Podcasts about Transformers

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we shine light on quite an old property; that is The Shadow! From its origins in Pulp Comic Format to the Hollywood Film in 1994 staring Alec Baldwin. That Film was classified big enough to spawn a corresponding Toyline from Kenner. Trent unpacks what was great, and what was left in the dark, around this neat property. Then we switch gears, and have a FULL-ON Spoiler lead discussion around the new Marvel Film that is: Thunderbolts - or New Avengers?!? We run though how each character played their part; the tone of the film & what we all overall thought of it too. Keen to hear from your thoughts on this Film too!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Queer Spectacle, Polaroid Realities, and the Art of Wrestling with Identity with Christopher Anthony Velasco In this illuminating episode of What's My Thesis?, host Javier Proenza welcomes artist and educator Christopher Anthony Velasco—a polymath of performative personas, analog photography, and speculative queer mythologies. Known for his immersive character work and deep engagement with the aesthetics of subversion, Velasco brings an electrifying mix of vulnerability, irreverence, and narrative dissonance to a conversation that resists containment. Anchored by his long-running alter ego The Doctor, Velasco charts a performative lineage from backyard wrestling and horror cinema to body horror and experimental drag. His work collapses boundaries between art and entertainment, sincerity and satire, fiction and lived experience—what he terms “the art world as a wrestling ring.” Through characters like Krystal Carrington and Doctor Barbie, Velasco reclaims and retools identity through spectacle, queering archetypes from within. This episode explores: The influence of Japanese wrestling and horror film on Velasco's photographic performance work The metaphysical potential of Polaroids as portals into alternate dimensions Drag as worldbuilding and trauma alchemy Navigating academia as a queer artist of color—from community college through CalArts and UC Santa Barbara Sobriety, creative resilience, and re-emerging with purpose Velasco speaks candidly about substance use, identity crises, and the emotional minefields of higher education, particularly the lack of institutional support for artists of color. Yet, the episode also brims with humor, warmth, and geeky tangents—from Transformers lore to micro machines, Proenza's Miami coke-snobbery, and the joys of analog photography. This conversation is a living archive: disorganized, alive, and expansive. Like Velasco's art, it makes space for contradiction, chaos, and camp without apology.

What if we recasted Michael Bay's 1996 classic "The Rock?"Ash Hurry joins us once again to break down why this film stands as possibly Bay's greatest achievement and the culmination of Nicolas Cage's action movie trilogy. • Exploring the James Bond theory: Sean Connery's character John Mason is actually an older James Bond who was captured and imprisoned• Michael Bay's filmography and how "The Rock" represents his peak before the Transformers era• The anti-villain brilliance of Ed Harris's General Hummel – threatening but ultimately unwilling to follow through• Standout scenes including the shower room speech by Michael Biehn and the green smoke finale • Chemistry between Cage and Connery creates the perfect action movie pairing, similar to other great duos in film history• And of course, our fun recasting game, where we reimagine the film with modern actors (Nick), DC universe actors (Ash), and professional wrestlers (Cory).Check out our social media for more content and to join the conversation about your favorite action movie duos and scenes from The Rock.

We're talking about a simple technology that can fundamentally reshape the energy industry by transforming electricity more efficiently and with way less physical space than what's been done traditionally.Take an EV charger, for example. You need to get the exact electricity flow right. Usually, that would take a few parking spaces' worth of transformers. With DG Matrix, you can do it with a simple power stand smaller than your refrigerator.This is still the case even if you've got solar, batteries, or other distributed resources all mixed in together. They can handle all the streams of electricity in and out.It's clear the industry is loving this too. They have over $1bn of pipeline to date.We got Haroon and Michael, so it's a great episode._____Want to access all our content? Upgrade to paid today. Act fast!

