About this Episode

Steven C. Phillips, Mike Blanchard, and Michael Wilson discuss three episodes of Beast Wars: "Possession," "The Low Road," and "Law Of The Jungle." The crew breaks down Starscream's return, Rhinox's illness, and Tigatron's reaction to the death of his companion.

This is Megatron. This is the glorious Megatron.

And this episode of the Beast Unleashed podcast

features Stephen C. Phillips, Mike Blanchard,

and Michael Wilson. The time has fi - Finally

come to revive Steve Megatron Phillips. Yes,

after I found him buried in the backyard under

very, very light leaves and dirt. But alas, yes.

Now, it begins. Waspinator. Yes, Megatron. Engage

the nanomites. And the machine. Yes. Now, we

will input all of his memories from his dead

carcass and shall clone him a new body. One far

superior that cannot be killed by TFG1 Mike.

All Pecan Court Michael. No. Machine online.

Ha ha ha ha! Yes! Now, input the Transmetal 2

driver! Azurus Megatron! And now, the data disc!

Blast! Turn off that bloody sound! S -s -sal

-magatron! Input is spark. Steve will live again.

Oh, yes. Who shall live again? But out, scourge,

or I will send you to meet your maker. Very well.

And now, the tempest's fury! A spark ignites!

Ha ha ha ha ha! Now Steve is back. How do you

feel? I feel very well, Megatron. Thank you for

bringing me back. Now I will kill everyone! Um,

I think you put the wrong disc in, Waspnator.

That one was meant for Rampage. Switching discs,

Megatron! Now I feel better. Thanks for bringing

me back, Megatron. No problem. Now that you are

back, you can at least set the record straight.

From those fools. Yes. And I will finally get

a guest appearance back in the show. Whereas

the last episode, I was not in it. No. Kill them.

Or actually, now that I've stuttered. I will

kill them. You just follow on as you're podcasting

hosting duties. Yes. Waspinator, let's go. That's

a real smug -a -tron! Well, now that I'm back,

I guess, uh... I'm with the show! And now, your

feature presentation! Hello and welcome to the

world's first ever Beast Wars Beast Machines

review podcast This is the Beast Unleashed podcast

brought to you by the GeekCast radio network

I'm your host EFJ on mic and I'm joined with

Steve Megatron. Hello. Hello. I'm back from the

dead No, you're not and Peek on court Michael

who buried him deep in the backyard or not so

deep in the backyard I am the grave digger No,

Megatron was that as you heard in the preface.

Yes He dug you up. I had to dig the damn thing

to begin with. Yeah, because Blanchard stood

there and pointed. Exactly. Would it kill you

to raise a shovel? I mean, come on, honestly.

I'm an old fat lazy geek. I'm not raising any

damn shovel. I got like seven years on you, and

I'm lazy too. That's why he only got buried under

a foot of dirt and leaves. Well, that's because

he handed you the shovel. He didn't actually

do any digging. He did like at the ceremonies

where they open up buildings and put the first

bit of dirt from the governor. Here, let's stick

my foot in the ground. So today we will be covering

three more episodes of Beast Wars Season 1. Steve,

what have you been up to this week? Or since

you've last done a show for this show? Well,

most certainly not death. Yes, I've gotten to

take time off secondary job. Hopefully get to

quit that soon. And then I have my Batman Beyond

Return of the Joker custom like 90 % done. Oh,

it looks good. Yes. Thank you. Is that all you've

been doing? Podcasting and as you've heard in

the preface being a nerd and yeah, what not?

What have you been up to Mr. Wilson? What? This

is for more information see Megatron. Seems pretty

pissed at not being in the last episode. I really

wanted them to come on and sing the narwhal song.

No. I guess he doesn't like the narwhal song

after all. No, no, no, no, no. Oh, sweet. Hey,

Wasp when he's got it on his CD player. Well,

that's what he put in first instead of my program.

Yeah. Well, you know, no accounting for taste.

Exactly. That's where Wasp's brain went. Swimmin'

in the ocean. Swimmin' in the ocean. No! No!

No! Shut up! Alright, Mr. Wilson, what have you

been up to since two weeks ago when we did the

last show? You know, it's strange, we were talking

off air, like yesterday, and I rattled off like

four or five different things that I've been

doing lately, and right now I can't remember

any of them. But yeah, that's how I've been doing

lately. Yeah, I've been sick for the most part.

I'm still nursing this cold, and I don't want

to bitch and whine too much, but yeah, I'm still

under the weather. A lot better than when I was

when we recorded Toycast 50. Yes. Yeah. I was

kind of crying at that point. And I'm the worst

sick person ever. I just whine and whine and

everyone gets sick of me and basically just leaves

me alone. Would you like some cheese with that

wine? I'd like some wine with that wine. Drunk

bastard. As Starscream would say. As what? I

was waiting for a Starscream impersonation, actually.

As Starscream would say, chirp chirp, chirp chirp.

I was like, is that crickets out here? Crickets,

crickets, crickets. I was going to do a Starscream

respect my authority, but yeah. That'd be a little

too loud. I wouldn't want someone to come in

and hit you in the head with a broom. I don't

want to hit you with a shovel. You can't pick

the damn thing up, sir. Knock off all this damn

tree -hugging hippie crap. Come here, sonny!

That's right, respect my authority! Before I

crap my pants! I loved South Park when it was

actually still good. Maybe before I tried to

do The Simpsons? I haven't watched that in years

either. For me, I've not been doing much. I actually

moved my bedroom furniture around the other day,

which, whatever. You can't pick up a shovel,

but you can pick up a bookcase in your bed. Well,

he had to figure out where the DVDs were going

to go. I leave this wall free for shelving to

put all my toys, and then... That's what the

living room's for. But anyway, what else do I

have to think? I guess I'll be creating my love

den. No. No, no, no. I guest -hosted on Superhero

Time, which is Radio Free Cybertron's... Power

Rangers slash Sentai podcast I'm not really sure

What oh we Kevin and I get to interview Maurice

Lamar's that was really awesome. That's gonna

be a clandestine penny questions. No So as far

as Possession goes no, we're not getting into

possession yet. No, no, not yet. I Hello, don't

you know I have to say now let's get into some

episodes. Oh, sorry. I was feeling a techno moment

there. No, shut up. Well, it's all Steve's fault.

He lost his damn sound. He couldn't hear. Damn

it, Steve. Actually, it just cut out. Are you

going to die repeatedly? That was a micro death.

So it's Steve's own damn fault. But anyway, so

let's get into some episodes. Shut the hell up.

My pants are full. Go find out what's keeping

Waspinator. So there you are. Yes, here I am

at very long last. What happened to your voice?

