Customer Reviews
Awesome fun show!
This is such a fun podcast. I found it because the guys on Watchtower Database said they have a podcast and immediately loved it. The guys never take it overly seriously but drop cool facts about the show while having a good time. I grew up with the DCAU shows and movies and look forward to when each episode. Keep up the fantastic work guys and thanks again!
Wanted to drop an addendum to my original review. You guys are awesome and I remember telling my late brother and best friend Mike about the show and your YouTube channel. He told me a few weeks after I introduced him to the show and channel that he was happy he knew about it. He passed away back in the summer of 2022 and whenever I listen to your podcast, I know he’s listening with me. He was a big Batman, Superman and superhero fan and I’m glad I could suggest the shows, channel and content.
Ty again for the awesome content and you guys are fantastic! Keep the great work coming and btw, I’m a Fox Kids and Kids’ WB! fan so hearing you mention shows like Pokemon and how you guys would include the Kids’ WB! shows like Superman: TAS and The New Batman Adventures. I hope you guys do Batman Beyond coming up and keep the amazing stuff coming. Stay Yoppy guys!
James and Brian are schway
Nearly a decade ago, I wrote an article on an unfortunately now-defunct Batman fansite gushing over the brilliance of the Watchtower Database’s webcomic Legacies of the DCAU. Almost 10 years later and the Watchtower Database continues to bring that level of brilliance to exploring the DCAU in what is in some ways their most comprehensive endeavor yet. The dynamic of this podcast is so exciting. The segments into which the podcast episodes are structured are awesome, and each episode I find it so fascinating to hear both the perspective of a DCAU expert who has watched the shows and movies numerous times and someone experiencing the shows and movies for the very first time. I already knew how much fun James was to listen to, and I am delighted to be able to say that about Brian as well. I think this podcast is only going to get more and more interesting the more DCAU that Brian consumes (I look forward to him eventually understanding the reference in the title of this review), so jump on the Bat-wagon now.
A very fun podcast!
Among the many DCAU podcasts out there this one is probably the most fun simply because this is the only one I know of where one of the hosts has never seen the DCAU! Having watched the DCAU repeatedly I know how much of a treat Brian is in for, so it’ll be exciting to see his journey through this great universe that Bruce Timm, Paul Dini, and so many others brought us. My favorite part is when Brian tries to guess what the episode is about!
