Hey everyone and welcome to episode 600
You should know this by now, but I'm Jill
I'm Jackson
I'm also Joe and you should also know this.
The Plumbing the Deaths, there is a comedy pop culture podcast
that asks the important questions.
Now, to celebrate episode 600, we're going back in time,
back to the future to re-ask questions
that we were unsatisfied with our original answers for.
600 episodes.
That's a lot of episodes. 600. That's 600 exactly
Well 599. This is 600. And in that time you don't nail every question
Exactly. You know it's bound to be some time. Yeah. Most of them.
There's three of us so I'm thinking maybe we just we just stretch episode 600, you know to three weeks. Oh yeah, okay
It's episode 600, three weeks.
Let's all get one.
Okay, everybody gets to pick.
We all get one.
Episode 600 month minus one.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, for my episode I want to revisit, what if Batman was manned back? Okay. Do you remember this one?
No.
Why do you not like it?
Well, so we did this one.
Okay.
Uh, for one, I cannot remember or conceive of the riffs we came up with for this episode.
Okay. or conceive of the riffs we came up with for this episode, okay? But secondly, for some reason, either we did it during COVID, so it was over, like through Zoom,
or it was something wrong with the mics, but the audio's bad.
Oh, no.
Now, remember the audio's shit on that episode.
Okay, so this might help. I've put up the episode description to the 31st of January, 2022.
Okay.
Uh-huh.
What would happen if Batman was being bad?
Mm-huh. What would happen if Batman was being bad? The description just said who knew Gotham's biggest export was
$1,600 milkshakes
So, yeah, I put it to you what would happen okay if Batman was man bad
Oh yeah, I put it to you. What would happen if Batman was Man-Bat? Now obviously Batman is Gotham's Dark Knight, and Man-Bat is a sort of man-bat.
Man-Bat is a creature of the night that is more monster than man and kind of terrifying.
A man took a serum possibly designed to stop diabetes, and he became the Man-Bat.
Isn't Man-Bat's thing... Oh no, I'm thinking of the demon bat thing. Yeah
Yeah, yeah, man bad was yes. Um, I think it's like the animated series
Maybe is like episode two or one depending on what they wanted to air first
And they were just like yeah, yeah like excited just injects. Yeah
Medicine medicine he wants to cure. He's trying to save himself. He's got something something a bat doesn't have.
Like yeah, a lot of bad man's villains kind of share the same kind of vibe as spider-man villains.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's got a lot of you know lizard energy. Yeah, it's all big time big time.
Okay, so yeah, the reason that he inject himself with a serum is way stupider than diabetes.
The reason that he inject himself with a serum is way stupider than diabetes. Okay.
He wanted to give humans a bat's acute sonar sense.
Oh, that's what a noble god thought.
Of course.
He's like, the FDA won't approve any funding to test this on mice, so instead I'm going
to inject him to myself.
Herk Langström.
Was that you Langström?
A zoologist who specializes lies is good named L Langstrom Langstrom
Yes, that is good
And it's a good one for Batman to say well
He's fighting him to try and you know remind him of his humanity Langstrom Langstrom Langstrom you're in there
I know you're in there
Maybe not
Maybe you're just like a man bat.
Specializes in bats, develops an extract intended to give humans a bat's acute sonar sense.
Smart noble goal.
The formula on himself, the extract works but has a horrible side effect. It transforms him into a munch.
It works though!
Hey it works!
That's so funny.
Like, oh time to take my pills to help me with my
uh, sonar. What's the side effect?
Oh, it might become a man bat.
I don't know if the FDA will approve that.
This is an awesome bat. I'm just gonna finish reading the paragraph
cause this guy rocks.
It transforms him into the
monstrous human slash bat hybrid creature.
The side effect makes him so distraught
that it temporarily affects his sanity
He goes on a mad rampage until Batman finds a way to reverse the effects
Later Langstrom makes a concoction again
So the same thing happens a second time I did it again this being a man
Wife a man bad Worse is his wife. Yeah
Honey, you know I'm a man bad at a friend seen Langstrom
You know how friends seen you know how being a man bad is great. We've done nothing but wonders for our relationship What if you were a woman woman bad? Well, you're not gonna believe what happens
Yeah, what coerces her into drinking the serum and she goes through the same drink
It's a suit you drink it. You'd inject it for some reason honey Her into drinking the serum and she goes through this
Terrorize Gotham City until Batman once again restore them to normal
First time like okay that was a
Circumstance like a noble girl, you know curing diabetes. What are you doing? Oh, you just want to have so like bats have what what you know what?
