Our hosts return to the podcave -- only to find themselves transported back to foggy ol’ London, as they sit down to review The Lion and the Unicorn. Alex and Will try to figure out what century this version of London is supposed to be set in, while picking up some colourful British slang along the way, such as: “old love,” “stone the crows,” and “a pair of poxy ghosts!”They also come to the conclusion that British Intelligence might be just as useless as the Gotham Police, by letting Batman and Robin just get on with it. Plus, they speculate that Alfie and Freddie’s “usual place” sounds suspiciously like code for a dogging site, and wonder how Red Claw hasn’t figured out that tying men to chairs and slapping them for info is... well, something people pay for!Tip Jar: https://buymeacoffee.com/batmantaspodJoin Our Discord - https://discord.com/invite/bQF76V3nUsOutbreaks Vol. 1 Launch Page - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/outbreaks-volume-1-an-ongoing-zombie-anthology-series?ref=discovery&term=outbreaks&total_hits=1475&category_id=252Follow us on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@batmantaspod?_t=8zn1yhsgnfz&_r=1Follow us on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@batmantaspodFollow the Pod on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/batmantaspod/Follow the Pod on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BatmanTASPod/Follow the Pod on Twitter - https://twitter.com/batmantaspod1Subscribe to Will's Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/willrobsonSpeech Comics Website - https://www.speechcomics.com/Monster Mash 1-2 Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/mobster-mash-1-2-classic-movie-monsters-as-mobstersWill's WhatNot Page - https://www.whatnot.com/user/speechcomics

Baby-Doll Review
Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to review possibly the most hauntingly human episode of BTAS, Baby-Doll. Alex and Will dive into Baby-Doll’s first appearance, unpacking the inspiration behind Paul Dini’s creation of the character and why her tragic story still hits hard.Of course, it wouldn’t be a review without a few classic Gotham oddities. Such as an unexpectedly lethal, karate-kicking henchman, or Robin’s strange slogans as an amateur TV critic. Plus, a fairground in Gotham that isn't condemned or crawling with Joker gas, and how Batman nearly got capped in a jungle gym.And if you don’t like what Alex and Will have to say about it... well, just remember, "we didn’t mean to..."Tip Jar: https://buymeacoffee.com/batmantaspodJoin Our Discord - https://discord.com/invite/bQF76V3nUsOutbreaks Vol. 1 Launch Page - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/outbreaks-volume-1-an-ongoing-zombie-anthology-series?ref=discovery&term=outbreaks&total_hits=1475&category_id=252Follow us on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@batmantaspod?_t=8zn1yhsgnfz&_r=1Follow us on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@batmantaspodFollow the Pod on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/batmantaspod/Follow the Pod on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BatmanTASPod/Follow the Pod on Twitter - https://twitter.com/batmantaspod1Subscribe to Will's Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/willrobsonSpeech Comics Website - https://www.speechcomics.com/Will's WhatNot Page - https://www.whatnot.com/user/speechcomics

Bane Review
Our hosts return to the Podcave and get yoked as they dive into the animated debut of Gotham’s most venomous villain—Bane! Alex and Will break down the lethal luchador’s first appearance outside the comics, noting how the muscle-bound menace had been in publication for only a year before making the leap to TV.They also imagine what would happen if he launched his own line of protein powders and how a certain butler gets hooked on them and becomes a "bro". Plus, Robin throws down in a sibling-style squabble in the pool, and Batman makes a questionable moral call, leaving Candice at the mercy of a well-known dangerous gangster.Flex your podcast-listening muscles and join us for a pump-up session of Bat-history, animated analysis, and some seriously swole speculation!Tip Jar: https://buymeacoffee.com/batmantaspodJoin Our Discord - https://discord.com/invite/bQF76V3nUsOutbreaks Vol. 1 Launch Page - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/outbreaks-volume-1-an-ongoing-zombie-anthology-series?ref=discovery&term=outbreaks&total_hits=1475&category_id=252Follow us on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@batmantaspod?_t=8zn1yhsgnfz&_r=1Follow us on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@batmantaspodFollow the Pod on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/batmantaspod/Follow the Pod on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BatmanTASPod/Follow the Pod on Twitter - https://twitter.com/batmantaspod1Subscribe to Will's Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/willrobsonSpeech Comics Website - https://www.speechcomics.com/Will's WhatNot Page - https://www.whatnot.com/user/speechcomics

Catwalk Review
Our hosts return to the Podcave to review the episode, Catwalk.Unfortunately, it’s not one that claws its way into their hearts. They both agree that the episode is surprisingly bland and forgettable, falling flat like a plank of wood.Dong Yang lets it "hang" a bit too much in this episode, as they over animate Scarface's expressions, turning him from a puppet into a real boy. Making him less creepy and more cartoonish, which undermines his intimidation.Our hosts also joke about Catwoman's cringe poetry recitals, and her apparent belief that the Tasmanian Tiger is a cat and not a marsupial. Plus, they wonder if the giant log fight between Batman and Rhino was overcompensating for something?

Time Out Of Joint Review
Our hosts return to the podcave and start their clocks for a timely review of TIME OUT OF JOINT.Alex and Will dive into The Clock King’s latest time-altering gadget and explore how he suddenly becomes one of the most dangerous foes Batman and Robin have ever faced. But, despite the high stakes, this episode takes on a surprisingly light-hearted tone—reminding our hosts of the colorful antics of Batman 66'.Plus, how much of a know-it-all is Batman when trapped in time? Einstein's theory of relativity and E = mc2...more like E = mc NERD!In addition, our hosts accidentally invent a brand-new dog call for Robin, find an unexpected new use for the word Wasabi, discover a new way to eat beans, and imagine the explicit scenario that ensues when Alfred gets his hands on the time device. Tick-tock—Alfred's touching his...this one’s a wild ride!Tip Jar: https://buymeacoffee.com/batmantaspodJoin Our Discord - https://discord.com/invite/bQF76V3nUsMobster Mash Kickstarter - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/mobster-mash-1-classic-movie-monsters-as-mobstersFollow us on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@batmantaspod?_t=8zn1yhsgnfz&_r=1Follow us on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@batmantaspodFollow the Pod on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/batmantaspod/Follow the Pod on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BatmanTASPod/Follow the Pod on Twitter - https://twitter.com/batmantaspod1Subscribe to Will's Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/willrobsonSpeech Comics Website - https://www.speechcomics.com/Will's WhatNot Page - https://www.whatnot.com/user/speechcomics
