Rebels and Robots and Etc.

Fall into this week's episode with our review of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. Can it match the insane energy of the original cartoon? Can it be more memorable than the Michael Bay movies? Can Rachel and Cameron remember what happened since they saw it two days ago? Answers to all of this plus our thoughts on the first trailer for the Star Wars video game Outlaws.

We’re back and so are the Transformers. Rise of the Beasts releases this weekend so roll out with us as we barely survive yet talk for an hour and 20 minutes about the animated movie from 1986 with all of its brain melting animation, wild casting choices, drastic tonal shifts, and ill-fitting pop music. We also recount a story from Cameron’s wedding, Rachel cries over the end of Jedi: Survivor, an...

Everyone knows the sequel is better. Welcome to part 2 of last week’s recording with our friend Caleb where we get stuck in a big hole with “The Pit," want to give “Aau’s song” a big ole hug, rank all nine parts of Visions Vol. 2, and get back to what really matters: Meme Minute, but it’s longer (than a minute) - Meme Parsec; Meme Astrosecond.

It’s a pod of firsts. We have our first guest, friend of the show Caleb, and our first two-part episode. In this week’s first part, get friendly with us as we experience autobot/human love with Transformers G1 “The Girl Who Loved Powerglide” and venture into Indian animation uncanny valley with “The Bandits of Golak."

You’re not seeing (hearing?) double; we’re back again with a lore-heavy episode of Transformers G1 and three shorts from Visions Vol. 2. Get an ear (eye?) full of Rachel reading, Cameron singing, and both of us laughing way too much.

May the 4th be with you for these real droid hours as Rachel shares about Jedi: Survivor so far, Cameron predicts wolves turning into people during the Ahsoka series, and both of us critique the Transformer prequel voice cast. Then we praise the combination of animation and story in the first three episodes of Visions Vol. 2.

It is finally time to make good on the robots part of our name. Fly into 1980’s animated chaos with us as we examine the detailed lips of the new Wheeljack, a special Coachella appearance, and the absolute low-budget cartoon mess that is Transformers “The Key to Vector Sigma”.

This episode is a CATastrophe! Curl up into a cat-loaf and listen to us hiss and howl about if we podcasted in 2013, the chaos of the Mando season finale, and Rachel’s problem with these descriptions.

Join us for a special report on Star Wars Celebration (and all the movies they probably won’t make), a live reaction and (emotional) breakdown of the Ahsoka series trailer, and a speed run recap of the Mandalorians returning to Mandalore (because we were already at an hour of recording by time we started talking about it). Additional bonus features: a Star Wars club music close listen, Cameron’s p...

In an absolute wild episode of the pod with squid Romeo and Juliet, robot racism, and mando JROTC, we find ways around swearing, Rachel learns that parsecs are real, and Cameron runs more jokes into the ground

We’ve made it to the end of Bad Batch season 2 and a new beginning for the mandalorians. Come pass around the talking hammer with us as we gossip about Tech and Phee’s terrible relationship, the Armorer’s political endorsement, and terrible children’s costumes.

Brought to you by Buffalo Wild Wings and Virginia Tech wrestling, on this week’s pod we cast about the new Jedi: Survivor trailer, a clone prison break, the return of Ahmed Best, and an unexpected use of Star Wars in viral marketing.

This week, we take a break from the wars as everyone seems to be taking it nice and slow as the Bad Batch contemplate island life and The Mandalorian gives us look into the life of an ex-Imperial on Coruscant. Also hear us chat about flea market finds, the technical specs of Tie Interceptors, and the hilarity of flying G1 Transformers.

Pull up a floating pod, grab a Wahlburger, drink some Mandalorian living water, and join us for a chat about a special life time achievement for our favorite robot boi, the return of Crosshair (nasty rat man), and a Transformer in Star Wars?

Hey, heeeeey! Double scoop of Star Wars this week with a side of Age of Extinction hate while we chat about dinosaur-sized creatures all-out attack, Mandalorian re-baptism, Babu Frik’s family, and if is this all building to an evil clone saga?

It's time to unionize! Enjoy your mandatory breaktime by listening to us ponder pro-Imperial riots, eating the rich, and a Optimus Prime thirst trap.

This week beasts are rising and the Batch is crossing as we find out Pete Davidson is a Transformer, Tech is bad with kids, and Decepticons can have babies.

Twice the Bad Batch, double the jokes! Real funny stuff this week: the difference between murder and assassination, cyanide capsules, and the mistreatment of war veterans.

We are back after a one-week sick leave to complain about people complaining, admire an ancient cyborg mega giraffe, and try to put out a fire with Wookies.

Cover your ears! Time to talk Kiss Players, Star Wars Saint Nick, why Boba Fett should interrupt The Mandalorian season 3, and M’lady Millegi.

Join us in enjoying our official opening music, discussing the best(?) episode of Bad Batch yet, and relentlessly bullying Crosshair.

In the first episode of this silly weekly chat, get to know Rachel and Cameron, how they became friends, why they watch Star Wars and Transformers every Wednesday, and what they think of the first two episodes of Bad Batch Season 2.
