Podcasts about Gotham

Jace and Rocky break down all 13 DC releases for the week of September 2, 2026. Batgirl #23 finds Cassandra Cain racing through a Gotham overrun by the Parliament of Trees while badly injured herself, determined to get a poisoned girl to the antidote that can save her life. Rather than advancing the larger Bad Seeds plot, the tie-in keeps the focus on Cassandra and her supporting cast, making the event feel more like the backdrop for a Batgirl story than an interruption of one. Batman #13 has Batman fighting his way through the GCPD to confront Vandal Savage, but the detour into Bad Seeds largely puts Matt Fraction's ongoing Batman story on hold. There are entertaining moments of Batman tearing through corrupt officers and demanding they do better for Gotham, but very little actually happens and the momentum from the previous issue's mystery is left waiting for the crossover to get out of the way. JSA #23 jumps into the largely unexplored years after the Justice Society was forced out of public life, with Wildcat, Hourman and Doctor Mid-Nite recruited for a secret Cold War mission behind enemy lines. The period setting and espionage premise immediately feel like a natural fit for the JSA, delivering one of the strongest issues of the run just as the series is approaching its end. 100 Bullets: The U.S. of Anger #3 remains frustratingly difficult to decipher three issues in, even for Rocky as a reader of the original 100 Bullets. The anger and division suggested by the title are certainly present, and the two hate-spewing podcasters provide one of the issue's more recognizable ideas, but neither Jace nor Rocky can determine what Brian Azzarello ultimately wants the story to say. Absolute Green Lantern #18 sees Simon Baz and Agent Zero finally escape the strange space where they have both been trapped and emerge in front of Cameron Chase, who appears to know exactly what has been happening. After eighteen issues of deliberately opaque mythology surrounding the Absolute Spectrum, Manhunters and its different colors and concepts, Chase's promise that "now we get the answers" offers the clearest indication yet that the series may finally start bringing its mysteries together. Absolute Superman #23 brings Superman's relentless pursuit of Brainiac into conflict with Toyman and forces his absolute belief in the sanctity of life into one of its most difficult tests yet. Jason Aaron continues pushing a young Superman who believes he must save absolutely everyone, suggesting that his refusal to accept his own limitations may eventually become as dangerous to him as any villain he faces. Batman/Superman: World's Finest — World's Weirdest #1 pulls Batman and Superman into the wonderfully bizarre world of Weird Al Yankovic in a whimsical story built around a surprisingly sincere message: be yourself, be true to yourself and embrace whatever makes you weird. It's far more fantastical than the type of story Jace usually gravitates toward, but the humor, artwork and genuine Weird Al sensibility make the concept work. Legion of Super-Heroes #1 begins with R.J. Brande's dream of bringing young heroes from across the galaxy together surviving his apparent murder as Brainiac 5 and Matter-Eater Lad investigate what happened to him. Joshua Williamson and Hayden Sherman reinvent the Legion from the ground up while retaining recognizable pieces of its history, including Lightning Lad's love of ancient Superboy comics, and use the mystery surrounding Brande to begin bringing this new generation together. Supergirl: Survived #4 has Kara and a young Kal-El spending much of the issue discovering what their Kryptonian powers can do beneath a yellow sun before encountering Brainiac 5, who may provide the means to finally continue their journey toward Earth. The story is heavily decompressed, but the relationship between Kara and Kal remains its strength while the increasingly unexpected assortment of DC concepts continues giving the series its own identity. Teen Titans #1 finds Jason Todd's search for a child missing for nine days colliding with a group of young heroes conducting their own investigation into their missing friend. Proximity, Fair Play, Cheshire Cat, Wild Card and Eugene Choi aren't actually a superhero team yet—the name Teen Titans began as little more than their online group chat—but their unlikely connection with Jason creates a distinctly modern starting point for Kyle Higgins' new take on the concept. Deadman #4 sends Boston Brand toward Heaven demanding answers about why the souls he has been helping aren't necessarily destined to stay there, only to receive an unexpected lesson about the value of giving someone even a brief moment of hope. The idea gives Deadman a renewed sense of purpose, but neither Jace nor Rocky feels the philosophical detour has enough to say to justify how far the series has moved from the character they know. Doom Patrol #1 introduces a broke Doom Patrol wandering from place to place taking whatever work they can get, including a seemingly mundane job searching for a missing cat. The bizarre visuals certainly fit the team's reputation for weirdness, but the story offers little sense of direction or connection to the previous Doom Patrol run, leaving both Jace and Rocky disappointed by an opening issue that feels far less interesting than its characters should be. Finally, Superman: The Stranger #1 drops Superman into a Black Label world reminiscent of Depression-era America, delivering a visually striking reinterpretation whose gritty setting immediately distinguishes it from the main DC Universe. The artwork is the issue's greatest strength, while the story itself feels familiar enough that Jace is waiting to see whether Wes Craig can push the concept somewhere more original as the series develops. Jace and Rocky also cover this week's collected editions before ranking all 13 books and revealing their Books of the Week.

