Four Million Years LaterFour Million Years LaterFMYL 98.4 - THE GRAND FINALEWe've arrived at the LAST episode (for awhile)! Here we just talk about how it slowly came together and how it almost didn't happen, and what Jerzy and I were doing in relation to TFs from Rebirth to essentially today. It's THE SECRET ORIGIN OF FOUR MILLION YEARS LATER! And it comes with pictures from College Hoover's TF strips and fanfics from the late 1990s!! Transformers Generation 3, Page 1: https://jdrozd.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Hoov-Generation-3-scaled.jpg The Wonderful Cybertronian Adventures of Shockwave: https://jdrozd.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Hoov-Shockwave-1.jpg2023-01-051h 28Four Million Years LaterFour Million Years LaterFMYL 98.2 - SEASON 4 DECEPTICONSThis time we take time out to discuss all the new DECEPTICONS from the REBIRTH miniseries... and amazingly, JERZY has more to say about them than the AUTOBOTS!

This time we take time out to discuss all the new AUTOBOTS from the REBIRTH miniseries... believe it or not, we still had things to say about these characters we barely spent any time with! How did HOOVER have so many of them? How did JERZY survive not getting the first SPIKE figure?? And how did either of them live without owning any MONSTERBOTS?

Well, HASBRO tries to win parents back after forcing the death of a loved one on their children months ago! How does it go? Well, we got some good, we got some bad. And we got a HATE PLAGUE turning everyone red and mean-spirited. What do we do when we need a hero? Does a lower ranked AUTOBOT rise from the ranks and prove themselves, saving the day? NO, WE'RE NOT HERE TO BUILD CHARACTER, WE'RE HERE TO BRING BACK THE DEAD.

And it's up to RODIMUS, SPRINGER, and ULTRA MAGNUS to team up with THE PREDACONS and get to the bottom of it. Have we finally gotten the TRAPPED IN A CAVE episode Hoover has wanted for so long?
