ACen is almost here! That’s right! Anime Central is almost here, and we’ve got a lot of big updates to bring you. In this episode, we talk about the importance of getting registered before the con versus at-con registration. We run down all the major announcements ACen has made since our last episode. Lastly, in our interview segment for this episode, we speak to Jesica Ward-Schmidt about the many roles she takes on in the organization and the challenges she and her teams have faced to bring this year’s ACen home! It’s our last episode before the con so let’s build the hype!
