This week, we continue with another long unreleased episode Fat Robot Radio. Is it fun? OH MY GOD YES! So listen up, you foppish dandies, it’s Fat Robot Radio time. Stop what you’re doing, get comfy, and enjoy.
The new season kicks off with the first of two lost episodes, filled with both humor, plugs for things that never came out, and references to the fourth of July! Timely? YOU BET! There is some deeply funny stuff in there though, so settle in, kick your shoes off (unless you are in public, in which case feel free to keep them on) and get ready for America’s Least Deadly Podcast, FAT ROBOT RADIO!

That’s right America, Fat Robot Radio, while on hiatus, has brought you a super fun Best Of Show! Listen to our past glories! Relive them with us! Come on! WHY WON’T YOU RELIVE THE MEMEORIES WITH US?!?!??!?! WHAT, ARE YOU SOME KIND OF COMMUNIST?
I thought not.
So sit back and enjoy this excellent best of show. We sure did, but of course we are hopeless narcissists.
This week, from a super compacted gravity bundle containing all matter in the universe, explodes in a wondrous flash the majestic birth of all creation. Expanding at the speed of light, energy will begin to coalesce and form vast starscapes, and planets, and eventually, life itself. It should be a good time.

This week, nothing really happens. Just a regular episode of the podcast. No big deal. If you like this podcast, then you’ll like this episode, if you don’t then something is wrong with your brain. Actually, that was mean. I’m sure your brain is fine. Perhaps you like lighter fare, like the Little Mermaid. And that’s fine. The adventures of Arial, and her little Crab friend, and their battle against the evil Ursula, is an animated classic, though I do find her conversion from mermaid to actual legged person a little disturbing. I mean, how does she know how to walk? And why does that prince want to have sex with a fish so badly? Eerie.

This this episode, the entire world comes to an end. All the events and human achievements the world has ever known, along with all living life on the planet, is blinked out of existence in an instant, with absolutely no warning. The entire planet explodes in a giant fireball, throwing the orbit of all celestial masses in our part of the solar system into disarray. Only tiny bits of rock remain to fill our former seat in the vast emptiness of space.
The Fat Robot gang doesn’t really talk about it though. It’s pretty much business as usual around there. But really, when the world ends, do you want to run around screaming in the street like some kind of jackass, or go our with a little style. If screaming isn’t really your thing, then give a listen to this episode of FAT ROBOT RADIO.
