Stasis Pod Episode #270: Spellbound
Stasis Pod Episode #269: A Virtual Disaster
It’s a snow day in Griffin Rock, and — once the mortal peril required to start the episode is out of the way — everyone is staying inside where it’s safe, so Cody takes Blades to the Hall of Inspiration to try out a new virtual reality game. But when the building gets hit by lightning, the game malfunctions, trapping them inside until they can finish it! Can Blades overcome his fear of everything and make it to the end, or will he take an arrow to the knee? If they die in the game, WILL THEY DIE FOR REAL? And wait, All Your Base is HOW OLD!? Join us this week for “A Virtual Disaster”!
Stasis Pod Episode #268: Tip of the Iceberg
A mysterious iceberg shows up off he coast of Griffin Rock… but this iceberg is more than meets the eye! (Sorry not sorry.) What’s at the heart of this floating chunk of ice, and more importantly, who else is after it? What ties does it have to the Burns Family? Can the Rescue Bots keep the people on the island ferry safe? AND WHY WOULD YOU TRY TO TAKE A CLEARLY HAUNTED PORTRAIT, CODY!? Join us this week for “Tip of the Iceberg”!

Stasis Pod Episode #267: One for the Ages
We’re back in full Terrible Science mode here on Rescue Bots! With the Chief sidelined by the flu, can Cody step up with his large grown adult legs and help his siblings recover the other half of the machine so he can go back to normal?

Stasis Pod Episode #266: Sky Forest
The new Sky Forest Frankie designs for Griffin Rock’s youth inventor competition will be an amazing tourist attraction — when it finally grows in a decade or two. But Mayor Luskey can’t wait that long, and there’s a convenient stockpile of rapid growth formula in the Best Left Forgotten section of the Hall of Inspiration! What could possibly go wrong? Can Cody forgive Frankie for beating his water-spraying firefighting suit in the competition? And does Huxley Prescott seriously have nothing better to do than get children to fight each other?

Iacon Underground Radio – Episode 88 – Are We Stoner Culture Now?
We return from a long hiatus to discuss the Hasbro Pulse Fan Fest, a Masterpiece toy for an Autobot so forgettable it kind of became his thing, and sexy lady robot toys!
Stasis Pod Episode #265: Road Trip
Welcome back to Griffin Rock — where the Autobots are still in training, the bears are weirdly aggressive, and 99% of their problems are caused by Science! When we last saw the Rescue Bots, they’d picked up a giant Mobile HQ from an evil alternate present, but before they can worry about whether Griffin Rock has the road infrastructure to handle a truck large enough to be driven by another truck, it’s whisked away by Doc Greene’s new teleportation ray — and Cody along with it! Can they get it under control before anything too disastrous happens? Will Kade get eaten by a bear? Why would you make a teleportation gun that just sends things random places!? And what IS hummus, anyway? Join us this week for a Rescue Bots “Road Trip”!
Stasis Pod Episode #264: Robots in Disguise Shorts
Like Transformers Animated, Robots in Disguise had a few digital shorts released online: first a handful of funny standalone episodes, then a series about Drift, Fracture, and their respective Mini-Cons! Will Bumblebee ever come up with a satisfying catchphrase? Could Denny maybe use a napkin? And can either side convince the adorable but destructive Cyclone Mini-Cons to join them? Join us this week as we discuss the Robots in Disguise shorts!
Never seen them? They’re all on YouTube with a handy playlist right here!
Stasis Pod Episode #263: The Bots Master: “Enter the Ninjzz”
We’re saying goodbye to the Bee Team for a bit, but before we check back in on the Autobots of Griffin Rock, we’re taking a little diversion to 1993, where bright colors, questionable names, and tortured acronyms rule! After his employers at RM Corp start using his inventions for evil, teenage robotics genius Ziv Zulander goes underground to fight against his old boss with his homemade BOYZZ — and this time it’s up to his newest invention, Ninjzz, to save him when he’s captured by Dr. Hiss and Lady Frenzy! How many Beast Wars alums can we spot in the cast? Was “Nin-jizz” as bad a name in 1993 as it is now? What robot from this series had an even more unfortunate name? And how much time will we actually spend talking about the movie “Zulander”? Join us this week for The Bots Master’s “Enter the Ninjzz”!
