This week: The crew kicks off with some genuinely great news: Gary Chalk (the voice of Optimus Primal!) has beaten stage four Hodgkin’s lymphoma and is in full remission.

In-hand photos of the Stranger Things crossover Frequency impress even the hosts who’ve never watched the show. All that and more on this week’s Radio Free Cybertron!
