Normal Friends

In a very special Normal Friends, we discuss the Super Friends Season 1 finale, and bid a fond farewell to the Junior Super Friends Wendy, Marvin, and Wonder Dog, who, following this episode, disappear forever. Did they retire? Were they fired? Did they die? Listen for Michel and Roger's answers to these questions and more!

Space Mining! Diamond Heists! Superman's full origin story! Roger and Michel jump into a Super Friends episode that mashes three partial episodes together while still managing to avoid any real stakes. It's an animated storytelling wonder!

Marvin on stilts! Shrunken Justice Leaguers! A Green Arrow guest appearance! This episode has it all! Listen as Michel and Roger break it all down in typically hilarious and insightful fashion.

Roger and Michel speculate as to the nature of Colonel Wilcox's career freefall and mysterious de-aging before discussing a Super Friends episode that features everything: air conditioner heists, toxic marriages, bottomless caves, "walk water," tandem bikes, and more!

Michel and Roger mistakenly identify this episode of Super Friends as containing the series' first use of kryptonite before exploring the nature of the Yeti and actually paying the show multiple compliments.

In an appeal to nostalgia, let's say, Roger and Michel harken back to earlier episodes by not sounding great. They also further explore villain types, Super Friends "science," overlong Aquaman scenes, and so much more.

Michel and Roger ward off any and all legal action regarding their status, or lack thereof, as "normal friends" before diving into a Super Friends episode featuring bizarre acronyms and the rare healthy relationship.

Roger and Michel return to their normal podcasting format and talk about a Super Friends episode they watched prior to recording. Instead of extended silences and poorly synchronized pausing, thrill to discussions of encyclopedias and what we expected the title "The Balloon People" to actually mean!

In this installment, Michel and Roger (who both sound great, by the way) change things up. Rather than discussing a Super Friends episode they've already watched, they watch the episode together WHILE RECORDING and make comments along the way. That's right! This is a watch-along podcast for Super Friends, Season 1, Episode 8, "The Androids." If you have access to Super Friends (which, at present, isn't streaming anywhere), please watch with us. If you don't have access to Super Friends, you are more than welcome to listen, but much of what you hear won't make any sense. Then again, we're very charming, so it should still be an enjoyable listen.

Roger and Michel (sounding pretty good) discuss the use of numbers as words, the darkness at Wendy's core, and the wisdom of terraforming your own backyard before committing planetwide genocide elsewhere.
