EP 54: TRANSFORM... AND ROLL OUT (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We pay tribute to the late, great Peter Cullen, the voice of Optimus Prime, who sadly passed away last month. This special edition of The Rest is Giant Robots takes a look back at the stellar career of Peter Cullen, assessing the simply massive impact he made on TRANSFORMERS (and its fandom) as a whole. From personal recollections to just gushing admiration for his versatility and larger-than-life persona, we respectfully bow our heads say "Roll Out" one final time to this true legend. For more
EP 52: BLOCKBUSTER BUSTERS (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's a movie special, as we round-up a herd of long, hot summer (emphasis on the 'long') blockbusters and put 'em out to pasture. We spill the beans on Disclosure Day, bring it home on The Odyssey, and feel all morning-after-ish coming out of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Do these big ticket, and big run-time, blockbusters get short shrift or a long RIGR love letter? Only way to find out is to tune in, and check out.

EP 51: THE MORNING AFTER THE LOCKDOWN BEFORE (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The vaguely chronological recap of our careers enters 2021, and that strange finding-your-feet period after furloughs and social distancing.

Plus a few strange ones that fall into none of those categories. Useful links
EP50: LAST STAND OF THE FECKERS (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We're 50! Another millstone... sorry, milestone is reached, with two top-notch TRANSFORMERS guests to boot. And they said it wouldn't last. We're joined by writer extraordinaire James Roberts (More Than Meets The Eye, Lost Light) and writer/artist Nick Roche (Last Stand of the Wreckers, More Than Meets The Eye), who take us back to their childhood (in TRANSFORMERS terms anyway), their experiences of TF fandom, and their pro starters for ten. Me, James and Andrew squeeze a few words in here and t
EP49: INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Our reboot of Wildfur's The Engine: Industrial Strength is back on the table, and we show our hands (a bit) with some teaser chat about the project. Wildman and Furman - back together! (Were we ever apart?) Our co-created motion comic is getting a fresh coat of paint this year, reimagined somewhat and re-delivered - via Kickstarter - to you, our wonderful audience. We chat about that, our appearance at the upcoming 10th anniversary TFNation, and our bumper-sized, guest-laden 50th RIGR. Can you h