[Encore] Kate and Franklin sit down with Steven Canals, the brilliant mind behind Pose, to talk about growing up Afro-Latinx in the Boogie Down Bronx, why Cardi B is everything, and how a 2004 screening of Paris is Burning lit the spark that would eventually become one of TV's most groundbreaking shows. They dig into the complicated, beautiful realities of intersectional identity, the tough questions that came up in the Pose writers' room, and how Steven stayed true to his vision every step of the way. Plus, he drops some incredible answers to the Black List Pod questionnaire — including a wild (and amazing) mash-up of The Color Purple and Transformers.Questions? Comments? Criticism?

Welcome, Earthlings and Cybertronians alike, to another episode of Play Comics-where the only thing more confusing than the continuity is trying to fold yourself into a PS2 disc case! This time, we're rolling out (and occasionally transforming) into the wild world of the 2004 Transformers video game. Yes, the one that's based on Transformers: Armada-even though the box art was too shy to admit it, and the plot zigzags harder than a Mini-Con on a caffeine rush. Joining us for this electrifying adventure is none other than Charles Shelton from the TransMissions Podcast Network, a man who knows more about Autobots, Decepticons, and questionable voice acting than Unicron knows about planetary snacking. Together, we'll dodge Decepticlones, collect Mini-Cons like they're Pokémon, and ponder why Optimus Prime never just took a vacation in the Amazon (hint: robot allergies). So buckle up, hit that triangle button to transform, and prepare for a journey through nostalgia, PS2 graphics, and more robot drama than a Cybertronian soap opera. Let's see if we can save the universe-or at least get through the jungle level without rage-quitting. Learn such things as: Why do you need to experience things for yourself and not rely on others to decide if you'll like a thing or not? Do you really need to see all of those great Transformers characters that you've come to love so much? Wouldn't it be fine to just have a few of them? How did Soundwave get into here and mess with Charles's audio? Especially because he doesn't even show up in Armada? And so much more! You can find Charles on the  TransMissions Podcast Network which includes shows looking at the toys, the media, and even an actual play Transformers themed tabletop RPG game.

In this powerful episode of Other People's Shoes, we explore the true meaning of transformation — not just physically, but emotionally and mentally. Much like the 80s classic Transformers cartoon, where characters could shift into stronger, more capable versions of themselves, today's guest, Roman Fischer reveals how he tapped into that same transformative power through fitness. Bullied and body-shamed growing up, Roman struggled with negative thoughts and the pain of others' judgments. But everything changed when he discovered the gym. What started as a way to escape became a path to empowerment. Through the discipline of weight lifting, Roman found confidence, clarity, and control over his own narrative.We dive into:Roman's early experiences with bullying and self-doubtHow fitness became a safe place for growth and healingThe mindset shift that helped him overcome negativityWhy it's never too late to start your health journeyThe power of routine and showing up, even on the hard daysHis favorite quote: "Motivation gets you going, but consistency keeps you growing."If you've ever struggled to take the first step toward your goals or felt limited by your past. Roman reminds us all that we are more than meets the eye — and that the strongest transformation always starts within. Join me as I walk in Roman's shoes.

Andor is back along with other big Star Wars announcements and you could own a Decepticon! We'll talk about it all in the #MikeJonesMinuteCon.

In this episode, we roll out with Bob Budiansky and Simon Furman, the legendary minds behind the original Transformers comics from Marvel and Marvel UK respectively. With Skybound's massive compendiums reigniting interest in both series, we dive deep into how a Japanese toy line transformed into a pop culture juggernaut. Bob shares how Transformers first landed on his desk at Marvel and the challenges of writing 50+ issues while constantly introducing new characters. Simon discusses navigating the complexities of fitting UK stories around US continuity and eventually taking over the US title himself. Together, they reflect on their favorite characters, what made Transformers such a lasting property, and the creative synergy—and surprises—between their respective runs. It's a must-listen for fans who want to go beyond the robots in disguise and hear the human stories behind the mythos.  Skybound's Compendium Set Kickstarter campaign goes until May 7, so be sure to back it here before time runs out: http://kck.st/4i3ts31.Support the show

