Gundog (Replay) ** Previously Aired ** Star Wars: Rogue One Screenwriter, author, and the inventor of the Batcomputer at Home kit, Gary Whitta, joins us this week to discuss his new book, Gundog. (Amazon link - https://amzn.to/3Zy85PS) We also discussed his work on the screenwriting of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and the Book of Eli, not to mention his very popular YouTube show, Animal Talking, which came out during COVID-19. It was based on the popular game Animal Crossing at the time. We joke with Gary about his home computer setup, which resembles Batman's Batcave starter kit. It's a pretty sweet setup, and we are just mostly jealous. We will survive... maybe.

BATMAN: The Animated Series Robin's Reckoning Part 1 During a fight with some gangsters at a construction yard, Batman and Robin learn the name of their boss: Billy Marin. While Robin looks forward to going up against Marin, Batman becomes distant, and after a falling out at the Batcave, Batman doesn't allow Robin to accompany him on the search for Marin. Robin investigates on the Batcomputer, and soon realizes that Billy Marin is not the boss' real name. Rather, it is an alias of Tony Zucco, the man who killed his parents (which Batman already knew, but chose not to tell Robin). Robin's Reckoning Part 2 Angered by Batman's deceit, Robin sets out to find Tony Zucco on his own, all the while plagued by the memories of his parents' death and how Bruce took him in as his own son. Eventually, Batman manages to find Zucco at an old amusement park, but breaks his leg during the fight. Robin finally arrives and prepares to kill Zucco in revenge. Night of the Ninja A mysterious ninja is robbing Wayne Enterprises subsidiaries, and Batman discovers that the ninja is actually his equal in combat. A grudge against Bruce Wayne and skills to match him can only mean one person: Kyodai Ken, an old rival of Wayne's teacher from his days in Japan, and who was thrown out of the dojo after attempting to rob it, only to be stopped by Wayne. Ken, it turns out, wants revenge. Cat Scratch Fever Batman must stop Roland Daggett's plan to release a viral plague designed by Professor Milo into Gotham by way of its stray cat population. The case gains new urgency when Catwoman becomes infected with the virus during her search for her missing cat, Isis. Now, Batman must find an antidote to save the woman who loves him most.

A group of super villains have set a doomsday device to go off in one hour and the superheroes must find it before it's too late. John and writer Jim Beard and filmmaker Robert Long are in the Batcave this Christmas Day and discussing the two episode series of specials featuring Adam West, Burt Ward and Frank Gorshin reprising their classic Batman 66 roles. The first episode is an actual story, of sorts. The second episode is a roast. Seriously, it's a roast of the heroes by the villains. In this episode, we look at the casting of heroes for this team, the lack of real action, and the range of Frank Gorshin. It's all here and we want to hear what you think.

There's arguably no superhero in existence that has been reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman. No matter how many times he's been rebooted, audiences are always willing to come back to Gotham City's greatest defender. With so much Bat content out there, there's plenty to dissect, analyze, and of course, rank! This podcast is dedicated to a surgical evaluation of Batman's history, with a focus on ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other classic Bat themes and characters. Join host Daniel Cohen, Pop Break's former Film Editor and Resident Bat-Maven, as he brings on several guests every month to share his passion for the one and only Dark Knight. From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left unturned. Bottom-line: If you're a Batman fan, this is required listening. This month, the Bat Crew takes a break from rankings as they fire up the oversized Bat Computer and look ahead to what's in store for Batman, covering all the big news of the summer. Daniel is joined once again by Editor-in-Chief Bill Bodkin and Podcasts Editor Alex Marcus, as they give their opinions and hot takes on all the Bat happenings, including the unprecedented cancellation of the Batgirl movie, which sent Bane sized shockwaves throughout the internet. They also dive into the long and winding road that has been The Flash movie, Ben Affleck's apparent return in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, and the official confirmation of a sequel to this year's The Batman. The crew also digest the announced Joker sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux, which sees not only the return of Joaquin Phoenix, but catapults Lady Gaga into the franchise. Also, there may, or may not be an argument or two about the first Joker movie as well. If you want an efficient, streamlined catch up of what's going on in the world of Batman, look no further! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The Adventures of Superman Batman's Great Mystery Batman is not acting like himself. He's showing up at anti-American meetings and encouraging people to support the Germans in World War II. Robin and Superman team up to find out what is going on. Sounds like the makings of a great story, but is it? John and writer Jim Beard are back in the Batcave as we're wrapping up our look at the 1943 serial as and taking a break between the movie serials of the 1940s by looking at one of the multiple appearances of Batman and Robin on the Superman radio show. The thing is, who is this man they call Batman? Jim has a lot of issues with this rendition he feels makes the 43 Batman look legit. It's so bad, we spend as much time talking about Superman as we do Batman. Plus, we briefly discuss the Batman Mystery Club pilot radio show. It's all here and we want to hear what you think.

