Super Nuclear Presents
Remember the cartoons you loved as a kid? Do you, like us, remember mid-2000s Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network with a mix of fondness and terror – or, if you don't, do you want to know what the fuss was about? Join Mary, David, and Ben as we revisit the cartoons that shaped us in an episode-by-episode deep dive, as well as the Internet fan culture as it was then and is now. How do these nostalgic shows hold up? What do we think of them now, as not kids but sad adults? How has the zeitgeist and Internet following evolved along with us? We set out to answer these questions and also to be incredib...

TUR #20 - Molly Go Down The Hooooole 30.05.2020 1:43:01
This episode was originally published on February 18th, 2020. === Remember last week, when Ben asked if any racer could catch up to Sul at this point? Well, in this episode we see how that particular conundrum is resolved! Oh, and Mary has the art book now, so expect a double dose of trivia! (But not all of it. Support Savin and buy the book yourselves, ya freeloaders.) Loud noise warning at 1:41:...
TUR #19 - We Are All Made of Oban-Stuff 30.05.2020 2:04:36
This episode was originally published on February 11, 2020. === Has it ever occurred to you that our galaxy is literally named after a streak of boob juice? No? You wish we hadn't put the thought into your head, you say? Welp, too late now. Here's a palate cleanser: we can't figure out whether the king of Nourasia has an impressive beard or impressive ear hair. Wait, that's not any better, is it?...
TUR #18 - Penny For Your Thoughts? (feat. Matt of Avana Music!) 27.05.2020 1:53:23
This episode was originally published on February 5th, 2020. === In this episode, we introduce our special guest Matt of Avana Music to Seagulls, the second greatest piece of music ever written. It's very apropos, since Ben says "Hey man, stop thant bangin'!" when Mike decides to play with the kitchen cabinet doors. Also, we ponder whether it's okay to show a bug vagina on the Disney Channel as lo...
TUR #17 - D*uche From Beyond the Stars 26.05.2020 1:42:09
This episode was originally published on January 29th, 2020. === David and Mary's origin story is revealed at last! Learn the thrilling tale of how a screenshot from this episode resulted in hours and hours of Ben-revolting shmoopiness. But it's not all butterfly kisses. It's also Sonic references, jokes about crabs doing drugs, and the movie Meet Dave. Oh, and Don finally finds out Molly is his d...
TUR #16 - Set Phasers to Skun 23.05.2020 1:48:13
This episode was originally published on January 21st, 2020. === Tensions run high as the Super Nuclear Group disagrees about whether it's good and cool that the Earth Team keeps getting their asses kicked so damn much. Is it a nice change of pace after so many kids' shows where the heroes are basically guaranteed to win? Or is it just a huge heckin' bummer that makes you want to stop watching, le...
TUR #15 - More Like Lord FARTER 22.05.2020 1:36:49
This episode was originally published on January 14th, 2020. === Oban is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. You may think it's a long way down the road to Alwas, but that's just peanuts to Oban. Of course, every sci-fi adventure needs a good old-fashioned space pirate, and Lord Furter is here to scratch that itch. perhaps with his tongue. Of course, he's als...
TUR 14 - I Regret To Inform You It Is Time for Crab 21.05.2020 1:51:21
This episode was originally published on January 8th, 2020. === If you're one of the (many, many) people who watched this show and thought, 'This is pretty good, but it'd be even better if there were some lesbian space bikers,' then boy howdy are you going to like this episode. And not only that, there is also a preposterously large eyeball! And a Crog with more ears than most things with ears typ...
TUR Season Break - The Ship Hole 19.05.2020 1:27:21
This episode was originally published on December 31st, 2019. === Happy almost New Year, everyone! Join us for our first-ever Ship Hole, the gluten-free Rec Room alternative where we consider the SNA, discuss Molly Star-Racer (the three-minute Oban pilot), drop hot factz from the art book, and have silly fun with Pokémon teams! === Click here to watch Oban Star Racers' pilot, Molly Star-Racer! (Mi...
TUR #13 - A Hairy Egg in This Trying Time 19.05.2020 1:52:43
This episode was originally published on December 24th, 2019. === In this episode, Ben is made privy to several revelations that Mary and David spent the past couple of months desperately trying not to blurt out (exhale, guys!). The Alwas Cycle is finally over, and that means that next week, Rec Room-style silliness takes over with the debut episode of The Ship Hole! Please enjoy some choice jokes...
TUR #12 - The Eye of XANA(letto) 16.05.2020 1:34:57
This episode was originally published on December 18th, 2019. === On this episode, we take a break from racing to follow Stan and Koji (or is it Koji and Stan?) as they bum about trying to collect parts for the Arrow. Thankfully, Flint and Marcel are there to help, because apparently there's honor in helping the people who beat you beat other people even harder? I dunno man, European sports cultur...
