This week on the podcast, we catch up with Bloodsport Captain Justin Marple! He talks about his fast and furious run on BattleBots season 5 so far, the major lessons he learned after competing with Bloodsport 1.0 last year, his start with Vex Robotics, and how it feels to knock out some of the top-rated bots in the competition. 

 

Plus! We recap the 8th episode of BattleBots Season 5 and make our predictions for episode 9.
