Beast Woes
Season 13, Episode 6
Show notes
https://noisespace.xyz/Well, after a short but eventful 13 episodes, our time with Beast Wars Season 2 has come to an end. Time to reflect on all the crazy plot twists, new characters, iconic moments, and Rattrap innuendos this season of television provided for us. Is it better than the first season? Without a doubt! Are Silverbolt and Blackarachnia T4T? Yes! Why was Ravage Russian all the sudden? We don't know! But what we DO know is what we're covering next...but you won't know until you finish the episode!!

Nissan Pulsar (Untranslatable)
Season 13, Episode 4
Show notes
This episode is a week late because Mara's skull holes got way too full of slime for like a week. Sorry! Anyway, Izzy from The Disapparences of Lydia Fountaine joins us this week for a trio of truly iconic episodes. Silverbolt and Blackarachnia grow closer while being stalked by a Maximal science experiment gone wrong, Dinobot chooses his own fate and makes the ultimate sacrifice for the future, and Silverbolt and Rampage bond with a new damaged protoform with tragic results. Unfortunately we also get some fucked up apes, so who can say whether or not these episodes are good or bad?

https://noisespace.xyz/After two years of being away, we are finally returning to Jasper, Nevada.

It Was Peak
Season 11, Episode 24
Show notes
As we say goodbye to the rotten year of 2025 (good riddance), we must also say goodbye to the greatest season of television ever created. G1 season 2 is an entirely unhinged, nonsensical, at times funny on purpose (but usually not) clusterfuck of a show. It is the true essence and embodiment of Reagan era toy commercial tv in all the best and worst ways. So as we dread the barbaric yearly tradition of crushing thousands of New Yorkers under the Ball, we reminisce about peak, give out some awards, and announce where this podcast's next stop is going to be.
