Welcome Back Radical Ones! ⚡️

STAR WARS SUMMER continues as Ryan and David jump into one of the most debated adventures in a galaxy far, far away with SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY (2018)!

What starts as a simple escape quickly turns into train robberies, criminal syndicates, and enough questionable life choices to explain exactly how Han Solo became Han Solo. Along the way, he meets Chewbacca, crosses paths with Lando Calrissian, acquires the Millennium Falcon, and begins building the reputation that will one day make him a legend.

Meanwhile, Chewbacca proves he’s the most reliable friend in the galaxy, Lando proves he’s the best-dressed man in space, and Han begins the journey that will one day launch a decades-long argument that no Star Wars fan will ever win: Who shot first?

Join us Radical Ones as we revisit the origin of everyone’s favorite scruffy-looking nerf herder in a fun, action-packed adventure filled with smugglers, scoundrels, daring heists, and enough capes to fill an entire cargo hold.

“Solo: A Star Wars Story follows a young Han Solo as he embarks on a series of dangerous adventures in the galaxy’s criminal underworld, meeting Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian, and acquiring the Millennium Falcon along the way. Blending space Western flair with heists and character origins, it offers eye-catching visuals, fun action, and world-building that will appeal to Star Wars fans and newcomers alike—though some find its pacing uneven and story predictable.”

Stars: Alden Ehrenreich, Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke, Donald Glover, Thandiwe Newton, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Joonas Suotamo, and Paul Bettany.

Join Ryan and returning guest co-host Cadu as they revisit both live-action Scooby-Doo films, discussing the cast, the mysteries, the monsters, the laughs, and why these movies have become beloved nostalgic favorites for an entire generation of fans.

Whether you’re hearing this episode for the first time or taking another ride in the Mystery Machine, grab some Scooby Snacks and celebrate 24 years of Scooby-Doo (2002) with us!

"Zoinks! Two years after a clash of egos forced Mystery Inc. to close its doors, Scooby-Doo and his clever crime-solving cohorts Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Shaggy (Matthew Lillard) and Velma (Linda Cardellini) are individually summoned to Spooky Island to investigate a series of paranormal incidents at the ultra-hip Spring Break hot spot."

Then

"In the live-action sequel, the lovable dog Scooby-Doo once again joins his pals Shaggy (Matthew Lillard), Velma (Linda Cardellini), Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.) and Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar) as they stumble into another seemingly supernatural mystery. In addition to facing off against various monsters that are tormenting their town, the gang must deal with television journalist Heather Jasper-Howe (Alicia Silverstone), who is out to discredit their investigations."

Welcome Back Radical Ones! ⚡️

STAR WARS SUMMER continues as Ryan and David arrive at the explosive finale of George Lucas’ prequel trilogy with "STAR WARS EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH" from 2005!

What starts as an exciting rescue mission quickly spirals into galactic tragedy as Chancellor Palpatine spends two hours telling Anakin Skywalker to make increasingly terrible life choices, Obi-Wan Kenobi desperately tries to keep the entire Jedi Order functioning by himself, and R2-D2 once again proves he is the most competent character in the franchise.

Meanwhile, Anakin discovers that trying to prevent the future is a lot like a cursed genie wish, Palpatine screams about unlimited power, Luke and Leia become victims of the galaxy’s strangest Parent Trap arrangement! Along the way, we discuss Jedi hair evolution, General Grievous’ legendary cough, Yoda taking on the most dangerous Sith Lord in the galaxy, Chewbacca casually revealing he knew Yoda all along, and the famous Darth Vader “NOOOOOOO!” heard across the stars.

Join the Radical Ones as we witness the fall of the Republic, the rise of Darth Vader, and the end of the prequel era in one of the most emotional, meme-able, and endlessly quotable Star Wars adventures ever made.

“Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith takes place as the Clone Wars near their climax, following Obi-Wan Kenobi’s pursuit of a Separatist threat while Anakin Skywalker is drawn into a dangerous alliance with Chancellor Palpatine. This decisive chapter reveals the fall of the Republic and the rise of the Empire, blending grand space battles, intense duels, and moral conflict. Praised for its darker tone, emotional weight, and spectacular visuals, it’s considered the strongest entry in the prequel trilogy.”

Stars: Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman, Hayden Christensen, Ian McDiarmid, Samuel L. Jackson, Christopher Lee, Anthony Daniels, Kenny Baker, and Frank Oz.

Welcome Back Radical Ones! ⚡️

STAR WARS SUMMER continues as Ryan and David are joined by friend and guest cohost Zack… making his first non-ThunderCats appearance on the show to revisit what was once HIS favorite film of the prequel trilogy… “STAR WARS EPISODE II: ATTACK OF THE CLONES!” (From 2002)

Yes this movie somehow feels like a detective story, soap opera, romance movie, and giant video game all at the same time. And was Obi-Wan secretly the real star of the entire prequel trilogy? From an explosion powerful enough to blow Padmé’s decoy’s shoes completely off, to floating space pears, awkward romance, Jar Jar Binks somehow getting promoted to politics, and the MANY red flags Anakin Skywalker was giving off long before becoming Darth Vader… this episode is extra long for our Star Wars fans!

