Autopod Decepticast: A bi-weekly retrospective of the G1 Transformers animated movie and cartoon.

48

The Autopod Decepticast started in 2017 as a minute-by-minute breakdown of the 1986 masterpiece “The Transformers: The Movie.” They have since reviewed “GI Joe: The Movie” and are currently reviewing each episode of the original Transformers animated series. Each episode delivers deep analysis, facts, trivia, and inside information delivered in the APDC’s patented style of low-brow humor.

    I hope this show never stops!
    Aaron, Ryan, and Caleb always bring their top knowledge and most humorous gags to educate and entertain their audience with a variety of expertise and topics! No better place to learn about the G1 Transformers cartoon, the ‘86 movie, random G.I. Joe episodes, and now Beast Wars! Well done, gentlemen! Keep up the great work!

    Rubbing junkion juice on my childhood to bring it back to life
    This podcast is a fun way to be nostalgic about a cartoon I watched as a kid while still getting to be an adult. The chemistry of the three hosts who were childhood friends while the show was on the air and are still pals makes it even more enjoyable.

    When did Huffer get a Jett mode?
    Great podcast. Script deviations might be my favorite part. While they can get caught in the odd tangent, they usually keep on track. I recently went back and listened to the bonus episodes which I initially skipped. I think the “Starcream Brigades” Jazz cameo might be my favorite APDC…thing? Really enjoyed the 2007 movie review, though it didn’t change my opinion. However, their consistent enjoyment of season 3 has made me do a 180 (though I’m glad we agree about Surprise Party). Looking forward to Beast Wars season 1 (my favorite other than Coming of the Fuzors). I hope the other cohosts enjoy it as much as Ryan does and don’t waste time on “oh this looks terrible”. 9/10 I need to buy a thesaurus.

    Transformers?
    Most of the talk is about anything BUT the episodes the title says they’re covering.

    Great podcast
    I’ve been listening to y’all for a wile now I’m on episode 150. Trying to get caught up. I came into the transformers franchise with armada. The first experience I had with g1 was the 20th anniversary of the movie. And then got the series on dvd and have watched them so much.but loved the way you guys talked about the movie and love how your doing the g1 show and love the bits Ryan dose at the end of the episodes keep it up guys!

    Amazing show with amazing hosts
    I started listening to the show when my daughter was born and this podcast got me through the last year. I can tell these guys are passionate about the Transformers, their personal lives, and each other, and it’s been a pleasure listening to several years of content. I strongly recommend this podcast to everyone with anyone even slightly interested in the Transformers, because you will not be disappointed. PS, i ran the review through a language translator like 50 times and this was the result She began to show that she was born a young girl, and that she became the last year of her life. The transformation of these children cannot be placed, personal life, and any other children in the years of information are very happy. He is a subordinate because he is a little interest in transformers, the party's subsidy because of the silence.

    I subbed after one, backed after 5
    I have literally two complaints about this show: Two hosts have far too similar of voices and I’m not sure which is which, and, they can’t pronounce Toei (toe-eh, boys). I love everything else they do and I hope for a million further episodes.

    I’ve made it through a lot of Transformers podcasts, & this is the DEFINITIVE one when it comes to the 1980s cartoon (& movie!). The hosts are incredibly entertaining, & focus mostly on the stories, characters, & animation, rather than the actual toys. Plenty of fun banter, real-world factoids, Jeopardy-style games, & irreverent humor are mixed into these discussions about a Reagan-era children’s show.

    The theme song slaps. A total banger. My only request is that they make the world a better place by releasing the Real World audition tape.
  • Gotaiger
    Come for the transformers. Stay for the humans.
    These guys are a lot of fun, and while their off-color humor may not be for everyone, their camaraderie is infectious. I learned about this podcast a month ago and am now fully caught up. Cheers!

    Awesome Show
    Very fun podcast. These guys are super relatable and hilarious. Sometimes I wish they’re episodes were longer.

    Some things great, some not so much
    This is really the only show I was able to find where they talk about the G1 Transformers series with the nerdy minutiae I crave. I’m that respect, they kill it. However, I’m starting with earlier episodes and there’s a lot of meandering conversation at the top of the show, sometimes going on for nearly an hour before they get into the actual episode recap. That’s fine if you’re into that but I wish they’d either do that stuff at the end or at least put a time stamp in the show notes indicating where the recap starts. Also, I don’t drink and talking about drinking kinda bores me, and they spend a lot of time up front chatting about whatever cocktail they’re making and I just…I don’t care. Again, to each their own but I just wish they’d include in the show notes where the recap starts because that’s what I want and they do that really well. I get that maybe I’m not the audience for this show but also, I’m totally the audience for this show, so do with that what you will I guess.

    Great show!!!
    Great podcast. Fun and well made!

    Wouldn’t change a thing
    The slow roll into the episode breakdowns is actually my favorite part. These 3 just telling ridiculous stories from their past is always a highlight. 3/5 stars. Wouldn’t change a thing
  • J Soops
    Just TRY the first 85 episodes...
    then make up your mind! Honestly, if you’re a Transformers lover, especially the movie (THE movie) and the G1 cartoon, then you need to listen to these guys. They’re witty, they’re talented, they’re informed, and they get it. Give it a listen.

    I’m pretty sure we would have all had a better time on that float trip if we hadn’t taken Ryan. Also, we only floated for about 4 hours.

