Just One More Thing!

Call us Columbo, but it didn't seem fair that after nearly 3 years of pondering plot points out loud, we didn't give some of our repeat mailbag offenders a chance to chime in...especially now that Mike Seibert has graduated from First-Time Viewer to Serial Rewatcher.

With the spoiler embargo lifted, we welcome to the show Ed, Blake, Stuart, Irish Mike and returning 2M2F superfan, Matthew "Matty B" "The Barberino" Barberio to discuss Transformers Animated as a whole--with little to no regard for Seibert's precious ears!

We'll cover some...

We came, we saw, we achieved something!

Your Tireless Mechanical Mikes--the Spark Soul Brothers themselves--return for one last episode review proper, discussing the final episode of Transformers Animated ever, "Endgame, Part II."

No more flashbacks, folks! In fact, we're flashing forward to the execution of Megatron's big plan--or is it Starscream's? It's the final battle for New Detroit, the Earth, and Cybertron all in one--and you've got box seats in Sumdac Tower!

Listen in as Mikel Andrews masters Processor Over Matter to pluck the last shard of wireless fidelity from his internet provider...

It's a bittersweet symphony as the Mikes arrive at the first half of the Transformers Animated series finale, "Endgame, Part I." A flashback-heavy tale unfolds, setting up the origins of the Autobot team we know and love--the trial of Optimus Prime, the final commission of Ratchet, the friendship of Bee and Bulk, and the fate of Prowl. In the present, Optimus earns his wings (and maybe hammer) while Megatron reveals his big plan (no, bigger) from the darkest reaches of the moon.

But don't worry, we're putting some serious mileage between us and the end of the...

The Mikes have been chewed up and spit out by these mean streets, so they're jumping into the Space Bridge Nexus, along with the enigmatic nicknameless Abbey, to unwrap the hardest-boiled episode of Transformers Animated yet: Season 3's "This Is Why I Hate Machines."

Of all the Space Bridges mounted on top of inventor's towers in New Detroit, why did Fanzone have to walk into his? Ratchet and the Motor City's toughest cop (maybe fugitive) leap across the galaxy to find a cold new era for Cybertron: the interim rule of acting Magnus, Sentinel Prime! Under the sh...

Your favorite pair of Broken Lances are back, covering the Transformers Animated season 3 episode "Decepticon Air." (And if you thought we weren't going to dive deep into its high-flying 1997 source material, then you better put up your tray table, cuz it's gonna be a bumpy ride!) 

As we head to space with Sentinel Prime and all the Decepticons baddies aboard the Steelhaven, we navigate through a G1 renaissance, drift past a "Human Error" recap, and lock proton torpedoes on some serious JURIS-MY-DICTION! The runway to Endgame is getting real short, cogs, you won't want to miss this f...

WHERE IS BLACKARACHNIA?? Oh, there she is.

Worlds collide as the arcs for Wasp and the Spider-lady herself in[ter]sect in a story from the acclaimed Beast Wars writers Larry DiTillio and Bob Forward! That's right, the Mikes are spinning up the Transformers Animated Season 3 episode "Predacons Rising"...

We're joined by Fugitive Lita, our favorite Can-Am rogue and #1 Elita-1 fan on the WEB to break down the psychoses of the Op-Lita-Nel triangle. There's no shuriken our responsibilities here, folks, it's pure Accountability p0rn!

So hold onto your pistons and ready your...

Nothing good happens in a flashback...

Put on your Trauma shirts, cogs, we're doing "Five Servos of Doom!" It's the seminal Transformers Animated season 3 episode that gives us the Prowl origin story we didn't even know we needed. Now with 80% more DEEP HURTING!*

Yoketron, the protoform vault, P over M--this one really has it all! We dive deep into the Arrival comics written by the Man, The Myth, The Isenberg himself for some extra lore. And, since we're middle-aged white guys hosting a podcast, of course we get existential!

*When compared to other...

Live from New Detroit...it's Saturday Night! The Mikes are once again joined by the triplet (not trio) of Autopod Decepticast to discuss the seminal sequel to their last appearance. That's right, the reunion that was once just a gleam in Caleb's eye has come to fruition...we're breaking down Transformers Animated season 3's "Where Is Thy Sting?"

The fugitive Wasp sets his sights on our resident Bumblebot! Sentinel Prime tries to drive in the rain! New heroes arrive straight outta Kazakhtron! It's a real FACE OFF!

Over a round of Fugitive Edition Stingers, 2M2F...

So a damaged Headmaster unit, a forklift, and an Allspark fragment fall into a pit...stop us if you've heard this one before!

Join the night crew of the Tired Transformers Meme Graveyard as we discuss the Animated season 3 episode "Three's A Crowd!"

There's a new boss in town, crime has ravaged the once peaceful streets of New Detroit, and the only one who can clean it up is Bulkhead. But a familiar pair of blue collar bots want him to say hello to their little friend!

And speaking of three's a crowd...

