Plumbing The Death Star

In which our heroes come ready with opinions, observations and their general feelings on what they thought of the latest cinematic masterpiece from Marvel Studios. We discuss how right and wrong our prediction were, give James some free material for his next ‘Every Easter Egg in the Avengers’ YouTube video and compare a lot of things to Empire Strikes Back. Zammit was mildly entertained, James loved it, Duscher is angry and Alli is just happy to have been allowed in the studio. So listen in as four adults talk about that movie where a bunch of guys are fighting robots on a floating island where one of them has a bow. There will be spoilers, in fact, it’s all spoilers.

In which our heroes take a trip to Nal Hutta, start chatting to the locals and endeavour to start a criminal empire as we question just how the Hutts rose to power. We try to figure out how slug like the Hutts actually are, dry retch at the idea of Hutt Grease, and wonder if Hutts are just all muscle. Jackson proposes a symbiotic relationship between Hutts and Salacious Crumbs, James points out the similarities between Marlon Brando and the Hutts, and Zammit just wishes he could say Twilek without thinking of the delicious Twix chocolate caramel cookie bar, available from all good confectionary stores now. Twix. It’s the only one with the cookie crunch. So watch in awe as the Hutts exchange their evolutionary advantages for a life of crime, make human women dance for their entertainment and slither head first into the Great Pit of Carkoon.Want to help fund a study to prove the Hutt-Crumb hypothesis?

In which our heroes make a wish, blurt out the truth without thinking and hijack an airport staircase, all while wondering what the ramifications of Liar Liar are? We look at how much of Fletcher’s motivation comes from redemption versus compulsion, if he should have a spin-off buddy film with Robocop, try to figure out if the kid making the wish has magical powers and as a group completely misunderstand how the powers of the wish work. Jackson wants Fletcher to use his powers for good, Zammit is convinced Jim Carrey knows everything and Duscher just wants people to stop comparing things to the film Lucy. It’s a case of disorder in the court as we try desperately to lie and just end up with blue ink all over our faces.Want to help us come up with a wish based truth serum?

In which our heroes study up on the latest rumours, disregard it all in favour of wild accusations before turning to outright lies as we speculate what’s gonna happen in the Avengers 2: Age of Ultron. We predict inevitable character deaths, inevitable infinity stone reveals and inevitable trips for Hulk into space. Zammit explains the popularity of Russian ballet troops in the 60s, James thinks we should edit our episodes less and Duscher just wishes we could start predicting the events of Avengers: Infinity War. So take what we say with a grain of salt because in the end, it’s all just guesswork. But we do know one thing for certain; Captain America is gonna to shine bright like a bloody diamond, regardless of what Jeremy Renner says. Fuck off Hawkeye.Want to help fund an expedition to bring Hulk back from outer space where he is clearly going?

In which our heroes move from Gotham to Hell's Kitchen, request the services of Nelson and Murdoch, consulting the Avocados at Law to get their opinion on whether Daredevil is a better Batman than Batman. We look at exactly how much of a hassle the Joker is, wonder how being a superhero lawyer works morally and the logistics of Batman's sleep cycle. Zammit is scared of the Demon Bat that lurks beneath Gotham, James explains how Daredevil has the perfect secret identity and Duscher just lies about watching Ghostbusters again. It's Batman v Daredevil as we put both to the test and work out once and for all just who is the better bat and who is the better man.Want to help keep Matt Murdoch away from homelessness?

In which our heroes bid farewell to their time period, crash a plane into the snow, and slowly become encased in ice while wondering what the ramifications would be if we woke up sixty years in the future. We imagine horrifying future porn, the nature of lactic acid and Rove McManus’ quest for relevancy. Jackson wonders how meaningful Captain America’s relationship with Peggy actually was, James believes watching any of the Saw films would cause Steve Rogers to commit suicide, and Zammit just wishes people would stop viewing the past through rose tinted glasses. So wave goodbye to your loved ones, scream at the overwhelming lights of Times Square and try to cope with a future you are not part of. It’s almost as depressing as realising Hawkeye twerks better than you.Want to help us employ Christopher Lloyd for wacky time-travel based practical jokes?

