- S.Link FM Episode 1: Enter the TV [slinkfm.com]
Description: In the very first episode of S.Link FM, we decide to start things off a little casually and go over how each of us got into the Persona series. We decided to do this podcast on a whim last night so I apologize if the first episode seems disorganized. Nonetheless, we manage to talk about how great Persona 2 is, how we got into the series, Persona 4 Arena at EVO2013, Persona 5 speculation, and jello's utilikilt.
- S.Link FM Episode 2: Persona 4-2 [slinkfm.com]
Description: The S.Link FM podcast returns to speculate upon hopes, dreams, and what little "info" we have about Persona 5. Our guest Inorigo (@Talespun, writer for GameRanx and RPGSite) chimes in with some great points for your consideration. We ask questions about Persona 5's combat, social link system, dungeons, cell phones, release date and even what console/handheld it might be on. Will our dreams come true or is S.Link FM a place where dreams go to die? You'll just have to listen and find out!
- S.Link FM Episode 3: New Days. [slinkfm.com]
Description: The S.Link FM podcast rises to the top of a mountain made of burning questions and shared experiences to to summon a storm of LBGT topics for discussion! Is Kanji gay? Who is the Sumaru Genie? Were you guys offended by that babe hunt scene in Persona 3? Why isn't anybody talking about the casino guys in Persona 1? Our guests shidoshi (@Pikoeri, writer for EGM, podcast legend of WAHP, and pressing issues panelist) and Inorigo (@Talespun, writer for GameRanx and RPGSite) lay down the knowledge and perspective you'll need to conquer society's many pitfalls. Lend us your ear for another S. Link FM!
- S.Link FM Episode 4: Anime Is For Jerks. [slinkfm.com]
Description:On Episode 4 of S.Link FM, we discuss the various anime adaptions of the Persona franchise. Firstly our panel gives a brief history of our experience with the Anime medium, where we’re pretty all over the place. CJKeats being the Anime connoisseur of the group, and the only one brave enough to watch Persona Trinity Soul. From there we tackle Persona 4: The Animation, and the upcoming Persona 3 movies. Most of the discussion spotlight was on the Persona 4 Anime, and our general feelings on how it handled the story, plot, and characters from the game. Also, considering some of the premises of the Persona series, anime recommendations are made!

- S.Link FM Episode 7: Voices in My Head with Erin Fitzgerald [slinkfm.com]
- S.Link FM Episode 8: Casual Saturdays - E3 2013 Edition [slinkfm.com]
Description: Once and a while the formalities need to be laid to rest and casual discussion needs to occur. In this episode we discussed the rumors that were surrounding a potential reveal of Persona 5 at E3 2013. We also discussed our favorite non-Persona/SMT related games from the show too. We assure you, S.Link FM is not becoming a general gaming podcast. This episode was recorded more to hold people over till the juicier episodes in the future arrive.
- S.Link FM Episode 9: Index's Amazing Commodities
Description: Well the news hit recently of Index corporation(Atlus's parent company) filing for Bankruptcy, now's the time for wild speculation about the future of Atlus! Potential buyers, whether or not Index would actually auction off Atlus, if they were sold what company would be the best fit and so on. Also, we've got another big guest coming on the podcast this Friday, and if you want to know who it is in advance, it's announced at the end of the episode!
Funnily enough, the day AFTER we recorded this the news of Index corp registering the Persona5.jp domain came to light. So there you have it, Persona 5 announcement is imminent!
- S.Link FM Episode 10: Sam Riegel interview
Description: Well folks, we were once again able to sit down and have a chat behind one of the voices of the Persona 4 cast. This time, Sam Riegel, who voiced Teddie in Persona 4: The Golden, Persona 4: Arena, and Persona 4: The Animation came on the show. Sam shed some light on his acting career, touched on what it was like working on the Persona projects, and gave some Beary good advice on for those looking to make it in the voice acting industry. This was a very bearable episode to record, nothing grizzly about it!
Apologies in advance that we did not get to everyone’s questions, we were on a bit of a time constraint. This episode is a lot more concise than previous ones and Sam really elaborate on the questions we did ask, so a lot of the reader questions were answered in passing anyways.
Many thank yous again to Mr. Riegel for joining us!
- S.Link FM Episode 11: EVO 2013 - The Thirst Is Real
Description: The annual EVO Championship Tournament in Las Vegas is the grandest stage of them all for fighting games, and this year Persona 4: Arena was able to take center stage. In the quest to solidify S.Link FM as a Top Tier™ show, we've once again sought the assistance of the legendary Dacidbro, who taught us all a great deal on how to quench the thirst that was all to present at EVO 2013. Well known streamer and tournament organizer Logic Hole was also kind enough to join this weeks show as well. Finally Armada and MoTheHawk tell us all about how they fared in the P4: A tournament. This was probably our funniest show yet, and by the end you too will be a believer in BananAmerica.

Thanks to Armada for helping with the OT.
