RoboSkullCast: A Robotech Podcast

Nick and Shamus revisit the 80's sci-fi epic, Robotech. Nick watches the series for the first time and Shamus guides him through it. Perfect for fans new to Robotech or longtime protoculture addicts.

  1. 86

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 86: Robotech: Rick Hunter #4

    Vince knows everyone in issue 4 of Titan Comics' Robotech: Rick Hunter mini-series. Zeraal's fully dedicated to the cause, Rick's new jet defies all notions of physics and Friend-Rolf takes his lunch break to help the team.

  2. 85

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 85: Robotech: Rick Hunter #3

    We pay tribute to voice actor Greg Finley (Gloval, Leonard) before discussing issue 3 of Titan Comics' Robotech: Rick Hunter mini-series. Gloval appears and thus the issue is a 10/10, we learn the origin of the upside down Minmei poster, and was Vince the Robotech narrator all along?

  3. 84

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 84: Rebecca Forstadt at ProtocultureCon 2018

    Way back in 2018 Shamus attended ProtocultureCon and recorded the Q/A panel with Rebecca Forstadt (Minmei.) She spoke about the song she auditioned with, how she also doesn't like "My Time to Be a Star," and more.  Nick and Shamus also discuss 2024 news and explain why it took so long to release this audio.

  4. 83

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 83: Robotech: Rick Hunter #2

    Rick talks with Gloval and that's all we need to know in issue 2 of Titan Comics' Robotech: Rick Hunter mini-series. Gloval has a wife (that isn't Pipey?!), Rick hits the tiger jackpot, and Vince unsuccessfully attempts to eat a steak.

  5. 82

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 82: Robotech: Rick Hunter #1

    Rick needs a LOT of arrow diagrams in issue 1 of Titan Comics' Robotech: Rick Hunter mini-series. Rick can't remember names, we need to know who this new Khyron-loving Zentraedi is, and Corrective Lenses Mitch has a family member?!

  6. 81

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 81: The Outtakes

    It's 100% pure RoboSkull Cast as we dig out all the previously exclusive outtakes from our Patreon for the public! There's a Crisis on Infinite Gloval's, Khyron and Grell get malware, and we update on where we've been and what's next!

  7. 80

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 80: Robotech: Love Live Alive

    Lancer was the narrator all along in Robotech: Love Live Alive. Big Lancer Energy is in full effect, Rick starts a Twitch channel, and we give our thoughts on the entire Robotech saga!

    Dr. Lang is suddenly a main character in Robotech II: The Sentinels. Lisa is finally feeling herself, Rick REALLY wants Ben to still be alive, and there's someone they call Miriya here but we don't know why.

  10. 77

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 77: Robotech: The Movie

    Even with all the Southern Cross footage we actually dug Robotech: The Movie! Edwards can call the Robotech Masters on the phone, Leonard and Emerson are our FAVORITE CHARACTERS, and we get into a very deep discussion about what makes this movie unique and special in the Robotech franchise.   Trigger warning for a discussion of attempted sexual assault.

  11. 76

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 76: Symphony of Light

    Annie has the greatest moment of character growth on episode 85 of Robotech, Symphony of Light. The Invid get lots of exposition, Scott doesn't remember Lunk, and we give our thoughts on the whole New Gen saga!

  12. 75

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 75: Dark Finale

    Rick Hunter is TOTALLY GONNA BE HERE GUYS, WE SWEAR, on episode 84 of Robotech, Dark Finale. Lunk surprisingly gets some good moments, Annie drives Jeep Jeep, and we discover the true mastermind behind Jerk Hunter.

  13. 74

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 74: Reflex Point

    Sue Graham is suddenly a very important character on episode 83 of Robotech, Reflex Point. We deeply analyze Sue's photos, Scott is really all about honoring EVERY SOLDIER, and Rick Hunter is a freak.

  14. 73

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 73: The Big Apple

    Rand and Annie become the ultimate pitch people on episode 82 of Robotech, The Big Apple. Scott still can't figure out Marlene is an Invid, Lunk gets to pilot a mecha, and we read selections from the New Gen novels.

  15. 72

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 72: Hired Gun

    There's a lot of DUST in the AIR in episode 81 of Robotech, Hired Gun. We believe Dusty Ayres is Sean, Rook FINALLY gets another focus episode, and we read the New Gen bios from Robotech Art 1!

