Bat Minute

Jon and Niall are currently guest hosts over at the wonderful Die Hard Minute podcast! For five days this week (beginning 30/10/17) they will be digging into the classic film Die Hard, along with a guest or two.

Here is a sample to whet your appetite for more. This clip had to be edited out of the final show, but we thought it would amuse our listeners all the same.

This is a clip from the second episode, which is covering Minute 22 and our guest is Rikky Wiley.

Find Die Hard Minute on ALL your podcatchers NOW!

Enjoy!

Joker is feeling crafty and doing a little scrapbooking. He can't be all evil, all the time!

After losing his mojo upon seeing a picture of Knox, he is suddenly back in the game when rather taken by the stunning Vicki! What will Joker's plan be for Ms Vale? There's mooky involved, at least!

Throw in silk shirts and crayons galore and we've got some top notch Bat chat, folks!

Joining the investigation today is none other than the Movies by Minutes queen herself, Crystal Beth! You will undoubtedly have heard her on many of your favourite shows, as well as hosting her own: namely The Fifth Eleminute and Unlimited Lives! Also a veteran stand-up comic, Crystal brings her own unique Element to today's snooping and makes it one not to miss!

The next episode follows on Wednesday!

WHAT IS UP WITH THE ALLEY AT PEARL AND PHILLIPS STREETS?!?

Well, first of all it doesn't remotely look like an alley, so write that down.

The real questions are: just what is Bruce up to? And how DDID Joker bring people a smile(x)?

Get the answers to these questions and some lovely new, psychotic, artwork (in audio form) by tuning in to today's exciting edition of Bat Minute '89!

The next episode follows on Monday!

It's the OG Recipe as Jon and Niall bring it to thee - sans guest! Just the dynamic duo themselves for a well earned break.

There's no break in the fun though as Bruce and his barista-esque butler politely battle - complete with Alfred being sent off on a special errand of his own.

In a lovely turn of events, Master Wayne finally realises just how darn lovely Vicki is. Aww.

Something special is brewing, however...

The next episode follows on Friday!

DEAD BODIES EVERYWHERE!

As cops clean up the crime, the mayor can only worry about the festival - and his hot dogs. He goes full 'Jaws' on Gotham!

Meanwhile, Joker has been busy decorating - his lair now complete with boxing gloves and porcelain dogs. Toot toot y'all.

Bruce arrives back home and steals from Alfred before collapsing onto the couch. He doesn't know what is to come...

A very special guest investigator has joined our dynamic duo for today's sleuthing - none other than comedian Bec Hill! You may know Bec from her stand-up shows (frequently at the Edinburgh Fringe), her comedy night 'Pun Run', or from her time hosting the Sky show 'DC Fancast'. With credentials like these, who better to get to the bottom of this nonsense with style and panache?

Our mystery man is revealed and he's armed with... a feather?

It appears that Grissom DID sign his businesses away to these guys - but with his dead hands, covered in his own blood. IT WAS A HIT! A CON!

Meanwhile, many a mime will congregate like a march of penguins and shots will be fired.

NECKS WILL BE PIERCED!

Back on the case to conclude this week's investigation is Sean German - the magnificent miming maestro behind both the Spinal Tap Minute and Five Minutes of Mime podcasts. Can Sean's specialities help break the silence of these suspicious scoundrels? Tune in to find out, Bat fans!

Vicki has clearly missed a scoop - what is going on at city hall?!?

A wild mime appears. Then another. THEN ANOTHER. MIMES EVERYWHERE!

The only thing creepier? The clothes on this damn kid in the crowd!

While all of these shenanigans take place, Bob gets his secret snaps for something suspicious.

Mobsters arrive on the scene to announce they are the new kings in town, but a dashing, clown-like fellow, emerges to rain on their parade...

Once again helping the gang prance their way through the meadows of mystery is Movies by Minutes alum Sean German! Sean has presided over the phenomenal Spinal Tap Minute and Five Minutes of Mime podcasts, so he knows how to chat his way to the facts and can break these damn mimes down minute by minute.

A new week of Bat Minute '89 brings new questions:

• Is this location supposed to be an alleyway?!?
• Why does Vicki think it's perfectly okay to ruin something that seems to mean so much to Bruce? (Nice undercover hat though...)
• Are these gangsters IDIOTS?
• Why do these other reports find Knox even slightly funny?

The Bat Minute Men will attempt to get to bottom of all of this, brooding Bruce and even more as they chat their way through the weeds of Tim Burton's 'Batman'.

This week's investigation will be aided by a Movies by Minutes veteran: the one and only Sean German! You will know Sean from his fantastic work on Spinal Tap Minute, as well as his duties as Mime Master General over at the wonderful and unique Five Minutes of Mime podcast. Can Sean help our dynamic duo tap the tree of truth? Tune in to find out, Bat fans!

The next episode follows on Wednesday.

STEAM, STEAM, STEAM! It's everywhere!  All over the city! INESCAPABLE!

Meanwhile, Vicki goes full crazy and is in hot pursuit of her man. She could probably have done with choosing some rather less conspicuous attire though...

Deep in the city, a shade-clad Bruce drops some flowers off at a mysterious, seemingly random, location. Or is it random?

The only way to find out is to tune in for more action, excitement and fun - right here on Bat Minute '89!

Joining the investigation today is the multi-talented singer, songwriter and voice actor Bryarly Bishop! With Bryarly on the scene no mystery will be unsolved and no steam will go unnoticed. Make sure to check out her music or get in touch if you'd like to work with her for some stellar voice-overs! Or to stalk Bat-men, of course.

The next episode follows on Monday.

What better way to start your Wednesday than with a smouldering corpse? That's what Joker thinks, at least!

While it steams away, Vicki and Knox do a little snooping on Mr Wayne. This starts with going through any and all files on the man and soon descends into literal stalking. I hope for Vicki's sake that she dons a decent disguise...

To help our dynamic duo stalk their way through the minute at hand is Ash Lerczak (aka Doc Horror) - master musician with Zombina & The Skeletones, Double Echo and White Blacula.

The next episode follows on Friday.
