This week on the podcast, we’re spinning to win with Captain Shrederator, fresh off a big match against The King of Kinetic Energy himself, Ray Billings and Tombstone. BattleBots Season 6 kicked off this past week, and we share our thoughts on the season premiere.


We are brought to you today by MaxAmps and their new line of “Max Combat” Robotics Batteries. These battle-ready batteries are available for 1, 3, 12, and 30 lb bots and feature a custom wrap with your team logo, internal hard skins for extra protection, and puncture resistant wire sleeves. Check them out at maxamps.com!