In which our heroes get caught in a particle accelerator explosion, gain the power of speed and start putting other powered people in windowless boxes underground with the blessing of our cop dad and never once question any ethical dilemmas that might arise. We attempt to sue the Hulk, suggest meta humans should have their own system of law, and explore the bitchiness of the Justice League. Jackson points out that Flash's MO is the same as a Batman villain, Zammit could not deal with a solid 20 minutes in a box, and James proposes a virtual reality prison for meta humans. So ask your policeman daddy to give you carte blanche to kidnap people, tap into the speedforce, and decide who's box-worthy. The answer is usually anything that isn’t you.Want to help us find an ethical way to treat these superpowered criminals?

In which our heroes open up a competing paranormal extermination business, buy some second hand proton packs and immediately cross the streams while wondering what New York did with all the ghosts before the Ghostbusters turned up? We discuss the transit responsibilities of Slimer, the government’s role in preventing possibly apocalypses, and the very real danger of warlocks. Jackson's not sure ghosts are a problem, Zammit is worried for his immortal soul, and Duscher just recently watched the film. So join the gang as they struggle to protect the world from something that might not even be a threat. Who you gonna call? Not the Ghostbusters. They have no kind of academic credibility.Want to help us stop the next generation of Ghostbusters meddling with the natural progression of life and death?

In which our heroes open the fridge, consider exercise, and decide teleportation is much easier. We discuss Joel Duscher’s patented Mutant Bird Theory, the X-Mansion patented Food-Ball, and how unlike a school Xavier's School for Gifted Students really is. Jackson can't imagine Scott Summers stopping in for a sneaky Maccas run, Zammit discovers he smoked cigarettes wrong, and Duscher decides to educate the gang on the nature of antibiotics. So turn the Danger Room into a gym, pluck an apple from Xavier’s orchard, and try not to turn your mutant powers into a crutch. It’s time to save the world and there’s no short cuts when the stakes are this high.Want to help Xavier cut down on his food bill?

In which our heroes become scientists, blast a spider with radiation, and instantly move on. We discuss the eternal stupidity of comic books, the travesty that is the Amazing Spiderman franchise, and the tragedy of an intelligent Rhino. Jackson would rather not be put on the S.Q.U.I.D Project, Zammit expresses his issues with Symbiotes, Mr Sunday Movies wonders why the military already had a goblin mask, and Duscher just wants Tobey Maguire to come back. So chuck on your lab coat, choose an animal at random then forget about it and become super negligent. It's an amazing, sensational, superior, web of kind of time.Want to help restart the Spidermen program?

In which our heroes get hooked on a feeling, get high on believing and try to figure out the identity of Peter Quill’s father. We look at the potential of DCs Hawkman swinging by, the rather selective colour palette of Marvel’s aliens and whether or not Mama Quill banged a bird. Jackson doesn't know enough about the Marvel Universe to make a reasonable guess, Zammit uses his extensive knowledge to make a couple of possible candidates but ruins it all by making a planet sized error, and Duscher inevitably suggests the only man right for the job. So gather your team of mismatched antiheroes, hold onto an infinity gem for far too long, and try and do a something good. Or something bad. Really, it’s up to you, we’re not your father.Want to help Star Lord afford a paternity test?

In which our heroes succumb to the Dark Side, give into our anger and with each passing moment make ourselves more our master’s servant and almost immediately start plotting to overthrow him, which makes us wonder why do Siths even take apprentices. We discuss the Sith's lack of foresight, Anakin’s poor grasp of the English language, and Yoda's unfortunate swamp brain. Jackson needs all Star Wars explained through the Karate Kid, Zammit can't pronounce anything right, and Duscher just wishes he wasn't so sick. So join us as we decide to train up too many apprentices, go outside and check the force-tank, keep a weary eye on the outer rim and try not to get a lightsaber in our dicks.Want to help train the next generations of Sith?

In which our heroes stand next to a literal god, cower behind a green behemoth and get inspired by the embodiment of the best of humanity while wondering why is Hawkeye in the Avengers? We try to figure out S.H.I.E.L.D's hiring policies, discuss a comic book PSA about bullying, and get all flustered thinking about Captain America. Jackson attempts to put together an All Olympic Avengers Initiative, Zammit wants to see Hawkeye become the new Spider-Man, Mr Sunday Movies points out Hawkeye the ineffectiveness of bows as a weapon, and Duscher just feels that Clint should go back to being a pretty good athlete. So let's all get together in the S.H.I.E.L.D helicarrier, try to be sympathetic and fire Hawkeye in the nicest way possible.Want to help Clint win gold in the Rio Olympics?

