Ep. 050 – TMNT Comic-Con Mayhem with Jon Zelenak & IDW Comics
BOOYAKASHOW! HAS HIT 50 EPISODES!!!
It took me a while to get to this point, but here it is and I’m glad we made it! Fifty episodes may not be a lot to some podcasters, but it’s a big deal to me. Life has been a little draining for me lately, but SDCC and the 50th episode were the exact pick-me-up I needed. THANK YOU to everyone who’s been listening for a while and who’s stuck around to hit this big time milestone episode with me.
As the title would suggest, I couldn’t just do any ol’ thing for the 50th episode. I had to do something bigger than usual, so I waited for SDCC 2023 to roll into town so I could put out something a bit oversized for y’all. And this episode is no joke! It’s almost two hours long and chock full of Comic-Con goodness. You’ll hear me chat with Jon Zelenak (aka @thesewerden) about SDCC and Mutant Mayhem, and then you’ll get to listen to IDW’s “Next Evolution of Turtlemania” panel from this year’s big show. I do some quick toy talk after the panel discussing some reveals and exclusives from Comic-Con as well. Hope y’all enjoy!
The next time you hear from me we’ll all have a new Ninja Turtles movie on our hands, so dig in and I’ll talk to y’all after I get some Mutant Mayhem viewings in! COWABUNGA! – Zach
** Gotta send a BIG shout out and a lot of love to my homie Juston McKee (@uppermindink) for the new BooyakaShow! logo artwork. It’s a killer logo, and I’m glad BooyakaShow! has something fresh to celebrate 50 episodes. Thanks again, Juston!** -
Ep. 049 – Mutant Mayhem Mania with Drew & Jon
It’s another Mutant Mayhem-fueled episode, but this time Zach brought more back up. Long time friends of the show, Jon Zelenak and Drew DeArmond, join the show to talk ALL things Mutant Mayhem. The guys dive deep into the latest MM happenings as they chat about the trailer, the cast, and the upcoming figures. Not a single thought is spared. It’s a LONG episode! So long in fact that Zach is joined by his toddler son before things are all said and done.
If you need some long form Turtles talk in your life then this is the episode for you. As always, thanks for tuning in and COWABUNGA! -
Ep. 048 – Mutant Mayhem Teaser Reaction with John Bernardo
After a long hiatus, BooyakaShow! is back! It may or may not have taken a new movie trailer to bring the show back, but that’s besides the point. That’s right, Turtles Fans, Zach’s jumping on the mic today to discuss the Mutant Mayhem teaser trailer that dropped with a guest that’s new to the show. Zach is joined by Turtle fan and fellow podcaster, John Bernardo. John joins the show from Canada, and although their access to healthcare has multiple differences, their Turtles fandom does not!
Listen to Zach and John as they discuss the casting choices, art style, possible plot developments and more. It’s a short and sweet episode, but hopefully the Mutant Mayhem news will keep coming and there’ll be more to speak on soon. As always, thanks for listening and COWABUNGA! -
Ep. 047 – BooyakaTales! Radio – TMNT 130
Well… We WERE caught up.
That’s right, Ninja Turtles Fans, just when Rob and I thought we’d got back on track the track split in crazy directions and we couldn’t keep up. Rob started a new school year, I recorded some SDCC episodes, then I caught Covid, and now here’s a “new” episode of BooyakaShow! that was recorded approximately three weeks ago.
Regardless of all that, it’s a great episode where Rob and I tackled the final issue in the Punk Frogs Saga. We recap and review IDW’s TMNT issue 130 in great detail, so grab your copy and follow along! We’ve also already recorded our breakdown for Armageddon Game Opening Moves #1, so be on the lookout for that on Rob’s Turtles Forever feed soon!
Take care and COWABUNGA! -
Ep. 046 – New TMNT Toys at SDCC 2022
What’s up, TMNT Gang?! Zach and BooyakaShow! are right back at it with ANOTHER episode covering Turtles news and announcements from San Diego Comic-Con! This time around, Zach digs into all the toy news that cropped up from SDCC.
If Zach was giving away prizes, NECA would have received Best In Show. They swung for the fences this year and hit A LOT of home runs. There’s cool stuff from other companies like Super7, Playmates, Loyal Subjects, Heat Boys, and more as well. So listen in and hear what toys have Zach excited for the future of his collection!
Thanks for listening and COWABUNGA! -
Ep. 045 – IDW RoninVerse Panel & Eastman HoF Induction
Yo, Ninja Turtles Fans! Hope you’re ready for a banger ‘cos this episode of BooyakaShow! is filled to the brim with San Diego Comic-Con TMNT goodness. It’s the first solo episode Zach’s knocked out in a while, and it’s a fun one. In this episode you’ll hear Kevin Eastman’s Eisner Awards Hall of Fame induction speech, and you’ll hear IDW’s RoninVerse/Armageddon Game panel. Zach discusses each in detail afterwards, so hope you enjoy some Turtle-themed Comic-Con action!
Thanks for listening, and COWABUNGA!
Customer Reviews
Great podcast
I never found a podcast that points on the 2012 TMNT series
My Favorite Turtles Cast!
I have been listening to Zach's show since its first run several years ago, and two things have been a major constant that keeps me coming back. For one, the guy loves the Turtles and his passion and knowledge about the franchise shines through every episode (not to mention the show's professional sound quality!). And two, Zach is a positive and down to earth guy! It's so easy to find shows that are a bit cynical, entitled, or even a bit jaded in how the hosts view their fandoms and/or the world in general. Zach, on the other hand, always remains upbeat, honest, and open-minded about the Turtles franchise and its diverse TMNT community. As a fan, I truly appreciate that! This show has been in my podcast rotation for years, and I can't reccomend it enough! Cowabunga!
This podcast kicks shell!
I love listening to this podcast! The host is a super cool guy with a lot of positive energy. He is really into all things turtles, including the TV shows as well as the comics and toy collecting. Listening to his podcast has encouraged me to branch out from only being a fan of the TV shows and movies, to also become a fan of the IDW Comics line and starting a small action figure collection of my own. These podcasts are well planned and thought out and it shows! Well done and keep them coming!