While Lexington and Concord claim significance as the sites of the American Revolution's opening battles, New York City's geography, population density, and cultural status made it one of the most important theaters of the war. Between 1776 and 1777, numerous battles were fought for control over the Port of New York, including the Battles of Harlem Heights, Pell's Point, White Plains, Fort Washington, and the largest battle of the entire revolution, the Battle of Long Island/Brooklyn. Recognizing the strategic importance of New York, and forewarned by his experience at the Battle of Bunker Hill in Boston, Lieutenant-General Sir William Howe and royal governor Lord George Germain recruited Hessian mercenaries and soldiers from across the empire to defend the city from an eventual patriot campaign to claim New York. In 1776, George Washington, as commander-in-chief of the Continental Army, began preparations for what we know today as the New York and New Jersey Campaign. Though the campaign failed to fortify New York from Sir William Howe, which remained in British control until the end of the war in 1783, the revolution might have ended altogether on Staten Island when William and his brother, Admiral Richard Howe, entered peace negotiations with the Americans. In a September 11, 1776, meeting, the Howes met with John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and Edward Rutledge for an unsuccessful three-hour negotiation. Four days later, Howe, as Commander-in-Chief of British Land Forces in America, landed 12,000 troops in lower Manhattan and quickly claimed the city. Though the British took control of New York Harbor and the surrounding agricultural areas, the areas around New York and New Jersey remained active battlegrounds for the rest of the revolution. When the war ended, it saw some of the last British soldiers evacuate the new United States, including thousands of free and formerly enslaved Africans who had served the empire in the war, documented by The Book of Negroes. Battle in the Margins is a special project of the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation in collaboration with Black Gotham Experience, an organization devoted to African Diasporic storytelling, to commemorate the African Diaspora's impact on the American Revolution. Those listening to this episode in real time in the New York City area can reserve a ticket to the September 19, 2026 Battle in the Margins “Main Event,” a series of original ten-minute plays centering the African Diaspora's experience, resistance, and role in shaping early American history, shining a light on stories often left out of the nation's founding narrative. The Battle in the Margins Research Brief is available here. Kamau Ware is a multidisciplinary artist, historian, and walker. Kamau was born and raised in Pittsburgh, where he founded an artist collective called BridgeSpotters in 1996 that took inspiration from the many bridges in the city as analogous to many disciplines making a creative project. Ware moved to New York City in 2006 and applied his work as an artist and curator to develop a unique approach to visual storytelling, coined StoryStyle that softens the threshold between artist and audience. After establishing his visual storytelling lab, Kamau Studios in 2008, he began working on what would become the Studios flagship project – the Black Gotham Experience (BGX). BGX launched the summer of 2010 as a series of walking tours and has expanded to a series of immersive experiences celebrating the impact of the African Diaspora on New York City.

It's another SDH Week in Review, bringing together some of the best conversations from SDH AM. Charlotte FC play-by-play voice Will Palaszczuk joins Jon Nelson for opposition research ahead of Atlanta United's matchup with Charlotte, breaking down Pep Biel, Allan Saint-Maximin, Charlotte's young forwards and what to expect at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Lori Lindsey checks in during a busy weekend covering both the NWSL and MLS, with thoughts on Gotham, Portland, Philadelphia and the Red Bulls. She also reflects on what she has learned from longtime broadcast partner JP Dellacamera. Then, MLS legend Kai Kamara joins the show to discuss life on the other side of the microphone. Kamara talks about joining the MLS 360 crew, learning the rhythms of studio television, doing the research instead of playing the matches, and his journey from Cal State Dominguez Hills to a two-decade professional career and now broadcasting.