Everyone knows about the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but it's time we gave the DC Animated Universe some love. "Batman: Mask of the Phantasm" marked the first time DC put an animated feature into theaters, and it changed the way we'd see Batman on screen for years to come. This 1993 release was loosely based on the graphic novel "Batman: Year One" and trade paperback "Batman: Year Two," so it had Gene's attention. And Big D watched a lot of "The Animated Series" while stoned in college. Needless to say, the Shat Crew was excited to visit a Gotham City envisioned by Bruce Timm and voiced by Mark Hamill, Kevin Conroy, Dana Delany, Stacy Keach, and Abe Vigoda. In this episode, Gene and Big D cover lawn sex, Batman's detective roots, what a weak villain The Phantasm was, a weird romance, bad boy billionaires, the real motivation behind Bruce Wayne dressing as Batman, Alfred's horrid lot in life, the secret intelligence behind the Batcomputer, and flashbacks ... so many flashbacks.

Batman lets his emotions pour out of him day after day. He tells his Batcomputer diary program all that he feels. He is... not doing well. Written and Performed by Bo Segrest Originally published on the Premise Podcast
We have a packed episode this week!Alfonso & Joe, take on Mobile Gaming! With the rise of new titles like League of Legends: Wild Rift, Pokemon GO, & Call of Duty, our hosts discuss if mobile gaming can compete with consoles & PC's at the competitive level!DC Fandome 2021 had enough info to keep the Batcomputer running for months! We break down some of the biggest sneak peeks and trailers, from the event. Nintendo has raised its online pricing model, but are the perks worth it? With N64 and Sega Genesis multiplayer on the way, our duo debates if nostalgia for the past, will produce a quality experience for Nintendo Online's future.Finally, We tackle Metroid Dread and the Nintendo OLED Switch, with our first review! We go in-depth to see, if the wait was finally worth it!Listener Questions, Viewer insights, & More as we discover:What's Your Status?!
It's Fall now. I don't care what you say. We had the sneak preview, and now it's here, so chug a bunch of Claritin and get your carving kit out because some horny teens just moved in next door and you've got to stop them. While you're carefully hanging up the dead bodies in order to scare the virgin last girl, think about what went wrong in your life that got you here. Was it being drowned in a lake for being ugly? Was it dying in a fiery blaze because you like to touch kids? Or maybe because you're a magical midget that likes mayhem? Perhaps it was even one of these:- True Crime Internet Detectives- Not Enough Beer- The Man Behind The Wizard- Third Party Support SitesEvery now and then a 'girl next door' young blonde woman from Ohio pisses her boyfriend off enough or catches the attention of a crazed lunatic and for weeks all the news can talk about is the search for her. And with the rise of the internet, some people have started to take on the case themselves! Searching through social media and making a timeline of her movements in the lamest form of vigilante justice possible. Do they ever find the guy and go beat his ass? No. They find the wrong guy and get him arrested at work. But you know who could actually find all these missing white women? Batman. Not himself of course, I'm sure if Batman was real, he'd just have the Batcomputer solving all these cases in a minimized tab while he trolls through the local orphanage for his next Robin.Outdoor festivals, what are they? They're cordoned off public areas that it's okay to get drunk in! Do you think its okay to run out of beer at one of these 2/3rd of the way through the day? What if you went to Six Flags and they stopped half the rides at 2 PM? You'd be pissed! Are there a dozen other things to do or see there? Yeah, but we all know what you're there for. What if all the rides were at the very back of the park and not spread throughout? That's just more poor planning. And it's not like this is the first time! You'd think they could fix this and make it better and more efficient year after year, but what do I know.When you create a character or persona, it's important not to break the illusion. It's why when you go see a play and Hamlet stabs someone he doesn't stop, turn to the audience and say "Don't worry folks, I didn't really stab him, we're actors and this sword is a fake!" It's why kids cry when the guy in the Mickey Mouse costume pulls off his giant head. They don't care about the park employee, they want pure, unadulterated Mouse. Similarly, I don't need to know that you're depressed, or you want me to donate to a GoFundMe for your sick cousin, or even that you're on vacation so you won't be active for the next 2 weeks. You post dumb fake movie quotes, you're not a public servant.You know that feeling you get when you go to a restaurant and the service is above and beyond your expectations? Or when the guy at the store you're at actually cares about what he sells and can give you great advice? That's great customer service. Unfortunately it's the 0.01% of all customer service experiences. More and more companies are moving support to third party services that handle 150 other companies already with a phone farm in Mumbai. "Josh" from SupportCo doesn't know and doesn't care about your very specific use case of a very expensive piece of equipment, he just wants his $1.25 an hour.All this and more on this week's episode!