Allow me to present myself, Air Commander Starscream

of the Deceptive - I saw it myself. The entity

came out of the computer. But you're ancient

history. Ancient? Yes. History? No! What's he

talking about? The Decepticons were our ancestors.

For centuries, they warred with the Autobots.

The ancient ancestors of the Maximals. That war

was lost, Alas! And you were destroyed. It's

written in the Chronicles of Cybertron. and so

it was believed. I fell defending my leader Galvatron

against the most powerful enemy of all, the giant

transformer, Unicron! My exo -structure was destroyed,

but miraculously my spark endured, drifting helplessly

through the depths of space beyond the reach

of time itself! Now that you're here, Air Commander,

what do you want? Why to pledge allegiance to

the glorious Megatron and fight as your loyal

lieutenant? Well, you'll forgive the glorious

Megatron for not melting into a puddle of gratitude.

Tell me, why should I trust you? Because I can

show you how to crush the Maxibles and win the

First up today is possession. Oh god kill me

now Exactly. The original air date was February

3, 1997. It was written by Ian Weir. Lost to

time and space, the disembodied spark of Starscream,

legendary traitor to the Decepticon army and

second in command to the original Megatron, floats

down to the planet's surface and infiltrates

the dark side. During an energon storm, Starscream

takes over the body of Waspinator and immediately

offers his services to Megatron. His goal? the

destruction of the maximals don't don't don't

uh... uh... first notes that i wrote down was

starts him again god damn it about that just

doesn't die i don't best is immortal yeah i see

this this episode didn't make a lick of sense

to me before when i first thought because i didn't

know who the hell starship was And I'd never

seen Generation 1. So when I saw Starscream's

Ghost and Ghost in the Machine, it made sense

to me why Starscream ended up in Beast Wars.

Yeah. Yeah, I guess if you had no idea who Starscream

was, it wouldn't be a very good episode. I still

liked it regardless. I don't know why, but...

Yeah, but like, you know, old school fans, when

they killed off Starscream, or when they killed

off Optimus for that matter... You know, all

you wanted was for Starscream and Optimus to

come back and... You know, finally they shoehorned

him in there in a couple episodes and it was

like the neatest thing ever. Well, and the funny

thing was he possessed somebody just like he

did in Generation 1, Season 3. Yeah. Just kinda

takes over their body. I think this was a...

I smell reused plot line. Yeah, the only difference

between this episode and the G1 episodes where

he took over Scourge and Astrotrain was that

when he was in Scourge in G1, Scourge could actually

talk back. Like, two personalities in one body.

Whereas this, when he took over Waspinator, he

took over Waspinator and just shut Waspinator's

personality down. Freaking p -brain and can you

imagine Starscream arguing with Waspinator? That

wasn't funny to hear though. Waspinator no like,

you're controlling me. Shut up, Trowden! It would

be something very similar, yeah. I don't remember

what scene it was. Cheetah actually hit something,

yay. Hey, I don't remember what scene it was,

but Oh, yeah, that's right the side with you.

That's right. He finally hit one. Yeah, that's

right Says we're starting to somebody's home

video Two guesses who it is. Oh, yeah, that's

right. That's right That was gonna be a Pamela

and Tommy Lee's video good lord Wow, that's really

dating this podcast now. It's going way back

there. Jesus Christ, man, you are old. If you

don't understand, look it up on YouTube. It's

an oldie -but -a -goody. This is very similar

to, you know, young Steve watching TV and not

knowing who Starscream is. For some strange reason,

when you said it's an oldie -but -a -goody, I

want to hear Huey Lewis back in time. One of

the things that pissed me off about these episodes.

I think I've made several notes about it Maybe

I don't remember oh Yeah, right stuff down when

you're pissed off about it well what's pissing

me off is I've kind of got this whole count of

when Either side maximal Predacon whatever transform

without saying their goddamn activation code

Tagatron and Rhinox both do this on a vid -screen.

I think they did. That's why they stopped doing

it. I am transformed later, and then they stopped

doing it after a while. Well, yeah, I know that,

but it's just one of those things where, like,

I can kind of almost forgive it in Beast Machines,

but, and I'll, maybe I can, I don't know, I'll

have to get to that when we get to that, but

here, the way they state it is that it's a technical

thing. that the Maximize Terrorize is an activation

code for them to transform. Yeah, that's what

I thought too. It was an unneeded saying. As

you know, they stopped doing it completely in

Season 2 and 3 for the most part. See, I'm going

to have to wait until I get to those because

since we started the... Well, since we started

the podcast, I've... I've been good and I've

stayed within the parameters of how we record

the episodes and I haven't like gone ahead Well,

actually I did tonight but like I haven't gone

through a whole marathon watch since we're watching

them for this show so Star waspinator scream

splat That was quite possibly my most favorite

explosion of waspinator ever Yeah, I thought

it was strange that You know, even though he's

inhabited by Starscream, Waspinator still gets

a spot moment. And Waspinator's like, Waspinator

have headache in his whole body. I love that

line. This whole body. I love when there's a

big fire in the Predacon base at the beginning

and Megatron's like, quickly. He's like, I'm

okay! He's like, fuck off. I don't care about

you. That's right. We need the ship, not you

dumb. If the ship was broken, I'd tear off your

head and use it for spare parts. I think I've

already grabbed a quote for this episode, but

I may be grabbing another one because I love

- this is my - actually, this is my final note.

I don't know, when I started watching this episode,

there wasn't really a whole lot to write down

for me. I don't know, maybe I just kind of started

just watching it to watch it. I don't know, even

though I'm not a fan of Starscream, this episode

was still very good. But I love Cheetor's twinkle

twinkle little Starscream. And then he's - he's

vowing revenge on him as he's flying away. Yes.

Back into the netherworld. You know I'll come

back! Yeah. I'll be back, even if it takes a

thousand years! I'll be revenge! Yeah, it's like,

don't let the door hit you on the way out, buddy.

You just keep floating away. That's basically

what Primal said, except he used a Terminator

line. Yeah, Astalavista. Yeah, Astalavista Starscream.

Don't float away mad, just float away. Okay,

so... I love the fact that... The Starscream

begins right off the bat, you know, his arrogant

cocky self, and he's like, you're all about before

Megatron even though you're not the one I've,

you know, pissed on and walked away from. And

then Black Ratnik is like, you're a moron. You

know, I know how it really went down. He's just

a dumbass. He doesn't know history. Yeah. And

then, you know, of course Dinobot realizes that

he's a freaking traitor because, well, Dinobot

did it. Yeah. I liked how they showed Unicron

even though the animation glitches were off.

Oh, the planet version, yeah. Yeah, that was

cool. Because it was supposed to be a head, not

a planet. Oh, really? Well, think about it. Season

3, Starscream's ghost. He knocked Unicron after

he acted like he was going to plug him into Cybertron

and then he flew away. Actually, I kind of took

it to mean that in Transformers the movie, instead

of Galvatron tracking him down and blowing him

up, he was trying to push the story that he was

still second in command of Galvatron and died

protecting him from Unicron. That's the way I

thought he was trying to push it. Yeah, I know

what happened He was just trying to make him

believe what he wanted because it would work

to his end Whereas right what really happened?

I can't say yeah, I dumped the original Megatron

out out in the space for scrap backing Yeah,

nuked my ass now That's what I could kind of

threw me for a loop there is you know Starscream

comes back and says Oh, I wasn't really a traitorous

bastard, you know, he's giving this retconned

version of the history and I'm thinking to myself

now Is this what they're gonna stick with is

this with it with you know, is it literally retconning?

Transformers history, you know and then later

on in the episode black arachnid comes out and

says wait a minute, you know Galvatron took you

out because you know, you literally left him

for dead and then Unicron ate him I mean she

knew what was up, but and I'm glad that she made

it known Because otherwise you know who knows

maybe that that bit of history could have ended

up You know as cannon skewered yeah, yeah They've

been known to retcon things before oh, yeah,

and I like how Megatron kind of alludes to the

fact he knows Starscream is you know to his most

loyal of Scorponok but he doesn't you know he

just kind of plays dumb it appears yeah because

he doesn't trust Starscream so maybe he even

knows and he's just you know acting like he can

see what what Starscream can accomplish before

he traitors and then try and kill him then yeah

well I mean it was smart to put his most loyal

lieutenant right next to him keep your enemies

closer yeah That didn't do Scorponok much good.

No. He got blown away by Black Ratnia. Well,

yeah, I think they both hit him at the same time.

Oh, yeah. Well, one hit first and then Black

Ratnia took him out the rest of the way. Yeah.

Notice, no inferno. No? None whatsoever. That's

odd. Okay. It's like he didn't even exist you

see and then you see a razor for like one quick

scene Yeah, yeah, I like how one star scream

took over the the axon that He they bolt primal

to the wall Then did the shittiest job ever and

then and then once the once they went off and

did their own You know one star scream went off

and did his own thing, you know primal breaks

free Goes back to the weapons under the armored

flooring. Yeah, I Thought this back to the stash.

Yeah, he's like it's all going according to plan

Well, it's like what so the only restraints you

have on board are crappy substandard restraints

that anybody can pull out of I mean that doesn't

seem very It's like well, why would we want to

restrain anybody in here? Well, it just tells

you Predacons don't actually know how to do proper

energy engineering. We don't know how to tie

a knot, so. Here, we'll hammer these. We'll hope

that they stay. They need to go back to school

for that shit. That's right. They need to learn

how to do that slip knot. I like how they did

the Decepticon insignia on Waspinator's head

when Starscream was in it. Yeah, that was very,

very cool. See, I don't think I noticed that.

I did, yeah. Well, that was a good like three

minutes where Waspinator and Blackarachnia were

looking at a view screen. And whenever one of

them would talk, they'd kind of turn their head

and look at the other. And, you know, that great

big huge decepticon insignia is right there on

Waspinator's head. I was like, that is cool.

But this was a good episode for quotes. Yes,

very very... Good quotes. Yeah, I mean Megatron

had a lot of good ones, so I'm surprised he hasn't

repeated yet. This one by far is my favorite

of Megatron's. Which one? I'll scream in Black

Arachnia. I'll have both their treacherous hides.

Yes. I'll melt them down and use them for aluminum

siding. Oh yes indeed. I like that one. Use them

for aluminum siding. I like he says, uh, and

thus you were encouraged to keep your beak shut

As he's beaten this out of a pterosaur to the

server cheetor Cheetahs bitching on whining cuz

you know, the excellence been taken over and

he's like I bet one of them's in my room right

now Going through my stuff. I know somebody who

cares. Yeah red, you know what? I was I was I

heard that and I thought you know, that's funny

and Because Rattrap's gonna chime in with, you

know... Here's my rat's ass, Cheetor. Oh no,

wait, Cheetor! You can't have my rat's ass! Because

I don't give a rat's ass a bunch of stuff! He

was like a pun on himself. It's true. Of course,

Rattrap is also the same one that steals Primal's

room. Oh, yeah, we'll get to that. Let's not

go too far into that. Well, I'm not giving anything

away, even though it's not really a spoiler.

Well, no, it's not a spoiler, but yeah, that's

a completely, that's a topic for next time shooting

the show in two weeks. I like this thing, though,

where Primus is asked to love Vista to Starscream

and, you know, flying from Terminator. And then

when he's flying away, he's wearing a pair of

sunglasses on his face, kind of like Schwarzenegger.

Seriously? Yeah, he's wearing it seriously if

you freeze frame it. He's got some lights on.

That is hilarious Yeah, to begin with it was

like thought to be an animation glitch, but I

think it ties more into him saying hasta la vista.

Yeah Yeah, I'll have to go back and look at that

and I used to freeze frame this back when I had

gas because I had nothing better to do so that

I could get the freeze frame of Starscream in

perfect shot, including looking at all the little

glitches in the episode. Yeah. Yeah, I just don't

have that kind of time. It took me, and I'll

mention this in the outro, but what we're going

to do as far as the art for this episode, I'll

mention it in the outro before we close the show

tonight, but it took me 45 minutes to an hour

Going back and forth back and forth back and

forth between the to get that frame exactly right

to get that goddamn picture Huh, you know what

you could have did to make it easier could have

did what's it could have did You could have went

to TF wiki and just snagged that picture right

there Because it's the first picture you see

Oh, well, I didn't even look at the wiki for

these episodes. I just... They would not be any

the wiser. Yeah, I just didn't. I didn't have

time. That's what you get for being a stooge.

Well, I wanted to make sure the fucking computer

was actually gonna work. I turned it off for

about four hours today. And I rebooted it before

we started doing this, so, yeah. Well, you never

turn it off. No. He wants to turn it on. Okay,

let's turn it off. Shut the hell up, you bunch

of dirty old fuckers. No, seriously, when you

turn the computer off, there's like a certain

percentage that it will never come on ever again.

Are you serious? Yeah, I'm serious, so you're

better off just not turning it off. You can reboot

it, but you're putting wear and tear on the power

supply. Yeah. I've had too many power supplies

go bad to risk it. Me too. Me too? Oh. Do we

have any other notes on possession? Great episode.

Must watch. Do it now! Why did you hit him, Michael?

You know, I liked it, again, because I really

liked G1 Starscream. It was very cool to see

him in there. I was very surprised that they

didn't bring him back. I'm not entirely sure

what they would do with him. But I mean, the

last time we saw Starscream, I want to say he

had a body. that he had swindled out of from

Unicron. Last time we saw Starscream, he got

a body from Unicron, and then... And then he

went, ha ha, see ya! And he flew off. Exactly,

but something hit him. He got shot or... No!

