The Transformers: The Movie (1986) with Mike Vanderbilt

Both Mike Vanderbilt’s return and The Transformers: The Movie has been in the works for a LONG time over here on the show. We are busy guys and one thing leads to another. All of a sudden almost 7 months have passed since you were trying to set it up. Well, it’s finally here and rest assured, dear listeners, it doesn’t disappoint.

Our discussion is one of nostalgia, passion, details, appreciation and the people who brought this movie to life and the legacy it has carried for 36 years. It’s a smooth conversation that really digs into the movie, the times, the different eras of your life watching it and more. Yes, I’m talking about the 85 minute cartoon about alien robots in outer space trying to get the shiny circle that gives them great power. It means THAT much to us.

If you enjoy Mike and you enjoy the conversations we’ve had on the show in the past or his other programs, this is another one you’re going to love. It was great to get back behind the mic and share time talking shop with him and it wound up being a fantastic episode.