TUR #11 - Helmet Yes, Pants No (feat. Bfahome!) 15.05.2020 2:11:40
This episode was originally published on December 10th, 2019. === Join Mary, David, Ben, and our new BFF Gabe, a guest who effortlessly manages to be funnier than the main trio combined (so, exactly like every other guest we've ever had) as we discuss Molly's showdown against Spirit, the spoopy space drow who may or may not have killed her mother. Also starring: hot pizza opinions, Turbo Teen, Dav...
TUR #10 - Best of Rush 13.05.2020 1:58:10
This episode was originally published on November 27th, 2019 === Our journey through the gallery of science-fictiony Tolkien creatures continues with Rush, the space dwarf to the Crogs' space orcs and the Norasians' space elves. Unfortunately, the bit where we rank them all based on sex appeal was cut for time. Instead we reminisce about the Night of the Thwomp and the gamer vs. furry war. Featuri...
TUR #9 - How Many Levels of Teen Are You On? 12.05.2020 1:44:23
This episode was originally published on November 19, 2019. === Hey, did you hear about this Super Racer guy? They say he has an eight pack, and massive balls of solid granite. At least, according to our good buddy Satis - and did you know the two of them have never been photographed together? Passing strange isn't it. And if that's not enough silly B.S. for you, let us tell you about the time Dav...
TUR #8 - XTra Spicy Twilight 08.05.2020 1:33:28
This episode was originally posted on November 12th, 2019. === Join Mary, David, and Ben as they dive into the anemic but nonetheless fascinating world of Oban Star-Racers merch, squabble over the exact meaning of the word 'eboy,' and wonder who the hell wants to smell like something called sandalwood. Meanwhile, join Molly as she dives into a hole from which there is no resurfacing: being hot for...
TUR #7 - These Trident Blades Aren't Just for Attracting Mates 07.05.2020 1:39:40
This episode was originally posted on November 3rd, 2019. === Conflict abounds on this week's Ultimate Reprise as Molly races against the Crog representative, Toros, whose star-racer's spinning trident blades are definitely not for just attracting mates. Meanwhile, Ben shows his true colors by professing a preference for Molly/Aikka, completely rebuking both Jordan and David. And all three of your...
TUR #6 - Para-Dice Was Here, Molly is a Loser! 06.05.2020 1:49:35
This episode was originally published on October 22, 2019. Also, to get the show uploaded in time, TUR will be posting four times a week! === Get ready for the most anime-tastic episode of Oban as Molly races a smug robot catgirl who controls her ship by playing DDR. Mary says she sucks, David says she's a lovable rapscallion. Which of us is correct? Tune in and give us YOUR take! (Keep in mind th...
TUR #5 - The Terrible Man Toots His Terrible Flute 05.05.2020 1:46:29
This episode was originally posted on October 17th, 2019. === In this episode, shit gets dark as one character is forced to deal with a debilitating illness and the very real possibility that he'll never again be able to do the thing he loves most. It's handled with tact and care, and it's one of the things that make this show so grown-up for its demographic. There's also a space Olmec that flies...
TUR #4 - The Case of the Space Elf 02.05.2020 1:47:34
This episode was originally released on October 7th, 2019. === If you've been watching Oban Star-Racers and thinking, 'Gee, this show is pretty great, but it could use more children in bar fights,' episode four is here to scratch your itch. Molly and Jordan throw down with Grooor, by this point firmly established as the Yosemite Sam of space. Aikka also gets involved, but only after getting crunk...
TUR #3 - Good Golly, Miss Molly 30.04.2020 1:45:18
This episode was originally published on September 24th, 2019. === With Rick out of commission, it's time for Molly to fly the Arrow to victory against Grooor! There's just one problem: she is babey. And Disney's standards and practices won't let her say the f*ck word. Luckily, your humble hosts are unbound by the gripping claw of the Mouse. (If the Disney corporation is interested in purchasing t...
TUR #2 - Obama chuckled. "You mean the Ultimate Prize?" 28.04.2020 1:55:54
This episode was originally posted on September 17th, 2019. === Molly (aka Eva) follows her dad to the planet Alwas, only to realize that, even in the far reaches of space, the patriarchy is alive and well. On the other hand, she also discovers that aliens are surprisingly smoochable! Will Ben be led astray by the siren song of Molly/Aikka shippery, or stay on the righteous path of Molly/Jordan l...

The Ultimate Reprise #1 - Doctor, Doctor, Our Heroine Has No Nose! 10.09.2019 1:41:59
Welcome, friends old and new, to the first episode of The Ultimate Reprise: Earth's only podcast about Oban Star Racers!