Hey, who am I to spit in the face of science? I guess we know help the blind
Maybe yeah, sure. Okay, let's let's maybe you're doing that for a noble reason You know what? That's wonderful, but there was unfortunately side effects. I like you become a man bad. That's a problem
I guess that's something else you didn't maybe investigate but that's's fine And then you know he sits in for a couple months. Yeah
You know what what if I you know what I was happy here and then I was man bad man
Is that did you at least like like like what's happened? I thought you cured yourself. Did the cure not work
We're not I wanted to go around
So I'm wondering if it was good this time
Yeah did you alter the serum in any way shape or form?
No I just didn't take it right the first time
I drank it this time
Yeah the first time I injected like a doofus
This time I drank it
Should have drunk it
Anyway and then third time
And then seeing man batten and shiba and being like
Langström are you kidding me?
Are you for your what?
Man, here's what happens after that. Yeah
I mean at one point Langstrom takes a serum and retains enough sanity to work for the forces of good
Your scientists you sit in the you tool in a way you're trying to cure diabetes
Maybe you want to make more people like, you know, so.
I don't know where this diabetes is coming from.
This is what everyone's trying to do.
It's a noble cause.
A noble cause of giving us the hearing of back.
So he's like, no, no, no, no, I'm back focused.
And he looks over, he sees like, you know, little serum.
Do not drink man-backed serum.
But I'm so thirsty!
Oh, my bottle of water is in the other room. Little serum. Do not drink. Man that serum. But I'm so thirsty!
Oh, my bottle of water is in the other room.
But it was over there and from my memory it tasted real good though.
What if I diluted a little with water?
Yeah, exactly.
Maybe it'll be good this time. I don't know.
If I made a serum that turned me into a bat monster that was so horrible every time it happened,
I went insane. And also became a bat monster that was so horrible every time it happened I went insane and also became
a bat and became a monstrous batman I would just throw it away.
Pour it down the sink.
I would simply say well that was a mistake.
I'd give it to someone as a prank.
Nice, nice.
I'd try and get like a noble prize somehow.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, bat monsters.
So Kirk and Francine, obviously Kirk keeps drinking the serum
Anyway, they have two kids Becky and Aaron. Oh, yeah, but because of the effects the serum because of the effects of the
calm basically this okay, so
serum fucked up my
Yes, but not in the way
bad Aaron's DNA is Serum fucked up my mom. Yes, and the way
Aaron's DNA is fucked up. Yeah born with a deadly illness
But then is the deadly illness him not being man bad enough
Francine simply just turns him into a young man
They got one fucking solution for every problem. Look, that's so funny.
If you're a hammer, every problem is a nail.
If you have a manbat serum,
every problem is solved by manbat juice.
Like fucking, like a kid's so sick
and your wife's like, I don't want to be the one to save.
But do you reckon, maybe,
if we gave him the man-bat serum?
He'd be better. I reckon certainly be a man-bat. Well, you see the diseases of a man are not the same as
What?
Makes a bat
We made him a man-bat. It'll be fine. Um, but don't bats have rabies and they can transfer that to humans as well. Who can say?
Scientists you are a bad scientist. Oh, I'm an echo locations
I'm an ear doctor
Batman's stupidest villain very possibly. Well, I guess he cured his kid of not being man bad enough
I don't know. I don't know if that counts Well, I guess he cured his kid of not being man bad
I don't know. I don't know if that counts. That's like if I like literally going through his fictional biography It seems like that much like the when you're a hammer ever problem is a nail. Uh
Yeah, so often it's just like man. Are these things happen? Yeah, I shouldn't be man bad or I should be man
But are the only two roots Yeah
And if you don't drink this serum the next time you become man better be permanent
What it's like? No you do
Talia al Ghul
Takes the serum off being bad. No you had enough
Stop it turn stop it. Yeah turns people into man back
Like um, we're taking away your crap like you know your addiction
No, no, no, give me that! Stop! We've had enough!
I need to make an army of man bats.
So how do you reckon they stopped that?
By somehow taking the man bats.
Oh, so man bats, like, the only thing that can kill a man bat is another animal.
Oh, the man bat.
Oh, can I have a guess here?
He takes the man bat serum.
Yeah, correct.
That's how he solves every problem.
He can become man bat because he knows that he'll be the leader of these man bats
And they will like they follow me because he's man bat prime is that is that what's going on?