No, no, no, no. The Autobots. In that episode,

because Unicron's head was on Cybertron. The

Autobots went to blow up Unicron's head. They

put charges around Unicron's head. His head exploded.

The explosion knocked Galvatron and Cyclonus

around. And then it knocked Starscream off into

space. And Galvatron was like, wait, Starscream

floating through space? And Cyclonus was like,

ghosts can't float through space. Yeah. Did they

shoot him? Because as far as I know he's got

a body and he's still floating around so how

he ended up as a disembodied spark Traveling

through time is like I wasn't quite sure maybe

it was the Rock Lords. Oh We have anything else

on this one or do we want to move on or Well,

I technically don't ever want to see the next

episode move on but the low brow road all together.

Seriously, dude. The die going fart joke, that's

all it's called. I am usually one for potty humor.

This is excessive. Exactly, this was just lame.

Alright, I think we're done with Starscream's

ghost possession. Okay, you don't have anything

else Michael I don't want to stop it before you

say oh well I had like a page and a half more

wasn't a whole lot I mean aside from the really

great quotes there wasn't a whole lot to really

comment on here okay moving on I would suggest

we move him to a less vulnerable location His

power cells are fading fast if we don't find

a counter virus soon He'll not only destroy the

base, but himself as well Sure about this chopper

face I inflicted considerable damage on tarantulas

he cannot have gone far and he will no doubt

have the counter virus yeah well uh you better

hope so for your sake excuse me are you implying

that the current situation is somehow my responsibility

well you did start it gearhead i beg to differ

cheese lips Sheesh, they call me the immature

one. Hey, Optimus, are you sure it was a good

idea sending those two out together? To be honest,

no. But their squabbling has caused problems

before. They'll either learn to work together

or they'll destroy each other. Right now, I don't

really care which. Ascent. Vile corruption. A

whiff of festering putrification. So I had a

limbica sandwich for lunch. I'm a rat. Gimme

a break. I have been uncomfortably aware of your

stench for the past hour, vermin. This is something

else. Something over. Hey, where'd he go? Moving

on to the Low Road was the original air date

was February 10th 1997 It was written by Bob

Foward. During a brief battle just outside the

Axilon, Tarantulas fires a strange device at

Rhinox's face. It attaches itself there and infects

the maximal scientist with an energon discharge

virus. The virus gives Rhinox symptoms similar

to the common cold of Earth, but also quickly

drains away his energy. The maximals begin searching

for an antidote, but time is running out. Wow.

No sir, I didn't like it. Well, just from reading

that last... reading the last line, the time

is running out, I want to hear that song. Time

is running out, or whatever the hell it's called.

I don't know, it was in the update version of

SWAT, the SWAT movie. Yeah. But anyway, um...

You know what I did notice here? What? The whole

movie's chock full of ass shots. I know how much

you love the ass shot. Ass shot. Ass shots. I

don't know. At first I agreed with Steve because

I didn't remember watching this episode as far

as it being god -awful. When I went to watch

it, I found myself laughing through the whole

fucking thing. Oh, you laugh now? Shut the hell

up. Now, Sina, I just, I don't find the sneezing

funny. I find it! It's not really the sneezing

that's funny, it's the fact that he's spewing

energon out of himself and destroying shit. Sina,

I didn't understand. It's like, why would you

keep him in the ship if he's spewing out the

snot? Well, take him outside. So he shoots down

a few trees with his snot. Who cares? Well, it's

like you do with a dog. It starts farting really

bad, you kick it outside. Put a leash on him

and tie him to a tree. Just be done with it.

I just didn't understand why, why wouldn't they

just take him out? Especially when he just might

spontaneously combust. Yeah. Can you imagine

you'd have energy on and fart juice all over?

Yeah. And rhino pieces. If it had been farting,

I think I would have found it more funny. I mean

if it would have been like a South Park episode

where every time you turn around he goes Yeah,

I would have been rolling around on the floor

I think I think this might have been my favorite

episode but the sneezing and the shooting out

of the nose I just Wasn't it wasn't my cup of

tea. Let's say to me. This is the throwaway This

is like another rehash of guerrilla warfare and

so on Yeah, another virus thing another old boohoo

this time instead of making him go ape shit He

literally takes a shit. He takes a third one

nuclear as Zuka's shit. Yeah, I will agree that

there is no there's no plot development in this

episode as far as the overall story of Beast

Wars. However, the rat trap golfing was awesome.

Yeah. In the beginning when he goes far and hits

Dinobot in the ass. Yeah. Another thing I do

like, unfortunately, out of this episode is when

the constant bickering of Dinobot and Rattrap,

like a married couple, and Tarantulas wakes up

around him, and then he says, Dimeximals. And

then they yell, shut up, and punch him in the

face, and knocks him out again. Yeah, it's like

the 80s buddy movie. You know, one of the things

about the whole Tarantula thing, when, oh, I

made a, shut up. I made a note of DinoBot's eye

beams actually hit something other than the cave

ceiling. But that's when he was damaging Tarantulas.

And I like how they put in the kind of like Tom

and Jerry Looney Tunes sound effect when Rattrap

and DinoBot transform and then Tarantulas goes

running like to the left side of the screen.

you can hear the little like race car and i believe

that's in the audio that i grabbed for this episode

i'm not sure of course would've already heard

it by now overall there was a lot of silly elements

here there was just a little bit too much slapstick

for me uh... i mean there was a whole lot of

you know those Looney Tunes moments in this episode

uh... you know it's like Rhinox has to sneeze,

and his whole head expands. I thought that was

kind of cool. I thought it was a nice little

effect, and it was kind of funny. It was just

too silly. Everything gets silly. And I kind

of liked it. The one thing that I liked was Scott

McNeil had to have done the first five minutes

all by himself. Oh yeah. I'm sure he ad -libbed

and did a lot of funnier shit. in the studio,

I'm sure. I wouldn't doubt it. Yeah, he'd probably

spend a good half an hour filming the five minutes.

You know, the sad thing is I still have, like,

you can sign up for a free 14 -day trial for

IMDB Pro to get information that isn't on the

regular IMDB. I looked up Scott McNeil to try

to get his agent info. Not listed. us getting

a scott mcneal interview in the near future is

highly unlikely unfortunately uh... and he still

hasn't friended michael on face book uh... if

if he goes to bach and i'm going to track him

down and be like scott he is a buddy always going

to that other one over the season is going to

be a lot of uh... auto assembly at uh... but

it is a little under that year really You're

gonna pay for me to go to London? I'll go to

London! I have two notes here, but it's pretty

much the same kind of note. The first time when

I took the note, sliding down the proverbial

bat pole, slash tunnel of love doom. Bat pole?

