Our hosts return to the podcave for the final podcast of 2024 and sit down to review the somewhat festive episode, A BULLET FOR BULLOCK!

Alex and Will discuss this classic film noir detective story, taking note to highlight the incredible Emmy award winning music and the eye catching animation.

Our hosts also learn that Harvey Bullock is a disgusting, dirty slob and deserves to be kicked out of his apartment.

Plus, they talk about Bullock's new choice in pizza, what it would be like if Alfred hosted his own version of Queer Eye, and Bullock's faithful little cockroach friends.

Alex and Will also thank all of their subscribers and listeners for an amazing year of growth for the podcast and what it helped them achieve. LOVE YA!

Merry Christmas, ya filthy Bullocks! And a happy New Year!

Our hosts also get explanations on why Poison Ivy is a vegetarian, the many odes to films and comic books in this episode, and how Harley Quinn secretly gains super powers whilst staying in Toxic Acres.

Our hosts return to the podcave and look under the hood of the episode, THE MECHANIC.

Alex and Will talk about the introduction of Batman's personal mechanic, Earl Cooper and if they like this new addition to the "Bat Family" or not.

They also wonder if Earl is a typical mechanic and taking Batman for all he's worth. As well as noticing that Batman can't take an obvious warning of danger and what special private feature Penguin's umbrella might come with.

Our hosts also cast Earl Cooper in their live action fan-casted universe, but need your help to decide who it should be (see poll on Instagram or Spotify)! And Will talks about pages for Mobster Mash and his upcoming MARVEL book, Dr. Doom & Rocket Raccoon.

Who should play Earl Cooper?

• Delroy Lindo
• ​Keith David

Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to review the magically themed episode, ZATANNA.

Alex and Will discuss the character of Zatanna and her first appearance outside of the comics. As well as her relationship to Batman and their history.

They also discuss Zatanna's Father trying to hook them up as kids, why a tape recording of a villain's monologue makes no sense, and the moment Batman encounters another giant coin.

Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to review the episode, PAGING THE CRIME DOCTOR.

Alex and Will discuss why they love a good Gotham mobster story and why they loved all the tie-ins to Thomas Wayne's past in this episode.

They also theorise on why Rupert Thorne likes to give his men nicknames, how Thomas Wayne spelt Leslie Thompkins name wrong, and that the Wayne's aren't gone, they're just on a big holiday.

Plus, our hosts cast Matthew Thorne in their live action fan-casted universe and Will plugs his Kickstarter, Mobster Mash.

Our hosts return to the podcave and get stuck in with their review of, MUDSLIDE.

Alex and Will discuss the blend of classic monster movie and Alfred Hitchcock vibes in this episode. Highlighting the subway train and the laboratory sequences as the stand outs, as well as Ron Perlman's performance as Clayface.

Our hosts also notice that if Batman didn't get involved in this plot, Clayface would've been able to cure himself and that be one less problem for him to deal with in Gotham City.

They also discuss if Clayface has a smell and what it would be similar to, and how Alfred is dropping quality jokes that just go over Batman's head.

Our hosts return to the podcave and are joined by the one and only Paul Dini to review the episode, THE MAN WHO KILLED BATMAN.

Paul reflects on the making of the episode and shares many behind the scenes stories, including how the Simpson’s inspired the writing of this episode, where the name Sid the Squid comes from, and why his car ride home on the day of the recording was memorable.

He also dives deep into Harley Quinn’s character development in this episode, gives an answer on if the Joker truly loves her, and shares the one scene that he will never write again for the character.

Plus, Paul gives his thoughts on the many versions of Harley Quinn that have come afterwards, including the recent Caped Crusader version and Lady Gaga's.

He also shares the future of the comic book series, Batman the Adventure Continues. Plus, our hosts create a new idea for a Batman spin-off story with Paul that involves a Barista, creating a new alias for Bruce Wayne in the process.

In addition to this mega episode, our hosts cast Sid Squid in their fan-cast universe, Alex talks about the TV series, The Penguin, and Will announces his new KICKSTARTER project, which everyone can check out here:
