Join us in this latest episode of the Ratchet RetroCast and first of 2014 where we bring you back into the classic era of Filmation! With our special guest Robert Lamb, we dive into the history of the animation studio covering all its great shows in the 70’s and 80’s with some great behind the scenes tales. Q discovers he is He-Man reborn, and we even have a guest host/substitute Sorceress in the form of Ashley. In addition, we unbox a new feature to the show, the Ratchet RetroSpective, as Q educates folks on Marshall BraveStarr, the legend of New Texas! We also spend some time with Cindy MacLeod of AnachroCon for our Clockwork Quarter Hour. So by the power of Grayskull, you have the podcast!