What? What was your bat pole? Well, it's not

a pole, it's the tunnel of love doom thing. Cause

when Rattrap and Dinobot Get trapped by tarantulas.

They're sliding down the slide thing. Yeah Even

though it's not an actual pole. It's still going

from above ground to underground same thing where

Batman and Robin slide slid down the bat poles

kind of But then I made another note less ambiguously

gay Well, and then I made another note tunnel

of loves love slash doom Because it's a whole

slidey thing. Anyway. Yes, you know, we're going

from ambiguously gay to a ton of love to a slidey

thing. And it's just making me uncomfortable.

I'm sorry. And then you got Rhinox's anus being

clearly shown later in the episode. Exactly.

It's just more ass shot for Blanchard. What?

Rhino ass? That's timing. We can't make this

shit up. I mean, honestly. No. One of the quotes

I do like from this episode. Oh, yeah, yeah,

yeah. Go ahead. I think you know what I'm getting

at. I know what you're getting at. This is my

favorite. I want to hear you do it though. Alright,

fine. I cannot do the other character. Oh no,

I will be black correcting you. Fine. Why do

you talk to yourself? I simply have a penchant

for intelligent conversation. I love that. That

is my favorite line. I've used that before. Michael,

being Blackarachnia gives me a disturbing image.

Well, at least I can't do the voice, because

that would be funny as hell if I could have.

That would be disturbing. Yeah, I would be disturbed.

Hell, I mean. I like this quote too. Luck A2.

Having you talk like Blackarachnia and Mewmegatron.

But anyways, he goes this is certainly the most

humiliating defeat of my entire career. Yeah,

I Think I got that as the quote for this episode,

but I don't remember I May have to add in two

quotes this time because I like the twinkle twinkle

little Starscream thing But I think I did grab

the Megatron. This is the easily the worst defeat

in my career thing for the quote as they all

hang on the tree of woe and then waspinator falls

off and kind of makes a slight a slight you know

alive walla noise the walla noise yeah well you

know what walla is right no it's where if you

have a crowd shot it's just crap oh my goodness

It's just people talking all at once. And just

picking up different things. I don't know. I

watched it on the Justice League stuff. Where

Andrea Romano was talking about it. The voice

director Andrea Romano. But anyway. But he makes

that half alive sound just to let you know he's

still alive. I'm not dead! I feel happy! I'm

going for a walk now! What else do you have for

this one, Steve? What was it? Blackarachnia alludes

to the fact that Tarantulas has encrypted information

on his computers foreshadowing his future agenda.

This is porn. Probably. He's like, the ladybot

cannot ever know. He's hiding his monitor. Don't

look! Don't look! Well, it's probably pictures

of her. I've got pictures of her. I mean, there's

nothing wrong with that. That's fine, that's

natural. Oh, and when the Maximals burst into

Tarantulas' lab, where Airazor's copping a few

on Optimus. What? You must have missed that.

She's holding onto his leg. Her arm's all wrapped

around instead of holding the gun. She's just...

It's like the Princess Leia holding on to Luke's

leg type thing. I totally missed it. I'm gonna

have to go back and watch it now. Yeah, it's,

she clearly wants it. She clearly wants it. I

think that should be the picture for the episode.

No. With the Star Wars font. No. No. I'll make

that one for Michael if he sends me that clip.

I'll have to go back and find the clip. That's

funny, I'll have to go back and look because

I don't remember that at all either. Tarantulas

like spare parts of Waspinator. He has a collection.

And that trap has a collection of his own. If

they pool all their parts together, they could

probably make another one. They could make an

army. What was the episode? It wasn't this episode,

but wasn't it this show? Where there's a quote

from rat trap where he goes that they're oh my

god. They're in the base right now What if they're

raiding my room? Do you have any parts pieces

of waspinator? I have I think no because they

said they got a move and That's right, you know

an optimal place one Not nemesis. No. Yes nemesis

part one. I swear to you Because they have to

move the arc Or no, it's nemesis part two. I

thought it was Thought it was optimal situation.

No. How many pieces of Waspinator? You know,

actually, yeah, if they all pooled their pieces

together, they could make a new body for Starscream.

No! No! Yeah, then he could be a new character.

No, no, no, no. Who needs Unicron? Yeah! We'll

just color him white and red, and there you go.

There we go. Like, we need another Waspinator

repaint. It'll be horny screen. Waspinator in

Starscream colors. I wonder if anyone's done

that. I don't know. It's called Transmetal Waspinator.

No, Transmetal... Oh, maybe it is. That's what

they meant for it. No, the Fox Kids version,

I think, is that... Yeah, it's like a red and

black, and then you're gonna hit the jet mode

as the vehicle. I might have to drag him out

and look at it again. That's an interesting call.

The only other thing that I had was when Rhinox

comes out to defend the base, he's knee -deep

in the spent shells, right? And then he gets

nailed by a facehugger. And I'm like, oh, sweet,

something's going to burst out of his chest.

It's going to be awesome. And instead, something

bursts out of his ass. What things bursting out

of Rhinox's ass? Okay, that was funny kind of

Well, it would have been funny if it did like

alien and you know, this little light lizard

thing popped up Turned into like a mini Dino

bot and ran around start shooting them You know,

that's what I was gonna bring up when who fired

the thing was it tarantulas or scorpionoc? Tarantulas,

okay when tarantulas little spiders come out

right when tarantulas fired the the virus thing

If Dinobot hadn't fucking moved the goddamn coward,

it would have been him that got hit with this

thing instead of Rhinox. But it just wouldn't

be amusing seeing this, this, you know, muscly

looking dude. They gotta get the fat guy with

it. No, but I don't even know! No, screw that!

Because if, think of it this way, there was a,

I don't know where it was, I think it was in

a future episode where Dinobot does his head

spin thing with the eye beams? Think about it,

if Ginobot had the virus, every time he would

sneeze, the energon would come out of his eyes

and his head would go 360 all the time. He'd

be like, my eyes are bleeding! Could you imagine

Cheetor with his virus? Optimus, my butt burns!

I feel like I had some nasty tacos. Who fed me

that guacamole? Rattrap would be like, I knew

I shouldn't eat that garbage. You know, I really

like the fact that Rattrap and Dinobot are the

immature ones in this episode versus Cheetor,

because Cheetor even comments on it that, jeez,

what's, you know, and I thought I was the immature

one. Yeah. You know, I like that it wasn't an

episode based on Cheetor screwing up. I think

we've gotten away from that at this point. Like,

the first few were, you know, Cheetor, you're

not listening, and you're making bad decisions,

and now we've got to save your ass again. And,

you know, we've gotten away from that. I would

say, you know, he's learning, and now we're starting

to find plot devices through, you know, other

means. Well, he's not 12 -year -old Cheetor anymore.

