Batman the Animated Series Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Our hosts return to the podcave to review the episode, BIRDS OF A FEATHER.

Alex and Will are surprised at how good this episode is and if it wasn't for the somewhat disappointing ending, it would be in their top tier episodes list.

Our hosts talk about Penguin's dating game, why calling someone a FATSO is a brutal insult, and how Batman doesn't know what sexting is.

Alex also learns how to say the word 'lair' properly and Will has lighting issues during the recording.

Our hosts finally return to the podcave after a break and sit down to rank the first half of Batman the Animated Series.

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.

Will also shares his Kickstarter project as it reaches its final week of being live. Please pledge or share the link below to help him hit his stretch goals!

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.

Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to review the first part of the sci-fi inspired episode, HEART OF STEEL.

Alex and Will discuss the odes and inspirations behind this episode, including Blade Runner and 2001: A Space Odyssey.

They also theorise on what a date at Wayne Manor would look like, how Batman returned home with a broken glider, and why a robot with a laser eye almost sent Batman to his grave.

Our hosts also cast HARDAC in their live action fan-casted BTAS universe and Will announces the launch of Issue 3 of Outbreaks on KICKSTARTER (link below)!

Our hosts return to the podcave and jet off to Yucca Springs to review the episode, THE STRANGE SECRET OF BRUCE WAYNE; and you don't need a mind reading machine to know what they think of it!

Alex and Will share their thoughts on the first and only appearance of Hugo Strange in BTAS, as well as the episode's similarities to James Bond, and what they thought of the first villain team-up in this show.

They discuss a potential love affair between Gordon and Judge Vargas, the shoddy auction of Batman's identity with a tape clearly marked BRUCE WAYNE, and what Boss Biggis' mind reading session would look like.

Plus, our hosts cast Hugo Strange in their fan-casted live action BTAS universe, and Will shares his pre-launch page to his new KICKSTARTER (links below).

Our hosts return to the podcave and sit down to watch the worst episode yet (in their opinion), CAT SCRATCH FEVER.

Our hosts return to the podcave and with their ninja like review skills, they sit down and watch, NIGHT OF THE NINJA.

Alex and Will discuss Kyodai Ken's first appearance in the DCAU and why Dick and Bruce's partnership continues to drift apart after the events of Robin's Reckoning.

Our hosts also discuss the Ninja's purple knockout gas, why Alfred travelled with Bruce when he was training, and a special episode of WEED MANOR manages to find its way in, somehow.

They also cast Kyodai Ken in their live-action BTAS universe, plus Will teases his DC comics Batman script.
