting in the interview chair this week is Frederic Doss to talk to us about his upcoming fanfilm GI Joe: Initiate and his roles in BOTH the live action Joe and Transformer films. From the mailbag, Chuck is asked about the obscure South African wrestler Col. DeBeers joining the ranks of Cobra, Gary is asked why he hates Transformers so much, and was there ever a time anyone on the cast has ever lost interest in Joe and *gasp* STOPPED collecting. In the news, Hasbro responds to the latest issues with Fun Pub and the guys celebrate the conclusion of a long running show joke. Also covered in the news is the lack of new Joe broadcasting on the hub and a mystery Joe wave was found in the WalMart computers that has the look of being cancelled. After the break you will hear a pre-recorded interview with Sunbow writer Buzz Dixon as we talk to him about the toon and find out some stuff about the most dangerous man in the world AND what would have happened to Cobra Commander in season 3 if the series didn’t get lost to DIC. We thank Will for joining us and wish him continued success in his rehab and thank him for her service to our country. If you agree, kindly drop a comment in on this episode to let Will know how much you appreciate him as well!!

And it’s another great one. I posted a short while ago about Jim Sorenson’s upcoming book focused on the art of the Sunbow G.I. Joe animated series…well, the JDSO podcast wasted no time in actually getting him on the show to talk about it. We now know this book will be called “The Field Manual”, and should provide some interesting behind the scenes information to any Joe fans out there.
Best part of the interview is the idea that if this book does well, there’s a good potential for future books to come, from the Resolute or Renegades universe. How cool would that be?
For all of the latest and greatest intel on this book or potential future projects, be sure to keep an eye on Jim Sorenson’s blog.
It’s a great interview, and you also get the same level of G.I. Joe news and information that you’ve come to expect. Check out the JDSO Podbean Page, or hit up the embedded player below to listen.

The guys over at Flag Points are knocking it out of the park lately, and their latest episode is no exception. Continuing to dive into the Sunbow era of G.I. Joe greatness, the crew at Flag Points brings us a new episode and a great interview with G.I. Joe legend Flint Dille. Mr. Dille served as a story editor, associate producer, and writer of the Sunbow G.I. Joe animated series, and played a huge role in constructing the universe that so many of us are fond of today.