Lori Lindsey and Kei Kamara drop by SDH AM to look at Red Bulls and Philly (plus a little NWSL with Gotham playing in the same place tonight) and what it's like to be sitting at the table on MLS 360

Good Enough to Keep Watching, Not Good Enough to Stop Complaining This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl take a somber look back at three icons we lost this week with Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, and Peter Cullen, and the massive mark each left on pop culture. Then it's back to the weekly watchlist as Ted Lasso tries to bring the Greyhounds together, Reacher digs deeper into an increasingly dangerous conspiracy, and Lanterns pushes Hal Jordan and John Stewart further into a mystery that is getting a whole lot more cosmic. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Celebrity Deaths This Week: 4:46 Ted Lasso Season 4 Episode 4: 16:20 Reacher Season 4 Episode 5: 24:40 Lanterns Season 1 Episode 2: 3240 Celebrity Deaths Dolly Parton January 19, 1946 – August 25, 2026 | Age 80 Country music icon, songwriter, actress, businesswoman, and philanthropist Dolly Parton died August 25 after what her representatives described as a brief battle with cancer. Her six-decade career produced classics including “Jolene,” “9 to 5,” and “I Will Always Love You,” while her film career included 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias. Parton's legacy extends far beyond music. She helped build Dollywood into one of Tennessee's biggest attractions and founded the Imagination Library, which has provided hundreds of millions of free books to children. Dollywood announced that the park would remain open following her death, honoring her belief that “the show must go on.” Infamous angle: One of those genuinely rare celebrities who seemed to transcend genre, politics, generations, and even celebrity culture itself. Tim Curry April 19, 1946 – August 25, 2026 | Age 80 Actor, singer, and voice performer Tim Curry died peacefully at his Los Angeles home following a period of ill health. Curry became a cultural icon as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but his ridiculously versatile career also included Clue, It, Home Alone 2, Muppet Treasure Island, Legend, The Three Musketeers, and decades of stage and voice work. He received three Tony nominations and continued working after suffering a major stroke in 2012 that left him using a wheelchair. For an entire generation of genre fans, Curry was basically the patron saint of unforgettable villains and weirdos. Peter Cullen July 28, 1941 – August 26, 2026 | Age 85 Legendary Canadian voice actor Peter Cullen died peacefully at his Los Angeles home surrounded by family. No cause of death has been announced. Cullen became inseparable from Optimus Prime, originating the character’s voice in the 1984 Transformers animated series and returning repeatedly across animation, games, and the live-action films. He also voiced Eeyore in Winnie the Pooh and contributed memorable vocal work to Predator, Knight Rider, G.I. Joe, and numerous animated series. The voice and personality he created for Optimus were inspired in large part by his older brother Larry, a decorated Marine veteran, whose advice to Peter was essentially that a real hero should be strong enough to be gentle. That philosophy became fundamental to Optimus Prime. Infamous angle: For anybody who grew up in the ’80s, this one hits differently. Optimus Prime wasn’t merely a cartoon voice. Ted Lasson (Apple TV) Network: Apple TV Genre: Comedy / Sports / Drama Developed By: Jason Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly Starring: Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, Jeremy Swift Season: 4 Episode: 4 Episode Title: “Greyhounds’ Day Off” Release Date: August 26, 2026 Episode Summary Ted, Beard, and Coach Alice try to break up the cliques developing within the new team by canceling practice and sending everyone out for some forced bonding, eventually leading the group to pub trivia and considerably more trouble than Ted probably planned. Meanwhile, Rebecca and Keeley attend a women’s football business summit where they encounter eccentric sports investor Zelda Southport, played by Tracey Ullman. Zelda’s aggressive approach to investing in women’s sports gets Keeley’s attention while Rebecca remains considerably more skeptical. Roy and Keeley’s increasingly complicated relationship also continues, with Keeley challenging Roy to actually date other women before the two seriously consider getting back together. Rating Out of 5, Boots Ain’t Messing Around Brian: 3.3/5 Darryl: 3.1/5 Reacher (Amazon Prime) Network: Prime Video Genre: Action / Crime / Thriller Based On: Gone Tomorrow by Lee Child Developed By: Nick Santora Starring: Alan Ritchson, Sydelle Noel, Agnez Mo, Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette, Kevin Corrigan Season: 4 Episode: 5 Episode Title: “Bridge” Release Date: August 26, 2026 Rating: TV-MA Series Summary A seemingly random encounter aboard a Philadelphia subway pulls Jack Reacher into a conspiracy involving a missing flash drive, government operatives, hired killers, and information powerful people are desperate to keep buried. Season four adapts Lee Child's Gone Tomorrow and drops Reacher into an increasingly tangled political and intelligence conspiracy. Episode Summary After a misunderstanding turns Reacher into Philadelphia's most wanted man, he spends much of the episode doing what Reacher does best: escaping situations that should probably be impossible to escape. Meanwhile, Jacob, Tamara, and Plum recover the flash drive Anna mailed before her death, along with her phone, but their attempt to finally get some answers turns into a violent confrontation with Lila and Amisha. Jacob gets his first genuine opportunity to strike back at the people responsible for his sister's death. The recovered evidence also starts bringing the larger conspiracy into focus. A photograph connects Congressman Sampson to a disgraced Indonesian general, but Reacher suspects another person in the image may actually be more important to the mystery. Anna's phone also gives the group stronger evidence tying Lila directly to the killings. By the end, Reacher and Tamara's investigation leads them toward another confrontation while Jacob is taken hostage, leaving Tamara with a pretty awful decision to make. And this one definitely supports the subtitle vibe we were talking about: there's plenty of entertaining Reacher insanity here, but the season is getting increasingly dependent on everyone accepting some wildly convenient and increasingly ridiculous shit to keep the plot moving. Rating Out of 5, How Many Ways Can One Person Escape the Police? Brian: 3.2/5 Darryl: 3.25/5 Lanterns (HBO Max) Lanterns Network: HBO / HBO Max Genre: Drama / Sci-Fi / Action / Mystery Created By: Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof, Tom King Starring: Kyle Chandler, Aaron Pierre, Kelly Macdonald, Garret Dillahunt, Poorna Jagannathan, Laura Linney, Jason Ritter Season: 1 Episode: 2 Episode Title: “Trust Fall” Release Date: August 23, 2026 Rating: TV-14 Series Summary Veteran Green Lantern Hal Jordan is assigned to train former Marine and newly recruited Lantern John Stewart. Their relationship begins badly enough before the two are dragged into an investigation surrounding a bizarre killing in rural Nebraska. What initially resembles an Earthbound murder mystery steadily exposes a much larger extraterrestrial conspiracy connected to the history of the Green Lantern Corps. Episode Summary Hal and John investigate a deadly shooting in an attempt to prove that an alien force was responsible, with their investigation increasingly pointing toward one of the Green Lantern Corps’ oldest mistakes: the Manhunters. The episode digs deeper into the mystery surrounding Rushville while separating Hal and John enough to develop both characters individually. Sheriff Kerry also reveals that she originally came from Gotham, quietly expanding the show’s connections to the larger DCU.And then the episode drops the considerably bigger comic-book bomb: Sinestro, played by Ulrich Thomsen. The imprisoned former Lantern is positioned almost like the show’s Hannibal Lecter, someone Hal doesn’t trust but may need because Sinestro understands both Hal and the threat they are facing better than almost anyone.

