Listen "Did I Ever Tell You About The Time?"
Episode Synopsis
The Story of Transformers Kup, the Autobot who definitely wasn't too old for this s#!t...The story of Kup is the story of every grizzled old soldier who’s seen too much, survived against the odds, and still has time to tell a few good war stories. From his humble beginnings as a futuristic pickup truck in the 1986 Transformers movie to his haunted breakdown in the IDW comics, Kup has gone from mid-tier toy shelf filler to a war-weary legend of Cybertronian lore. In this episode, we deep-dive into Kup’s evolution across cartoons, comics, and plastic—from his time mentoring Hot Rod, to ripping apart Sharkticons, leading the Wreckers, and even battling zombies in the Las Vegas...or was that all in his head? Either way, grab an energon stick, sit back, and find out why this cranky old ‘bot may just be one of the most compelling Autobots ever created.
