JKS 55 The Misdiagnosis Drama of 2022Buried in the backyard. recorded over 2 years ago, 2 weeks before our trip to PCAP Palm Springs.If you hate cringy, raw, emotional podcasts, definitely skip this one.I don't cry in this one but there is a lot of processing. We didn't feel good about releasing earlier because we felt it too cringy for most listeners but,we were reminded of the importance of why we do what we do.Part 1We decided to get a second STI test done after not being able to get answers after a Dr appointment and were waiting to discuss results the following week.Then Dr wasn't able to see us IRL until a whole week after our phone diagnosis.Part 2Monday after the dr office test, we were told the diagnosis before our second test results by STDcheck.com came in and took steps to confirm diagnosis. Part 3While waiting to see the DR IRL friday, and after calling all our LS friends, the results from STDCheck came in NEGATIVE! When we saw the DR. she said the test she ran was misinterpreted & the sores she had were probably caused by something else but she didn't know what for sure.It turns out you had foliculitis and Myrsa most likely from a waxing appointmnt.We learned a lot from that experience.What new drama awaits as we prepare for another Swingcation? Stay tuned for the next episode. "Same Bat time. Same Bat channel!"We hope you enjoy the show!Thank You for listening, and "Just Keep Swinging"!You can reach Mr.Sting at @JKSwingingPod on Twitter or @justkeepswinging.bsky.socialemail at JustKeepSwingingPod@gmail.comIf you like our show and the perspective we provide, PLEASE give us a positive review on iTunes.  If you don't like us, say nothing and just move along .WE HIGHLY RESPECT THE FOLLOWING LIST OF CREATORS(FYI-we do not generate any form of compensation from our show.

Send us a Text Message.This week, the TGTPTU's untrademarked “temporal pincer movement” catches up with the boys as THE DARK KNIGHT RISES (2012), Sir Christopher Nolan's conclusion to his Batman trilogy, gets covered before his penultimate The Dark Knight. Sir Chris has been quoted as saying, “There are no good third sequels, basically—Rocky III maybe,” and this week Ken, Ryan, and returning former host and editor Jack gang up to defend the film against Thomas's lackluster appreciation for the film that ends the Nolan franchise.  Additional to Sir Nolan and Dame Emma Thomas expressing feelings that they were content with where and how The Dark Knight ended, production of a sequel was complicated by the death of Heath Ledger as Joker, a major draw of the preceding film and the basis for a rough idea Sir Nolan had if he decided to make a third film. Instead of whatever might have been, the Brothers Nolan wrote a movie about Batman's retirement inspired by the French Revolution as told by Charles Dickens in A Tale of Two Cities that brought us Nolan-versions of Catwoman (Anne Hathaway who will star in Interstellar, Nolan's next film and part of TGTPTU's previously pairing) and Robin (Joseph Gordon-Levitt who had starred in Inception, Nolan's previous film covered in TGTPTU's next and final pairing).  It's a race against the calendar clock as Batman/Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) has to heal himself from a back broken by big baddy Bane (Tom Hardy) in order to escape an underground prison-hole in the desert by making a leap of faith and back to Gotham before an atomic bomb set to explode in a mere five months can go off and destroy the city he's sworn to protect, a city with the majority of its police squad trapped underground, a city judicially administered by a kangaroo court presided over by Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy) while Commissioner Gordon (Gary Oldman) is laid up in a hospital bed working with the Boy Wonder who consults the Gotham permitting office and discovers Bane's nefarious plan. Or, as Jack suggests, the plot is simply a proper British gentleman with stiff upper lip seated cross-legged on the plush carpet of his country manor smashing action figures together.   Listen for technical difficulties band-aided on mic by the show's former editor Jack; to Ken lose his cohosts with American football jokes; and bat scrotum. Also for your ears' pleasure, each host cycles through their impersonation, allowing the listener to judge who does the best Bane impression… for you.  See you next week for the exciting concluding pincered pair of Dark Knight and Inception. Same Bat time, same Bat channel.THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Twitter: https://twitter.com/thegoodthepoda1YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gBuzzsprout: https://thegoodthepodandtheugly.buzzsprout.com/Letterboxd (follow us!):Ken: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

Soup. Prince. Danny Elfman. Rubber. These are the words Tyler used to describe this movie when asked what these show notes should talk about. What more is there to say? Well, a couple of things: Join our dynamic duo as they jump forward in time by no less than two decades to a year they still weren't born in, 1989! The fall of the Berlin Wall, the end of the Cold War, and the launch of the GameBoy pale in comparison to the Dark Knight making his triumphant return to the cinema! Look quickly, but using your whole torso to see slightly to your left, and TRY to find something more historic that year. Tim Burton's Batman stars Randall P. McMurphy as Joker, Beetlejuice as Batman, and Lando Calrissian as Harvey Dent. This episode stars Craig and Tyler because they all do. Don't change that bat-dial or you'll miss out on discussions of sleeping chaotically, proper work attire, and the similarities of Batman and Hunchback of Notre Dame. Same Bat-time! Same Bat-channel! Be sure to bat-LIKE, bat-RATE, bat-SUBSCRIBE, and bat-SHARE so that you can become...ouuurrrrrr number onnnnnnnnne...a-guyyyyyy!