We're talking about the revolutionary Tim Burton blockbuster that went on to shape the superhero movies that dominate the box office more than three decades later. We fire up the Batcomputer and analyze it all: the iconic Prince soundtrack, the controversial casting of Michael Keaton - largely known at the time as a comedic actor - as the Dark Knight, and Burton's "killer" take on the character.

Riddle me this? What do Morgan Freeman from Lean on Me, Mr. Bates from Downton Abbey and almost eight decades of fictional history have in common? Well, the answer is “Batman”, of course, but that doesn’t mean you ought to be shoving Spaghetti into any (“Bat”) Computer in the name of detective work.

It was a whirlwind three days as John and Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension jetted out to LA for the Batman 66 experience of a lifetime. And the two meet up in the Batcave to talk about the experiences they shared, from seeing Burt Ward getting a hot dog named after him to visiting Adam West's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, to visiting Bronson Canyon and seeing the Batcave entrance, to getting a chance to tour Barris Kustom Industries (where the Batobile was developed and built), to touring the Warner Brothers lot (where Gotham City Police Headquarters still stands) to spending an evening with Bat-Fans and Bat-Celebrities alike at the opening of the Hollywood Museum Batman 66 exhibit.

Throughout the run of the podcast, we have often commented on the various locations used in the show and joked about how fora New York-like locale, Gotham City looked a lot like California. John decided to bring together two fans who have made an extensive study of the locations of the series to have a talk. They discuss the confusion some have over the locations at the Warner, Fox and Culver City lot, the fact that the front and rear of police headquarters are two different locations, and what locations a Bat-fan can visit today without causing any legal problems.