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 71: Birthday Blues

    Annie has a really sad backstory (that we talk A LOT about) in episode 80 of Robotech, Birthday Blues. Annie touches our hearts, Corg turns up the Zor Prime, and the Invid go to school.

  17. 70

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 70: Frostbite

    Scott has a lot of trouble zipping up a dress in episode 79 of Robotech, Frostbite. Lancer and Lunk should be friends, Annie LOVES peppermint, and Minmei is back.

  18. 69

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 69: Ghost Town

    Lancer can't keep up the Big Lancer Energy in episode 78 of Robotech, Ghost Town. Admiral Rick Hunter gets named dropped, Annie is twelve, and we learn a lot about the state of Earth in New Gen.

  19. 68

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 68: Robotech Remix #4

    We get some incredible insight into Dana's backstory in issue #4 of Titan Comics' Robotech: Remix series. Bowie commits murder(?), Dana goes full rabbit technology, and Nick reacts to having a column in this issue!

  20. 67

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 67: The Midnight Sun

    There's an extremely elaborate plan in episode 77 of Robotech, The Midnight Sun. Lancer continues to have an intriguing past, Annie is still the best, and all the aliens really need to work on their weakness to emotions.

  21. 66

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 66: Robotech Remix #3

    Louie makes a very important life discovery in issue 3 of Titan Comics' Robotech: Remix series. Cam and Bowie are meant for each other, Rick is a lizard, and Dana doesn't understand anime hair.

  22. 65

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 65: Metamorphosis

    We are joined by Arune Singh (Boom Studios VP, Marketing) to discuss Big Lancer Energy in episode 76 of Robotech, Metamorphosis. Most of the New Gen cast want to sleep with each other, Lancer continues to be beyond gorgeous, and Arune discusses his history as a Robotech fan which leads everyone to discuss fandom in general. Trigger warning for this episode for mentions of suicide. 

  23. 64

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 64: Robotech Remix #2

    Boy Nova is canon in issue 2 of Titan Comics' Robotech: Remix series. Miriya references some deep-cut Zentradi lore, the kids are the best, and Sammie is a giant. Bless this comic.

  24. 63

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 63: Separate Ways

    The entire budget was spent on the transformation sequence in episode 75 of Robotech, Separate Ways. Scott still isn't the main character, Lunk loves his Jeep Jeep, and Rand listens to Rick Hunter's tapes. We also briefly discuss the Solar Flare Games board games and the PS2 video games!

  25. 62

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 62: Robotech Remix #1

    Dana is finally the star after so long in issue 1 of Titan Comics' Robotech: Remix series! Louie is 100% gamer trash, Bowie's Minmei pajama's are adorable, and Cam has the best glasses.

  26. 61

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 61: Interview w/ Brenden Fletcher

    We are joined by Brenden Fletcher, writer on the upcoming Titan Comics' Robotech: Remix series. Brenden talks his history as a hardcore Robotech fan, the 'Curtain Call' story, and some MAJOR hints at what's to come. Don't forget to pick up Robotech: Remix #1!

  28. 59

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 59: Titan Comics Robotech #24

    It's the end of Event Horizon in issue 24 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Rick has no idea what marriage is, Khyron finishes the series out with fabulous hair, and Gloval is reunited with his one true love.

  29. 58

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 58: Annie's Wedding

    Annie is the Robotech narrator we all need in episode 74 of Robotech, Annie's Wedding. Scott has way too much confidence in rafts, the Invid get a new form, and Lancer is beyond flawless, gorgeous, and immaculate.

  30. 57

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 57: Titan Comics Robotech #23

    Dana talks to Persy and it's amazing in issue 23 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Even in the future Rick is an idiot,  Dana has a bad memory, and Max is in full Cam Clarke mode.

  31. 56

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 56: Sandstorm

    Rand's dream is bonkers on episode 73 of Robotech, Sandstorm. Scott's a jerk, Lancer has sick burns, and Annie's in a dream so she can do anything.

  32. 55

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 55: Titan Comics Robotech #22

    Deep cuts to old Robotech comics AND Robotech: The Movie? Issue 22 of Titan Comics' Robotech gives us the goods. Little Bowie is the best, Max never fails to sound like Cam Clarke, and we go in-depth on the Harmony Gold/Tatsunoko renewal news. Plus all things Robotech: Remix!