Between Netflix, Amazon, Crave and more, the marketing of TV shows has become a rat-race.

Alfred's bland food (also known as: English food) galore as we head into the end of yet another week here at the BatMinuteCave.

Who are you? What is love? BRUCE THE BOOZEHOUND! CONFIRMED! Or is it? We are joined once more, for the final time this week, by everybody's favourite accordion noise merchant and punk rock deviant Kit Flemons of the band Rat Bit Kit. He's proven to be a popular guest so far and no doubt this episode will be similarly entertaining! Bid him adieu, good folks... for now. The next episode follows on Monday.

The next episode follows on Friday. Same Bat pod, different Bat minute! Kit Flemons - Rat Bit Kit

Bruce and Vicki have their date night... at Wayne Manor itself! You want talk about soup? You'd better do because, oh boy, there's soup, soup and MORE damn soup!

Continuing the old-school feel today it's the Bat Boys and ONLY the Bat Boys on this episode. I think I'm going to drop this Bat Boys thing, jeez... Minute 29 sees a sliced and diced Napier clinging to the Bat for dear life, while he himself pulls a face like he's trying to open a jar of sauce. JACK TAKES A TUMBLE! JACK MAKES A SPLASH! Does he survive? Does he die? He certainly won't be turned insane and into an even worse crook by it, that's for sure. Batman has one other foe to vanquish - a stiff neck. A CORPSE RISES FROM THE DEPTHS! All this and more on today's NON-STOP, ACTION PACKED, Bat Minute '89! The next episode follows on Friday. Same Bat pod, different Bat minute.

The Bat Boys are taking it old school this week as they are working as the original dynamic duo. What excitement is in store? Jack and the Bat are keen to swap fashion tips, but things take a turn for the worse when Napier decides to reach for his BULLET gun rather than his GLUE gun. The Bat makes himself elusive... A Prince reference can't console us as our beloved Porkins takes one for the team YET AGAIN! Can this guy catch a break? NAPIER IN DANGER! Will The Bat step up to save him after all? Can he forgive his crimes? We'll have to leave you dangling over a vat of antici... pation on that one, Bat fans!   The next episode follows on Wednesday! Same Bat pod, different Bat minute!

