Scott Sebring has shared his interesting research on this topic with us, and we share it in this episode - available only on Patreon!

Surf's Up, Joker's Under is perhaps the most polarizing episode of Batman. Some call it their favorite of season three, or even of the whole series, while Joel Eisner has called it "by far, one of the worst Joker episodes," and even '66 Joker himself Cesar Romero didn't like it. Why is this episode so divisive? Why do the villains in season three keep thinking that taking over one small segment of society (surfing, boxing, flower children) will lead to world domination, without ever explaining Step Two? And who else but us (joined by Horrophelia/"Married With Children" Podcast host Al Edwards) would go to the beach for a "Camping Trip"? Plus, the Bjoern Angermann version of the theme, the awarding of the "D'o(ugh) Prize" for the best alternate lyrics to the Batgirl theme, and your mail! dogtalktv.com, featuring former Catwoman kitten Pat Becker!

The notorious European criminal Sandman is in town - and he’s teamed up with Catwoman! But that’s not how writer Ellis St. Joseph had envisioned this episode, which he based on the classic film “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.” He had written a Catwoman-free script, and Michael Rennie wasn’t in it, either! Tim and Paul are joined by cartoonist and podcaster Joe Dator to discuss the crumbling of St. Joseph’s vision; how Batman’s inability to envision switching costumes anywhere other than along the Batpoles creates logistical nightmares — and is also perfect for this iteration of the character; J. Pauline Spaghetti, Getty Images, and a certain Bat-related video in their library; and some Bat-gossip! ALSO: The Kinks’ version of the Batman theme, and your mail! Joel Eisner on Ellis St. Joseph & Sandman The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (with English title cards) Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari (in the original German) The Devil's Hand, starring Neil Hamilton and Robert Alda The Day the Earth Stood Still, starring Michael Rennie (clip) Sextette, starring Mae West (trailer) Joe Dator interviewed by Tim on Deconstructing Comics Tim and Joe discuss Mr. Roboto on Songs You're Sick Of Howie Horwitz Howie Horwitz in the final Batman episode Howie Horwitz?
