The Bat Royale continues! This week, Dave, Neil, and Joanna continue their Batman Trial Royale with the 21st century division. But first, they have an update on their big movie bet in the wake of the box office success of ‘Barbie’ (6:51). Then, they get back to Batman by discussing his history as a detective (9:07). Later, they go through some more pretrial dismissals and awards (46:20) before breaking down the four Batmen that will be on this week’s poll (52:50).

Now it’s up to you to decide! Who is the best Batman of the 21st century? You can vote for the winner at TheRinger.com, on The Ringer’s Twitter feed, and in the Spotify app, where you’ll find ‘Trial by Content.’ The winner will be announced next week!

You can send your picks for next week’s topic and a few sentences to support your pick to [email protected]. You can also submit suggestions for future ‘Trial by Content’ topics. Is there a great pop culture debate that you’d like us to settle? Send it on over!
