Transformers: Dark of the Moon (Part One)

July 19, 2023 23:00 - 1 hour - 76.7 MB

Well, it happened. We recorded so long that we had to split an episode into two parts. In this episode, we discuss the first two acts of the only good Michael Bay Transformers movie, and even then we only discuss the bad parts. Also included, Cj reads a book to the class!

Happy 4th of July, everyone! We inturrupt our regularly scheduled Transformers run to bring you the most patriotic thing we could think of: a man committing high treason just to be able to say I told you so.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

June 29, 2023 22:00 - 2 hours - 99.1 MB

Well, this is it. The bad one. Cj and Gage yell at each other for having different opinions about one specific fight, and Cj stops trying to explain Transformers Lore, because Bay never tried to use it anyway.  Visit our Website! https://cathemango.buzzsprout.com/ Follow Us on Instagram!

Transformers (2007)

June 21, 2023 23:00 - 2 hours - 105 MB

We honestly don't know who this was harder for - Gage during recording, or Cj during editing. Join us as we dive right into Michael Bay's first attempt at making a Transformers Movie, as Cj defends the good, berates the bad, and is overwhelmed by surprise that this movie is not as good as he remembered.

June 09, 2023 00:00 - 8 minutes - 6.16 MB

Last minute bonus episode, anyone? Cj saw the newest transformers movie on his own today, and wanted to share his first impressions in a spoiler free review. Honestly, this might be the most laid back episode we are capable of producing. Tune in this Monday for the full review!

April 03, 2023 21:00 - 2 hours - 104 MB

You walk into a tavern and see a podcaster sitting in a dark corner. He turns his gaze upon you as you make your approach, cautiously.

Unnerving. That's the best word to describe this movie. Unhinged. That's the best way to describe Gage and CJ while recording this episode. Unyielding. That's the best way to describe the conflicting opinions of what actually happened in this movie. Brace yourselves, its a wild ride.