In which our heroes get seduced by Dracula, go for a long walk by the swamp with the Gilman and enjoy a moonlit picnic with the Wolfman while we wonder which Hammer Movie Monster would make the best boyfriend. We discuss the issues with sleeping next to a man who is more hair than man and weigh up the pros and cons of having an undead boyfriend who's been around for a millennia or an undead boyfriend who lives in the last century. Jackson finds himself less and less attracted to Wolfman as the episode goes on, Zammit wants a man who can become bats, and Duscher just desperately tries to find something good about the Mummy. So join the lads on their European Summer of Monster Love, as they try to forget about their high school boyfriend Chad by dating their way through castles, swamps and pyramids to find the perfect man.Want to help fund our mythical meet ups?

In which our heroes take the monorail down to the seedy underbelly of Gotham, pay their respects at Crime Alley and watch Batman straight up clock a guy all the while wondering who exactly is the true hero of Gotham? Jackson derails the whole episode by stating that it’s the Penguin, Zammit encourages him and Duscher just doesn’t put up with any of his bullshit. We discuss: the hassle that would be working for the riddler, the definition of integrity, and Superman's evident disdain for Gotham. So strap a bomb to a penguin, stay away from the water supply and join the battle for Gotham supremacy as seen through the incredibly biased eyes of Jackson. Someone’s nose is gonna get bit off and it’s probably ours.Want to help fund Penguins retirement scheme?

In which our heroes gather our finances, register our ABN and completely ignore any and all tax obligations as we try and decipher which Disney Princess would be the best to open a business with. We wonder how quickly snowmen would ask for a Union, try and decide the price of hot fruit, and lead some poachers to the Pridelands. Jackson confuses a mother with a daughter, Zammit treats magic like a mutant power, and Duscher just wishes he could help out the Princess of Agrabah without it ending in a citywide manhunt. It's a magical, song filled, venture into the world of business, where finding your one true love comes a second to making profit for the year.Want to help with the initial start up?

In which our heroes sit down in the barbers chair, ask for braids and open an old copy of Journey into Mystery as we question how Thor gets his hair cut. We discuss Lex Luther’s hair envy, Ben Grim's little shorts and the all encompassing power of the Z-Men. Jackson gifts everyone with brilliant but irrelevant powers, Zammit is a fan of the sneaky mullet, and Duscher just wishes everyone would listen to his side-podcast: 'Naming Things.’ It’s an uncomfortable walk down the superhero runway as we all end up in bright lycra, fighting crime with our unmentionables clearly visible for all to see.Want to help us afford a pair of adamantium scissors?

In which our heroes turn on the Truman Show watch him awkwardly navigate through puberty, strain through his first haemorrhoid and mourn the fake death of his fake father all the while wondering how everyone is okay with this. We discuss the 50% chance of Truman wanting to Batman water, the secret Mole-People living under the Truman set, and the Media saturation implied by a TV show watched by the world. Jackson thinks he'd get bored and watch re-runs of Seinfeld instead, Zammit is in favour of Kristof introducing an actual boogie-monster, and Duscher believes masturbation is learned behaviour. We learn a lot about ourselves this episode, none of it good.Want to help Truman be true to himself and become a free man?

In which our heroes open up their toy box, regress to their early days and are filled with childlike wonder as they discuss the sentience level in Toy Story. We look at the existential moment toys realise what they are, whether or not falling over is learned behaviour and just how many seemingly inanimate objects are internally screaming. Jackson wonders how sex toys cope, Zammit worries for toys filled with cigarettes and Duscher just wants to keep asking questions. It's a harrowing journey from the assembly line to the attic, then to infinity and on to the beyond and/or a garbage incinerator.Want to help us buy even more toys to neglect?

In which our heroes line up, hold out their wrists, and let a bunch of Jedi check their blood as we ask why isn't midi-chlorian testing mandatory. We look at the dangers of mid-chlorian filled moss, the potential of Jedi blood transfusions and the seemingly unnecessary rules surrounding Sith numbers. Jackson discovers he has only seven midi-chlorians, Zammit is pretty sure the Jedi are a cult, and Duscher just wants to be the one to bring balance to the force. So join the gang as they traverse a galaxy far, far away and hope they don’t end up drinking Hutt blood. It's sentient, it’s all powerful and for some reason it lives in your bloodstream.
