The Totally Rad Show

"Three rad dudes, with nothing better to do, * get abducted by the crew of the starship Alpha-2. * They're from the planet Q which, due to a space time loop, * is stuck in '82 and must be rescued. * They need our heroes to discuss the latest news * and give their reviews of games and movies too. * Sure hope you're not confused. We swear this is all true. * Not just the premise to The Totally Rad Show."

- The Totally Rad Show Theme Original Version

The Totally Rad Show is a Web Original program on the Revision3 network. It features three guys, Alex Albrecht, Jeff Cannata, and Dan Trachtenberg, as they review various geek-related media. This includes Film, Video Games, Television, and occasionally Comic Books.


 * Expository Theme Tune: Parodied them with its always absurd (and, for a time, constantly changing) theme song. It did, however, manage to tell you the basic premise of "Three Guys Cover Pop Culture Stuff" in between the puns, wackiness, and Shout Outs.
 * Gratuitous Spanish: Danny T: ¡Mañana!
 * Live Episode: The excursions to San Diego Comic Con and SXSW
 * Five of Us: Jeff, Alex, Dan, Mike and formerly Steve all wear their geek hearts on the sleeve. One of the show's mantras is: "Nerd is the new cool".
 * Podcast
 * Proud to Be a Geek
 * Retool: On September 20th, 2010 the show went from a long form weekly show with new episodes on Tuesdays to a daily show with shorter episodes covering topics from Monday through Friday.
 * Shout-Out: So so many
 * Something Completely Different: The End of the Year (Raddies) shows count for this but an even better example would be Episode 153 where the TRS guys do the whole show as a public access program from 1986.
 * And now we have Episode 180, which is set entirely in 1959.
 * Spiritual Successor: To Dan's earlier podcast on Revision3 Geekdrome.
