Happy Con season, folks! We’ve got a double convention recap for you. First up, Kate and Aaron visit E3 at the Los Angeles Convention Center and talk about videogames and free stuff for you gamers out there. While we are not a videogame focused podcast, we do enjoy playing videogames quite a bit. Not a lot of cosplay there being an industry event, but still very enjoyable. Also, we visit AM^2 at the Anaheim Convention Center. While the con itself is small, their hearts are in the right place. Hear about what we liked and what we didn’t like, along with what our hope is for the future of AM^2. We also have a surprisingly lengthy AM^2 Masquerade talk even though they only had 13 entries. And Dennis was still ill-prepared due to both his camera batteries dying. Boo-urns. We got new hardware to make this podcast better: both a new camera and a new computer. Let us know how you like the new format for Cosplay Jam. Have a listen and follow the links below to watch E3 and AM^2 vids. Episode 18 is a go!

E3 sounded interesting but AM2 sounded like tons of fun especially that brony lounge you guys were talking about. Those artist alley pics looked great. The cosplay pics were the best that One Piece avengers was GENIUS XD!!!