"Ben Bentley is an internationally published music photographer and Bat-Fan based in the United Kingdom. When Ben isn't behind the camera, you can find him sharing his lifelong love of Adam West's TV Batman as a co-moderator over at the 1966 Batman Message Board (66batman.com). Having traveled to California several times to attend conventions and hang out with Bat-friends, Ben has been lucky enough to try on one of Adam's original screen worn Cowls, meet several surviving cast members from the show and even run up and down the steps of Gotham City Police Headquarters in his own Adam West Batsuit. You can keep up to date with Ben's photographic work over on his blog... http://www.benbentleyphoto.tumblr.com or why not come and join Scott, Ben and the gang at the internet's longest standing 1966 TV Batman message board... http://www.66batman.com" I'm originally from a place called Bradenton in Florida. I lived there until I turned twenty three and decided to move out to Southern California to pursue my musical ambitions. Musical ambitions? Yeah, I was one of those long haired rockers back in the eighties and into the nineties. The hair mutinied and decided to abandoned ship bit by bit as did the ambitions of being a rock star. I still dabble when the creative kick in the head won't leave me alone. But, I'm not subscribing to Billboard to find out what's the latest thing or hocking the furniture to buy the latest gear. I am a freelance multimedia artist. Graphic design, web-mastering, audio engineering, video editing, photography, photo retouch or whatever seems to blur the lines of such things is what I do. Heck, even acting is in the mix. Prior to this,I spent years in various careers such as a full time recording engineer running tape machines (remember those?) and making albums (remember those?). Eventually I took a stab at the nine to five with benefits world of music instrument retail and did that for well over a decade. Won awards and stuff too while I was at it but quite honestly I was pretty miserable most of the time. I've learned so much at all my jobs. From mixing paint to cutting produce, the experiences and people along the way have taught me much. Why a blog? Quite a few years ago, I started a website about the 1966 Batman television series starring Adam West at batfriend.com. Very soon after starting the site, I started to experience all kinds of adventures in the wonderful world of Batfandom. As I wrote about it online, the reaction and feedback prompted me to share more and more about it. The experiences were numerous and the adventures took me across the country many times as various people from all over the world wide web started to become close friends and colleagues in my real life. So the question still exists. Why a blog now? Through my experiences, many other things happen or come to mind that don't really fit simply in the Batman world. Batman isn't my life. It's just one of the fun parts of it. So, I'm finally gathering together the many different facets of my thoughts, experiences, and some here and there nonsense to share with those who might enjoy it. Batman's still there punching away. Music is still there banging around in my head. But, there is even more. I've said it before. The journey is everything. And if it's a good journey, it's best shared. Fortunately, I'm incredibly lucky to share so many of them with my wife, love of my life and soulmate, Vickie. She really is the girl of my dreams. As of this writing, we've been married for over twenty years. She's my best friend. It's a fun life and I'm not done yet!

Last year's The Return of the Caped Crusader proved so popular, it only made sense that a sequel would be developed. And how does one raise the stakes for a sequel? You bring in the legendary William Shatner to voice a villain many fans hoped to see in the original run of the 66 series - Two-Face. As we did last year, we're bringing you a series of interviews that were conducted at a press junket for the new movie, Batman Vs. Two-Face, at New York Comic Con 2017. Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension got to sit right next to Shatner and he was generous with his time in discussing the movie, how he approached the role, and the fascination of discussing the dual nature of man.

A big thank you to all who downloaded and commented on The All-Star Adam West Tribute. It was a labor of love for John to put together and he's glad to see that it helped many who are coping with the passing of our Caped Crusader. In the rush to get it out though, John missed placing one of the contributions into the episode. He presents it here with his humblest apologies to illustrator Al Bigley (who was cool about it, but John wasn't having anyone who contributed miss out.). Here now is Al's thoughts on the passing of Adam West and his memories of meeting the man himself. Award-winning illustrator Al Bigley has been working as an in-demand commercial artist since 1990, providing artwork to such clients as: Golden Books, DC Comics, CTW, Disney, Marvel Comics, Saban, Film Roman, Scholastic, McDonald's, Kenner Toys, and many more.

Adam West's passing has proven to be an even larger blow to the Batman 66 community than ever imagined. Here on the podcast, we've received numerous requests to join in on the first tribute episode we presented last week.

"The Beat of the Bat" is a full-length documentary that tells the story of the music of the 1966 "Batman" Television Series and how composers Neal Hefti, Nelson Riddle & Billy May gave Batman his first real musical identity- and one that has remained inexorably tied to the character for over 50 years! In fact, if you saw the just released "Lego Batman Movie" you might have noticed the numerous references to the music of the TV series. And face it, you can go up to anyone, anywhere in the world and sing "Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na!" and they will instantly know what you are talking about! The music was as important to the show as the bright colors, campy dialogue and tongue-in-cheek performances. Yet, strangely, the story of how it came to be has never been told... Until now. John is joined by the director of the documentary, The Beat of the Bat, Pat Evans to discuss the importance of the project and the Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds needed to make it a reality. Any comments or questions on this episode, please post them here or by writing thebatcavepodcast@gmail.com. The first album Pat Evans ever owned was Neil Hefti's "Batman Theme & 11 Hefti Bat Songs", which sparked his lifelong love of Bat-Music. "The Beat of the Bat" is Pat's way of giving back to the talented composers and musicians who created that music. A talented Graphic Artist, Pat's works has been featured in The Hollywood Reporter and the late, lamented Defamer. Since 2012 Pat has worked as a casting coordinator on many large studio films including "Jason Bourne", "Straight Outta Compton" and "Steve Jobs". "The Beat of the Bat" marks his directorial debut.

