The Power Trip: A Journey Through the Power Rangers Franchise
To celebrate the 29th anniversary of Power Rangers, Michael Hamilton (Kaiju Weekly, The Kaiju Groupie Podcast) and Nathan Marchand (The Monster Island Film Vault, Henshin Men) embark on a journey through every season of the famous morphenomenal franchise.

With the 30th anniversary of Power Rangers around the corner, Nathan and Michael dive into their longboxes (well, a shortbox for Michael) to discuss Mighty Morphin Power Rangers 25th Anniversary Special #1. This was an extra-large anthology comic with several short stories that span the franchise. It naturally includes two (-and-a-half) MMPR stories, but it also inexplicably has a Mystic Force tale and a Ninja Steel crossover. The meat of the episode, though, is dedicated to the issue’s final story, “The Trial of Astronema,” but not just because it’s about Nathan’s Ranger crush; it’s dark and thought-provoking.

You spoke it into existence, Listeners with Attitude! Our first five-hour episode! We’re joined by our two friends, Daniel DiManna (Godzilla Novelization Project) and Travis Alexander (Kaiju Ramen Magazine) to discuss Gosei Sentai Dairanger. This Sentai is in a weird place because it was only sorta adapted by Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers—as in they used mecha footage and some monster footage. The awesome costumes in this series were unused…until Megaforce (but we don’t talk about Megaforce). Daniel is interesting because he’s seen Super Sentai before Power Rangers (a rarity in the English-speaking world) and Travis loves this because it combines two of his favorite things: martial arts films and tokusatsu. Our “Toku Topic” is ch’i. Be warned: we get a bit punch drunk by the end.

Nathan is in his element while Michael tags along when The Power Trip finally covers its first BOOM! Studios Power Ranger comic…that was a co-production with DC Comics. So…does it count? Regardless, in Justice League/Power Rangers, the most iconic superheroes in the world join forces with the Teenagers with Attitude—and it’s a match made in comic book heaven. Nathan schools Michael on characters like the villainous A.I. Brainiac, but both of them gush over how incredibly cool Alpha-5 is in this story. They want a sequel NOW! The cliffhanger must be resolved! What’s that cliffhanger? Listen to find out! (Or better yet, read the dang comic).

The Power Trip begins its Super Sentai coverage! Michael and Nathan make a U-turn and go back to Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers—sorta—with Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger, which became MMPR season one. How does it compare? These shows are the same and yet quite different, if that makes sense. It was hard for your hosts to choose one over the other. Contrary to popular belief, Super Sentai isn’t “perfect.” Regardless, this show does hit both hosts differently in light of Jason David Frank’s death. They also experiment with some changes to their format. Listen to hear if they worked!

For the first Lightning Round of 2023, Michael and Nate are joined by their friend Danny DiManna of the Godzilla Novelization Project to discuss all the things surrounding the 30th Anniversary of Power Rangers, Power Rangers: Cosmic Fury, new product teases, and all things in between. The guys speculate what Hasbro has in store for "Once and Always", and try to decipher the easter eggs found in the "Rangers Reunited" behind the scenes first look.

Happy New Year, Listeners with Attitude! We’re kicking off Power Trip 2: Taisaku Sentai Podranger (aka season two) with some comic coverage—but not BOOM! Studios! No, it’s Going Green, the last Ranger comic produced before BOOM! acquired the license, and it’s…wacky, to say the least. If you heard our episode on The Monster Island Film Vault about “Green with Evil,” then you know this comic is a prequel to that miniseries. It explains how Rita acquired the Green Power Coin—while fighting vegetable people—and chose Tommy as its bearer—after trying to seduce him! Seriously, we’re not sure if this is supposed to be a canonical parody or the creators misremembering how goofy the show was at points. What do you think?

Michael (Kaiju Weekly, The Kaiju Groupie Podcast) and Nathan (The Monster Island Film Vault, Henshin Men, Power Rangers: The Audio Drama) have spent a year analyzing the nearly 1,000 episodes and three movies in the Power Rangers franchise. Michael is content to finish, but Nathan wants a season 2—and so does the great Ninjor, er, Ninjaman! He tells the “Power Nerds” what they can do to tide themselves over until the anniversary. Listen to find out!
Featuring Daniel DiManna as Ninjaman.

Merry Christmas, Listeners with Attitude! In true Power Rangers fashion, The Power Trip’s first season “ends” with a holiday special! Nathan and Michael harken back to Mighty Morphin’ season two to discuss a VHS episode that originally went out to members of the Power Rangers Fan Club: “Alpha’s Magical Christmas.” Oh boy, this (thankfully) non-canonical special is so saccharine, it’s guaranteed to give you diabetes. And it’s nothing like the show. What’s funny is your intrepid hosts discovered there is a literary/audio adaptation that’s way better—and they wished they’d discussed that instead. Have fun singing along with Alpha and dozens of “kidnapped” children with Stockholm syndrome! -----------------------------------------------"Lord Zedd's Holiday Humbug"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjCClLR01o0"Alpha's Magical Christmas"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Wu6btCUd_Q&t=1242s-----------------------------------------------EMAIL FEEDBACK TO THE SHOW:powertrippod@gmail.com-----------------------------------------------FOLLOW THE SHOW:Follow The Power Trips on Twitter: @ThePowerTripPod.Join the podcast’s official Facebook group: Power Rangers Legacy.-----------------------------------------------READ KAIJU RAMEN:kaijuramenmagazine.com-----------------------------------------------OTHER PODCASTS WITH ATTITUDE:Kaiju Weekly Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kaiju-weekly/id1330448313The Henshin Men Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/henshin-men/id1575547087The Monster Island Film Vault:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-monster-island-film-vault/id1472692780The Kaiju Groupie Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-kaiju-groupie-podcast/id1519596361-----------------------------------------------The podcast logo was designed by Rebecca Hudgens.

And so Michael and Nathan come to their journey’s end…for now. After one year, 995 TV episodes, and three movies, your intrepid hosts have much to say about the Power Rangers franchise. They begin with some personal reflections on this long endeavor followed by having some fun picking their Ranger “dream teams” (and yes, they both felt obligated to include Tommy Oliver). The main event of the episode, though, is when they put every series and film into a Tiermaker tier list. There was gushing and arguing and mind changing. Then there was season two hype….What is your Ranger dream team?Check out our “Official Power Trip PR Ranking Tier List” to make your own!Timestamps:· Intro: 0:00-2:44· Opening discussion: 2:44-31:14· Ranger “Dream Teams”: 31:14-1:40:14· PR Tier Lists: 1:40:14-4:08:36· Announcements/Final Thoughts: 4:08:36-end-----------------------------------------------EMAIL FEEDBACK TO THE SHOW:powertrippod@gmail.com-----------------------------------------------FOLLOW THE SHOW:Follow The Power Trips on Twitter: @ThePowerTripPod.Join the podcast’s official Facebook group: Power Rangers Legacy.-----------------------------------------------READ KAIJU RAMEN:kaijuramenmagazine.com-----------------------------------------------OTHER PODCASTS WITH ATTITUDE:Kaiju Weekly Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kaiju-weekly/id1330448313The Henshin Men Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/henshin-men/id1575547087The Monster Island Film Vault:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-monster-island-film-vault/id1472692780The Kaiju Groupie Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-kaiju-groupie-podcast/id1519596361-----------------------------------------------The podcast logo was designed by Rebecca Hudgens.

Nathan sits down with Andrew Bush, the director of this upcoming series, and discusses the characters and many influences that went into this crowdfunded project—including Kamen Rider Black, Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers, and The X-Files.

Nathan and Michael reach end of the third era of Power Rangers and the beginning of the current one. So, since the Hasbro Era only has two series (currently) to it, they’ve combined it with the previous one and calling it “Neo-Saban and Beyond.” This isn’t the shortest era, but it does have the fewest entries for them to discuss (six series and a movie). Strangely, your intrepid hosts disagreed most on what should be on the bottom of the list more than anything else. What did they rank as the worst of the worst era of Power Rangers?

