In episode 92 of the Man of Screen podcast, Mike Zummo will look at two more episodes of the 1973 season of Super Friends.

First were going to talk about pollution. Well, just about everyone is going to talk about it as you listen. But mostly the show is going to talk about it as one man – Dr. Pelagian – will declare war on polluters of the Earths oceans. Three in particular.

Who is in the wrong here? And what can be done about it? What will happen when the Super Friends encounter “Dr. Pelagians War”?

And then the Junior Super Friends are going to go hiking and theyre going to find a giant U on the side of the mountain. What is in the mountain that is so interesting? And did this episode really give us a clever word pun in the title?

Find out what happens when Wendy Marvin and Wonder Dog encounter “The Shamon U”.

Next time: There will be a heat wave in “Too Hot To Handle” and then the good guys will be set up when the Super Friends take on “The Androids”.
