3Ranger Danger is a podcast created by two Australian guys, Mat and Michael, who are (obviously) fans of the television series ''Franchise/PowerRangers''. In this weekly podcast they watch an episode of the show, then break it down and chat about it, either between the two of them or with guests. Starting with Series/{{Power Rangers Lost Galaxy}} , the hosts expanded the regular cast to include Tim and Lauren; with the two of them and Matt swapping out every couple of episodes as the co-host to Michael.

5Debuting 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, [[Series/PowerRangersDinoCharge Dino Super Charge]]. They did the same for Series/{{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.
6As of November 2021, they have started covering Series/{{Power Rangers Wild Force}} and new episodes are released every Tuesday at 3:00 p.m EST.

8The 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.

16* AllMenArePerverts: 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.
17* GoMadFromTheRevelation: Covering a Power Rangers Turbo episode [[Recap/PowerRangersTurboS1E24VanishingAct 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 Recap/{{Power Rangers Turbo S1E41 Little Strong Man}} which caused Matt such existential dread that he claims to still think about it to this day
18* MadLibsCatchphrase: "Mighty Morphin' [something] Danger".
19* StraightManAndWiseGuy: They tend to alternate between them which one of them fits into which role at any given time.
