Equivalent Exchange: A Fullmetal Alchemist Podcast

The Führer leads the raid on Devil’s Nest. Ed is rescued, but Greed doesn’t get past Bradley in the sewers. An incident during the fight enables Al to remember his meeting with The Truth. It doesn’t get him and Ed any closer to their goal of getting their bodies back... but they do leave the raid more suspicious of the military.

Riza runs into an old friend... of ours, not hers... After Roy gets information from that character, Riza, Roy, and Falman become more entwined in the darker goings on in the military.

In the bowels of the military headquarters, the Führer’s true nature is revealed, as he brings the captured son home.

Episode 12: Nothing is impossible | Fullmetal Alchemist chapters 27 & 28

Izumi kicks some goon ass to try to rescue Al from his kidnappers, but leaves at his request to bring back Ed. Greed wants to make a deal—information for information.

Ed runs into his favorite people while trying to take his annual state alchemist exam at the South HQ. The Führer & Armstrong follow him back to Dublith to try to convince his teacher to join the military.

Once back in Dublith, Izumi gives Ed the deets about Al (perhaps a little too close to the Führer’s earshot), and Ed goes to confront Al’s captors.

Episode 14: There’s something not right about this country | Fullmetal Alchemist chapters 32 & 33

May Chang arrives in Amestris after a long journey across the desert from Xing. Kayal revives her and her teeny tiny panda companion with his father’s lunch, and almost immediately tragedy strikes the mining town. Fortunately May is able to save the miners using Alkahestry—Xing’s version of Alchemy. In Youswell she’s told of Edward Elric—the State Alchemist, and off she goes to find him.

Ed returns to Rush Valley to get his arm repaired. After the catch up with Paninya and requisite beating from Winry, he and Al head into town and find another passed out dude from Xing... and he’s a prince! They revive him at the local pub as well, and he asks if they know anything about... the Philsopher’s Stone. Ed and Al try to leave but are pursued by Ling’s bodyguards, and half the town is destroyed... again.

It turns out literally everyone is heading to Central—even our old friend Scar.

Thank you for listening! ❤️ See you next time!