He's 14 -year -old Cheetor. He's 16. Here son,

have the keys to the car. He won't be 16 yet.

That's when he gets his next body. That's when

he gets to fly. The next one he hits full on,

like, late teen puberty and yeah. Sweet. So,

Transmetal Transformation equals puberty. Oh

great. That's why Primal's an old man by the

end of the series. It's like Cheetor, you've

made me turn gray. Cheetor is like, mmm, blacker

acne, yum. That's only when he turns 21 and is

legally allowed to drink when he goes black and

yellow. He's gonna have to borrow Tarantulas'

picture collection. What do you think he was

doing in that base? I'm not gonna risk my ass

to get in the Tarantulas' lair for nothing. Well,

he did the day Tarantulas died. He had to get

those pictures off before Tiger Hawk blew it

away. Anyways, we'll talk about those later,

but... Yeah, we'll talk about those later. Anything

else on the low road? Stay away. Stay very far

away. Aside from the Raiders of the Lost Ark

boulder. No, yeah! That's gotta hurt. Yeah. Well,

you saw the Raiders of the Lost Ark boulder.

Yes. Everybody's seen that. It's been spoofed

in almost every movie. Yeah, I just thought it

was interesting that they'd bring it up here

and then clobber tarantulas with it. Well, they've

brought everything else up in this series. Hell,

Dinobot says gazuntite earlier in the episode.

See, silly. Too damn silly. Didn't enjoy it.

It was just too strange. But he said it like

he was so serious. He didn't say it like, ah

-ha -ha -ha -ha -ha. Whatever. I don't know.

Would you like some grey poopon with those deep

ends? God, okay on that note, we're gonna move

on. Yeah, you can stop now. Bye, Snowstalker.

Let your hunting ground shelter you now. I cannot

do this again. It's... it's never easy to bury

a friend. But it is too easy to do this! We had

no choice! The prince! Paracon or Maximal, what

is the difference? In my lust for battle, I caused

the death of an innocent! There are no innocents.

This is war, and this... Well, this is simply

a battlefield. We made it so! And every time

we do, this world suffers! But I will have no

more of it. From this moment on, I am no longer

part of the Beast Wars. Up next is Law of the

Jungle. original air date february seventeenth

nineteen ninety -seven written by mark lear and

young uh... starts out during a mountainside

battle between predacon and maximal forces a

non -combatant falls an organic white tiger companion

to tigertron blaming himself tigertron vows never

to fight again and abandons the beast wars and

can dinobot and optimus primal convince the maximal

scout to return uh... probably not but yeah they

do They do. We've had this conversation before

during the TFG One podcast as far as the I'm

a pacifist now stories. I really hate them. You're

the damn more. Deal with it. It's like, you know

what? Your entire existence is based around shooting

these guys over here. I don't want to hear this.

I'm just gonna go live in a junkyard shit, you

know, no, no, no. No, wait a second here. Wait,

wait, wait. I have to kind of disagree with you

because of the fact that the G1 stories of those

characters that aren't the fighters, they just

don't want to fight. They didn't actually cause

the death of a friend. Now Tigatron, that last

shot that he got off... hit the mountain that

caused the avalanche to kill Sky Stalker or Storm

Stalker or whatever the fuck the goddamn tiger's

name is, I don't fucking know. Snow Stalker.

Yeah, Snow Stalker. There you go. Whatever. Yeah.

It's just a bunch of fucking repaints. It's not

even a repaint, it was a tiger. Well, Tigatron

caused the death... It was his girlfriend. We

need a battle cat repaint as Snow Stalker. Oh

god. Alright, anyway, so the difference between

the G1 stories and this story is that They never

caused the death of a friend. So I can kind of

overlook the whole, you know, I'm not going to

fight anymore. Yeah. I kind of wish that I could

remember the exact plot line for that G1 one

where First Aid basically says, I don't want

to be a fighter anymore. I'm not going to fight.

You know, Defensor is basically without a leg

at this point. Oh no, I know what it was. He

lives in a junkyard, and he fixes washing machines.

Right, yeah. But the reason why it happened was

the Decepticons broke in and injured blades.

They injured something or somebody, and First

Aid just wasn't going to... He kept saying, you

know, I'm not a fighter. I'm a medic. You know,

I'm a medic. I don't do the fighting. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, okay. See, now, you know, don't puss

out. They give you a gun for a reason. Yeah,

true. It's like, let me get this straight now.

You are about a size class away from being a

target master. There's no reason whatsoever for

you not to want to shoot people. As much as I

hate all the bug bots, I'm really, Waspinator's

really grown on me. I love me some Waspinator

when he does, anything he does is just hilarious.

Well that's why they kept him on for the duration

of all the way through Beast Machines. Yeah.

Well after they killed Pterosaur and Scorponok

and... Well they had to keep Waspinator, he was

like their Rhinox. He wasn't burping and farting.

No, he just blows to pieces. Waspinator blows

up good. Uh, Tigatron is good when emotional.

I think Blue Man Kuma really brought the emotion

out in that character. Yeah. With the whole death

scene of his friend and, you know, they didn't

play it off like, oh, she's dead. Who cares?

You know, they really... The story was well written

and the lines were given very well as well. He

did a great job. Very well done. Another, uh...

transforming without activation code, fucking

Dinobot did that. So yeah, you're going to bring

that up like five times. Well, I'm going to bring

it up again now, but I have a question for this.

When either Megatron or Optimus, like when they're

leading their teams against each other, When

either one of them says, you know, Maximals maximize

or Predacons terrorize, if just one of the leaders

says it, it's an activation code for every single

transformer. It's more of a command that they're

ordering. I know, I know, but still. That's all

I'm gonna say about it. It's like, it's a switch,

and you have to flip the switch in order to make

it work. Well, it's like saying, here's a red

button, press it. No wait, don't press it. But

they press it anyway. They press it. Yeah, and

now that I'm thinking about the whole thing,

there was times in G1 where Jazz would say, Autobots

transform, and they would all transform into

car mode or whatever. But still, here, the way

I said it before in this episode, the way that

I understand it, it's an activation code. It's

supposed to activate the transformation and whatever.

I don't know. uh... a final note for a i didn't

take a lot of notes on these episodes i'd i'd

really just started watching them because i started

liking them a little bit uh... wait time to turn

the gun has an extinguisher mode sure when i

had extinguisher it's a mister he's gone if it's

a mister she's not a tiger well if it's a mister

freezing and why don't they put him up against

inferno but that is a here's my frosty Say hello

to my icy friend You know at the beginning of

the episode and then again I I hadn't watched

this in a long time so I forgot what it was about

but at the very beginning there's You know a

bug and the bug gets eaten by a frog and I'm

like, it's a frog So that automatically is this

foreshadowing surely they're foreshadowing here.