We take a look at another William Dozier pilot for another comic related property. This time, it's Dick Tracy - He's a Good Cop. This time though, Dozier went all out with a full length half-hour episode featuring Victor Buono as the villain, Mr. Memory - which starts the batter of questions about where this show was going. In "The Plot to Kill NATO", Mr. Memory kidnaps three NATO ambassadors at the request of Major Powers. His method of operation seems interesting enough, but there is still something lacking in his character. And yet, despite this, the pilot is an enjoyable viewing experience with a lot of recommend including Jan Shulman as Liz and the well choreographed fight scenes. John is joined by his The Hornet's Sting co-host, Jim Beard, to pitch these questions. Just how committed was Dozier to this property? What would a relationship with Chester Gould have been like had the show gone forward? Why wasn't one of the established villains used in the pilot? And why did Dozier still build in little nods to Batman and The Green Hornet when both shows were on their last legs? Any comments or questions on this episode, please post them here or by writing thebatcavepodcast@gmail.com.

We move into the post-review era with the first in a series of episodes looking at the Batman related works of the producers and stars of the show and at the pop culture influences from the series. First up, a look at William Dozier's attempt at adapting another DC property - Wonder Woman. In this curious short, "Wonder Woman: Who's Afraid of Diana Prince?" we are only given a taste of the potential of the series. Which begs the question, why wasn't a full pilot produced, especially in light of the fact that a full script was commissioned, co-written by Batman scribe Stanley Ralph Ross? This question and possibly a few more will be asked by John and his guest, Chris Franklin of the Super Mates Podcast. Any comments or questions on this episode, please post them here or by writing thebatcavepodcast@gmail.com. Chris Franklin is a mild-mannered graphic designer by day, but at night, he retreats to his secret headquarters festooned with action figures, and podcasts with his long-suffering wife Cindy on the Super Mates podcast, a proud part of The Fire and Water Podcast Network. Together they take a look at all things geeky, such as comics, TV, movies, and toys, from a couple's perspective.
It's the end of the third season and John takes one last look before moving on to the next phase of the podcast. With the help of his listeners who have commented along the way via email and the Facebook page, John comes to a final conclusion about the third season. Plus, he reveals the plans for the podcast in 2017. Take a listen and don't forget, as John says on the podcast, if you are listening via iTunes, please take a moment to leave a review. Here's the link to the Batgirl Bat-Trap Page that John mentioned in this episode and that has been referred to throughout the third season reviews.

