    Autobots roll out! Welcome to an all new episode of pcmc. Your one-stop-shop for media musings, nostalgia, and pop culture ephemera! On today's show, Mike is joined once again by Peter Marsh. Peter is a long time friend of the show and something of a podcaster himself (The Lasser Cast / Comic Books Transformed). This episode's topic is the fan favorite animated film The Transformers: The Movie from 1986. The movie that made a million children cry! It's an action-packed death-fest where all our favorite robot cars/people die violent deaths! It also happens to be the final film of cinema legend Orson Welles! Peter is a huge Transformers fan and Mike is a casual fan, thus Peter helped Mike see the light. Come back next week for a continued conversation about Transformers.
