Show notes

This week we chat with the man, the myth, the legend, the King of Kinetic Energy: Ray Billings! Ray has one of the most incredible careers in all of combat robots having competed in Battlebots since the Comedy Central days all the way to the reboot! Tombstone holds the distinction as one of the few winners of the Giant Bolt and the Giant Nut! He’s also competed at some of the most prestigious events in the western hemisphere such as Robogames, NHRL, Robocore, Motorama, and numerous robot events coast to coast. Besides highlights from Ray’s incredible career we’ll also touch on (non-spoiler) recaps of the Battlebots Pro League and NHRL’s May Pro Tour events!