Take a listen to find out what it is and Adam's response. Any comments or questions on this episode, please post them here or by writing thebatcavepodcast@gmail.com.
John is joined by Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension to celebrate the birthday of Adam West. In our tribute, we discuss Adam's style of acting when it came to pre and post-Batman series. We look some of his best moments on Batman and also discuss other roles outside the series. John enthuses on Lookwell, a pilot Adam starred that should have gone to series. Finally, they discuss his resurrection today as a pop-culture icon and how that has paved the way for the interest in the Batman series on its 50th anniversary.
He's one half of the Dynamic Duo. He's known as the Boy Wonder. In addition, he's also the Canine Crusader. Burt Ward join John and Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension in the Batcave to discuss his time as Robin, his love for dogs and the steps he's gone to rescue as many canines as possible, and the upcoming The Return of the Caped Crusaders direct to DVD animated feature. Gentle Giants Rescue and Adoptions is the largest giant breed dog rescue in the world. Located on a sprawling estate just one hour east of Los Angeles in Riverside County, California, Gentle Giants Rescue and Adoptions, Inc. is a California non-profit 501(c)(3) public benefit corporation, and is the charity of Burt and Tracy Ward. Burt, who gained fame as the Batman's sidekick “Robin, the Boy Wonder” in the 1960's television series and in subsequent film and television roles, has built a luxurious home for the more than 14,600 Gentle Giants and Little Giants that he and Tracy have rescued and adopted during the last 19 years. There is always a wide selection of Gentle Giants, including Great Danes, Borzoi, English Mastiffs, Greyhounds,Irish Wolfhound combinations, Neopolitan Mastiffs, Fila Brasileiro, Bullmastiffs, Spanish Mastiffs, American Mastiffs, Adronicus Mastiffs, South African Boerboel Mastiffs, Dogue de Bordeaux French Mastiffs, Saint Bernards, Great Pyrenees, Newfoundlands, Sasquatch, Leonbergers and other Large Lap Dogs as well as many Little Giant breeds, including Whippets, Silken Windhounds, Italian Greyhounds, Peruvian Inca Orchid, Xoloitzcuintle, Shelties, and Chinese Crested available for adoption at Gentle Giants Rescue and Adoptions. The population of these Gentle Giants and Little Giants constantly changes each day as more are adopted and more are rescued from shelters and arrive from homes where their owners can no longer keep them, usually because of hardship or drastic changes in their lives due to divorce, illness, bankruptcy, job moves, military duty, etc. These dogs are incredibly beautiful and perfect family members who have been dearly loved, but now are in need of qualified new homes where they will again be loved, cherished and safe. Burt and Tracy always have a large number of Gentle Giants and Little Giants of every size, age, color, and personality available for adoption. There are too many Gentle Giant and Little Giant breeds at Gentle Giants Rescue and Adoptions to be listed individually. At any given time, there may be puppies available, but there is always a variety of youthful and mature Gentle Giants and Little Giants, male and female, in every official and unofficial color. If you are interested in adopting a Gentle Giant or a Little Giant, please complete our Online Adoption Application at the following link: "Adoption Information and Application." We will review your application and respond to you usually within 48 hours to discuss your application and to set up your appointment to adopt.
John takes a moment to discuss the trailer for the upcoming Return of the Caped Crusaders direct to DVD animated feature. Based on what he's seen and heard, he's hopeful this is going to be a good one. Take a listen and then offer your thoughts here or on our Facebook page or write us at thebatcavepodcast@gmail.com.
John is joined by Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension to celebrate the birthday of Burt Ward. While there are disputes over who is the best Batman, the best Alfred, even the best Commissioner Gordon, there is no disputing the definitive Dick Grayson/Robin is Burt Ward. John and Dan discuss how that magic begin right from the beginning with Burt's audition. They talk about what made him stand out, in particular his sense of timing when it came to humor. Finally, they discuss Burt's legacy as we are in the middle of the 50th anniversary of the Batman series.
John is joined by Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension to talk with comic artist Michael Allred. Allred recently completed his run as cover artist for the Batman 66 comic series. In this interview, he discusses how Batman and 60s television influenced his artistic endeavours, how he approached the assignment of cover artist, favorite cover assignments, and working with his family in the comics field. Take a listen and enjoy. Michael 'Doc' Allred grew up in the 60's and 70's and was surrounded with the best in pop culture and a steady diet of music, movies and comic books including the three B's: Beatles, Bond and Batman to the point of obsession. So it should come as no surprise that he keeps a hand in film and music (He's the lead singer and guitarist for The Gear), but comic books have always been a seminal source of joy for Mike and that joy remains the main ingredient in most of his work. Allred first tasted success in the comics field with his wildly popular MADMAN series, which is currently being developed for a live action film with filmmaker Robert Rodriguez. His earlier work from GRAFIK MUZIK was turned into the cult hit movie G-Men from Hell directed by Christopher Coppola (featuring Robert Goulet as the Devil). Other work includes Red Rocket 7, his history of Rock and Roll told in the context of a sci-fi adventure storyl the Madman spin-off THE ATOMICS and his magnum opus, THE GOLDEN PLATES, where he's illustrating the entire Book of Mormon. Mike counts the secret to his success to be his wife, and creative partner, Laura Allred, who is is considered to be one of the best colorists in the business.
John sits down with Deborah Dozier Potter, the daughter of Batman 66 executive producer William Dozier. They discuss his development of the series, the highs and lows, and his life after the series ended. In addition, they also talk about Deborah's life as an actress, a Hollywood agent, and an author. Finally, they talk about how Deborah overcame her Post Traumatic Stress Disorder thanks to the love of her dog, Buster, which led to her writing her book, Let Buster Lead. Deborah Dozier Potter is a performing arts enthusiast and patron. She was raised in a family of respected film, television and theatre professionals in New York City, Beverly Hills and Los Angeles. She worked as a stage and film actress before becoming an actors' agent then starting her own talent agency and management company. She has lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico, since 1979 and is an active partner in Hotel Santa Fe and Five & Dime general stores, a multi-state retail business. She authored the 2007 published memoir, Let Buster Lead, subtitled "my discovery of love, post-traumatic stress disorder and self-assurance". Ms. Potter is a volunteer faculty member of The New Mexico School for the Arts and a political, charity and arts supporter. Her husband, Earl Potter, is a prominent business owner and a retired attorney. Their son, H. C. “Cody” Potter, also lives in Santa Fe. Potter previously has served as a New Mexico representative to the President's Advisory Council on the Arts/Kennedy Center from 1993 until 2001 and from 2009 to the present.

