RoboCast #78 — BattleBots: World Championship V - Ep 2 Review [w. Jonathan Schultz]

Episode Title: The Big Boys

 

In this podcast, I am joined by new regular host Jevan or WorldofWoodrow. Also joining us for the second episode of BattleBots 2020 is Jonathon Schulz, keeper of the second biggest BattleBot in the field, HUGE!

 

Please bear in mind that my internet connection was a little unstable in this recording, so there may be some small gaps in conversation or audio mishaps as a result. I’ve fixed what I can but I’m sure there’ll be some small hiccups.