Lets do the TransWarped again!!

We're back for a third bite of this TransWarped sandwich, discussing Part 3 of Animated's final season opener.

Rodimus and the Rock Lords are in the rearview. All eyes are on Starscream and Megatron, Cybertron's Hottest Divorcées, as they grapple for control of Omega Supreme. Prowl DiCaprio tries some processor inception...but Optimus will be Axe King the questions around here!

Superfriends of the show Abbey and Matty B are back for some surprisingly impactful insights. And stick around for some fantastic Mike B stories involving TFA alum!

Before time began, there was the cube...of Blurr!

Once again, the extended Mikes crew gathers 'round the table, this time to discuss the "Empire" of the TransWarped trilogy. Rock lords gonna rock, Sari....*checks notes*...TRANSFORMS (?!) and things get toyetic at the Burger Bot...you know, the BURGER BOT! 

We also get deep about A.I. and spill a little tea about voice casting. It's the hot dish you didn't know you wanted and we didn't know we were making! Plus, a round up of everyone's fave cameos, deep thoughts, and all your usual f...

David Kaye Hair, Don't Care! We're back for the episode that needs no introduction, but we'll give it a [hot] shot. That's right, folks, the Mikes are finally tackling TransWarped, the Transformers Animated season 3 opener! We haven't had a first five minutes this huge since the show began! But we are not on this journey alone...

Much like the TransWarped itself, we have a massive pantheon of guest stars, both returning and new, to help us unpack what is arguably the biggest episode of Transformers Animated.

Origin stories, hot takes, SNACKS--and, of course, breaking down...

Merry Axe-mas! Put away the sugar plums, the Mikes are sitting down to feast on the Transformers Animated Season 3 episode "Human Error, Part 2."

Newsreel! Auto-Men about town! Our heroes try to free themselves from Soundwave's Matrix-style simulation! In the real world, Sari goes full Die Hard, putting together a crew: the ragtag "Substitute Autobots!"

Heat up the oil nog, folks, because we're talking more holiday memories, music, traditions and toys (plus some SERIOUS axe-play)!

With sugar plums in our heads and oil nog in our cups, the Mikes return for a soft open to Season 3 of Transformers Animated, covering the seminal Christmas special "Human Error, Part 1."

Welcome to the end of the end! Your Tireless Mechanical Mikes return one last time for Season 2 to talk Transformers Animated with Part 2 of "A Bridge Too Close."

Starscream has played his final hand, literally blowing the roof off the underground Decepticon Lair. Optimus and Megatron find themselves back-to-back, rising and rolling respectively against relentless waves of Seekers. As the fight to control the Space Bridge reaches crescendo, big bots--and bigger secrets--finally surface.

Tune in for every galaxy-thundering second and stick around for final thoughts on the season as a whole and (dun dun DUN...

Welcome to the beginning of the end. With CybFest NW in the rearview, the Mikes walk the space bridge less traveled to discuss the (pen)ultimate episode of Transformers Animated Season 2, "A Bridge To Close, Part 1."

You haven't seen this many twists since Blade 2, folks! New allegiances, new characters, new HEADS! This one's got it all...and at the center of everything, an Energon farm boy that never could've dreamed he'd be the most important space bridge technician in the galaxy....

No guests, no frills, no filler. We're back to our roots for this one...

Live from the Kevin McCallister Plain Cheese Studio, the Mikes are joined by #1 Superfan Matthew Barberio! He's outta the mailbag and into the fire as we discuss the Transformers Animated Season 2 episode "Sari, No One's Home."

Prowl, go easy on the Pepsi! Little Miss Sumdac finds herself...domestically solitary when a couple of thirsty Constructicons come looking for a few pints of oil. 

Sigh...look, nobody wanted the return of Fluid Legislation, but here we are. As Sari sets up a house of horrors for Mix and Scrap, the Mikes (and the Matts) go deep o...

Murrow. Cronkite. The 2 Mikes. These are the hard-hitting journalists of a bygone era. Joined by returning fan favorite cohost, Lita, we ask the tough questions about season 2's "Black Friday" - which is, in no way, the horniest episode of Transformers Animated ever.

Looks like the Autobots should've killed Meltdown when they had the chance, because now he's back and slinking around Dinobot Island w/ the Mother of Spiders herself, Blackarachnia!

To be clear, at no point does this episode border on cybertronic hedonism. You will not hear the floor literally drop out from beneath...

Enough shenanigans, cogs, it's time to get down to technomatter tacks! The 2M2F x APDC crossover continues as Aaron, Ryan, and [technically] Caleb bring their final thoughts about "Autoboot Camp" to the table. 

The cadets of the Elite Guard Academy are given names by Sentinel Minor as Bumblebee's wartime flashback continues. Secret boxes and questionable spy technology abound as Long Island Bee tries to catch the traitorous cog in the Autobot machine.  

Join us for old friends, new insights, and some of the great debates of our time, including:
