    Episode 07: S•U•P•E•R F•R•I•E•N•D•S

    The kids in Metropolis are getting smarter, so we have to take a good hard look at ourselves. Also: episodic confusion, animated animal appetites, Matthew Perry's Home Free, rock 'n roll flamingos, and could Superman save us all?

  2. 01/30/2020

    Episode 06: Sexy Chicken

    This one has been 'in the can' for a while, so forgive our news for no longer being quite so newsworthy as when we first newsed it. But what's this making headlines in Metropolis? A spate of suspicious arsons, that's what. Also: the hierarchy of girls, Crisis on Infinite Depps, the deadliest catch with Craig David, mob choreography, the potent commercial power of titular apostrophisation, and the I-FBI.

    Episode 05: Sports?

    Lois and Clark get sporty, so we spend the whole episode talking about underwear. And then we fight. (With our thumbs). Also: poker visors, fancy dress chess, rubbish robots, Clooney for a day, and the two syllable rule.

  4. 07/16/2019

    Episode 04: He's Super!

    An invisible man (or mans) is haunting Metropolis, and it turns out we have rather a lot to say about that. Also: Hey it's That Guy multiball, fun fur, dream sequences, non-science, the return of the IMDB game, and what's better - flight or invisibility?

    Bonus Episode: One Dawson Ago

    By popular demand, here's our first bonus episode for your (possible) listening pleasure: our hot take on the 1998 pilot episode of Dawson's Creek, the vehicle that catapulted JVDB into our collective orbits. This was recorded over the summer, so please forgive the less-than-current movie references towards the end of the podcast (and if you're really jonesing to find out the name of the film-within-a-film, it was 'Waiting For Guffman'). New Lois & Clark episodes coming shortly!

    Episode 03: Like a Rhinestone Cowboy

    Our attention turns to 'Neverending Battle', episode three of Lois & Clark, and we get confused by some tricky nail-based terminology. Also: the Five Supermans film club, audible scribbling, the shared M*A*S*H cinematic universe, Paul f$%£!king Bettany, and a man and his hawk.

  7. 11/30/2018

    Episode 02: All Apologies

    We discuss the second episode of Lois and Clark, 'Strange Visitor (From Outer Space), and have many, many things to apologise for. Also: competing theme tunes, magic breath, disposing of spaceships, the second sexiest instrument, and the top five eeny meeny miny movies.

  8. 11/11/2018

    Episode 01 - Part 4: Superman

    The exciting conclusion of the Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman pilot episode, and it's time for the Big Blue Boy Scout himself to make his entrance. Also: how to dress a henchman, evil dusting, sewing montages, Dr. Cop goes dark, and a thrilling cliffhanger...

    Episode 01 - Part 3: Lex

    We're back for the third part of our breakdown of the Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman pilot, and it's time for some villany in the form of one Lex Luthor. Also: the majesty of John Shea, staring down snakes, giblets, and Mr. Green Jeans.

  10. 11/11/2018

    Episode 01 - Part 2: Clark

    Part two of our bumper first episode discussing the pilot of Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, and who's this pulling into Metropolis? Why, Clark Kent, that's who! Also: the Revengers, a return to fact corner, and a visit from Dr. Cop. He might not be the hero we need, but he is the hero we deserve.

  11. 11/11/2018

    Episode 01 - Part 1: Lois

    We dive into the pilot episode of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, and get as far as meeting Lois Lane. Also: alternate podcast titles, JVDB, the 1994 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Main Title Theme Music, and the drinking habits of the royal family.
