*This episode, including the news and interview, is a rerun from February 2020* This week on the podcast, we go big - literally - with a story so crazy it's almost hard to believe. Cofounder Matt Oehrlein and his team made headlines in 2015, when they challenged Japan's Suidobashi Heavy Industry to the world's first international mech robot duel. The duel garnered 8.5 million views on YouTube...and 8.5 million different opinions on the outcome. Late last year, MegaBots declared bankruptcy and sold off its assets. We go deep on the history of the company, his experience building and fighting Eagle Prime, and what the future of giant fighting robots might possibly hold.

The first rule about Porgs fight club is don't talk about Porgs fight club. The first rule about sexual misconduct is the exact opposite! Even after saying we weren't going to, we talk a bit about the Harvey Weinstein allegations; though we do stray more on the fact that Twitter blocked Rose McGowan after telling Ben Affleck to fuck off. **UPDATE: Turns out the tweet that broke Twitter's ToS included a screencap of an email that showed in full another person's email address.** In less depressing "people are shit" news, the much anticipated MegaBots v. Suidobashi fight happens tomorrow at 7pm Pacific over on MegaBots Twitch channel! [su_frame]And feel free to watch right from this page below!

This season of television you've got choices when deciding where to boldly go. Option A: Seth MacFarlane's The Orville; a Galaxy Quest-style, Roddenberry-fueled sci-fi comedy. Option B: Star Trek: Discovery; a darker slice of Trek set in the new movie continuity. Option C: BOTH?! Join Cap, boR, Trench, and Doug as we weigh the pros and cons of both series. The very fact that we have two high-caliber, space-faring shows at once after such a long time without anything Trek-flavored is hitting us with one heck of a displacement wave! We also review Blade Runner 2049, the long-lost SNES title Star Fox 2, and discuss the confusing news surrounding MegaBots, peculiar home archeology, and more!

Je ogen denken dan: nee, ik heb niets gezien, want ik luister naar een podcast en die werkt met stomme geluidsgolven. Daarom: linkjes naar dingen die tijdens de podcast worden besproken, maar die je ‘eens moet zien’! Chriet Titulaer Chriet Titulaer fietst rond met de mobiele datatelefoon en doet een oproep voor tweehonderd testpersonen die dat ding op hun fiets willen zetten. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zh-kMbuFgbM Dit filmpje was een aprilgrap. Ironisch genoeg is het het meest bekende filmpje van Wondere Wereld geworden, en moest Chriet het tot op het einde van zijn leven constant ontkrachten.

We geek, we gush, and we even manage to say a few serious things about the future of humanity while talking about New Horizons, Rosetta, science fiction, nation-state rivalries, and how we would love to go visit other places in the solar system (or galaxy). Errata: Chris said New Frontiers was an ESA probe; it was in fact a NASA probe. He was thinking of Rosetta, an ESA project to land on a comet—which they did, after the greatest gravity boost sequence in history: Slingshot this!Note: yep, those are children fussing in the background at one point in the show.

As nerds we've been fed our entire lives with dreams of sci-fi destinies. Many of these grand dreams fizzled at the onset of the 21st century, but there's one that you'll have to pry from our cold, dead hands: giant robots. We want to see towering steel goliaths do battle with massive missile launchers and insane blades, and we want to see it now. That glorious future has arrived, dear friends - thanks to MegaBots. These all-American Robot Jox have built their own giant robot and challenged Japan's finest giant robosmiths, Suidobachi Heavy Industry, to a duel. The challenge was accepted and now the race is on to soup up their robo chariot into a melee fighting mecha Rocky. We're joined by MegaBots' Matt Oehrlei and Gui Cavalcanti at the dawn of their Kickstarter quest to supercharge America's robot champion: The Mark II. Hear Cap and Trench alongside Atomic Robo creative team/ fictional robot experts Brian Clevinger and Scott Wegener geek out with the MegaBots guys over Mech Warrior and Battletech, get the details on all the Mark II's possible upgrades, discuss their roboticist origins working for The Man, ejector seat feasibility, and much more. Plus, catch up with the latest Atomic Robo news and thrill to the 21st century's other emerging future sport: VR drone racing! USA! USA!
