Superhuman Samurai Syber Pod Episode 6: Contact
The Gridman Alliance kids go their separate ways for the day, but an episode with no kaiju fight doesn’t mean they’re safe! Utsumi runs into Shinjo at a book store and gets grilled on his friend Yuta, Rikka gives Anti some special dogs and a bath, and a familiar kaiju child shows Yuta that their city is more than meets the eye! We’re joined this week by special guest PatzPrime from The Cockpit podcast as we talk stalky friends, Starbows frappuccinos, and kaiju lineage in episode 6, “Contact”!

Stasis Pod Episode 181: New Recruit
The Autobots find an orphaned kitten Autobot cadet in a crashed Decepticon escape pod, but between their trust issues and their old dog’s Bulkhead’s fear he’s being replaced, can Smokescreen convince them to keep him? What if he just happens to know a lot about the Iacon artifact database? Did it seriously take them until halfway through season 2 to get a Hot Rod/Hot Shot character? And how much longer will it take him to get a toy? Join us this week as the Autobots get a “New Recruit”!

Stasis Pod Episode 180: Out of the Past
As Miko tries to come to terms with Bulkhead’s long road to recovery, Arcee shares the story of how she met Cliffjumper — and reminds her that among the Autobots, they all understand what she’s going through. But who can fill The Rock’s shoes for a flashback episode? Did they really make a new character model just for this episode? And how does Shockwave always manage to look exactly the same? Join us this week for “Out of the Past”!

Stasis Pod Episode 178: Turbo Teen: Dark Rider and the Wolves of Doom
Will Bulkhead survive? Guess you’ll have to wait to find out, because surprise! It’s April Fool’s!
The same 1984 fall TV season that brought us Transformers also brought us another show about someone turning into a car — horribly, grotesquely turning into a car, in a way no child at the time would ever unsee. This week we take a look at Turbo Teen, his Frank Welker-voiced nemesis, his also-Frank Welker-voiced dog, and the many, many, way too many times an episode he transforms into a car and back! Join us this April Fool’s for “Dark Rider and the Wolves of Doom”!
