You have received a transmission from The Rod Pod. Jon and Maggie are trapped on a spacecraft shaped like Rodimus' head, hurtling through space with only the IDW Transformers Phase 2 comics to keep them company. So they are sending their thoughts about these stories through subspace, hoping that someone will hear and send help. Or at the very least be entertained.
TF Nation may have all of the writers, artists, celebrities, and toys associated with all aspects of Transformers, but we have something it doesn't: The Fire and Water Podcast Network's Ryan Daly, who we transported to the Rod Pod completely by accident and also completely against his will! Luckily, he was a good sport about the whole thing, and helped us review the next two comics on our journey through Phase 2: Spotlight:Trailcutter and Spotlight: Hoist, before we got him safely home (presumably).
We also debut two new segments, which are the same as two of our old segments but with different music and different names! With all the insight, commentary, and wacky hijinx that you've come to expect (presumably).
