This week friend of the show Sam joins us to talk about two episodes of Generation 1. The first one is a shockingly competent, world expanding adventure starring an underappreciated character. The other is maybe the worst single episode of G1 we've sat through thus far. In conclusion, Kremzeek is a land of contrasts. This Datatrack contains discussion of the following topics; The Book of Boba Fett, a slur so old timey it barely registers, Bosch, this show having three voice actors, Astrotrain's miserable life, Megatron's horrible son, accents so racist they loop around into being something else, Tokusatsu episode titles, and [INFORMATION WITHHELD TO AVOID GETTING THE DISCORD SUBPOENAED].

Friend of the pod Gigalithic joins your intrepid hosts this week for two more episodes of good old G1 madness.

This Datatrack contains discussion on the following topics; why Seaspray sucks, random character groupings, what happens when a bunch of murderous idiots become invincible, Sunstreaker's interesting proclivities, improperly scored somber endings, Astrotrain listening to Joe Rogan, Cosmos' propensity to get immobilized, organized religion, electric lava, Omega Supreme's miraculous hammerspace, and lezzing out for interplanetary diplomacy.

In a pair of shockingly competent and relatively well-written episodes, all the frustrations the Dinobots have had about being the Autobots' get out of plot free cards finally comes home to roost in a two parter that sees Carly and Spike go to Cybertron to save everyone from a sudden onset of Cybertonium poisoning. But more importantly, Audrey and Mara argue about who has the longer drive to another city within their own state. This datatrack includes discussion of the following topics; quiet quitting, google maps, Carly letting her freak flag fly, Shockwave's no good horrible very bad day, Swoop being the only Dinobot anybody can talk to, sudden lore drops, Sparkplug selling Cybertronian secrets to the state, and what the actual fuck was going on with Blaster and Soundwave at the very start of part one.

This week Argyle from Pod of Greed returns to the show to talk about a trio of extremely stupid episodes. While Microbots is mostly your average 'guys shrink down to go inside another guy' episode of children's animation it does contain one of the best scenes in all of G1 and introduces us to Perceptor. Then we experience the Television equivalent of being hit over the head with a sack of doorknobs for 45 minutes with the infamous two parter Megatron's Master Plan. Included in this Datatrack are discussions of the following topics; Brawn's rampant homophobia, Autobot HR, EVIL brain impulses, macguffins too stupid to come back in legacy media, the Optimus Prime costume suspiciously fitted specifically for Starscream, Optimus obeying circuit courts, Cosmos, Tracks stealing the Lambo Bros' whole schtick, Thrust's cowriting credit, and the unfortunate parallels to our modern, stupid reality. Also sorry about my audio! I unplugged my mic and forgot to readjust my levels so I might go from being too loud to too quiet at some points here. Hopefully I fixed most of the peaking- Mara.

In a particularly Yaoiful pair of episodes, Audrey and Mara debate which couple is better; the sensitive, underappreciated architect and his rotund British doctor? Or the red hot Texan firetruck and the paranoid security chief? This datatrack includes discussion of the following topics; Powerglide's attitude, (probably accidental) character nuance, Starscream being surprisingly loyal (for about 20 minutes), the Construction company that is also a polycule, the public service funding in the G1 universe, Starscream being the world's worst trip sitter, and whatever the fuck the Tunnel Drone is.
