Bend reality for a scientific analysis of DC's fifth-dimensional menace: Mister Mxyzptlk.. We'll calculate the physics of interdimensional travel, examine the quantum mechanics of reality manipulation, and measure the thermodynamics of transforming skyscrapers into ice cream cones. Our team of multiversal mathematicians will debate whether this impish entity is a manifestation of higher-dimensional physics, the universe's most powerful prankster, or just really committed to making Superman's life surreally complicated.From Silver Age comics to modern appearances, we'll explore why this vowel-challenged troublemaker continues to warp our dimensional understanding. Remember, in Mxyzptlk's reality, everyone can hear you scream... but you might be turned into a two-dimensional cartoon character halfway through.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

The hosts also talk about a wonderful Kristopher Carter soundtrack utilizing a few different styles of music, head-canon for why the Metropolis SCU has such powerful weaponry, Mxyzptlk's hatred of Superman for being Superman and why there's only one formal wear for female attorneys, teachers and newscasters in the DCAU.
