"Transformers: One" (starring Chris Hemsworth, Bryan Tyree Henry, and Scarlett Johansson) is hitting theaters this weekend, and fans of the franchise, old and new, are really in for a treat. Director Josh Cooley sat down with Sean to discuss his creative process, finding the voice of Optimus Prime with Chris Hemsworth, building the iconic "transforming" sound, the possibility of a sequel and more. 

After our interview, we give our full thoughts on the animated movie, discuss why "The Life of Chuck" doesn't yet have a release date and review both "The Substance" and the premiere of Max's new series "The Penguin."
