The Terrible Trio Review (w/ Isaac Robinson Smith)
Our hosts return to the podcave and are joined by special guest and friend Isaac Robinson-Smith — the voice of Bishop in X-Men '97 — to review the infamously bad episode, The Terrible Trio.This podcasting trio of hosts dives into the comic book origins of these three misfit villains, tracing their roots all the way back to the 1950s. They also tackle the big question: why is this episode so widely disliked? Is it the lack of a proper supervillain? The rookie animation team? Or something else entirely?Along the way, they break down Robin’s latest R-shaped throwing star, speculate on what Alfred says to himself in the mirror, and discuss the many wardrobe choices in Will’s favourite segment — FIT CHECK!Plus, the gang casts The Terrible Trio in their live-action fan-made universe, and Isaac shares what he's working on now, including a tease of X-Men '97 Season 2!Tip Jar: https://buymeacoffee.com/batmantaspodJoin Our Discord - https://discord.com/invite/bQF76V3nUsMobster Mash Kickstarter - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/mobster-mash-1-classic-movie-monsters-as-mobstersFollow us on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@batmantaspod?_t=8zn1yhsgnfz&_r=1Follow us on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@batmantaspodFollow the Pod on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/batmantaspod/Follow the Pod on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BatmanTASPod/Follow the Pod on Twitter - https://twitter.com/batmantaspod1Subscribe to Will's Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/willrobsonSpeech Comics Website - https://www.speechcomics.com/Will's WhatNot Page - https://www.whatnot.com/user/speechcomics

House & Garden Review
Our hosts return to the podcave, slip on their gardening gloves, and dive into the chilling episode, House & Garden.Alex and Will explore the dark horror elements of this episode, including some truly unsettling "plant babies." The disturbing thought of them transforming from son to husband in just a few days makes for some uncomfortable imagery—especially when you consider the implications of them sleeping with their... mom? YIKES! They also ponder some intriguing questions: How did Batman not know Poison Ivy was released from Arkham six months ago? When did she swap for her clone in this episode? And just how lame is it when Batman stalks Ivy in broad daylight? Plus, Alfred turns off the notifications on the bat-computer and plays some Mario Kart.

Avatar Review
Our hosts return to the podcave and are once again sent around the world on another Ra's adventure in the episode, AVATAR!

Highlighting the opening and ending sequences as classic horror scenes, as well as Peter Cushing now being an official character in the DCAU. Our hosts also wonder how Batman got home after being stranded in the desert with only a water flask. As well as discussing what Ra's got upto in WW2, the zombie Queen's belly dancing routine, and accidentally creating two new characters in BTAS -- Snot & Booger.

Sideshow Review
Our hosts return to the Podcave and then venture out into the woodlands to review the freakishly average episode, SIDESHOW. Alex and Will discuss the excellent animation in this episode and how the first act is a much better premise of a story, instead of reclusive freaks living out in the woods. And can you say freaks? Is this allowed?They also talk about how Richard being a Shakespeare nerd is the freakiest trait of all and discover they have limited Shakespeare knowledge. Plus, Killer Croc pitches the freaks on a new woodland wing shop venture and Batman brings a tree root back to display in the Batcave.
