RoboCast #125 — BattleBots: World Championship VII - Ultimate Preview

In this podcast, I am joined by Steve, the AmericanKilljoy and World of Woodrow as we talk our way through the changes to BattleBots, the 57 robots listed on the BattleBots website, and all things new season as we do our yearly ultimate preview! We are joined by DavidofSmeg in order to pick our way through the finer details of the World Championship 7 field.   Be sure to check us out on iTunes and Spotify too! Simply search “The RoboCast” on either of those platforms, and listen to us on the go!   Let us know what your thoughts on the new season’s machines and the changes made to the show and competition! Remember: be civil and respectful, if there’s anything I deem to be too much, you’ll be sure to know about it 😊 Let us know in the comments!   Time Stamps: 00:00 – Introduction 02:00 – The gang’s trip to Las Vegas attending filming 05:58 – Changes to the format and rules 16:43 – Banshee 19:37 – Beta 24:05 – Big Dill 28:02 – Black Dragon 31:53 – Blip 35:25 – Bloodsport 41:05 – Captain Shrederator 44:03 – Claw Viper 47:25 – Cobalt 52:17 – Copperhead 56:12 – Death Roll 59:36 – Doom 1:01:25 – Doomba 1:03:17 – Double Tap 1:06:23 – Dragon King 1:10:18 – Emulsifier 1:15:08 – End Game 1:19:03 – Free Shipping 1:23:01 – Fusion 1:27:05 – Gigabyte 1:31:48 – Glitch 1:35:47 – Gruff 1:38:39 – HiJinx 1:43:00 – Horizon 1:46:58 – HUGE 1:52:06 – Hydra 1:56:06 – Hypershock 2:02:26 – Jackpot 2:06:24 – Kraken 2:11:50 – Lockjaw 2:16:12 – Lucky 2:20:24 – MadCatter 2:24:32 – Malice 2:28:54 – Mammoth 2:33:19 – Minotaur 2:38:29 – Monsoon 2:43:27 – Ominous 2:46:46 – Overhaul 2:50:00 – Quantum 2:55:00 – Ribbot 2:58:58 – Ripperoni 3:04:06 – Riptide 3:07:01 – RotatoR 3:10:33 – Rusty Jr. 3:13:48 – SawBlaze 3:17:31 – Shatter! 3:20:53 – SHREDDIT BRO! 3:26:10 – Skorpios 3:30:51 – Slammo! 3:34:01 – Starchild 3:39:09 – Switchback 3:42:37 – Tantrum 3:47:55 – Terrortops 3:50:55 – Triton 3:55:05 – Valkyrie 3:58:59 – Whiplash 4:02:51 – Witch Doctor 4:05:45 – Closing thoughts and outro     Jevan’s Rules video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-VLU-e63pU&t Also, a HUGE shoutout to the Seaborg, who designed my fantastic new channel icon and podcast logo!
