Toku Secrets Podcast: Episode 205 – Power Rangers’ Walter Jones Explains Cancelled Cyber Force Project Featuring Austin St. John & Thuy Trang

Walter Emanuel Jones (MMPR Black Ranger), Austin St. John (MMPR Red Ranger), and the late Thuy Trang (MMPR Yellow Ranger) famously departed during Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 2.