To celebrate, we here at the Batcave Podcast welcome author James Bigwood who contributed to Alan Napier's autobiography, Not Just Batman's Butler. James talks about his experiences with Alan Napier, the writing of the book, and some of Napier's better roles.

(RIGHT CLICK THE IMAGE TO SAVE THIS EPISODE TO YOUR COMPUTER) Aired March 14/16, 1967 Hollywood legend Tallulah Bankhead gives her final performance as the menacing Black Widow. Her plot is so simple, even the Batcomputer can't work it out - robbing banks in Gotham in alphabetical order. As simple as the plot may seem, there is something very endearing about the episode, one that has remained a favorite of John's to this very day. He's joined in this discussion by Batman at 45 author Chris Gould. Comment on the episode here or write thebatcavepodcast@gmail.com Chris Gould was born in the UK in 1983, and has lived in Japan since 2008. His career so far has seen him work as a political researcher, local government officer, sports journalist, business English teacher, translator and magazine writer. Introduced to Batman re-runs as a child, Chris would watch the show as a junior high-schooler, university student and mid-career professional, his appreciation taking on new forms at every step. Convinced that Batman constitutes the definitive guide to mid-60s popular culture, and is therefore an invaluable source of study for future generations, Chris took to researching the show in detail, eventually producing the ebook: Batman at 45: The Ultimate Tribute to Pow, Bam and Zap! The aim of his research is to underline the point that no matter how many years have passed, Batman, through its sheer diversity of stars and insightful lines, helps us fully understand how we got to where we are today.

My father doesn't ask much of me... I mean yeah, he asked me to be a superhero... which is kind of a big "Son, could you do me a favor?", I admit... But apart from that he lets me be. He doesn't criticize how I dress, either. He doesn't judge. So he comes to me with something he needs doing... What can I say... "yeah, Dad, you want, you got," right? Except it's only then I learn what that something is... defend the city against a god Starman aka Jack Knight This is not the world that our heroes once knew and it all changed the day the solar flare happened and a mechanical army lead by Brainiac marched over humanity. Humans and metahumans have been hunted to near extinction but some fight back against the apocalypse in hopes of changing the fate of a world most consider dead. Our heroes stand poised to storm the stronghold of the evil Brainiac and his armies in the Lexcorp building in Metropolis but something is amiss. The Batcomputer says that a solution lies inside the fortress of Lexcorp but what is it? A mysterious experiment and a foe that no one expected all await our heroes. Can the war be won today or will the fall of mankind happen and it crushed under the mechanical boot of Brainiac. These are the days of future crisis.

Phantom Troublemaker and the ESO Network’s “Howdy” Mike Gordon convene to discuss a common favorite topic – the live-action Batman television show, now commonly colloquialized as Batman ’66. The recent release of the entire series as a deluxe Blu-ray box set prompted this episode. Both of the guys crammed in as much Bat-Viewing as they could to prepare for this look back at a critical point in not only the history of the Dynamic Duo, but at a very specific point in the development of television and American pop culture. Mike and Phantom talk about discovering the show during childhood and the evolution of their enjoyment of it as time has gone on. From the colorful sets and costumes to the actors that inhabited them, every aspect of the show is examined. Atomic batteries to power. Turbines to speed.

