Good Morning Benders and Non-Benders alike – SKKKKRRRTT! – Hello free non-benders of Republic City. Welcome to The Republic City Dispatch, a revolutionary radio programme covering Nickelodeon’s Legend of Korra series. This week on “The Aftermath,” Too long have the weak willed metal-benders under Chief Beifong held down the bending population. Too long have we falsely placed our hope in The Avatar. We promise you a new world, and Equal world, where even the most vicious benders can be met in combat by our technology. And now, the voices of the revolution, Matt, Da7e and Devindra!

Hosted by Devindra Hardawar of the /Filmcast and Da7e and Matt Patches of Operation Kino.

Let’s flash back to the official press materials for The Legend Of Korra to learn more about our new characters this week.

Hiroshi Sato (Male, non-bender)
A barrel-chested businessman with a big personality, Hiroshi Sato’s family lineage extends back to the first Fire Nation colonists.   He was born to a poor family from the Dragon Flats district.  A kid with big dreams, Hiroshi worked from a very young age to help support his family.  When he was 18, he convinced a wealthy banker to invest in the idea of automobiles for the common man.  Before long, he was churning out Satomobiles in his first Future Industries factory.  By the time he was 25, the ingenious industrialist had made his first million yuans.

Asami Sato (Female, non-bender)
As the daughter of Hiroshi Sato, Asami has lived a life of luxury but don’t let her fancy clothes and polite manners fool you – Asami has a tough side too.   She’s an expert driver and isn’t afraid to mix it up on the racetrack.  Asami has also had the best self-defense training money can buy.   She’s a big fan of Pro-bending and goes to every match.
