Welcome to a brand new season of 'By the Power'! and for our 51st episode its a hugely popular cartoon for lots of very good reasons.

We discuss what some of us consider to be the best version of Batman, a beautifully animated cartoon which is almost certainly in Jamie's top five cartoons ever.

AND as its a new season we have a brand new quiz, Brand new features and the same old mix of nonsense and fun we hope you all love.

This week we watched '"Almost Got 'Im' " which was episode 46 from Season 1 of Batman: the Animated Series.

Batman: The Animated Series S03E01

Four men, two decades of cartoons, three braincells and a tendency to go completely off topic.
If you're looking for facts and well made points, keep moving. If you love cartoons and talking nonsense, then take a seat and put your feet up friend, as we take a look into the crazy world of 80's and 90's cartoons. 
Brought to you by Stuart, James, Jamie and Kane.

Comedy Interviews

This week Alvin and the Chipmunks sing us out for our final episode EVER. (unless there is money involved, or beer probably)
We manage to hold back the tears as we take a last look at an 80's or 90's cartoon and barely talk about it.. we get distracted talking about food.
There is the deciding round of 'Would I lie to you' and LOTS of nonsense.
This week we watched Alvin and the Chipmunks Season 1 episode 8(5a) Mr Fabulous.


Its honestly been a pleasure to share this with you all, but for now.
Thank you and Goodbye.







Alvin and the Chipmunks S03E20

This week the old kids on the block watch the 'New Kids On The Block' and its a shocker!
This famously famous bad cartoon gets the squad juices flowing in an episode chosen by Jamie because he likes Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! yes this weeks choice is THAT tenuous as we watched S01E04 "Cowa-BONK-a"!!
We discuss how the cartoon representations of Mick, Chad, Huey and Albert ( I watched it for 20 minues and researched this cartoon and I still don't know their names!) really dont add much.
As we approach the END of BTP we still legally have to talk nonsense and do a quiz and stuff and try to offend at least someone listening so enjoy all of that in this weeks fantastic episode.

New Kids On The Block

The star of this week’s award-winning podcast has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The protagonist on this nationally acclaimed ear organism of an episode has squared off against both the Avengers and the Fantastic Four…
Gojira, Kaiju, the king of the monsters, gorilla whale, big mother sticker with much junk in the truck…
 
Whatever you want to call him (*oh shoot) (*he/she/it/plant/Mars Bar/artificial limb…fook knows what the correct pro-noun is currently), one thing we can all agree on…Godzilla takes shits bigger than Kane’s nose…Sorry bro. Cheap shot.
 
This week it is James’s choice, and he has picked the 90’s cartoon; ‘Godzilla: The Series’. This pretty much picks up where the 90’s film finished off.
 
James did a James this week and we all watched different episodes of the series. Some of us watched, ‘An Early Frost’ and some of us reviewed ‘Web Site’. We are as well prepared as Godzilla doing a Dr. Pepper advert. You read that correctly.
 
I’ve got a few words to play with so I’m doing it…: Godzilla was originally going to be a giant, mutated octopus called Dan. Godzilla is a cross between a Tyrannosaurus, an Iguanodon, a Stegosaurus, and alligator and Dale Winton. Facts.
 
Whilst I am at it, palaeontologist Mike P Taylor, claims that the limb cartilage in a Godzilla-sized animal would be crushed “like over-ripe watermelons” by its own body weight and therefor the G-man could never exist. Fuck you, Mike. I bet the P stands for twat.
 
Have a listen to the pod for the usual bollocks, ‘would you rather’, ‘would I lie to you’ and all that other jazz.
 
If you like a professional podcast, I wouldn’t bother with this. If you don’t care about quality but love a ‘little person’ joke, then pull up a chair.

Godzilla S03E18

Its T time fools!

This Yorkshire based cartoon involves Mr T a character who shows people the correct way to make a cuppa tea! (Get pot, hot water to warm, empty, add tea, hot water, leave 2 mins 45 seconds, pour into cup with milk already in).

Actually it's THE Mister T with an import message on avoiding child kidnappin molestors! Dont eat a hamburger if two strange adults come up to you and offer it.

Its a serious subject, but a not very serious episode as you would expect from us lot.

All our usual fantastic features are here as we discuss Mister T S01E23 "Mystery of the stranger"