with @ilblackdragon @rhhackettWelcome to web3 with a16z. I'm your host, Robert Hackett.In this episode, we're diving deep into one of the most intriguing intersections in tech today: AI and crypto.To help us unpack it, we're joined by Illia Polosukhin — co-founder of the crypto protocol NEAR and co-author of the groundbreaking 2017 "transformers" paper that kicked off the current AI boom. Ilia has been early to some of the biggest recent tech trends, and today he brings us a rare, panoramic view of the tech industry's cutting edge.Together we explore what the phrase “user-owned AI” really means; why the so-called agentic internet — that is, a world where your AI assistant talks directly to services on your behalf — might replace the very notion of websites and apps as we know them; and much more.Timestamps:(0:00) Introduction(3:40) Centralization and Challenges of AI(6:17) "User-Owned" AI(12:14) Confidential Computing and AI(17:51) The Birth of Transformers(22:33) NEAR AI and Crowdsourcing(27:56) AI Agents and Future Applications(31:04) The End of Websites and Applications(34:08) Dead Internet Theory & Distinguishing Humans(41:49) Open Source vs. Open Weight Models(43:48) Geopolitical Implications of AI(46:55) NEAR Protocol and Blockchain Scaling(59:29) The Role of Humans in an AI WorldResources:Attention is all you need by Vaswani et al.

The early 2000s began a major period of nostalgia for Transformers that has continued ever since, and a significant part of that was the 2002-6 Takara Transformers Collection series, often known as the 'book box' reissues.

Aidan joined this week's Unsupervised Learning for a wide-ranging conversation on model architectures, enterprise adoption, and what's breaking in the foundation model stack. If you're building or investing in AI infrastructure, Aidan is worth listening to. He co-authored the original Transformer paper, leads one of the most advanced model labs outside of the hyperscalers, and is now building for real-world enterprise deployment with Cohere's agent platform, North. Cohere serves thousands of customers across sectors like finance, telco, and healthcare — and they've made a name for themselves by staying model-agnostic, privacy-forward, and deeply international (with major bets in Japan and Korea) (0:00) Intro(0:32) Enterprise AI(3:23) Custom Integrations and Future of AI Agents(4:33) Enterprise Use Cases for Gen AI(7:02) The Importance of Reasoning in AI Models(10:38) Custom Models and Synthetic Data(17:48) Cohere's Approach to AI Applications(23:24) Future Use Cases and Market Fit(27:11) Building a Unified Automation Platform(27:34) Strategic Decisions in the AI Journey(29:19) International Partnerships and Language Models(31:05) Future of Foundation Models(32:27) AI in Specialized Domains(34:40) Challenges in Data Integration(35:06) Emerging Foundation Model Companies(35:31) Technological Frontiers and Architectures(37:29) Scaling Hypothesis and Model Capabilities(42:26) AI Research Culture and Team Building(44:39) Future of AI and Societal Impact(48:31) Addressing AI Risks With your co-hosts:  @jacobeffron  - Partner at Redpoint, Former PM Flatiron Health  @patrickachase  - Partner at Redpoint, Former ML Engineer LinkedIn  @ericabrescia  - Former COO Github, Founder Bitnami (acq'd by VMWare)  @jordan_segall  - Partner at Redpoint

This week the Dashing Duo had fun discussing the best games of the year 2000, silent comic book issues,  Transformers,  a Crouching Tiger,  Hidden Dragon reboot,  and so much more!

It's business as usual for the toy companies. They're pushing products that they started developing over 6 months ago. However, what are these going to cost? New Joes hit today and at the largest seller of toys in America, Entertainment Earth, they are $6 more than MSRP. The Vintage Collection Star Wars figures were already too high. What's the new Carson Teva going to run fans of Paul Sun-Hyung Lee when it hits the pegs? Master's prices have gone up pretty regularly over the last few years. Origins started less than five years ago at $15.99. The newest wave is $21.99. Transformers have been somewhat stable, but who knows what the leaked list of 2026 figures will cost when finally in hand.