Grab your lightsaber, avoid the death sticks, and join us as our journey through every STAR WARS movie and beyond continues all summer long!

“Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones takes place a decade after The Phantom Menace, with the galaxy on the brink of civil war. Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi investigates an assassination attempt while his apprentice Anakin Skywalker protects Senator Padmé Amidala, sparking a deepening connection. With rich visuals, expansive world-building, and pivotal moments in the saga, it offers thrilling action but is sometimes critiqued for stiff dialogue and uneven pacing.”

Stars: Hayden Christensen, Natalie Portman, Ewan McGregor and Christopher Lee.

Welcome Back Radical Ones! ⚡️

This week on Radical Retro Rewind?!, Ryan and David officially kick off Star Wars Summer with one of the most anticipated movies of all time…“Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace” from 1999!

After 16 years without a new live-action Star Wars film, the hype surrounding Episode I was absolutely unreal. From Pepsi cups and Taco Bell promotions to packed toy aisles, VHS previews, posters everywhere, green fruit snacks, and even Jar Jar tongue lollipops, this movie became a full-blown cultural event before it even hit theaters.

From podracing and Darth Maul’s double lightsaber to Duel of the Fates, Queen Amidala’s insane costumes, and early CGI spectacle, the Radical Retro Brothers revisit the movie that changed blockbuster filmmaking forever. And yes… we absolutely discuss whether the podrace still holds up, that R2-D2 has always been sassy, and the bizarre behind-the-scenes fact that Michael Jackson reportedly wanted to physically play Jar Jar Binks in full costume rather than through CGI.

“In Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi are sent to settle a growing conflict involving the Trade Federation and the peaceful planet of Naboo. Along the way they encounter a clumsy outcast named Jar Jar Binks, a young queen hiding in plain sight, and a gifted slave boy named Anakin Skywalker whose connection to the Force may change the fate of the galaxy forever. As political tensions rise and a mysterious Sith warrior named Darth Maul emerges from the shadows, the stage is set for a new generation of Star Wars adventures.”

Stars: Ewan McGregor, Liam Neeson, Natalie Portman, Jake Lloyd, Ahmed Best & Ray Park.

Welcome Back Bunglers! ⚡

Ryan, David, and Zack welcome a true legend of Third Earth to Radical Retro Rewind as ThunderCats writer, story editor, and showrunner Peter Lawrence joins the show for an unforgettable conversation celebrating the original 1985 series.

Born in Central Africa and later building a career in television, film, and publishing, Peter Lawrence helped shape the mythology and spirit of ThunderCats as script editor and writer for Rankin/Bass. His work also includes SilverHawks, Peter Pan and the Pirates, The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest, and numerous novels and children’s books.

From the early days of ThunderCats to the mythology, characters, behind the scenes stories, and what the series has meant to generations of fans, Peter shares memories and reflections from one of animation’s most beloved adventures. We also bring along questions from fellow Bunglers around the world and go beyond the Book of Omens for a heartfelt celebration of the legacy of ThunderCats.

And yes… some very important questions are finally discussed. Was Vultureman secretly in the closet? Why did the Sword of Plun-Darr suddenly disappear? And whose idea was it to reveal that Jaga was responsible for the destruction of Thundera?!

Plus, Sean “Buddha” McKeone makes a special appearance!

Welcome Back Radical Ones! ⚡️

We’re continuing our Star Wars Summer with something truly special… a return to our original Episode 50… now revamped and remastered for 2026.

From the Radical Retro Time Capsule, this holiday classic comes back to life with enhanced audio, new clips, and a brand-new opening experience. (How very George Lucas of us… going back and giving it the special edition treatment) including Davids famous "Ewoke Village" story!

Originally recorded in the early days of the podcast, this episode captures the energy, humor, and heart that helped build the Radical Ones community.

"Han Solo and Chewbacca race to get back to Kashyyyk for Life Day, but along the way we’re pulled into a strange mix of family moments, Imperial trouble, musical numbers, and pure 70s variety show camp. Featuring classic characters and the first appearance of Boba Fett, this unforgettable special feels less like a traditional story and more like a wild Star Wars fever dream!"

Starring: Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Peter Mayhew, Mickey Morton, Patty Maloney, Paul Gale, Diana Sadley, Bea Arthur, Art Carney, Harvey Korman, Diahann Carroll, Jefferson Starship, David Prowse, James Earl Jones, Malachi Throne, Don Francks