Matt Reeves' The Batman is a bold, moody reinvention of the Caped Crusader that leans hard into noir, atmosphere, and a version of Gotham that feels grimy, broken, and alive. In this episode, the film itself is the real focus, from Pattinson's darker take on Bruce Wayne to Matt Reeves' slow-burn pacing, the chilling Riddler, and the way the movie balances detective story, superhero spectacle, and emotional weight. Whether you loved the three-hour runtime or thought it dragged, this review digs into what works, what doesn't, and why The Batman has sparked so much debate.

In this ScreenFish 1on1 Interview, executive producer Geoffrey Thorne discusses BATMAN: CAPED CRUSADER Season 2, its connection to Batman's animated legacy, and the evolution of this particular Dark Knight. He explores what makes Matthew Needham's Joker unique and why Batman and Joker remain connected. Thorne also discusses Carrie Kelly, what Batman still needs to learn about himself, and whether Gotham's vigilante can evolve beyond vengeance to become a genuine symbol of hope for a broken city.BATMAN: CAPED CRUSADER S2 is now streaming on  @PrimeVideoCA .#batman #capedcrusader #animation #interview #joker #podcast #streaming #primevideo

More To The Story: Ben McKenzie might seem like an unlikely choice to launch an investigation into the complicated world of cryptocurrency. But the television actor known for shows like The O.C. and Gotham did exactly that. His documentary film, Everyone Is Lying to You for Money, is a deep dive into the people and companies at the heart of crypto. The film focuses on McKenzie's journey to discover why people continue to invest in digital currency even while knowing the risks of this highly under-regulated market. On this week's More To The Story, McKenzie shares his concerns for what he calls the cult-like behavior of those investing in digital currency, talks about his interview with disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried just months before his arrest, and discusses the poignant conversations he had with everyday people who trusted the power of digital currency and lost everything—yet are still crypto believers.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick | Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Intern: Joni Binder | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonRead:Easy Money: Cryptocurrency, Casino Capitalism, and the Golden Age of Fraud (Abrams Press)Watch:Everyone Is Lying to You for Money (The Forge)Listen:The Secret Story of FTX's Rise and Ruin Part 1 (Reveal)Listen: So You Don't Understand Crypto.