They did it! Michael and Nathan reached the “new hotness” in Ranger Nation! That being Power Rangers: Dino Fury, which, while a typical PR series in many ways, broke new ground in others. It reintroduces Michael’s favorite PR villain, Lord Zedd (who has no time for glitter) and features the first LGBTQ+ Ranger in a mainline PR series with Izzy Garcia. But much to Michael’s chagrin, the conversation is derailed for a while by everyone’s favorite snarky bonehead, Rito Revolto, who punches out Nathan to talk about his brother-in-law. Then there’s talk about a surprising theme in this series: reconciliation.

On November 28, 2022, a multitude of podcasters and YouTubers—Nathan Marchand, Michael Hamilton, Travis Alexander, Jack “GMan” Hudgens (The Drift Space), J.R. Villers (The Drift Space), Rebecca Hudgens (The Drift Space), Kaiju Kim, Chris Cooke, and Jimmy from Zeo to Hero—came together to celebrate the life and work of Jason David Frank. From acting to martial arts to teaching to motivational speaking, he did it all. But he’ll always be remembered as Tommy Oliver, the most popular Power Ranger. He was the face of the brand for years and a hero to his fans. Because he took his own life, your hosts spent this long livestream raising money for To Write Love On Her Arms, “a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury, and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire, and invest directly into treatment and recovery.” Their goal is to raise $800, and you can still contribute at the link below.To view the video version of the livestream on the MIFV YouTube channel.Donate to TWLOHA here in JDF’s honor.-----------------------------------------------EMAIL FEEDBACK TO THE SHOW:powertrippod@gmail.com-----------------------------------------------FOLLOW THE SHOW:Follow The Power Trips on Twitter: @ThePowerTripPod.Join the podcast’s official Facebook group: Power Rangers Legacy.-----------------------------------------------READ KAIJU RAMEN:kaijuramenmagazine.com-----------------------------------------------OTHER PODCASTS WITH ATTITUDE:Kaiju Weekly Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kaiju-weekly/id1330448313The Henshin Men Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/henshin-men/id1575547087The Monster Island Film Vault:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-monster-island-film-vault/id1472692780The Kaiju Groupie Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-kaiju-groupie-podcast/id1519596361-----------------------------------------------The podcast logo was designed by Rebecca Hudgens.

The Hasbro Era begins! Michael and Nathan definitely don’t miss the previous season or They-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named. While your intrepid hosts knew some of the spoilers going into Power Rangers: Beast Morphers, it didn’t ruin their enjoyment. Heck, this series did in five episodes what all 40+ episodes of Megaforce couldn’t do! While Nate does threaten to “whip Rito out early,” he and Michael spend most of their longest episode ever (4.5 hours!!!) praising a series that surprised them with its story, characters, and fan service (Space Sheriff Gavin is canon?!). The show even prompted one of the best thematic discussions they’ve had on the podcast. It helps that it’s a secret sequel to one of their favorite PR series. Which one?

The Neo-Saban Era comes to an end—and what a whimper it is! Nathan and Michael tackle Power Rangers Ninja Steel, whose greatest sin could’ve been being painfully mediocre—but then those two Nickelodeon-mandated characters had to ruin everything! So, for the first time ever, “Rantmaster” and “Blue Streak Ranger” join forces! Otherwise, your hosts spend this four-hour cluster of a recording (those two characters even broke their internet reception) discussing the few highlights in this show, including Kelson Henderson as Mick, Redbot, and the Pink Ranger’s tight jeans. Oh, and after avoiding it all year, there’s a thematic discussion on teamwork. But it’s more profound than you’d think.-----------------------------------------------EMAIL FEEDBACK TO THE SHOW:powertrippod@gmail.com-----------------------------------------------FOLLOW THE SHOW:Follow The Power Trips on Twitter: @ThePowerTripPod.Join the podcast’s official Facebook group: Power Rangers Legacy.-----------------------------------------------READ KAIJU RAMEN:kaijuramenmagazine.com-----------------------------------------------OTHER PODCASTS WITH ATTITUDE:Kaiju Weekly Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kaiju-weekly/id1330448313The Henshin Men Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/henshin-men/id1575547087The Monster Island Film Vault:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-monster-island-film-vault/id1472692780The Kaiju Groupie Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-kaiju-groupie-podcast/id1519596361-----------------------------------------------The podcast logo was designed by Rebecca Hudgens.
