Episode 114 - Roll Out, Nerds!

AUTOBOTS… ROLL OUT! Analese and Rob are heading back to 1986—on the big screen! For the 40th anniversary of The Transformers: The Movie, the Nerd Best Friends met up with listener Ismael for a night of Autobots, Decepticons, an absolutely killer soundtrack, and some childhood trauma that apparently still hits just as hard four decades later. Was it everything we remembered? Does the animation still hold up? And seriously… how did an entire generation of kids survive THIS movie?! We’re talking favorite moments, iconic characters, the music, the nostalgia, and what it’s like experiencing The Transformers: The Movie in a theater 40 years after its original release. Whether you grew up yelling “Autobots, roll out!” or you’re discovering the movie for the first time, grab your Energon cubes and nerd out with us.
