Podcast: Stasis Pod

It’s been a long time since we’ve had an episode that revolved entirely around Cheetor being an idiot, but everyone’s second-least-favorite kid-appeal character is back to ruining everything again!

But when Cheetor tries to take down Megatron’s sweet evil device all by himself, will he succeed in anything but getting himself killed? Did the Maximals learn to aim from COBRA? And will Jen ever move past them misusing computer terms? Join us for the onset of robot puberty in Feral Scream pt. 1!

And can Megatron’s unrequited boner for Dinobot get any creepier? (Spoilers: Actually, yes.) Join us as Stasis Pod checks out the Cutting Edge!
