Zords With Friends : A Power Rangers Podcast

 Rita's ally Madame Woe mistakes Marge, Billy's new girl, for a Ranger and captures her. The actual Rangers come to her rescue, but can they save her, or will Billy remain dateless for the upcoming dance? And also, like, will she die? Bill and Joey take on this classic epsidoe featuriing some excellent Super Sentai footage and equally terrible American Ranger footage. You won't wanna miss this. 

Trini brings her favorite doll named Mr. Ticklesneezer, to Angel Grove High for Hobby Week. Ticklesneezer goes around shrinking everything, from buildings to trains, even Billy and Trini, and collecting them in bottles. Bill and Joey break down this misunderstood villain in this weeks episode and lear about the power of friendship along the way. Also WTF is there a Hobby Week at a High School for?

Kimberly and Trini become "big sisters" to a mischievous little girl named Maria. Also there are eggs involved. Again.... Bill and Joey crack the case of the Power Eggs and find out whether or not Chunky Chicken is an all time Ranger villain. 

Time to dance in Angel Grove. The Rangers gather to boogie down on the dangerous Gnarly Gnome before he takes over the children in Kim's class. Bill and Joey try to make sense of this insane episode featuring some of the worst scenes in all of Power Rangers. Buckle up!

If you didn't think Jason was hunky before, just wait until you watch this episode. Hes got the guns out and hes sweating hard at the pump bench. ooh lah lah! Bill and Joey try not to sweat too much while watching this crazy episode featuring a classic villain and some nutty Ranger hijinx. 

Have you and your friends ever tried to clean up your local industrial waste dump? No?! You inconsiderate dweeb! Luckily, the Rangers are all about cleaning up goo in this early episode. Bill and Joey team up to talk about the eco-Rangers and their struggles to beat the classic Minotaur. We also see, for the first time, some sexy shiny new weapons. 

Season 5! We are back. And we are back with some season 1 episodes that we have missed the first time around. In this high octane thrillfest, Jason climbs some rope, Trini is afraid of everything and Billy says words that make your mind hurt. Bill and Joey break down the second episode ever of Power Rangers and get chilled to their BONES. 

Joey and Bill climb out from their candy comas to talk about a classic Halloween Ranger episode. Join them as they chat about bobbing for apples in the age of Covid, Tommy and his cringe-ness and naming your kid Karen. There are plenty of treats and maybe a few tricks in this pre-season 5 episode.

In this special episode, Bill and Joey take a break from planning season 5 and take a trip down nostalgia lane with the Netflix one-off episode, Power Rangers: Once and Always. Does this 30 year anniversery story fall hard on its face or wow us and bring the classic Rangers into the future? Well.... it kind of does both.

When the Power Rangers franchise announced a reboot of the original 5 and a movie was coming out, everyone who loved this fandom was excited. Big names were involved, the budget was bigger and the thought was that they could really do this franchise justice. The product that was delivered wasn’t bad by any stretch but it did leave us with a bad taste in our mouths. Bill and Joey have assembled a p...

David J. Fielding, the actor who plays the face of Zordon and voiced him for much of Season 1 joins the podcast to talk about his time playing our favorite space wizard. David not only talks about his time with the Rangers, but also his experiences with acting, his upbringing and his future projects as well as his current ones. Bill and Joey ask him all the essential questions, such as who would w...

An episode we never wanted to do. JDF has died and we are mourning him in this episode but also sharing our favorite moments and talking about the amazing life he had and the influence he had on all of us. Bill and Joey are joined by Joe, the co-creator of Zords With Friends, as he returns to share his thoughts on our favorite Ranger. Rest in peace, JDF.

TOMMY IS BACK! He didn’t go anywhere but after being neutered all season, he is finally back in the lead with some fun emotions and scenes. Bill and Joey order some “Indigestion Inducers” in this week's episode and try to finish it before it ends. If you like food, you will love this episode featuring the second best food eating monster behind the legendary Pudgy Pig.