John and Dan Greenfield of the 13th Dimension website complete the week of special podcasts by putting together ten stories from Batman 1966 that should be included in any marathon viewing. As the DVD and Blu-Ray sets are about to come out and the holidays are approaching, maybe it's time to sit around the TV with the family and have some fun fighting crime with Batman and Robin. Dan Greenfield is the editor and co-creator of 13thDimension.com, a website devoted primarily to comics and pop culture, past and present. To him, the basic food groups are Batman, Planet of the Apes, Star Trek (the Original Series), James Bond, the Beatles and the Stones. But if he had to he'd be able to subsist on Batman alone. Channel 11 in New York was his favorite syndicated channel as a kid -- you can guess why -- followed closely by Channel 5. Channel 9 didn't really enter into it unless he was home sick and there wasn't much else on. He's married to his remarkably patient wife Wendy and his best sidekick is his son, Sam. They have two cats,Lex and Zod.
For day three of our week-long look at the Batman 1966 series, John and Dan Greenfield of the 13th Dimension website discuss the sometimes elaborate, sometimes more mundane cliffhangers and death-traps the Dynamic Duo faced each week in their war on crime.

Deutschlands erster Batman-Podcast ist da! Mit dem BatCast betreten wir neues Terrain und wagen damit ein kleines Fan-Experiment.

In der Premierenfolge besprechen die Batman-Forum Mitglieder ‚Jacy1267‘, ‚Riggo‘ und ‚Batcomputer‘ das Top-Thema „BATMAN v SUPERMAN: Dawn of Justice“. In den weiteren Episoden des monatlichen Podcasts wollen wir dann auf die News der letzten Tage und Wochen eingehen und uns zusätzlich einem größerem Thema widmen. Aller Anfang ist schwer und sicherlich auch noch nicht perfekt. So gehören kleinere technische Probleme und jungfräuliche Aufgeregtheit noch mit zur ersten Ausgabe des BatCasts. Doch das Team arbeitet daran, dies von Folge zu Folge zu verbessern. Und natürlich interessiert uns auch eure…Weiter...

After decades of reading, collecting and dissecting comics, Jim became a published writer when he sold a story to DC Comics in 2002. Since that time he's written official Star Wars and Ghostbusters comic stories and contributed articles and essays to several volumes of comic book history. His prose work includes GOTHAM CITY 14 MILES, a book of essays on the 1966 Batman TV series; SGT. JANUS, SPIRIT-BREAKER, a collection of pulp ghost stories featuring an Edwardian occult detective; MONSTER EARTH, a giant monster anthology; and CAPTAIN ACTION: RIDDLE OF THE GLOWING MEN, the first pulp prose novel based on the classic 1960s action figure. Currently, Jim provides regular content for Marvel.com, the official Marvel Comics website, and is a regular columnist for Toledo Free Press.

(RIGHT CLICK THE IMAGE TO SAVE THIS EPISODE TO YOUR COMPUTER) The Batcave Podcast has just completed its look at the first season of the 1966 Batman television series. Over the course of the first 17 episodes, the podcast has taken shape into something John hopes everyone enjoys. But there was a different format John considered before going ahead with the show you are listening to today. He tried out this format by sitting down with author Dayton Ward and the two recorded a commentary on the first episode of the series. Here is the first part, edited in its entirety for your listenening pleasure. Stay tuned, Batfans. Next week, we're looking at the 1966 theatrical release. TheRiddler has plans for Batman in the form of a lawsuit claiming false arrest, but Batman knows the Riddler is not as innocent as he seems. Can Batman deduce the Riddler's scheme from the puzzles he's hidden inside the lawsuit? Can he figure out that Robin isn't Robin? And can we find all the ideas that would be repeated throughout the series that first led to its success and would ultimately lead to its downfall? Comment on the episode here or write batcavepodcast@gmail.com. Dayton Ward is the author of numerous media tie-in fiction works in such realms as Star Trek and The 4400. He is also the author of such original works as Counterstrike, The Last World War, Book 2 and The Genesis Protocol. When he's not writing or working for a software design firm, he's busy indoctrinating his two lovely daughters into the worlds that have so seriously warped his mind.
The guys look over old notes and decide what to trash and what to implement into the skeleton of their script. Also, prank phone calls.
*announcer voice* THIS WEEK ON PROJECT BATMAN: Notes, notes notes! The team goes over previous ideas and connects them to one another like so many Legos.