The next transformer is gonna be a frog I don't

remember there being a frog Yeah, and then yeah,

because you think there's gonna be a stasis pod

coming down and scanning and they're gonna hit

the frog but Then the frog gets eaten by a snake

And I'm like, all right a snake The next transformer

is gonna be a snake sweet. I don't remember there

being a snake and then the snake gets eaten by

a bird So the third by tears or well, yeah, well,

yeah, we've already got a bird You know, and

I'm thinking, who's going to eat the bird? Well,

Pterosaur didn't eat the bird, but I was waiting

for it to happen. I was waiting for the Pterosaur

to swoop out of the sky and eat him. He thought

about it. Yeah, I'm sure he did. Because, you

know, he's getting like three meals in one. He

gets a bird and a snake and a frog. And a fly.

And four meals in one. That's right. Nobody expects

the Spanish Inquisition smorgasbord. Nobody else

gets that Chirp Chirp. I sent that link to Blanchard

specifically so that he would understand what

the hell I'm talking about when we break into

the Spanish Inquisition skit. What link? And

there will be no goddamn Spanish Inquisition

skit. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.

Ah, shut up. My favorite character didn't even

appear in this episode. Who's your favorite character?

Megatron? Waspinator was there. Well, yeah. Yeah,

I'm right. Dinobot. I think this might be the

first time I've actually ever seen him do this,

but his head retracts down into his body to avoid

a missile or something. I love being a turtle!

I thought the same thing! And his head shrinks

down. Did anybody like the huge, like, almost

nuclear missiles that the... Yeah, the big boys.

Yeah, the big boy rockets that the Waspinator

could barely pick up. Oh yeah! My arms will fall

off! I completely expected him to fall straight

into the ground and have it blow up on him. He

almost did. Okay, so far this episode currently

has three quotes. The Megatron one, I gotta go

back and get the Cheetor thing. And the Waspinator

thing where, uh, Pterosaur gets splatted and

he's like, do something! Pterosaur did not give

signal. Attack, you moron! Waspinator will engage

it. I love it! I love it! Yes, that was probably

one of my favorite quotes of the episode. the

scene where Tegatron is waving his finger at

Inferno, lecturing him even though Inferno's

standing there staring at him not understanding

a word he's saying while shooting his flamethrower

laughing and you've got Primal and Dinobot in

the background in beast mode waving their f -

things at Inferno. Bad Inferno. You know, I wanna

bring up a topic here that I don't think we've

covered before. Now, Snow Stalker is a tiger,

not a transformer, but he is... She is Tigertron's

companion, quote unquote, right? Well, because

that's what Tigertron scanned from originally

in Fallen Comrades. Right, right. So, I mean,

they're an item. They're a couple, right? Now,

the nice part about embracing your beast side

You know, as they did earlier in, uh... Oh, what

the hell was the name of the episode? He did

it tiger style. Yeah, well, that's about it,

you know? It's like... You know... Alright, I'm

gonna come out and say it. Is he fully functional?

In beast mode? Apparently. Are they rocking the

Tigertron boots there? Do rhinos fart? I suppose

they do. Does it bear shit in the woods? Does

the president shit in the woods? I one would

hope not. They always do so from the mouth. That's

a politician thing. But you know, here's my question.

Is it considered beastiality if you're both in

beast mode? It would have been really wrong if

he was in robot. I'm confused. I'm not sure what's

going on here. I'm assuming it's just really

easy to pick up chicks in beast mode. Hey, baby.

Rawr, you know? Well, like, he could have, you

know, opened up his, uh, that little patch in

front of his crotch in robot mode and been like,

where did I put those testicles? They're in there

somewhere. God. I know. It's... Reaching around

trying to find... You know go get snow stalker,

and you know if it was like a you know a Michael

Bay Beast Wars thing Yeah, they would like really

whitehead testicle exactly. They'd be heavy dangling.

Yeah Swaying around what is your position? I'm

directly below Tigertron's testicles Michael

Bay has raped my childhood like Starscream raves

metal bugs That's right Standing up Yeah, so

I mean, you know, they bring this in, and I feel

bad that Snowstalker died. It's terrible. He

should have never brought her into that situation.

You know, it's like, what will you think? It's

like, you know, oh, I'm going into battle now.

Come on, sweetheart, let's go. We'll make a picnic

out of it. She should have never been there.

And I feel bad that she died. And it's rough

on him, I understand. Uh, you know buddy, there's

plenty of other fish in the sea. There's lots

of other snow tigers out there. You got together

with Air Razor, and then they merged. And then

they became transsexual. Were they? I don't even

want to go out and have sex with myself. Eww.

I'm not even going to go there, alright. I think

I went far enough with bestiality. You're the

one that opened the floodgates. Exactly. Yeah,

and then we just let it pour out let it pour

let it flow baby spreading more DNA all over

the world That clip where he realizes he blew

her up, you know accident Oh Fuck I think I just

blew up my girlfriend. Well, yeah, he's standing

there and he's clenching his fist and he's looking

up It looks like he's trying to take it down

like seriously Yeah, he's trying to launch himself

into orbit out of pity and grief, but you know,

I'm those explosive beans Yeah, they never showed

those anymore after that one day the whole ship

was overrun with them the next day other we mowed

the lawn it's fine But they do the dead body

No, he buried it though. Well, I mean I I didn't

see a body There's no proof that she's dead,

you know, but then they've got a grave there.

So I was like, oh, maybe he found her Maybe I

just didn't want to show her shattered remains,

her bloody corpse under all the rocks. I wonder

what that would look like. Like a kill. Yes,

it's plenty of shattered expectations. It'd be

like that piece of cloned Dinobot coming out

of Dinobot's teeth. Yeah. Yeah. Or want a bite?

That's around the tens of subject. Another slice,

anyone? I can't believe Michael is the only one

that laughed at my illusion there. What one?

The shattered expectations. Uh, yeah. Thanks.

Steve doesn't get it. Steve doesn't get it. No,

I don't. Steve's in the dark, as usual. That's

okay. At least so says he. Oh, and lastly, Terasaur

has a team rocket moment. No! No! He didn't even

hit a rock this time. I mean, uh, he just flew

off into the sky. Didn't something shoot him

or someone shoot him? I wanted, you know, for

some reason, for some reason, I think it was

Inferno that blasted him out of the sky. Yeah,

by accident, I want to say. Yeah. He was shooting

aimlessly at everything and I think missed. Yeah,

and Pterosaur went... I like that Inferno still

holds a grudge. He calls Tigertron destroyer

of his colony. Yeah. That's right, yeah. And

now I'm gonna make you blow up your girlfriend.