Now, it is the REAL end of an era. One of the OG Power Rangers is leaving. Without spoiling, we are sure you can guess who it is and who is replacing them but for the sake of Podcast teases, you will just have to listen to find out! Bill and Joey dig deep into the story of this Power transfer and reflect on the legend that is leaving us.

It is the end of an era… that lasted like 20 some odd episodes? That’s right, the Ninja Zords are no more. This three part arc shows how the Rangers get their new Zords and plant some more seeds for the things to come. Bill and Joey pilot the Falconzord on its last flight through Angel Grove and breakdown these fun episodes. Zedd fans will be pleased with these ones.

Here kitty, kitty. After finding a random cat in the park and not taking it for rabie shots or anything, the Rangers find themselves in the middle of Rita and Zedds evil plan involving a girl named Kat who can turn into a cat. It gets hard to follow with all these cats but Bill and Joey break down this two part episode for you. Get you scratching posts ready because Kat is not going anywhere.

It is Christmas time in Angel Grove and everyone is in the holiday spirit except for Zedd… and Bill. Bill does not like Christmas episodes no matter how many times Joey forces him to watch. The Rangers have to save Santa in this episode, and by extension Christmas. It is an episode that will forever lay in Bill’s mind as one of the worst. You need to hear what he says about it. THEY DON'T”T EVEN M...

Love is in the air and Rita and Zedd are heading on a second honeymoon. This causes Rito and Goldar to be left in charge, and you can guess how things go there. After zapping most of Angel Grove with a love potion, the baddies realize that Zedd himself is under one! Bill and Joey breakdown this rare episode in which the main plot is a Zedd and Rita story instead of a Ranger story.

It is football season in Angel Grove and the starting Quarterback has bad grades. Who woulda thunk it?! In all fairness, his bad grades are caused by something he can’t control and he does seek help to fix that in this week's good feeling moment. But before that, the Rangers line up against the evil Centiback and play the game of their lives to stop the gridiron baddy. Joey and Bill put on their p...

You ever wonder what it would be like to switch places with your teacher for a day? No? You would rather stay a kid? Yeah, no shit. This episode that Bill and Joey stumbled upon this week features Rocky and an incredibly stern (and buff) Chemistry teacher switching places for the day. Once Rita and the guys get their hands on the teacher all hell breaks loose. Hope you like liquified ranger juice,...

This week Joey and Bill turn up the lights and find the power within themselves to talk about this ridiculous episode. Rita and the guys are lantern shopping at Target and nothing matches the upholstery. Luckily, Billy has a friend who collects random lanterns and hangs out in a park. This may be an oversimplification of the plot, but it is pretty accurate nonetheless. Things get wacky.

Bill and Joey return this week to finish off the Ninja Quest arc and they are tired from traipsing through the Desert of Despair. They fought the Tengas, braved the exploding rocks, escaped the quicksand, found the secret entrance, opened the portal, laughed at Ninjor, Scowled at Rito Revolto, piloted the Ninja Zords and returned in time to give you this brand new episode. Ernie, better give them...

Where were you when you found out the 1995 Power Rangers movie was a LIE?! For us it was when we saw this 4 episode mini-arc. The rangers get their new powers in uninspiring fashion in this new reimagining of the superior blockbuster movie. But hey, at least we got Ninjor! Join Bill and Joey as they thumb through the first 2 episodes of Ninja Quest!

It is always good to go in the backdoor. The season premier of Zords recaps this backdoor pilot of the next Saban show, Masked Rider, and it is just as bad as it sounds. Join Bill and his new Co-host Joey explore this failed attempt to bring together two series. Also, if you have never heard of a Cogwart before, we promise you will be sick of them by the time this episode ends.

The Season 3 Finale is here and it is spectacular. Bill and his returning guest host Eskra tackle the Turbo Movie and all of its campy glory. This is the longest episode of the podcast mainly because the guys go off on this movie. They delve into the renewed rivalry between Jason and Tommy, lament the disaster that is Justin and ogle over Divatox’s massive cleavage!
