The Transformers Nitpickers Podcast Show
John was born in 1979 and, growing up in the 80s, was the prime age for all the best cartoons and toys: G.I.Joe, The Real Ghostbusters, Voltron, Braveheart, and obviously The Transformers. His parents enrolled him in every cliched 1980s after-school program you can imagine: Karate, T-ball, school band, and boy scouts. It was the last of those where he met Paul in 1992. The two bonded over heavy metal, Dungeons & Dragons, and other nerdy interests and went their separate ways after high-school but stayed in touch as best they could with 5000 km between them. In 2018 John recalled an old Geocities page Paul had made for a lark and pitched his best friend the idea of reviewing the first season of G1 in a podcast and seeing where it goes. Over 600 episodes later, it's still going. John currently resides in Vancouver, BC where he's a writer, independent producer, and general weirdo. In his free time he is a forever DM, plays guitar, and bakes the best buttermilk biscuits you'll ever taste.