I don't know why it doesn't say okay
Like what other option does he have I guess yeah, you know stop all these men
It's like well the only thing I can really do is also be a man bad
So I guess I could click it I'll give that a crack okay, and then at one point he Batman's dead
Yeah, yeah
And then Kirk is he's tormented by dreams of becoming the man bad and accidentally killing
Francine's he's like oh god without Batman. I might become man bad again and kill my wife.
Fuck them!
It's a very simple solution, just don't drink that serum.
Now, Francine then goes missing.
Oh no!
She gets kidnapped.
Where'd she go?
Kirk's like, oh god, it's time for me to become man bad.
How could I, a simple man, find my wife
With enhanced sense of
Kill my wife my wife's missing I better become
How long was she missing? First kid kidnapped France and then man bats like I'm back to normal and the phosphorus is like you've had so much syrup you do
need syrup
Serum into a syrup.
I just, it was nice and sweet.
I don't know.
I have this delicious stack of pancakes
and all I have is this man bat syrup.
What other option do I have?
Dr. Phosphorus is like, you got beat up
and now you're back in human form
because you don't need the serum to become man bat anymore.
Yes.
And then it turns out that Dr. Phosphorus
has kidnapped Francine
He's the reason that she's missing which then causes Kirk to turn back into me
And also as an aside for us, you know when you're like, you know, well she
Bad the sex is oh, yeah, but still do that's to be eating pussy. Yeah, so, you know there is that
Makes you think. I know being a man bat makes me into some sort of monster like you know the creature the
terror is Gotham but babe you know you got to admit man bat eats like. My tongue game
is crazy when I'm man bat. You know how much you love. I Don't know what I'm doing when I get down there is yeah
Tired and confused
But you gotta admit you gotta admit the man that knows how to eat you out a pussy
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know fun. Isn't it sounds more more more like an excuse for Kirk to become man bad
for Kirk to become man bad. I guess I've got to.
Babe, you know what's good, I'm just doing a little sip.
I'm doing a sip.
Maybe my face will work this time.
And then shout the window off.
So terrorized Gotham.
I'm gonna kill my man!
Wife just, motherfucker.
I hate man bad dude.
Okay, so I found out where the diabetes thing came from for you
Yeah, it's not I mean this will make like a
sense
Logical step from what we know from his original biography, but cuz yeah in the new 52
They've rebooted it and they did man bat again
Oh nice
Why you know you got it with the classics. In this this time, your
introduction to man bat is the fact
that there's a serum that's on the
loose and gets dumped over Gotham.
Yeah, I'm the
one. But the serum turned into an
airborne virus, which turns
everyone into men bats.
Oh, yeah.
Men bats.
Oh, no.
Turn into minbets.
But then Langstrom pops up later,
Batmobin's like, hey, I found the creator of the serum.
And he's like, it was never meant to turn people into men bats.
Well, yeah, dude.
It was meant to help deaf people.
OK.
OK, not diabetes at all.
Not diabetes at all.
But it did it.
Taking responsibility as the creator of the serum, he uses a sample of the serum Batman has obtained to inject himself.
Why?
How's that taking responsibility?
Hey, I fucked up. I'm gonna become the man bat.
Oh, this creates an antivirus which also spreads through the air.
Langstrom is turned into a man bat, the last remaining man man bad as his antivirus cures the remaining
It was later revealed that Emperor penguin was the one who released the virus
Later made use of the man bat ceremony combined it with the venom drug. Oh sure and one of poison armies plan concoctions
Very it would suck being one of the men bits and being like was really good
My wife so good at it and he's been taken away now. I'm now it's that way I get down there
I'm just kissing good
Man that really helped damn dude in between both holes
You don't want to go anywhere near the sort of action zone. What?
Just hang out with the Goofers.
Plutaurus?
What?
I don't know what that is.
Unless I'm man bad.
Then I know what that is.
Man man knows exactly what to do.
Yeah, OK, so what if Batman?
What if Batman?
Clearly, it's, you know, I'd thought, yeah, it's an addiction, I guess,
because it is clearly very tasty.
Well, how do we combine?
He does become addicted to it at some point as well.
He was addicted from the fucking beginning.
We know!
I just didn't like, it's like, oh no, I'm addicted to the man bat syrup.
I think he's just looking for an excuse.
I think that's what is that realization.
Yeah, we know, dude.
