Marc and Greg are excited to interview one of the Directors of Voltron Legendary Defender, Eugene Lee. Eugene gives a great perspective of the process of building episodes of Voltron Legendary Defender. After that, we're catching up on episode reviews with Season 3, Episode 6: Tailing a Comet.

We are honored to present a Special Podcast focusing on the Father & Son relationship in Voltron Legendary Defender between Zarkon & Lotor, starring voice actors Neil Kaplan & AJ LoCascio. You'll love the banter between Neil and AJ as they play off each other in a heavily comedic and whimsical way. We also give away 2 signed lithographs to a lucky listener that submitted questions for Neil and AJ. Also in this podcast, we interview Oscar Edmond, who attended the opening of the Toy De Jour Official Voltron Art Show in Chicago on October 20th. Neil Kaplan (Zarkon) and AJ LoCascio (Lotor) are two great voice actors who are amazing by themselves, but put them together on a podcast and you're going to experience the ultimate entertainment, as the hilarity ensues. We take a special look at the Father-Son relationship in Season 4 of Voltron Legendary Defender, and we see what's going on inside the heads of Neil and AJ. Look out! For those of you that sent in questions for this podcast, we thank you! On

There is a lot to cover at New York Comic Con, especially when it comes to Voltron Legendary Defender, the greatest show on Netflix, and any device anywhere! And it all started with the Voltron Legendary Defender Cast and Crew Autograph Signings at Table 21 of the Autograph Hall on Friday, Oct 6, 2017.

Our first half is a wonderful interview with the voice of Allura on Voltron Legendary Defender, Kimberly Brooks, where Kimberly also answers fan questions and announces the winner of the Allurapalooza Prize Pack! The second half is a deep-dive character study of Allura with Hypable writer and podcaster Donya Abramo. So much Allura, so little time! Allurapalooza!

We are excited to announce that Kimberly Brooks will be attending New York Comic Con on October 6th and 7th. It was originally announced that Josh Keaton, AJ LoCascio, Joaquim Dos Santos and Lauren Montgomery would be the panelists for the Voltron Legendary Defender Season 4 Panel at NYCC, but we learned that Kimberly has been added as a panelist.

We'd love to hear your feedback. Here are some screenshots from those episodes: A

Marc is joined by special guest co-host Lexi Hoffman to interview Jamie Gray Hyder, the voice of Zethrid in Voltron Legendary Defender. After the interview, Lexi and Marc review 3 episodes from Season 2, including Escape from Beta Traz, Stayin' Alive, and Best Laid Plans. Jamie Gray Hyder is best known by Voltron fans as Zethrid, one of Prince Lotor's Generals from Season 3 of Voltron Legendary Defender, but where this booming, scary voice comes from is a mystery to everyone who's ever worked in the booth with Jamie before. She has also played Lt. Salter in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, and she's been seen on Graceland and True Blood. It was a pleasure to talk about Voltron Legendary Defender, Lotor and his Generals, Season 3, and for Jamie to answer all the questions submitted by the fans. Lexi Hoffman is a World History Teacher and long-time Voltron fan from Colorado. She won the opportunity to co-host for 1 episode of the podcast and to help interview Jamie, after sending in an email with questions a

We also complete our coverage of SDCC with the help of Shannon Muir, which includes a Fanfest Voltron panel, a Neil Kaplan panel, and Random Gibberish playing "Hear Me Roar", LIVE at Comic-Concert! AJ LoCascio burst into Season 3 of Voltron Legendary Defender on Netflix this past Friday, August 4th, and he's not looking back, because his character, Prince Lotor, has shaken the Voltron Fandom. AJ has played other characters like Marty McFly, LEGO Movie's Emmet, and Thunk in DreamWorks' Dawn of the Croods, but Prince Lotor is his most iconic character yet!

We couldn't wait to talk about everything Voltron that happened at San Diego Comic-Con, and since Greg was not able to attend, he is experiencing the whole story, interviews, panel and all, just like the listeners of this podcast. But while Marc (and his wife Kim), Shambhavi, Shamus, and Dani were all in San Diego, Greg was creating his own magic, putting together a great video review of the Voltron Legendary Defender Metal Defender Series Diecast Lions Set. You can watch Greg's very thorough review on our YouTube Channel! Here are some pics from our trip to San Diego Comic-Con: We also announced the 2 winners of a Voltron SDCC Priz

Josh Hamilton has written more than 8 of the 24 episodes of Voltron Legendary Defender from Seasons 1 and 2. Now, he has additional responsibilities as Story Editor and we talk to him about that, as well as the process that the writers go through to get the episodes from story to screen. You'll love this insight into the making of Voltron Legendary Defender! Another fantastic interview in this podcast includes the worldwide debut of a clip from "Hear Me Roar", the new Voltron-inspired single from Random Gibberish, a Musical Comedy and Geek Rock Band from San Diego. We talk to keyboardist and lead singer, Matt Sernaker (left, below). This song will performed for the first time eve

He's back! Neil Kaplan joins us to review his favorite episode from Voltron Legendary Defender Season 2: Space Mall. You've never heard an episode review until you've heard an episode review with Neil Kaplan. So much fun! We also give a full preview for everything Voltron at San Diego Comic-Con, and you'll hear the latest updates with Playmates Toys, Lion Forge Comics and Han Cholo. Neil Kaplan, the amazing voice of Emperor Zarkon on Voltron Legendary Defender, also played the role of "Earth Store Vendor" in Space Mall. As we found out as we talked to Neil, he recently revealed to the world that he is the voice of Ghaul in the video game, Destiny 2. He also goes into detail about several other recent gigs he has had the pleasure of lending his talents to, which are very interesting. Of course, Neil gives us loads of laughter as we step through Space Mall, a fan favorite, and some his own fanboy moments from the episode. Thank you, Neil Kaplan, for joining us and making this such a special podcast

Irene Fernández joins Marc and Greg to review Voltron Legendary Defender Season 2, Episode 5: Eye of the Storm. And Marc and Greg find out that Irene has a lot of real-life experiences that match with what the characters are going through in this episode. After the episode review, Marc and Greg preview episode 100 of the podcast, and let fans know how they can be on it, and win Voltron Swag! People who have listened to the podcast will remember we interviewed Irene at the Voltron Collective Party at NYCC back in October of 2016. This time, you get to hear Irene clearly, without all the background music playing, and you'll learn she's just full of interesting tidbits that really help in the review of "Eye of the Storm", especially that she's actually lived through hurricanes in her native Puerto Rico. We had a lot of fun going through Coran having the 'slipperies', Pidge learning Altean, Keith and Lance's visit to the pool, and Hunk making Scaultrite cookies. Here are some screenshots from "Eye

Marc and Greg review the 4th episode in the 2nd season of Voltron Legendary Defender on Netflix: Greening the Cube. We are introduced to the Olkari, who help Pidge gain a greater bond with Green Lion, and in a sub-plot, Keith seems to have something on his mind that he hasn't told anyone on the team. We enjoyed reviewing this episode because it really showcases Pidge, and her unique abilities, and we learn a new power for Green Lion. Keith seems to have his arms folded throughout the entire episode, but we all know what's on his mind. It was nice to see that we are all made of the same cosmic dust, and it harkens to the mission of Voltron, the coming together to defend the universe from evil. Now that the Olkari and Voltron are allies, it will enable Voltron to be better prepared to take on Emperor Zarkon, when the time comes. Here are some screenshots from the episode: And here is a doodle of Ryner shared by Co-Executive Producer Lauren Montgomery on her Twitter account: Doodled a Ryner then used #