Yeah, yeah. That's just... That's terrible. I

still keep going back to that. It's like, so

he's got a girlfriend that's a real tiger? And

what do they do together exactly? Do they just

frolic and play in the glades? She just understands

me. I know. And she listens when I talk. It's

like she can't talk back. Alright? He can talk

tiger. You can't talk, tiger. Whatever. He's

like, rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr

rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr rawr raw This episode

yes Oh wait, I mean damn. Yeah This rocks. Oh,

wait a minute. No, it doesn't No, but at the

beginning of the episode they actually have more

foreshadowing at Do they? On what? Why is there

a frog transformer coming? No, is there a snake

transformer coming? No, is there a bird transformer

coming? Well, we've already got a bird so don't

count It's when Cheetor and Dinobot are searching.

Cheetor and Dinobot are searching for... Aliens,

ooh. Oh, that's right! Yeah! Okay. You know what,

and I thought, and again, when I was watching

this and not really remembering what the episode

was about, I was thinking, sweet, we're gonna

find more alien ruins. Or ruins, or floating

islands, or some shit. Yeah. Some shit. I like

some shit. Some kind of floating alien shit.

It's like guano, but not. No. Oh wait, that's

for bats. Shut up. Aw, nutty. Professor? That's

right. Although this is... it does end up tying

back into the whole alien... Yeah. ...by the

next episode. Yeah. Which pretty much the next

three are all alien -based. Oh, sweet. You see,

that's where the chest -burster should have come

in from. The what? Harkening back to the low

road, where Rhinox got the facehugger. And it

comes out and goes, rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Grog what Michigan J. Frog no Spaceballs the

the guy I forget the guy's name offhand with

the guy who played The guy that the astronaut

that it happened to in the original alien movie

was in the spaceballs Right, that's the same

guy. Yeah, right the alien came out of his stomach

And he went into Hello My Baby, Hello My Honey,

which was Michigan Jay Frog. Yeah, yeah. From,

which the frog never actually was named until

I got to Kids WB, but it was the frog from Looney

Tunes, the talking frog when the guy was trying

to make the money and he couldn't make the money

because a frog would never sing. Right, right.

When other people were watching. When everyone

was watching, right. It's funny that they had

to give him a name because apparently you can't

be on TV if you don't have a name. You can't

just be that frog. No, they had to give him a

name. But I think it's cool though. Anyway, now

they have Michigan J alien. Oh Good Lauren. Well,

because they can't be on space balls unless you

hey give him a name Yeah, yeah, they're calling

professor balls Now see now they're gonna have

Michigan J Vok as he jumps out of Rhinox's chest

and Hello, my baby. Hello, my darling. I already

did that on Tigatron or Tiger Hawk Tiger Hawk

jumps out of Rhinox's chest? No, the Vox come

out of Tiger Hawk and dive into Tarantulas. I'm

gonna have to go back and watch these again.

I'll re -edit that with some funny clip. I don't

know. I'll do that later. It sounds terribly

cool though. Can't wait to watch it. As soon

as I figure out how to do it. Wait, what? I'm

going to remix that clip with different audio.

It's going to be quite funny. If I remember by

that point. Yeah. Well, I know I won't remember,

unfortunately. My memory is a bad, bad thing.

Do we have anything else about the low road?

Or not that? The low road. See? I already fucked

up. The law of the jungle. There was no farting

in the law of the jungle. The law of the jungle.

Ryan actually still taking his energon recuperation

pills. Look, it's a frog. Oh, look, it's a snake.

Oh, it's a bird. The bird's eating it. He's drinking

it. OK, stop. They're all farting. His duff.

Stop the farting. All right, we are going to.

I'm a pacifist now, and pacifists don't do podcasting.

So I'm just going to go over here into the junkyard

and fix washing machines. Shut the hell up. Scrub,

scrub, scrub, scrub, scrub. I can't be a leg

anymore. Coming up next are the quotes of the

episode. You are listening to the Beast Unleashed

podcast. This is quote number one. Do something!

Pterosaur has not given signal! Attack, you imbecile!

Waspinator will engage enemy. This is quote number

two. And thus you are encouraged to keep your

beak shut. And quote number three. Starscream

and Blackarachnia. I'll have both their treacherous

hides. Yes. I'll melt them down and use them

for aluminum siding. Oh yes indeed. This is quote

number four. Oh Waspinator has a headache in

his whole body. And this is quote number five

for Beast Unleashed episode eight. Twinkle twinkle

little Starscream. This is Megatron, and you're

listening to the Beast Unleashed podcast. Oh,

yes. Wait, wait, wait, wait, shut up! I didn't

even start the damn clip yet. Well, I started

it, but anyway. If we get to the actual outro

of this show, Megatron had something to say.

Take it Barney, take it hard, yes! Oh Christ.

Megatron says, Barney don't make me tighten up

my ass cheeks and rip your dick off because I'll

do it. Barney's wearing panties. Oh god. Look

at the way he's dressed. You know he's asking

for it Okay, let's let's preface like you said

All fair Michael continued talking about the

whole bestiality thing and mentioned that Why

aren't there any other purple dinosaurs around

for Megatron to bang and then Steve said what

he said a second ago? Yeah, I said we'd have

a Barney moment Yeah, I love you. I love you.

Shut up, bitch. I'm not done. There will be no

cuddling. Only very, very hard. I will cuddle

you so hard. Oh. Oh, God. Okay. Okay. Excuse

me. You're not even gonna be able to include

that anywhere. That's just wrong. It's an explicit

podcast made for adult geeks like us This is

actually the this is actually the outro clip

of the show I wanted to before we or after we

went into that whole comedy bit there, wanted

to make an announcement about this episode. The

official episode art, we are... I'm debating

between Rattrap with a hard hat or Rhinox blazing

the chain guns with bullet shells all around

him. We do have... One other artwork, I think.

One or two, I forget. There's one with Starscream

as well. Right. There's one with Starscream.

That's not going to be the official art. However,

we will put it in the website post. So if people

want to change their art in iTunes, they can

do that. But the official art is either going

to be the rat trap with a hard hat or Rhinox's

bullet infestation. Crickets. Crickets. Crickets.

Bullet infestation. Yes, it'll be whatever. It'll

be one of them. Whatever we decide by the end

of the episode. Are we done? Do we have anything

else we want to inflict on these good people?

I don't think I want to injure their minds anymore

for this week. Oh boy. I'm freaking out man.

I can't think of anything suitably horrible,

so... Stay tuned for next week, same beast time,

same beast channel! Beastiality channel! Oh,

Christ, that's the last thing we fucking need.
