S12E2: Dude Where's My T-Cog?

This week we cover two episodes...technically. One of them is a clip show with an epilogue to the previous episode attached to it. Look, the budget demanded it, alright? This datatrack contains discussion of the following topics; Sylas' gaming setup, Nemesis Prime as an evolving concept, Steven Spielberg's Duel, surprising Twin Peaks connections, the purpose of clip shows, the Ernie Hudson appreciation hour, and some terrible boss stories.

Prime keeps the momentum rolling with two more episodes of action, intrigue, betrayal, and murder. RIP Breakdown, you may have been tough, but even you can't fight budgetary constraints. This datatrack contains discussion of the following topics; the late great Tony Todd, Seaspray the wrecker, Megatron being an actual menacing villain for once, Ragebaiting My Fat Breakdown Part 20 (Final), Airachnid's femdom powers, the nadir of Starscream's horrible week, and Megatron's insistence on having a weird psychosexual tension with his second in command.

Prime season 2 keeps on rolling with the excellent two part story "Operation Bumblebee". Has anyone noticed that this show is pretty good? This datatrack contains discussion of the following topics; Starscream's continued slide into loserdom, well written human characters, getting your kidney stolen by Clancy Brown, team ups where nobody likes each other, Starscream's snatched waist, Optimus' hands being too big for Ratchet's insides, and the flawed disability allegories of the early 2010s.

After two years of being away, we are finally returning to Jasper, Nevada. Transformers Prime season 2 kicks off with a banger of a three part premier, full of intrigue and character drama and high stakes action. You know, the stuff that didn't exist back in the 80s. This datatrack contains discussion of the following topics; Peter Cullen's performance as Orion Pax, Soundwave's aura farming capabilities, Megatron's inexpert gaslighting techniques, Optimus' love of endangering children, Starscream being pathetic while still maintaining his menace, and how nice it is to have normal human characters again.

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.

Normally we'd say B.O.T. has to be seen to be believed, but it sucks to watch, so I guess take our word for it. This datatrack contains discussion of the following topics; cosplaying as the enemy, Starscream's high perception, ideas with no justification, the worst humans in the entire franchise, poor Combiner booking, GEARS???, and just...everything about B.O.T. Everything. Argh. Noise Space | Discord | Patreon This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

I'm going to be frank with everyone; at least 10 minutes of this episode is dedicated to a running bit about the Aerialbots jacking off on the Statue of Liberty. I'm sorry. This datatrack contains discussion of the following; highly illegal hats, classic 80s racism, the world's fakest race, Wildrider slamming into a mountain headfirst, Starscream's gayer than usual behavior, Superion giving Lady Liberty a pearl necklace, the politics of giving an alien robot a scientific research award, Megatron's sicko interests rearing their head once more, and how much fun the Stunticons are.

Now look I know you THOUGHT you knew how Transformers were made, considering how they've built like 10 guys on Earth with no extra steps, but we didn't know about the big glowing god orb before.
