TFTalk.net was founded in 2013 by Duron Land, the Host of the Transformers for Your Listening Pleasure podcast (TFYLP) started by GeekExistence.com in 2010. Upon the separation of TFYLP and GeekExistence, TFTalk was born in an effort to continue the entertainment of the fans, and spread information and excitement about the hobby of collecting Transformers and other robot mecha.
TFTalk.net hosts multiple podcast shows, including:
- TFYLP: Transformers discussion, from the brand, to the fandom, and everything in between. Each show we love to discuss a topic that affects us as Transformer collectors! Often this show is done live, at 11AM Central on YouTube. We also have a public Facebook group that you can join in with us to chat!
- Microcasters: Weekly Transformers reviews, Tuesday at 9PM Central. Aired live from the TFTalk.NET Facebook page!
- Ouch My Wallet: The cast gets together and talks about what new toys have lately raided their cash funds! Mostly Transformers, but some other items slip in here and there. Currently not on a set schedule.
All of our shows are available (if not currently, going forward new episodes will be soon!) both on our YouTube channel and as audio podcasts from your choice (iTunes, Google Play, etc).