  33. 54

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 54: The Fortress

    Annie and Rand are the best duo on episode 72 of Robotech, The Fortress. Annie tries out skiing, Lunk drinks protoculture, and Scott casually sends a child on a dangerous mission.

  34. 53

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 53: Titan Comics #21

    We finally get the Max/Miriya dynamic we've always wanted in issue 21 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Dana is back, everyone has cute noses, and we get perhaps the deepest cut reference so far?

  35. 52

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 52: The Secret Route

    We can't decide if we like Lancer more or less on episode 71 of Robotech, The Secret Route. Lancer white knights in the worst possible way, Annie maybe likes the name Mint, and Rick takes the Kobayashi Maru.

  36. 51

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 51: Enter Marlene

    Scott turns up the angst on episode 70 of Robotech, Enter Marlene. Diagrams are complicated for Annie, Rick Hunter takes "wolf squadron" too literally, and we go really deep into an alternate take on this episode.

  37. 50

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 50: Titan Comics Issue #20 and FCBD

    All our wildest timeline dreams come true in issue 20 and the FCBD issue of Titan Comics' Robotech series! Dana returns, Gloval becomes a doctor, and Minmei has the greatest facial expression ever.

  38. 49

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 49: The Genesis Pit

    Annie might be a Invid spy on episode 69 of Robotech, The Genesis Pit. Rand is smarter than we thought, Scott trusts dinosaurs, and Annie pilots Lunk like a mecha.

  39. 48

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 48: Titan Comics Robotech #19

    Gloval makes his triumphant return (in all his glory) in issue 19 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Kyle's a "paci-fist", Lang chooses a soda, and we discuss all the news out of Wondercon!

  40. 47

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 47: Eulogy

    Scott loves Jonathan Wolfe just as much as Rick Hunter on episode 68 of Robotech, Eulogy. Annie is still our favorite character, Rand takes over as the main character, and Nick and Shamus discuss the Robotech Free Comic Book Day preview pages.

  41. 46

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 46: Titan Comics Robotech #18

    Simon Furman writes the most Khyron line ever in issue 18 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Clones run amuck, maybe the Masters are all behind this, and Gloval finally gets his own movie. You can support RoboSkull Cast on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/roboskullcast

  42. 45

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 45: Paper Hero

    Lunk REALLY hates mysteries on episode 67 of Robotech, Paper Hero. Annie is too short to ride a motorcycle, Rand shares the spotlight, and, of course, Nick and Shamus geek out over the first cover for the Event Horizon comic.

  43. 44

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 44: Titan Comics Robotech #17

    We get the simplest explanation for Protoculture ever in issue 17 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Lisa wants Karl to shave his beard, Lang's timeline shenanigans send us into more deep theories, and the deepest cut Robotech references yet.

  44. 43

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 43: Hard Times

    Rand is a comedic genius on episode 66 of Robotech, Hard Times. Rook deals with her past, Ben and Marlene team-up, and Rand has the funniest line in all of Robotech.

  45. 42

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 42: Curtain Call

    Annie is a loud mouth pest (and we love her) on episode 65 of Robotech, Curtian Call. Lancer talks over his own vocals, Lunk wants to be more important, and the Invid get a helpline.

  46. 41

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 41: Titan Comics Robotech #16

    Zand is all about semantics in issue 16 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Rick gets to be an action hero, we discuss changes to the timeline in-depth (of course), and bring Khyron to Disneyland.

  47. 40

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 40: Titan Comics Robotech #15

    Kyle is back (and we don't totally hate him!) in issue 15 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Roy is still doing that ominous voice, Max flirts in only the way Max can, and the Invid's pincers make a surprise appearance!

  48. 39

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 39: Survival

    Scott wants to marry his Alpha Fighter on episode 64 of Robotech, Survival. We know exactly where this Rook and Rand hate thing is going, the SDF-3 is more screwed than we realized, and our longest stinger ever.

  49. 38

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 38: Titan Comics Robotech #14

    Nick and Shamus' theories were (sort of) right in issue 14 of Titan Comics' Robotech series. Lazlo Zand brings the Dimension in SDF-1, Kyle spins a sandwich board for peace, and Percy basically turns into a Power Ranger.

  50. 37

    RoboSkull Cast Episode 37: Lonely Soldier Boy

    Rook's got a swelled head, JEEPERS, on episode 63 of Robotech, Lonely Soldier Boy. Rand's sassy as hell, Lancer is incredibly progressive, and Lunk is somehow... not an anime character?!