Download the MP3 file of this posting. Blockbuster v. Galeno, 2006 WL 3775326, Docket No. 05-8019 (2d Cir. Dec. 26, 2006). On March 23, 2006, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit handed down a summary order remanding this case against Blockbuster back to state court, in order to meet CAFA’s 60 day time limit to render decision under 1453(c)(2). The summary order can be found at Galeno v. Blockbuster, Inc., 171 Fed. Appx. 904 (2d Cir. 2006). On December 26, 2006, Circuit Judge Cardamone, writing for the Second Circuit, handed down an opinion explaining its reasoning behind the summary order.The case was originally filed as a class action in New York State Supreme Court on February 15, 2005 by Michael L. Galeno and other Plaintiffs against Blockbuster regarding Blockbuster’s “No Late Fee” program. The plaintiffs alleged deceptive business practice under New York law along with unjust enrichment under common law. The court noted that Blockbuster’s conduct resulted in a suit being brought by 47 Attorneys General and the District of Columbia which resulted in settlement and closing of the program by March 15, 2005.  The no late fee program began on January 1, 2005, and it was widely advertised by Blockbuster.  Under the program, Blockbuster no longer charged customers late fees for keeping rented videos past their due date, but instead automatically converted the rental to a sale of the video on the eighth day past the video’s original due date. The customer was billed for the selling price of the video minus the initial rental fee already paid. If the customer returned the video within 30 days after the sale date, Blockbuster refunded the sales price minus a $1.25 restocking fee.  The complaint alleged that the advertising was deceptive because it omitted the material fact that customers would be charged a sale fee. Blockbuster included some information on its website, but allegedly did not make the details clear. Also, Blockbuster allegedly omitted pertinent details from its store signage and television advertising. The plaintiff alleged this advertising program violated New York General Business Law. The plaintiff claimed that there were thousands of members of the class with statutory damages of $50 dollars per customer.  Blockbuster removed the action to federal court on April 1, 2005 asserting diversity jurisdiction under both complete diversity and minimal diversity based on CAFA. The plaintiffs moved for remand on the ground that the federal court lacked jurisdiction because Blockbuster could not satisfy the CAFA amount in controversy of $5 million. Blockbuster filed under seal a declaration by its senior vice president and corporate controller, James Howell. The declaration described the total amount of restocking fees and converted sales incurred by New York customers from January 1, 2005 to May 19, 2005.  Blockbuster also asserted that CAFA changed the traditional rule applied in the complete diversity context, that the party seeking removal to federal court bears the burden of establishing jurisdiction, citing Yeroushalmi v. Blockbuster, Inc., No. 05-225, 2005 WL 2083008 (C.D. Cal. July 11, 2005) (implicitly overruled by Abrego v. Dow Chemical Company). (Editors' Note: See the CAFA Law Blog analysis of Yeroushalmi posted on November 28, 2005 and the CAFA Law Blog analysis of Abrego posted on May 25, 2006).  On July 13, 2005, the district court issued a brief order denying the motion to remand stating “I’m in substantial agreement with [the Yeroushalmi court].” The court did not, however, explain the basis on which it found subject matter jurisdiction.  The plaintiff filed a motion for permission to appeal the district court’s ruling, which the Second Circuit granted. The Second Circuit issued the summary order on March 23, 2006, and vacated and remanded the order of the district court with instructions that the district court explain its calculation of the reasonably probable damages.  On this appeal, the issue before the Second Circuit was which party bears the threshold burden of proof of demonstrating the existence of minimal diversity jurisdiction under CAFA upon removal.  (Editors' Note: To see the CAFA Law Blog view of the issues, see the law review article by CAFA Law Blog Editors Hunter Twiford, Anthony Rollo and John Rouse entitled “CAFA’s New ‘Minimal Diversity’ Standard For Interstate Class Actions Creates A Presumption That Jurisdiction Exists, With The Burden Of Proof Assigned To The Party Opposing Jurisdiction.”).  The court began by outlining CAFA’s new jurisdictional provisions. Next, the court turned to the case at hand to see if the requirements of CAFA were met, but paused first to discuss the burden of proof.  Naturally, the parties took separate sides as to the burden of proof question. Blockbuster pointed to CAFA’s legislative history for the answer. The appeals court stated that the district court was wrong in following the Yeroushalmi case. The Court also cited DiTolla v. Doral Dental, a prior ruling of the Second Circuit holding CAFA did not change the burden of proof. (Editors' Note:  See the CAFA Law Blog analysis of Doral Dental posted on December 28, 2006). The judge conceded that Congress displayed an aim in CAFA to broaden certain aspects of federal jurisdiction for interstate class actions, but that Congress also must have appreciated the law regarding removal as noted in Brill. (Editors' Note:  See the CAFA Law Blog analysis of Brill posted on November 2, 2005).  CAFA’s Senate Judiciary Committee Report was of minimal value to the Court because, it says, the Report was issued ten days after the enactment of CAFA. The court cited Abrego and Miedema for the propositions that Congress has to explicitly overrule precedent and committee reports cannot serve as an independent statutory source. (Editors' Note:  See the CAFA Law Blog analysis of Miedema posted on August 22, 2006.  See also the CAFA Law Blog critique of the Miedema decision posted on August 22, 2006).  The court followed Abrego, Evans, Brill [In that order, the Ninth, Eleventh and Seventh] noting that every circuit court that has considered the issue has reached the same conclusion. (Editors' Note:  See the CAFA Law Blog analysis of Evans posted on May 25, 2006 and the critique of Evans posted on May 26, 2006)] The Court did note that a plaintiff seeking remand bears the burden to show the applicability of CAFA’s abstention exceptions, once the threshold subject matter jurisdiction has been established. (Editors' Note: the court cited Hart, Frazier and Evans for this authority. See the CAFA Law Blog analysis of Hart posted on August 21, 2006 and the analysis of Frazier posted on August 17, 2006).  After the court’s review of the burden of proof standard, the court returned to determine if minimal diversity was met. The named plaintiff was a resident of New York along with thousands of New York customers identified in the complaint. Blockbuster is a citizen of Delaware and Texas. The court quickly determined the minimal diversity of citizenship requirement was met.  Next, as to the $5 million requirement, the Second Circuit determined that the district court had not made any findings and offered no explanation as to how it calculated the amount in controversy. Therefore, the Circuit Court could not properly review the district court’s ruling on the issue. The Second Circuit remanded for the district court to explain its calculation of damages.  (Editors' Note: For a critique of the Second Circuit’s ruling on the burden of proof issue, see our new analysis describing why the Editors believe that Blockbuster and other Courts’ reliance on the publication date of the Senate Judiciary Committee Report as a ground to discredit that Report leads to an incorrect conclusion.  Our new analysis will be posted tomorrow.  Tune in tomorrow.  Same Bat time.  Same Bat channel.) Don't forget.  Please be kind and rewind.