Jace and Rocky break down all 14 DC releases for the week of August 26, 2026. Batman: Bad Seeds — Sunset #1 begins the Bad Seeds event with Poison Ivy handing Gotham over to the Parliament of Trees in exchange for immunity over the death of Bog Venus, but the spectacle-heavy crossover immediately strips away much of the nuance that has made G. Willow Wilson's Poison Ivy run so strong. Justice League Unlimited #22 briefly gives Mr. Terrific the combined powers of the Justice League while Blue Beetle quietly assembles heroes who suspect Batman, Wonder Woman and the League leadership may have been compromised by Darkseid, as the amnesty granted to supervillains creates legitimate distrust inside and outside the League. Detective Comics #1112 brings Batman, Green Arrow and Black Canary to the truth surrounding Prion's death and an emotional decision about whether that truth should ever be revealed. Poison Ivy #47 accelerates Pamela's fall as she loses Harley, alienates Janet from HR, loses Vandal Savage as an ally and watches Peter Undine take control of the Knights of the Green Order before making a desperate bargain with the Parliament of Trees. Zatanna #5 takes Zatanna into the Hidden City as Jamal Campbell continues expanding the magical rules, rituals and mythology surrounding her role as Prime Magus. Absolute Wonder Woman #23 finds Diana singularly focused on locating Barbara Minerva without realizing Barbara has willingly become the Cheetah, while Zeus calls upon a reluctant Ares as part of an unknown plan against Wonder Woman and Veronica Cale's daughter becomes increasingly important to the larger mystery. Absolute Catwoman #3 reunites Selina with Holly and Helena Bertinelli as the story moves between their present-day mission and their earlier days as the Calicos, including a mysterious list connected to Cain and the reality-altering technology known as the Yarn. The Flash #36 has Wally expanding his attempt to prevent crime before it happens into Metropolis, prompting Green Arrow to finally confront him over how invasive and dangerous that level of intervention has become and quietly gather other heroes to discuss whether Wally has crossed a line. Green Lantern #38 forces Kyle Rayner to confront the amnesty granted to Major Force before swinging into a bizarre battle involving Condiment King, FEAST and Big Belly Burger's corporate mascots, while Hal Jordan's separate space storyline with Jana continues. Superman: Father of Tomorrow #4 continues raising uncomfortable questions about Jor-El's attempts to guide Earth's technological development while introducing Hex Luthor, a Lex who abandoned science for magic and demonstrates just how dangerous that choice has made him. Superman #41 escalates Superman's battle with Zod under the effects of kryptonite as the Kingdom of Zod story takes a major and genuinely unexpected turn, dramatically shifting the balance of power and opening a new direction involving Ursa, the Kryptonian forces and the time machine already established in the larger Superman continuity. Harley Quinn #65 concludes the Harq Knight Returns arc with Harley's two halves merging back together with little explanation before repositioning her for the upcoming Bad Seeds story with Poison Ivy. Black Tower: The Raven Conspiracy #1 introduces Daniel Burroughs, an intelligence operative with statistically abnormal psychic instincts, as Ram V blends espionage, psychic phenomena and occult mystery into a strong Vertigo debut. Finally, Next Level One Shot #1 sends Deadshot on what appears to be a straightforward assassination job only for him to discover a much larger conspiracy involving people who may literally not be themselves, potentially laying the groundwork for both a new Suicide Squad and a larger Next Level crossover. Jace and Rocky also cover this week's collected editions before ranking all 14 books and revealing their Books of the Week.

Gotham needs therapy, Batman needs a concussion protocol, and we're apparently the idiots qualified to diagnose both. This week the CREEP-O-RAMA crew throws themselves headfirst into Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises (2012) before descending into the rain-soaked crime-noir nightmare of Matt Reeves' The Batman (2022), proving once again that three movie nerds with microphones are significantly more dangerous than The Riddler with a carpet tucker.First up, Christian Bale's Batman spends half the episode accidentally giving Gotham's criminal population lifelong CTE because, remember kids... "NO GUNS." Why shoot a criminal when you can instead launch him face-first into a brick wall at Mach 3 and financially assassinate him with six-figure hospital bills? Meanwhile, Tom Hardy's Bane delivers dialogue so unbelievably poetic that we become convinced he spends every evening alone in a subway bathroom rehearsing villain monologues in the mirror. "You merely adopted the dark..." wasn't improvised—that man practiced it 4,000 times while his henchmen awkwardly waited outside wondering why taking over Gotham was behind schedule.Then it's time for Matt Reeves' The Batman, starring Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright, Andy Serkis,and Colin Farrell, where we ask the truly important questions: Is this a Batman movie? Is it Se7en with bat ears? Is it Zodiac wearing combat boots? Why does Batman introduce himself as "I'm Vengeance" ONE. TIME and the entire city knows about it? We also investigate Batman's astonishing ability to contaminate every crime scene with gloves containing approximately forty seven different criminals' DNA, debate why Gordon thought plugging an anonymous USB drive into a work computer was a solid cybersecurity strategy, question whether Paul Dano's Riddler spent more time solving riddles or fighting with duct tape that folded over on itself and argue over whether that wingsuit was actually a good idea. We're still undecided on that one. By the end of the episode, we've somehow transformed two Batman films into discussions about municipal infrastructure, sports franchises, workplace IT violations, and catastrophic healthcare debt. It's movie criticism. It's forensic analysis. It's us adoringsome of our favorite characters of all time.

Batman: El Cruzado Enmascarado regresa con una temporada 2 más oscura, segura y atrevida. En esta crítica sin spoilers analizamos los diez nuevos episodios de la serie animada de Prime Video y por qué esta nueva etapa mejora varios aspectos importantes de su primera temporada. Hamish Linklater vuelve como Batman y Bruce Wayne, pero esta vez encontramos a un personaje que empieza a descubrir que trabajar solo no siempre es una virtud. Su relación con Alfred evoluciona, personajes como Barbara Gordon y Jim Gordon ganan importancia y la serie aprovecha mucho mejor las dos caras de Bruce: tanto el vigilante como el millonario capaz de utilizar su identidad pública para investigar. La temporada 2 de Batman: El Cruzado Enmascarado también lleva más lejos su mezcla de cine negro, historias detectivescas, ciencia ficción retro y, especialmente, terror. Gotham continúa teniendo una estética fantástica y sus nuevos casos permiten reinterpretar a varios villanos clásicos de Batman. Pero el gran protagonista es inevitablemente el Joker de Matthew Needham. Una versión mucho más fría, calculadora y contenida del personaje, que renuncia a buena parte de su componente cómico para convertirse en una presencia realmente inquietante. También hablamos de los problemas de ritmo de la temporada, su estructura episódica, las limitaciones de la animación y de por qué esta segunda entrega funciona mejor cuando se atreve a experimentar. ¿Puede dar más miedo el Joker precisamente cuando deja de intentar hacer gracia? #BatmanElCruzadoEnmascarado #Batman #Joker #PrimeVideo #DC #DCComics #Series Únete a nuestro canal y apoya a FUERA DE SERIES: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFNyyACx7XbgZ4-S4jzNnGQ/join Únete a nuestro chat de telegram en el que miles de personas hablamos cada día de series: - Telegram – Grupo de debate: https://telegram.me/fueradeseries - Telegram – Canal de noticias: https://t.me/noticiasfds Síguenos en nuestras plataformas y podcast sobre series: - Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/es/podcast/fuera-de-series/id288039262 - Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3RTDss6AAGjSNozVOhDNzX?si=700febbf305144b7&nd=1 - iVoox - https://www.ivoox.com/podcast-fuera-series_sq_f12063_1.html Redes Sociales - Twitter: https://twitter.com/fueradeseries - Facebook: https://facebook.com/fueradeseries - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fueradeseries/ - Youtube: https://youtube.com/fueradeseries Learn more about your ad choices.

This is our longest episode yet. Today we dig into the origins of the Batman. Gotham's darkest Caped Crusader, the man who puts fear into the criminal underworld. We discuss his creators, his origin, his allies, his rogues gallery and the city he was born into, Gotham. We talk about how the world influenced him and how he influenced the world in this comic book history, nerdy deep dive episode of the Family Plot Podcast!