    The 11 month binge.
    Looking for anything to take my mind off the plague of 2020 I stumbled upon this podcast last April. Working in the medical equipment field at that particular moment in time was particularly overwhelming, as orders poured in from hospitals all over the country, and this podcast quite possibly kept me sane. 11 months later I am completely caught up and feel confident in saying this podcast is fantastic. Kudos to you gentlemen! Its been a blast so far.

    Hey!
    You guys got my most listened to podcast of the year on Spotify! Thanks for all that you do
  • Perpetual_Dark_Matter
    These dudes are exceptionally underrated
    I appreciate the work they have put in and have been listening since episode one. Anyone that would give them one star should get kicked in the bottom-cheeks. It’s good to hear a review of the movie and shows from people that don’t know every single thing about the characters and aren’t pretentious dbags... well at least two of them aren’t. They were prob the only ones that bathed before going to the last TFCon..... give em some credit
  • prowlestator
    One of the best!
    All my favorite podcasts draw you in and feel like they’re talking to you, like you’re one of the gang. This is one of the best at doing that. I always feel like I’m in on the joke, and love the extra segments like trivia and what was going on in pop culture when the episode was released. I always look forward to this every couple of weeks and wish they released episodes more frequently!

    Don’t let kids listen!!!
    There is way too much swearing in these podcasts. This is a kids movie. The people should treat what they say as if kids are listening. I loved this movie and was thrilled to see a minutes podcast about and tried to hold out but after 28 episodes I couldn’t take the swearing anymore. Please don’t let your kids listen to this podcast

    Engaging, fun and knowledge filled podcast
    I recently binged listened to the Autopod Decepticast show and I am impressed with the overall production. Created by three life-long friends Caleb, Ryan and Aaron, the show dissects minute-by-minute The Transformers: The Movie. In-between the jokes and jovial banter, the listener learns about the voice actors, production process including the writing (in the segment Script Deviations), art direction, music, and how it ties into the larger pop culture scene of the ‘80s and beyond. The guys also bring up how our culture has changed since the ‘80s and point out what isn’t pc. I never knew that Transformers and the people who created it has had such an impact on so many shows, movies, video games and more. You guys are killing it with the show and have created a distinct voice in the Transformers fandom. Keep it up! ;)

    Hilarious
    What a funny, entertaining podcast. Thank you for doing the MTMTE episode by episode reviews. I love it and hope you continue!

    I’m a huge fan of this podcast. Not only are the guys hilarious on the show but I’ve interacted with them on Twitter a couple of times and they are amazing. If your a TF fan this is definitely the perfect place to learn more about the characters we all love so much. I’ve already forced my friends to listen to it as well. Keep it up guys!
  • CecilAdkins
    Best Podcast Ever
    This is the one podcast that I have to listen to as soon as a new episode comes out. I started listening about a year into the podcast but caught up pretty quickly and I’ve enjoyed every minute. I was sad to see the Transformers movie commentary end but was pleasantly surprised to learn they were going to be covering my OTHER favorite childhood franchise. I’ve enjoyed the GI Joe The Movie episodes as much as the Transformers ones. Keep up the great work, guys... can’t wait to see what you tackle next!

    A Podcast to Deal with
    Finally!!! A podcast dedicated to The Transformers: The Movie (1986) Aaron, Ryan, and Caleb are genuinely funny. Two things I LOVE about this podcast is that they’ve known each other since childhood for 30 years & they’re TRUE fans of Transformers (Love your collection, Aaron) This is definitely a party podcast of honest laughs & fun segments. They’re not afraid to be themselves (After Dark with Ryan Lol!) or mess up, which are the down-to-earth moments that I really love. This is Truly a passion project come to life. My ultimate favorite thing to do is JAM out to their amazing theme song (Great job Caleb)! I hope you guys make it available soon, I’ll buy it please! In conclusion, I hope these guys continue to do more & hope to meet them one day. Your Pal, David Cabal

    Opposite of unchrasomatic
    This podcast provides the best commentary for the 1986 Transformers movie, as the hosts tackle every small detail minute to minute. And it's hilarious. I usually listen while working around the house, and my wife often wonders why I randomly burst out laughing. Once you listen, you'll never watch the movie the same way again. If you like the original Transformers, you'll love this podcast.

    Under Pressure
    Since I'm on the phone with one of the hosts, I suppose I should leave a review. But, seriously folks, I look forward to this podcast. You could jump in at any episode and enjoy this sweet jam. Also, Caleb is pretty effing funny.

    We only wish
    You were doing season one instead so you could extoll the virtues of Lambros doing JET JUDO! Keep it up. Very entertaining! -Close Countach

    Top-Notch Transformers Podcasting!
    This podcast is a fun and informative romp through the awesome 1986 Transformers movie . The podcast-per-minute format was new to me. But it turns out that it's a brilliant way of giving Transformers fans (old and new, alike) many more hours of humor and entertainment. Thanks for doing this, guys! RD and Jay @Galaxy_Rangers

  • Sergebomba
    A great minute by minute podcast!
    Fun podcast with guys who know and love the material - the right sort of length for a podcast that tackles a movie by the minute, they riff and drop knowledge and just have a lot of fun. Hard to dislike an effort like this; glad I found this right off the bat and will be sticking around til (all are one?) it ends. :)
  • deezfingers
    Funny AND informative
    These guys manage to tie in a bunch of TF topics in an interesting and informative way, all the while being very entertaining. I recommend for TF fans AND non-TF fans alike!
