    Sorry to see you go, but that's a decision that you have to make for yourself. I'm not saying this as a shill for my own thing, but I enjoy the format we have. 2-3 "segments" and a good conversational tone. It mirrors the couple of other shows that I listen to over anything else on my podcast list. It's like you're just a wallflower with some friends having a conversation on what interests them. I couldn't care less about wrestling, but I enjoy hearing Chris and Seth's enthusiasm about it. But to each their own. I hope you find happiness in another podcast.

    I love the wrestling talk, cuz I love wrestling, but understand that other people might not. And sure, they randomly go all over the place sometimes, but it's generally funny, in my opinion. There's definitely also the fast forward option. I tend to listen to the off topic toys at the end on 1.5 speed, cuz I'm not always interested in rider belts, amibos or glyos things, but if I hear something that interests me, I can slow it down and rewind a bit.


    as far as the Wave 2 not showing up in europe, I'm wondering if it's something where U.S. sales were so good that Hasbro needed more stock for retailers and pulled inventory from wherever they could. I know we've heard of stuff like that in the past, so maybe that's an explanation. Still a super drag for the overseas friends.

    Edit: Dusty Rhodes was one of the best on the mic, easily. And he made things work, like the polka dots. Rumor has it Vince McMahon did that as a way to belittle Dusty when he jumped to WWF, but Dusty made it work. RIP Dusty.

    I was dying with the off-topic talk at the beginning of the show, while Vangelus screams in the edited background :lol 

    The off-topic stuff isn't for everyone, that's fine. I enjoy this show because it's a conversation piece rather than a strict talking of Transformers news and topics (I primarily listen for that reason though). When I listen I feel like I'm at a convention with all of the conversations going on, it's the same effect.

    To each their own, I personally hope you guys continue your nonsense ways.

    YES! hysterical.

    Same here... and uh, does anyone else find themselves talking back to the podcast when they ask a question, or get stumped? Like this episode, the Michael Keaton thing, I kept saying it over and over again, and then realized they can't hear me... so, anyone else? or am I the only weirdo here...

    Yup. I do the same thing. I even clap sometimes when I am listening and they say something I am totally in agreement on.

    I love it so much when future Vangelus comes back to yell with futility. :lol  Unless I'm much mistaken, he's done it a few time before? Regardless, it had me in tears laughing. :lol  Keep up the great work guys!

    I do that listing to other shows and when we get stuck like that ourselves in my back of my head I know people are screaming whatever it is we are stumped on and it makes me more flustered.

    I love the off-topic talk. Maybe it would help if it were edited in such a way that any off-topic chatter would be put at the end of the recording, though this would interfere with the flow of the conversation methinks.
