Debuting on October 9, 2013, the show has been going for nearly eight years as of 2021. On February 4 2015 the show premiered a sister show, Ranger Danger Dino Charge, where they review episodes of the current incarnation of Power Rangers, Dino Super Charge. They did the same for Power Rangers Ninja Steel up until they felt the load of doing both old and new episodes weekly was too much and dropped the newer epiosde series in order to focus on the weekly episodes of the older seasons.As of November 2021, they have started covering Power Rangers Wild Force and new episodes are released every Tuesday at 3:00 p.m EST.
The podcast is often quite unsparing with snark aimed at mocking the cheapness of the show, both in terms of its production quality as well as its story quality. However, the hosts do all have a certain affection for the series and are not unwilling to throw it a bone every now and again.

Tropes include:
- All Men Are Perverts: Subverted with Mat and Michael but very much so with Lauren. Especially with the Ranger Danger Bonezone Patreon special. During the Lost Galaxy episodes, Lauren developed the Ranger Danger Beast Feast to rank monsters on their sex appeal and speculated on their value as sexual partners. Starting with Lightspeed Rescue, she's developed the Ranger Danger BMD (Bone/Marry/Destroy) to determine whether a monster is worth having sex with, marrying or if it should just be destroyed outright.
- Go Mad from the Revelation: Covering a Power Rangers Turbo episode that featured a relative misuse of the term 'invisibly' brought the hosts close, but more out of frustration. Learning that the writer of that episode wrote seventeen later episode was enough to cause them to laugh... unpleasantly. That's not even getting into the episode Power Rangers Turbo S1E41 Little Strong Man which caused Matt such existential dread that he claims to still think about it to this day
- Mad Libs Catchphrase: "Mighty Morphin' [something] Danger".
- Straight Man and Wise Guy: They tend to alternate between them which one of them fits into which role at any given time.
- Running Gag: The fake sponsors' adds. Which always comes just in time before the recap/review of the episode. Near the end of Lost Galaxy, the bit was retired after a string of episodes where Matt gave the sponsor to a fraud and potential murderer. It Makes Just As Much Sense In Context
