Merry Christmas! Yes folks, it's that time of year again, where the Nostalgia TARDIS is done up with tinsel, turkey and all the trimmings! Join Glenn, Jii and Sam as they traverse the tricky road between the good presents you've all had through the years, and the presents which...well, let's just say people needn't have bothered gifting in the first place. There's also a bumper Christmas box full of news, from not only Masters, but Transformers, a smidgin of Star Wars, and even news from StarCom this week! Yes, ambassador, you truly are spoiling us. From all of us at BTTE, a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of our listeners. We'll be back after Christmas to entertain and annoy you!

It's our Christmas Show Eve this week, as Sam, Glenn and Jenny from World of Crap take a look at not only the best and worst Christmas gifts that you've ever received, but also the downright confusing ones as well. There's also a glut of updates on the podcast in general, including exciting news about Cybertrax (yes, it's coming back), and all the news that you would want from a podcast that's not reported any news for a little while. Next week: IT'S CHRIIIIIIISTMAAAAAAAAAS!

How's about this for a throwback, folks? All the way from 2010, here's Jeremy and myself (back in the days when I was just a humble co-host!) interviewing the man, the myth, the complete and utter legend that is Flint Dille, writer of GI Joe, Transformers: The Movie, architect for season 3 of Transformers G1, writer of many IDW Transformers comics and game designer of countless games (also, I'm pretty sure one of the voices at the start of Dragon Strike!)

Cosplaying legend and podcaster Harriet Greene joins Sam, Phil and Glenn this week as we have a bit of a catchup episode - it's been a while since the guys have been together as a unit, so we take a look at the Avengers and Star Wars trailers, discuss the latest developments in the Marvel and DC movieverses, and also have a good old natter about cosplaying, dressing up, and generally having a good old time at conventions!

Jii, Sam and Glenn are joined by Annie and Eddie Palitoy this week, as they discuss not only some of the cartoons that perhaps we're not as nostalgic about as we should be, but they also take a trip down an edible memory lane as they take a look at food from the 80s that we should all be remembering fondly! And yes, that includes He-Man jellies.

This week sees the return of the Transformers to WTMS, and in particular, to a time when Hot Rod and Cyclonus led the Autobots and Decepticons, on Nebulos, at least. Also, many centuries have passed. So Spike = dead. On the plus side, so is Daniel. And Scorponok isn't a sentient being. The Ladybird continuity is weiiiiiiiird.

Back to the Eighties welcomes a very special guest this week, as AJ Locascio, voice of none other than Marty McFly in the Telltale Back to the Future games drops by! Yes folks, one of the few people to play one of our favourite characters is in the house! AJ talks about his role as Marty in the games, how he came to be interested in films to begin with, and even his love of nostalgia (and BTTF, Indiana Jones, Ninja Turtles...the list goes on...) We'd all like to thank AJ for his time and hope that he'd like to come on the show again in the future! We also have your homework about things you'd like to see INNNNN SPAAAAAAAAAAACE, and also have a good old natter about wrestling. So join us please, as we go Back...to the Eighties.

It's all the way back to Earth year 1984 this week, and another visit to Eternia, to check in on everyone's favourite living skeleton and his struggle against He-Man. It's not going so well, to be honest. So much so, that Skeletor's had to resort to using Mer Man to attack Prince Adam and the Royal Family on their summer holidays. Maybe Skeletor should have used Nicholas Witchell instead. I bet King Randor HATES Nicholas Witchell.

He joins Sam and Glenn as they explore the wonderful world of Ulysses 31, and find out whether the eponymous hero really does get to go home, and also whether his crew survive being made as lifeless as stone! There's also news, lots of news, ALL THE NEWS, from Star Wars and Transformers, and also a 200th episode message from a late'un. Oh yeah, and also homework: which myth, legend or story could do with the space opera treatment that Ulysses got?

We made it! Yes folks, Back to the Eighties is officially 200 episodes old, and Phil, Sam, and Glenn feel like celebrating. So here they are to read out some of the messages we've received from to mark the occasion, as well as mention some of their favourite moments, and why they enjoy making this wonderful show so much.

Hey you! Yes, you! How about a Masters of the Universe story that doesn't have He-Man in it and focuses solely on Skeletor, Beast-Man and Evil-Lyn going back through time to recruit an army...with hilarious consequences! You want it, you got it. Warlord of Eternia is based on a story from the one-shot Ladybird Masters of the Universe annual, and features only the Evil Warriors on an ill-advised jaunt into the past! If you recognise the storyteller, then you might be surprised to learn that it's actually Ed Bishop, probably best known for his portrayal of Captain Blue, Captain Scarlet's BFF!

They'll also mosey on down through all the news that's worth reportin', not that there's much of that these days.

This week we visit the Transformerverse during it's mid-Eighties difficult-second-album phase, as Optimus Prime and Megatron have gone, and in their place stand the New Leaders; Ultra Magnus and Galvatron. This was odd, because these Movie-era Ladybird adventures chose to eschew the movie more or less, and took their cues from the Marvel UK comic that Simon Furman was having so much fun writing at the time. In this story, the Autobots discover that the Decepticons are constructing a hidden base, very near their own - will they be able to stop them in time, before the Decepticons strike?

Smoke me a kipper. 1 WEEK UNTIL LFCC.

It was Botcon last weekend, so we're having a little bit of a special Newsround this week, as Becca, Sam and Glenn talk about all of the various goings on and amazing announcements at this year's main Transformers Expo. Becca's also spotlighting the various Sherlock Holmes series made by Granada in the 80's and early 90's, starring the supremely talented and much missed Jeremy Brett. We also talk about the live television moments that stick in our huge nostalgic brains, as well as a couple of movies we're looking forward to, and of course, the latest announcements from LFCC, which is only TWO WEEKS AWAY.

