What is TransMissions Extra!?
We usually spend the first 30 minutes of our TransMissions Skype call talking about other random topics before we record the main show. TransMissions Extra! is a more organized discussion of these topics recorded into a short podcast of its own. We hope you enjoy TransMissions Extra!

Gotta agree with Yoshi on this one. Aside from being informative, a podcast also has to be entertaining as far as I’m concerned. And let’s be honest, some are just boring as hell. You guys give a lot of great information, but also make me laugh every week. And that’s just as important!
Thanks for the kind words Ralph! Hope we continue to make you laugh.
totally agree with ya’ll there’s gotta be something that catches the ear something that hooks you and reels you in. the hummer and loving rips on each other and all the awesome info is why I choose to listen to a few more episodes. I got in to listening to podcast around july last year. music in general was pissing me off. pandora would eventually replay a song that I heard earlier and so on. a friend told me about an app called podcast addict and afew suggestions nerdist, smodcast, and a couple others. I found in smodcast, a cast called fatman on batman. if your into batman give it a listen. we’re alive a story of survival is a good zombie cast. then one day i was like how far out can I go out with this and started looking for other podcast and found turtle soup the ongoing journey of the TMNT and optimusprimecast transformers beast wars podcast. only three episodes in sweet but only two guys do it. so things fell behind cuz life ya know but that is when i found ya’ll and my wife is home so im out.
Ah, the life of a closet podcast listener… you can never let the wife know you listen to things other than her.
Great topic! It was good to hear you guys’ insight on the whole podcasting experience. Some fearlessly controversial opinions in this one!
And Darryl: I couldn’t agree more about Cybertronological. It’s a brilliant idea and I’ve been listening to those guys from day one. Thoroughly entertaining, that podcast.
If you’re looking to “borrow” ideas from other pods, might I recommend game shows like those sometimes found on a Smodcast Network podcast called “Tell’em Steve-Dave”. You could put a Transformers twist on the games and include listeners as contestants.
Gotta keep’em happy and everybody always said I’m a good listener
Hey guys Long Time No Comments! Due to my PC going down with a power supply going out I haven’t been able to comment on your episodes. Granted I still have been able to listen thanks to my Podcast Addict app on my phone. It is time to finally make up some ground.
As for this episode all I can say is the Transmissions Podcast is the best in terms of Transformers in my book. I mostly say this because you guys STAY ON TOPIC!!! Most others talk about all kinds of things when it suppose to be a Transformers Podcast. TFW2005 and Moonbase seems to talk about other things for 10 20 even 30 minutes between topics. I not saying it is a problem but it does drive me a little crazy. Don’t get me wrong they do go into some good details on Transformers topics on figures and such, which is good mind. But these instants get annoying to me.
I love the way you guys talk all things Transformers. Though yes you do go off topic from time to time, but you guys go right back in a minute 2 or even 5 at the most. I will always listen to you guys first and foremost over all the others.
I also have a question. At the end of the stream there is the audio from something where it says “Fire Everything!!!” Where is that from? I haven’t been able to figure out where it is from and I am dieing to know.
