Super Nuclear Presents

After nearly a year since our last Titan Talk, deep in the ennui and tension of adult life, Mary, David and Ben heard a calling. Nay, a stirring in our very souls. And so we came together in the dying days of the Skype messenger service, on a sacred and singular mission – To cut the Pokedex (almost) neatly in half. That’s right, as veritable boomers raised on the original 151, we have come to the conclusion there are too many Pokemon nowadays, please eliminate three. And so we’re going to go from start to finish, examining each evolutionary family and deciding which would stay if, theoretically, half of them had to go to a farm upstate. This miniseries will go generation by generation for the first round of cuts, then narrow down once we get an idea of the state of things.

Masks, the debut of Red X, is considered one of the best episodes of Season 1 - so why did we think it was so mediocre? The plot is bare-bones, questions go unanswered, there are so many opportunities for emotional fulfillment and character development that are just glossed over, and the twist, oh the TWIST! Who ever saw THAT coming??? What is this, a show for ten-year-olds? (It does have some VERY cool robots, however.) Be warned that this episode is rife with Cat Behavior from a few usually-silent guests. Ness was indulging in a great many misbevaiors typical of his kind - the likes of which David is adjusting to - and we heard some input from Mike, and even the usually quiet Ike!  === Send us your feedback at supernucleargroup@gmail.com !

Apologies for the impromptu break, everyone – we’re back and we’re ready to party! Or, uh, in this case, cringe, because despite being written by the original author of The New Teen Titans comics, this episode… isn’t all that great. Of Teen Titans, I mean. WE, your humble podcasters, are in top form. And together we look on in horror as the Titans make one idiotic decision after another. Beast Boy develops an inferiority complex that actively hinders the mission, Starfire and Raven fawn over a boy and don’t do much else, and our villain is in MULTIPLE PLACES AT ONCE? HOW CAN THAT BE??? One way or another, we hope we can make this one more bearable for you. (Also, correction – the largest fungus in North America does not unfortunately cover the Pacific Northwest. Only about four miles of it. Sorry to disappoint.) === Send us your feedback at supernucleargroup@gmail.com ! Or you can support us on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/supernucleargroup   OR!

Alright, time to dive headfirst into that tried and true staple of western animation, the body swap episode!  None of us had remembered this one very fondly, and it turns out Mary had never seen at all. But it turns out it rules - especially because it's an EXCELLENT character study. Behold as Starfire-as-Raven destroys everything in her path, Raven-as-Starfire struggles to even feel a single emotion on purpose, and the boys... well, they're pretty wooden in this episode. Ba dum pish! This episode carries a content warning at about the 38:30-42:00 mark for discussion of rape, clarifying the misinfo about the character we spoke of in the last episode. === Click here for proof positive that Magilla Ice, the hip for the 90s version of Magilla Gorilla, actually exists: https://hanna-barbera.fandom.com/wiki/Magilla_Ice === Follow us on Twitter at @super_nuclear, or send us your feedback at supernucleargroup@gmail.com !