Join the gang this week, as they experience the eldritch horror that is Small Wonder...my god...my god. They also report on all of the news that's worth reporting on this week, such as a great new SDCC set for Transformers, some MAJOR news for MOTU, all the Star Wars news (luckily this week we're not telling Harrison Ford to break a leg) and even some Thunderbirds news! It's all going on this week, guv'nor.

As promised last week, we have a very special guest on this week's show. It's Jenny from World of Crap, her wonderful nostalgic website that covers all the great 80's experiences from He-Man to Bullseye! She joins Sam and Glenn as they discuss the wonderful and sometimes bizarre world of 80's daytime telly, which had not yet felt the caress of Jeremy Kyle, nor the taint of Homes Under the Hammer. Good times. A very big thanks to Jenny for coming on the show this week, and believe me, she will be back! Sadly, the news is not all good this week, as we've lost a legend. RIP Rik Mayall. Just in case the grown ups ask, that's why the kids are crying.

It's a full compliment this week, as the crew get down and dirty with one of the true iconic TV programmes of the Eighties, Knight Rider! Let's face it, it doesn't GET more Eighties than that. There's also NEWS! Lots of news. SO MUCH NEWS. From Transformers (where the house is divided on the subject of the SDCC set) to Masters (where Jii clues us all in on a great discovery he's made) to Star Wars (where there's been lots of great developments to Episode VII, including JJ trolling the interwebz) to Ghostbusters (30 years? Really?) and even a bit of TMNT news thrown in for good measure (we still can't wait for this movie). It's a full show, to be sure. So sit back, relax, and enjoy this week's BACK TO THE EIGHTIES.

This episode sees Jii, Glenn, Sam and Phil having a good old natter about what they were up to (and what they were buying) whilst BTTE was off the air. The subjects, as always, are eclectic, ranging from Kamen Rider and Power Rangers, to Godzilla and even My Little Pony. Yeah. It gets THAT weird. There's also all the news that we can possibly cram into a 3 hour podcast, as well as an announcement about this year's Roll Out Roll Call. So what are you waiting for?

Folks, it's time to say hello to an old friend. It's been a while, but Jeremy is back! In what we hope to be a regular monthly feature, he and Glenn are going to be going through the histories of some of our very favourite franchises. and charting their rises, falls, seeing them rise again from the ashes, and assessing where they stand today, and asking the question, "Where do they go from here?"

Phil's back, everybody! Yes, he's gone and got himself all married and stuff he has, and is now back to tell the tale! Meanwhile, Phil, Sam and Glenn check out and spotlight the 1978 TV series of the Amazing Spider-Man, and have a bit of a natter as to why that series didn't work but series like The Incredible Hulk and Wonder Woman did.

Anderson 'month' concludes this week with Sam telling us all about the series that Gerry was perhaps best known for, that of 1965's Thunderbirds! Let's see what we can find out about International Rescue (other than the fact that it was the inspiration for the kickass song by Fuzzbox, of course) There's also all the news that you need to know from all of our favourite franchises, including a look at the full Transformers 4 roster, some interesting MOTU developments, Megan Fox's assurances about April O'Neil, and a discussion about the future of the GI Joe brand - if it even HAS a future.

After a couple of months away, Cybertrax is BACK! This week, we take a look at what happened to Jetfire, sorry SKYfire, after he was left to rot by the Autobots, sorry, given a heroes' send off and buried with full honours. TL; DR - he was turned into a minicab. Also, Megatron has "stress issues".

Today's the first day of Gerry Anderson month, and to kick us off, Becca's spotlighting one of the lesser lauded entries in Anderson oeuvre, the 1970 live action sci-fi series UFO! Also, joining Jii, Becca and Glenn this week is a special guest. A special guest from another podcast...be excited. And afraid. Very afraid. Stick with us though, because not only do we have all the news that's fit to discuss, we also take on one of Jii's biggest pet peeeves...

It's back to Illnois in 1980 this week, as Glenn, Phil and Becca spotlight a true Eighties classic - The Blues Brothers! They also trawl the depths of the news pipe, and prepare to be disappointed as the UK Toy Fair news turns out to be a little lighter than expected, just wait until you find out why! We have a bonus section too this week dear listener, as we finally get round to answering someof your questions - keep sending them in, BTTE fans! Stay tuned for next week's episode, as Gerry Anderson month will start with an organ harvesting bang, as Becca wil be spotlighting the 1970 classic series UFO!

There's a full compliment to the BTTE crew this week - just in time for Glenn to make an announcement for future spotlights for the podcast! This week though, it's back to 1982 for a look at a Japanese puppet show that many of you may have forgotten...not for long! We also have all the news that's fit to talk about this week, including MOTU news, Transformers Age of Extinction toy news and even convention news which will have Gerry Anderson fans all of a fluster!

Happy New Year! Welcome to 2014! We'd like to start off slowly this year (as everyone does when they go back to work, right?), so Glenn, Phil, Becca and Sam will all regail us with tales of Christmas and what they got for their prezzies! They also discuss two other very important aspects of Christmas, name Doctor Who and Sherlock and how this year's offerings fared, and how the future might look for these two programmes. Add in a smidgin of news (because there's not that much) and you have an episode that's full to the brim of rich new year goodness.

Hosted by Glenn and his very special guests, this podcast is a virtual trip back in time to the halcyon days of our childhood - the 1980s (and early 1990s). Every week we explore at least one facet of 80's pop culture, discuss questions from our listeners, and report the news from at least 4 of the main franchises of the 80's that are still around today!
