How Does Dating Work in Beyoncé's Single Ladies? Apr 03, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes find a perfect partner, really connect on an emotional level, ruin it all by forgetting to put a ring on it while asking how does dating work in Beyoncé's Single Ladies. Join us as we discover the completely untouched fictional universe of pop music, misunderstand the implications of lyrics and just plow through all common sense to arrive at a surprisingly well thought out theory. Jackson is stressed about phallic imagery, Zammit just informs everyone to put your hand up and Duscher just gives up less than five minutes in. Strap yourself in because this episode takes a hard left turn and oh boy, I don't know how they got to this conclusion but I'm sure glad they did.Want to help fill our bumbags full of awesome diamond rings?

What are the Consequences of Inside Out? (Feat. Michael Williams) Mar 27, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes get inside your head, haphazardly press a few buttons and try to work out where Apathy went to while wondering what would be the consequences of Inside Out? We look at the complexity of the control panel, try and figure out how anti-depressants might work work and slam the puberty button to see what happens. Jackson is concerned about the effects of clumsiness, Zammit gets passionate over emotional programming and Michael gets sad when he remembers Bing Bong.

Show notes

In which our heroes brood with Batman, soar with Superman, and wonder with Wonder Woman as they discuss what they thought of Batman v Superman. We puzzle at the mysterious presence of mosquito men, try to figure out what everyones plan was, and feel sorry for Ma Kent. Adam and Zammit have a love affair with Batfleck, Jackson bemoans the big steamy shit they took on Wonder Woman, and Duscher just wants to go to sleep. So build yourself a heavy armour, go out of your way to steal a photo, and dive into a lake to collect a thing that will almost definitely kill you.

What Do We Think is Going to Happen in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice? (Feat. George Dima) Mar 22, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes crash land on planet earth, lose their parents to a mugger, and then decide to punch on as they speculate what’s gonna happen in Batman v Superman. We talk about every other superhero film instead, delve into the injustice fan theory that makes Man of Steel better and start our very own Civil War. Duscher defends Spider-Man 3, Zammit really wants a courtroom drama, George puts all the blame on David S. Goyer’s need to be seen as a rad guy and Jackson just wants it to be the Super Friends. So line up for the midnight screening, get comfy in your seats, let us know it you’re #TeamJoel or #TeamJoel and hope that this (probable) train wreck of a film never slows down.Want to help Metropolis recover from even more collateral damage?

Why Haven't We Done a Vs Episode LIVE?! Mar 20, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes climb onstage, shield their eyes against the lights, take a sip of their water and ask why haven't we done a versus episode live? We decide whether or not it's fair to play soccer against a cripple, learn about chess-boxing, and settle the coke-pepsi debate once and for all. Zoe takes issue with Batman calling himself Batman, Zammit wonders who a planet is trying to impress, Jackson absolutely destroys some mummies, and Duscher just wants to be the best weekend dad he can be. So gather round, place your bets, and listen in as the versus matches stop being about punch ons and start being about fatherhood. Want to help us do more live shows?

Are Mutants a Problem? Mar 13, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes look at statistics, analyse the figures and tally up the deaths as they ask are mutants really a problem? Join us as we really get to the bottom of the X-Men v Brotherhood fights, argue about the logistics of car insurance and ponder the fate of Mutant Town. Jackson tries to justify his horrific opinions, Zammit is worried about the health of the Blob and Duscher just wants to try his best but not succeed. It's a wild ride as two thirds of us try to remain open minded but good people while the other commits hate crimes. I'm still upset.Want to help Duscher and Zammit prevent Jackson from committing a genocide?

How Would You Survive the Game of Thrones? Mar 06, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes visit Westeros, take a leisurely walk upon yonder cliff and start plotting and scheming as we try to survive the Game of Thrones. We look at which bad choices get you killed (all of them), do our best to avoid incest and come to accept the inevitable betrayal of everyone we know. Jackson plays the long game, Zammit tries his best but he does not succeed and Duscher just does what he is told, no questions asked. So join the gang as they realise that maybe this isn’t a game where you win or die, but just die and the only solution is a heist for the ages.Want to help find the rightful heir to rule Westeros?

What Would You Do About the Mutant Problem? Feb 28, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes can’t ignore the elephant in the room, realise something has to be done so organise a 5-point plan on what to do with the mutant problem. We look at problems concerning the Phoenix Force, branch out to all powered citizens and work out our concerns of making several deals with several devils. Jackson has some radical opinions and ideas, Zammit wants a less monstrous approach and Duscher just wants to know how close Jackson is to Hitler. It’s a concerning proposal as we attempt to deal with the mutant problem while still remaining a shred of humanity.Want to help protest mutant registration?

Is Being a Werewolf a Hassle? (Feat. Michael Shanks) Feb 21, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes warn the villagers, lock themselves away and hide from the full moon as they wonder if being a werewolf is really that much of a hassle? We discuss the Ninja Turtles choice of attire, the problem of eugenics in a fantasy world, and what things are metaphors for other things. Jackson assumes he's the mayor, Zammit thinks its more of a blessing than a curse, and Michael just wants to make werewolf puns. So sync up with your werewolf brethren, get howling, and slowly take over the world because that is absolutely going to happen. That's just simple mathematics.Want to help us run the perfect grassroots political campaign?

Which 80s Horror Villain Would Make the Best Boyfriend? Feb 14, 2016

Show notes

In which our heroes get our match-making skills out, take turns on the Love Tester and write up a pros and cons list to determine which of the 80s horror villain would make the best boyfriend. We look at how these potential boyfriends would handle kids, who would be a good listener and the problems of entering into a relationship with a doll who has the soul of a serial killer, his doll wife and their ready-made doll family. Jackson thinks Michael Myers is a fixer-upper, Zammit can’t get past facial deformities and Duscher has a traumatic camp story to bond with Jason. It’s a formula for love compatibility as we rank your favourite villains. Want to help villains find love too?
