Our hosts return to the Podcave to revisit one of the darkest and most beloved episodes of Batman: The Animated Series: “Over the Edge.”

Alex and Will break down why this haunting story still stands tall as one of the very best episodes in the entire DCAU, and give praise to Bob Hastings, who delivers an Emmy-worthy performance as Commissioner Gordon.

Along the way, the discussion covers everything from Barbara Gordon’s stress-fueled nightmare being directed by Christopher Nolan, to her uncanny ability to use this encounter as an excuse to dodge her household chores in the future.

Our hosts also unpack why Bane’s accent and outfit have mysteriously changed (hey, prison changes people), speculate on what Batman really carries in his utility belt, and discuss why Gordon jumps to the wrong conclusions when Barbara sits him down for a “talk.”

A deep dive into grief and fear with some laughs along the way - Over the Edge remains just as powerful, unsettling, and unforgettable as ever.

Our hosts return to the podcave and ring in the New Year by getting their ROX off and bust out their review of the episode, The Ultimate Thrill.

Alex and Will discuss the introduction of Roxy Rocket (aka Batman's one night stand) and how she's horned up for danger 24/7. Edging herself until the end, where she experiences the ultimate "thrill" and shows us what a chartoon character's "O-FACE" actually looks like. I guess being strapped to a vibrating rocket will do that to ya!

Our hosts also discover a new way for Batman to get his rocks off, why Alfred did not enjoy laundry day that week, and why "Shoot To Thrill" is the best AC/DC song.

Our hosts return to the Podcave and turn up the heat as they review “Torch Song.”

Alex and Will break down the first appearance of this fiery villain, comparing this version to his comic-book origins dating back to the 1950s.

They also question how Firefly managed to build a full suit and jetpack in a single night, why Cassidy is portrayed as a victim blamer, and can't deny that her music is FIRE.

Plus, Firefly tries out as Boba Fett with a lightsaber, Batman tries out as Iron Man with horns, and Firefly hosts a ROAST in his honour.

Our hosts return to the Podcave and emerse themselves in sewage as they review the episode, Love Is a Croc.

Alex and Will discuss this odd, romantic criminal team-up as well as their redesigns and new voice actors.

They also uncover a new surprise spokeswoman for Killer Croc’s Killer Wings, debate exactly where Alfred draws the line on laundry, and explore why Killer Croc has absolutely no patience for Baby-Doll’s baby talk.

Our hosts return to the Podcave and are joined by returning special guest Mathew Valencia, the voice of Robin, to review his favourite episode, GROWING PAINS.

Mathew shares memories of making this Emmy Award–winning episode and explains why it remains so special to him. He highlights his time working with Ron Perlman and Francesca Marie Smith, and how collaborating with them elevated his performance and pushed him to take on a more serious approach for this episode.

Alex and Will also discuss the redesign of Clayface, the episode’s continuity following his last appearance in MUDSLIDE, and the movie that inspired Annie’s look.

Also, Batman finds out who Daddy is...

Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to review the episode that flaunts itself all over town, Joker's Millions.

Alex and Will discuss the many redesigned characters that appear in this episode, including The Joker, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, and The Penguin. Then they shift their attention to the storyline and discuss it's more comical and silly side. Such as Joker committing crimes only for the money, or the fact that he's living in an apartment that would make even Harvey Bullock feel dirty to step foot in.

Our hosts also notice that Nightwing goes on a "just friends" date with Barbara to the Iceberg Lounge, Batman discovers a new way to interrogate thugs, and Joker gets imprisoned for tax evasion and meets a new character named D-Pop (don't ask what the D stands for).

Our hosts also create a team name for Nightwing and Catwoman and yes, it's the worst one possible. Plus, they talk about how Nightwing isn't up to date on the geographical origins of produce, why Catwoman is a rebound hook up, and discover a side to Superman and the people of Krypton that we all didn't know about (#GoingSuperman).
