TransMissions Podcast - Everything Transformers!
TransMissions is a podcast network primarily about the Transformers franchise, but we also branch out into other related topics. On Wednesdays we have new episodes of TransMissions, all about the toy side of the Transformers franchise and on Fridays you can listen to new episodes of Alt Mode, with comic reviews and the latest news in Transformers comics and other media. TransMissions Extra! is a show we release whenever there's a new one and covers non-Transformers topics. Finally, Declassified is a monthly show that's exclusive to our Patreon supporters where we have guests on and go deep on a single...
Empire Of Rust 162 - The Fiction We Choose To Carry
With the dust settling in Iacon, the crew receives a visit from an influential ally: Windblade. Carrying both authority and urgency, she brings a new mission—one that requires diplomacy, discretion, and a steady hand. The Harmonium representatives currently under Iacon's protection must be returned safely to their home territory. Though the organization still stands, the political landscape around it is delicate, and the journey could have consequences far beyond a simple escort mission. Windblade lays out the stakes and the route ahead, turning the crew's attention from recent battles to the careful work of diplomacy and safe passage. Fo...

Empire Of Rust 161 - The Gravity Of Echoes
In the uneasy calm after Argentum, the cracks start to show. While the city of Iacon tries to return to normal, Carapace decides now is the perfect time to rob a store—because some habits survive every arc. Elsewhere, Magnum and Spindrift dig deeper into the data pulled from the Doctrine's ruins. What they uncover isn't just leftover ideology or rogue cells, but something far more structured: the remains of Starscream's plans for the Harmonium. As one problem is handled loudly and another quietly takes shape, the crew realizes that the space between victory and consequence is shrinking fast.

With Outpost Argentum behind them, the crew returns to Iacon, escorting the rescued Mini-Cons to safety. The victory is real—but so is the weight it carries. While the city hums on, scars unseen begin to surface. Magnum and Pythagorus retreat into research, piecing together what was taken, what was learned, and what threats may still be moving in the shadows. The Doctrine may be broken, but its ideas didn't exist in a vacuum—and the data recovered raises unsettling questions about who else might be listening. Meanwhile, Spindrift shares a quiet, deeply personal conversation with Ironhide—one that forces...

Empire Of Rust 158 - GarbageCollection.LOCK
The battle at Outpost Argentum reaches its breaking point as the chaos narrows to a single deadly duel. With the fight raging around them, Spindrift and Sightline finally face each other one on one—skill, patience, and precision deciding who walks away. As the sniper's advantage fades, the crew rallies, turning the tide against the Doctrine's enforcers for good. Clinch's swarm is torn apart, Weldscar is dragged from the acid and destroyed, and the trio's iron grip on the outpost finally shatters. Victorious but battered, the heroes sift through the wreckage, claiming hard-won spoils and answers that may push th...

Empire Of Rust 157 - PurgeIntruders.BIN
The fight at Outpost Argentum grinds on as the crew remains locked in battle with the Doctrine's enforcers. Clinch breaks apart into a swarming mass, harrying the team from every angle, while Weldscar disappears beneath the surface of the acid pool, striking from below with brutal precision. High above it all, Sightline remains unseen, his shots coming from nowhere and everywhere at once. Pressed on all sides and running out of room to maneuver, the crew struggles to adapt to the trio's coordinated assault. In the turning tide of the battle, one of the heroes is overwhelmed...

Empire Of Rust 156 - SearchTrio.EXE
The crew pushes deeper into Outpost Argentum and finds themselves in a vast acid-processing chamber, where bubbling corrosive pools churn beneath suspended catwalks, and half-finished Cybertronian bodies are lowered for "purification." The air burns, the footing is treacherous, and every mistake threatens dissolution. Waiting for them are the Doctrine's enforcers: Clinch, Weldscar, and Sightline—a coordinated triumvirate engineered to fight as one. As acid geysers erupt and catwalks buckle under fire, the battle becomes a brutal test of positioning, teamwork, and endurance.

Empire Of Rust 155 - Consecrated Corridor Of Carnage
The infiltration goes violently sideways as the crew stumbles into one of Outpost Argentum's deadliest internal defenses: a precision laser corridor designed to turn intruders into neatly sorted components. Trapped, divided, and under a rapidly adapting kill-grid, the team must think fast, move faster, and decide who's willing to risk dismemberment so the mission can continue. As the Doctrine's cold logic asserts itself, the crew is forced to confront the reality that this facility was never meant to be breached—only survived by those who understand how it thinks. Order demands sacrifice. The lasers agree.