The Lego Batman Movie shouldn't work as well as it does. A feature-length gag reel built out of plastic bricks has no business landing a real Batman character arc, and yet it does. In this episode, the hosts dig into how Will Arnett's relentlessly self-serious Batman powers the comedy rather than resisting it, why the film can lovingly mock eighty years of Bat-history without ever feeling like it's punching down at the source, and where its wall-to-wall frenetic pace becomes a barrier for viewers who came in expecting Gotham to stay serious. From the voice work and the surprisingly grounded take on Barbara Gordon to the anything-goes finale that stretches the premise to its limit, this conversation looks at what a Batman movie gains, and quietly gives up, when it decides not to take itself seriously.

Holy Aerosol Spray, Batman! Gotham's on drugs!  This week we're diving into Batman Begins (2005) and The Dark Knight (2008), both directed by Christopher Nolan, and what starts as a straightforward celebration of two of the greatest superhero movies ever made ends up going places we may or may not have wanted to go. Thanks, Jonathan. We start by praising Batman Begins but the convo quickly spirals faster than Gotham's insurance premiums. We celebrate Cillian Murphy's Scarecrow for committing city-wide chemical warfare before casually going back to selling drugs like the most overqualified pharmacist in comic book history.Seriously. Imagine turning an entire city into a nightmare hallucination... and then showing back up six months later like:"Hey guys... anybody need drugs?"AND PEOPLE BUY THEM.We harp on why Wayne Enterprises invested millions into developing a wrist-mounted Van Opener™, memory-cloth capes, and sonar surveillance technology instead of, you know... starting with functioning neck mobility. Somewhere in Gotham, Lucius Fox is trying to cure cancer while Bruce Wayne keeps asking if his grappling hook can also be used as a can opener.  Then we arrive at The Dark Knight, where Heath Ledger's Joker once again reminds us that he isn't just one of the greatest comic book villains ever put on film—he's a sleep paralysis demon that somehow learned improv comedy. We refuse to believe Joker's bank robbery happened without seventeen planning meetings, four whiteboards, three Google Calendars, a shared Dropbox folder, and at least one henchman getting yelled at because the shipment of bazooka's weren't delivered before lunch.There had to be a clown accountant.There HAD to be.Elsewhere we celebrate Mark Hamill's legendary Joker, Jack Nicholson, discuss Barry Keoghan, not-so-politely acknowledge Jared Leto's... attempt... gush over Batman: The Animated Series, the Harley Quinn animated series, question Gothamites incredible inability to recognize billionaires wearing armor, and wonder how on earth did Batman get in that interrogation room. Where does he get those wonderful toys, indeed.

Cryptocurrency is a story about how lines of code can be like cash. It's a pretty stupid story says actor Ben McKenzie. He's best known for playing teen heartthrob Ryan Atwood in The O.C. and Detective James Gordon in Gotham. For the last few years, he's taken on a very different role, crypto sceptic. First came a book, now there's a documentary, examining an industry sold by celebrities, influencers, tech entrepreneurs and financial insiders as the next big thing. The documentary is called Everyone Is Lying to You for Money. When major streaming services passed on the film, McKenzie decided to take it directly to audiences instead. Ben joins Jesse to discuss.

Kyler recently caught up with author Zoe Hansen to discuss her memoir, Going Down in Gotham, published by Far West Press. Kyler praises the book as one of his absolute favorite reads of the year, highlighting its pocket-sized paperback format—designed by the publisher to evoke classic, throw-in-your-back-pocket paperbacks—and its eye-catching cover art by Berlin-based artist Olya Dyer. The conversation explores Hansen's experience writing about her decades navigating addiction, New York City's sex industry, and running brothels from the East Village to Uptown—including how 9/11 dramatically shifted those businesses. The two also talked about writing routines, navigating the modern publishing world, and avoiding the sanitized "redemption arc" narratives in favor of honesty.Going Down in Gotham is available through Far West Press, and readers can find Zoe Hansen Instagram (@thez0e). ---Episode Links:Purchase Going Down in GothamIG: @thez0eSLD Post

