Breaking Bots

This week we have Jamison Go from Team Sawblaze! We talk about their appearance at Dragon Con, the importance of traction, and who's better at Overwatch, Jamison or David Jin! Then we get into the fight card including HUGE's HUGE win!

It's the Gruff and Ribbot special double feature! We have Sam McAmis and Jason Ryan from Team Gruff to discuss the controversial descision with Tombstone and what improvements we may see to Gruff next year. Then we have David, Karl, and Tim from Team Ribbot (@42:30) on to talk about what goes into making a frog themed robot and how to play mind games in the pits with their modular setup! As always we finish up with the Studs and Duds of the week!

This week Jen Herchenroeder returns to the podcast once more to join the threepeat club! We talk about Battle Royale w/ Cheese and the problems that continued to plague them last season, the success of the Little Pink Camaro in the PPPRS, and of course her new team and getting off to such a hot start!

We have a large, gigantic, enormous, colossal, dare I say.... HUGE! episode this week! We talk about HUGE!'s near victory over Bite Force last year, all the different changes they made for this year, and what it's like for a plan to come together..... and actually work!

We're back! After a couple of weeks off for vacation, we welcome Andre AKA Dracophile from Battlebots Update to the pod! We talk about his history in combat robotics, how Battblebots Update came to be, and we find out once again if a hot dog in a bun is a sandwich!

This week we get to talk to one of the younger Battlebots captains from this season, John Flaake from team Extinguisher. We find out what it's like to be an alternate for Battlebots, the parils of a cross country drive hauling three killer robots, and of course, a quiz!

We finally have the Gruff boys on after missing them twice! We talk about why Gruff is so strong, what we can expect from the flame thrower (when it works) and which team member is going to be played by Mel Gibson in the not real at all Battlebots movie! And also we run down that weeks fight card to discuss an actual hammer bot that works!

We are greeted this week by Hal and Hannah Rucker! We discuss the "controversy" around the Duck! v. Cobalt match, what changes Duck! brought to this season and also Hannah's new bot Marvin and how it came together. There's also a quiz!

Happy throw back Thursday! With Cam being under the weather and Brian buried in work to make up from his vacation, there couldn't be a better time to import this great interview with Hal Rucker from Team Black and Blue! This interview was right after the epic rumble in which many fans thought Duck! got robbed! We discuss just went down, what got said afterwards and some ideas of what could be done to make sure it doesn't happen again!

It's just us two dudes today as we had to record early due to summer vacation! We discuss the matches of this week's Battlebots and how we've personally interviewed alot of these teams! Which bots pulled on our heart strings? Which ones walked the walk? Which ones flat out just laid an egg? And also who we were most and least impressed with, find out now!
