    Tyger Tyger Review

    Tyger Tyger Review

    Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to watch The Island of Dr. Moreau -- I mean, Tyger Tyger.



    Alex and Will give credit to the animation and character design, but that's about as far as their positive thoughts go for this episode. The Island of Dr. Moreau and Batman just don't mix and this weird mash-up is proof of that.



    Our hosts discuss Dr. Dorian's weird obsession with cats and theorise on how that came to be. As well as Tygress' obsession with trying to get some pussycat, Gotham Zoo's poor security, and Batman's sudden love for poetry.

    Joker's Wild Review

    Joker's Wild Review

    Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to review the episode, JOKER'S WILD.



    Alex and Will chat about all of the Joker dialogue that they quote on a weekly basis, along with how they both thought that Lock-Up was introduced in this episode, but it turned out to just be some guy.



    Our hosts also talk about the patchy animation in this episode, what Bruce and Alfred had planned for a casino weekend, and what Batman's tear gas is really made up of.

    Special Guest - Batman TAS Background Artist Keith Weesner

    Special Guest - Batman TAS Background Artist Keith Weesner

    Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down with the very talented background artist, Keith Weesner.



    Alex and Will chat with Keith about the inspirations behind the legendary backgrounds that are featured in Batman the Animated Series and all of the DCAU shows.



    Keith shares stories about what backgrounds he's most proud of, what influences were behind his work, and the one episode of Batman that he made him so much money he bought a car. Plus, the hardships behind working on Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, and his life long friendship he has with Director Glen Murakami.



    Will also talks about the DC book he's working on now, plus what his next Kickstarter project will be!

    "If You're So Smart, Why Aren't You Rich?" Review

    Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to review the episode that features the first appearance of The Riddler in, "IF YOU'RE SO SMART, WHY AREN'T YOU RICH?"



    Will expresses his hatred for riddles, but his love for this version of The Riddler; and Alex reads some fun facts about the making of this episode, written in by BTAS Producer Alan Burnett.



    Our hosts also discuss Alfred's secret gaming obsession, Batman's inability to solve a riddle, and why Riddler is an absolute shagger.

    The Dark Knight Returns Review (or: Mud Match Slobber Knocker!)

    Alex and Ben return to the podcave for another special edition of Batman On The Big Screen and this time they're watching, THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS parts 1 & 2.



    Our hosts compare the film to the acclaimed graphic novel, focusing on the transition of comic art to animation, and wondering if the translation holds up.



    They also discuss the voice actors performances, their favourite scenes, the final showdown between Batman and Joker, and how Batman vs The Mutant Leader was like watching a WWE Pay Per View.

A weekly treasure

Each week before I listen to your podcast, I subject my nine and seven year old boys to watch the episode with me. It’s great sharing this show and watching together. Their favorite episode is hands down “joker’s favor” mainly because of the fart music and dialogue when joker pleads to Charlie at the end. “Look Charlie, you’ve had a busy day, all this running around, all this excitement with -BATMAN!!” That episode is a treasure! Thanks for bringing such a regular informative and fun filled hour and a half with all the podcasts details and guest speakers. So much behind the scenes content I had no idea. I’ve listened to all of your episodes and look forward to the rest.

New Fan

Just found this podcast roughly a week ago. I’m working my way through the back catalog, currently about 23 episodes in.

Absolutely love this show. Literally everything you could want in a Batman TAS podcast. Both host are hilarious (will more so). Not only do the review the show episode by episode but they have numerous guests from the show on as well. I laugh out loud to myself every episode.

5 stars if I could give more I would. That said I’m not up to date in the show so barring anything crazy happening they got me hooked.