This week on Fantastic Forum, we're heading back to Gotham and returning to a DC Universe where superheroes, kingdoms, and magic collide! First up is Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2 on Prime Video. Hamish Linklater returns as Batman alongside Jamie Chung as Harley Quinn, as Gotham continues to reel from the fallout of Harvey Dent's downfall. With the Riddler, Scarecrow, Mad Hatter, and a chilling new take on the Joker entering the fray, the second season expands the series' noir-inspired vision of Gotham while pushing its characters into darker and more dangerous territory. We're talking about the new villains, the surprising character reimaginings, and whether Caped Crusader continues to prove there's plenty of life left in animated Batman. Then we turn to Dark Knights of Steel II #1, the return of DC's epic medieval Elseworlds saga from writer Tom Taylor and artist Otto Schmidt, with colors by Arif Prianto and letters by Wes Abbott. An ancient and violent war is brewing beneath the waves, while a traitor hides in plain sight among the League's own ranks. As the Houses of El and Wayne, the Kingdom of Storms, and the Amazons face a new threat, the fantasy world created by Taylor and Schmidt is heading toward its darkest days yet. We're digging into the return of this fan-favorite alternate DC Universe and seeing whether the sequel can live up to the original. Watch tonight at 6:30 pm PT and call in live at www.fantasticforum.live to share your thoughts. Fantastic Forum, assemble!

Forrest, Conan Neutron, Kristina Oakes and FreddyG discuss Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Last week, we did the 2005 Batman origin story.. Batman Begins. Christopher Nolan's first entry in a grittier, realier, darker Batman series after decades of more campy and cartoonish portrayals. However, it was the Dark Knight in 2008 that really was the gem in the Batman crown for Nolan's trilogy.Coming at an incredibly pivotal year in American History, with the winds of change hopefully in the air, the Dark Knight blew up like a discourse bomb, inspiring like Batman himself, dozens of copycats and changing the trajectory of the "Superhero Movie" by being more crime movie than comic book movie.Of all the performances, Heath Ledger who actually died six months before the movie finally came out, stole the show as the chaotic and nihilistic Joker who manages to get all Gotham's Organized Crime under his thumb without them realizing what they've unleashed.Starring Christian Bale, Heath Ledger as the Joker, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Maggie Gylenhaal as Rachel, Gary Oldman, and Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent. FreddyG is a stand up comedian who hosts the monthly stand up show "Paid Protest Comedy" with Anders Lee and Kate Willett and Nonye Brown-West as well as doing content creation for Track AIPAC. Conan is ONCE AGAIN going on tour to the West Coast from August 26th to September 5th https://www.songkick.com/artists/8525203-conan-neutron-and-the-secret-friends

Ali Riley & Kelley O'Hara break down one of the craziest weekends in the NWSL EVER! Last week was all about 5 goals, this week we hit 7 goals in TWO games.

Gotham keeps winning despite lack of defensive depth as they sit at the top of the table. And could Utah vs Denver be the NWSL's next great rivalry?

Our crime fighting trio voluntarily hurls themselves into Joel Schumacher's radioactive fever dream this week by revisiting Batman Forever (1995) and Batman & Robin (1997), where every streetlight is apparently a blacklight, every criminal belongs to a themed fashion gang, and Val Kilmer is unanimously crowned the hottest Batman to ever brood beneath a cowl. Sorry, George. The gang breaks down why Kilmer somehow nails both Bruce Wayne and Batman, why Clooney spends most of Batman & Robin sounding like he's reading cue cards held hostage just off camera, and why Arnold Schwarzenegger's Mr. Freeze deserves either an Oscar or a lifetime ban from speaking in public. Somewhere between ice pun #47 and ice pun #72, the conversation evolves into the realization that Batman could have ended the movie 15 different times if he'd simply thrown literally anything at Mr. Freeze instead of politely waiting for him to finish his stand-up routine. Of course, no Schumacher discussion would be completewithout celebrating Jim Carrey's beautifully deranged Riddler, Tommy Lee Jones' aggressively theatrical Two-Face, Gotham's inexplicably fabulous glow-stick street gangs, and the discovery that every supervillain in the city must share the same criminal seamstress. Seriously... who keeps making these immaculatecustom henchman uniforms? Is there a union? Is there a rewards program? Does Riddler get 15% off after ordering matching jackets? We demand answers.Along the way, we ask Gotham's most important questions: Why is Riddler Island covered in giant glowing questionmarks if nobody is supposed to know where the Riddler lives? Why does every gang member look like they just got kicked out of a goth laser tag tournament?And perhaps the greatest mystery in comic book history... who approved all those bat nipples?Come for the Batman discussions, stay for the cinematic nonsense that somehow just keeps getting better.
