It’s time to Ranger Up with @trekkieb47, @secretrangerfan & @ZachLaVoy as they talk all things Power Rangers on the Four Eyed Radio Network with RANGER COMMAND POWER HOUR!

Trigger Warning (TW): Suicide, Death

“Hello listeners.

This is Eric from Ranger Command with a little bit of a pre-show heads up of what to expect in this episode. So, this episode is not going to be edited… or very light editing. So there may be some swears that are unbleeped, especially during the last half of this podcast – which is… interview that Joshua Aaron Moore did with Jason David Frank, who passed away over the past week.

This episode is a tribute to Jason David Frank and we are honoring him by not having our typical… uh…you won’t find an ad read. You’re not going to find an intro or an advertisement or anything like that.

So, just a heads up that if you don’t feel comfortable listening to this episode because we do talk about suicide… then, please skip this episode until you’re ready to listen to it. Until you want to pay your respects to Jason David Frank.

There are many listener stories, as well. Many listeners have shared their thoughts on JDF and I know that can open up a lot of emotions for people. So, this serves as a trigger warning (TW) not only for suicide, but also for the deep emotions that losing someone like Jason David Frank will cause.

A.P., Zach and I also discuss our feelings, and like I said, this will barely be edited. This is our raw emotions, recorded only a couple days after he passed. If you or someone you love needs help, please reach out to someone.

If you’re in the United States, the Suicide Hotline is 988. If you’re in the U.K., the Suicide Hotline is 0800 689 5652; if it’s an emergency, that’s 112. And then, if you are in New Zealand, emergency is 111 and the Suicide Hotline is 1737. You can find more suicide hotlines or more resources internationally at https://blog.opencounseling.com/suicide-hotlines/ – that’s where we got this information.

Thank you for listening and Rest in Peace, JDF.”

PRESS RELEASE: Power Morphicon Express Is Hitting the Road

Power Morphicon Express

OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE

August 18th 2018 – ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA: Just announced at the Official Power Morphicon Convention, a BRAND-NEW traveling version of Power Morphicon called POWER MORPHICON EXPRESS will be hitting the road. It will take the fun and excitement of the original Power Morphicon Convention and bring the largest official Power Rangers fan convention to life in a collection of new cities.

Power Morphicon Convention is the biggest and only officially recognized Power Rangers fan convention in the world since 2007. It has been led by veteran convention and show runner Scott Zillner since its second expo in 2010. Now after six explosively successful shows, Power Morphicon Convention is ready to take the express route.

Jason David Frank, best know as Tommy Oliver (the original Green Ranger and most popular and active actor over the course of the show’s 25-year run), will lead the show across various cities, making sure that everyone has the opportunity to get in on the Power Rangers Convention fun and adventures. Just like the large-scale show which takes place every two years in Southern California, Power Morphicon Express will give fans the opportunity to meet a collection of their favorite Power Rangers actors, hear them speak in panels, buy incredible merchandise in the vendor hall, and see Power Rangers inspired art by local artists.

Power Morphicon Express will hit the road in 2019 with its first stop scheduled in Pasadena, Texas.
