Get ready to travel across the galaxies with your friendly combination robot and the Millennium Falcon where we review Mighty Orbots and Solo: A Star Wars Story!

(0:00 – 52:00) Review: Mighty Orbots – This was a series that has taken years to be put out on DVD, and both Jonn and Dustin jump on the chance to review this great 80’s Saturday Morning Anime co-production cartoon! We’re actually not the only podcast to cover this show, as Anime 82 did it well over a decade ago that no one seemed to notice because of how obscure it was at the time. This also includes the voice actors that worked on this show like the late Gary Owens, other 1980’s cartoons talk, if Orbots had their own Soul of Chogokun toys, getting a hold of the Techno Police 21c Bluray if you order the Blade robot online, if Orbots and God Mars are a fair comparison and much more!

(52:00 – 53:25) Right Stuf Promo: Dustin babbles on for a minute to convince you the listener to buy everything and everything from Right Stuf!, because you totally should, and we should TOTALLY GET PAID (but we kid since the review material we receive is very sufficient, so thank you Right Stuf!)

(53:25 – 1:32:15) Review: Solo: A Star Wars Story – Both Jonn and Dustin enjoyed this film despite it coming out a mere few months after that debacle Last Jedi hit the main screens, which the hosts own review to this movie is very positive in general. This also gets the hosts talking about how Disney might screw up Star Wars in the future and that Han really did shoot first in the cantina.

(1:32:15 – 2:11:45) Closing Remarks – This goes right into the hosts opinions on the Supreme Court decision on Colorado baker case, John McAfee running for the libertarian party in the upcoming election, Tara Strong influence on Teen Titans Go, can President Trump really pardon himself?, the live action American Dad party and much more!