He keeps waking up every day and he's like, I don't remember being man bad last night. Yeah, but into anything fucked up
I call you come man the only way to figure this one out
Yeah, if I'm man bad, I don't remember what I did a very vague psychology class
I took one says like when you're in an altered state of mind or being whatever it's called
It's easier to remember
Yeah, if I returned to that old like if you put down 20 bucks when you're pissed peace blind drunk Yeah, and then you can't find your 20 bucks easiest way to find 20 bucks is to get absolutely blasted
I have to say the floor with your argument is that when you become the man bad again
You're probably gonna do more terrorizing. I will simply just remember
Well Yeah Well
Cycle wakes up the next morning. What did I do?
Honey you have a problem. Yeah, yeah funny intervention
When you become the man bad you hurt well, well you like
Yeah, you've hurt me on an emotional level, but also you are a mood
He's like I'm so worried about that. Yeah, what I should do
But I personally don't have the strength and resolve to stop taking the man back But you know who does have the strength of the resolve
Me from taking the man back
You just clung into the roof clam climbing around
He's got a real problem well, how do we combine, I guess Bruce. Well, let's combine Bruce's origin
Yeah, yeah with man bats instead of
Dedicating his huh? Okay
Pretty hard time. Yeah often is where addiction is bred from sure
Yeah, you don't have to change too much because like he wants to become like cuz bats terrorize him as a youth
Yeah, what a PTSD there? Mm-hmm
And then he's like well
I want to become Batman and I want to be able to like be more like a bat to terrorize him as a youth. A lot of PTSD there. And then he's like, well, I want to become Batman
and I want to be able to be more like a bat
to terrorize the criminal to Gotham.
Oh, I hear on the grapevine that there's a lovely scientist
who's made something to give me some good echolocation.
That will help me be a bat.
Yeah.
Is Batman still scared of bats?
I wonder that sometimes.
Nah.
Like when he sees a bat, he's still like, shit I guess he uses his own. Yeah. But like his whole bat cave is full of bad. He's constantly
shooting himself. He's like, I need to go use the bat computer and he just stands at
the like stairs down. Alfred frightened a fat. I'm so scared. I'm so scared. I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared. I'm so scared. I'm so scared a couple minutes master process. I've explained to you
This is probably gonna keep happening
Alfred I'm so scared to look in the mirror because in the way I am about
right
Master I get it master Bruce said the plan was you become the thing you feel.
Yeah.
So you make Gotham's criminals feel smart move.
Sure.
But the downside is you are scared too.
Also another thing I just thought of is not everyone
is afraid of bats master Bruce.
That's like a you thing.
Pretty rare phobia.
Yeah.
I'm actually don't really am you see I'm not scared. Yeah
Most people are scared of actually spider
Becoming
Logo there could be a ladder. What do we think? I think I'm ladder man
Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! You'll be heights man! What happened to you Alfred? Have you inhaled a joker gas?
Ringo? Alfred! What happened Alfred? What's wrong?
They hit him with Ringo gas.
Did Joker get Ringo gas you're gonna tell me Need help
Fuck me Bruce
Before it's too late! Coo coo ca-choo!
I am the walrus!
I am the walrus!
You don't want to get hit with Beatles gas.
Or Ringo gas.
The joke is evil is trick, Ringo gas.
Yeah dude.
He Ringo gas-style food.
Well yeah, so he could also
because I've got to become more bat-like
and so as opposed to becoming
what's more bat-like than a ninja?
A bat.
To become more like, well, yeah.
But do you think that Bruce Wayne,
taking that serum,
because we know the serum turns you into a man bat.
Yes.
Bruce Wayne is the most brilliant man
who ever existed, he's a genius.
Do you think he'll perfect it,
because the goal is not to be a man bat.
Well, I think what would happen is like, you know
He's a genius. You might like the man. He might go on like a little rampage. Mm-hmm that and then be like, okay
Yeah, bad move. I see what's happened, but I see the benefits then I was terrorizing
Yeah got them, but I need to tone that down a little bit and terrorize the criminals of the trick is you want?
He still needs his public-facing persona as Bruce Wayne.
He can't do that as a man.
So I guess if he has more, so he could perfect it so he's got more control over it.
So that at night he injects it and maybe it lasts like 12 hours or you don't want that.
You don't want to be flying it.
Bruce Wayne millionaire fell out of a plane.
Fell out of an invisible jet? Maybe one of those were in the room? Like Bruce Wayne
Heights man just works a funny outcome there is Heights man
Striking fear to the heart of heart of first floor we do ground floor crime
Scared of the second story. Yeah, I've been to a bank that's high up
You're about to be
It's got like stilts that make him just like rocket
High up doesn't feel very good. Yeah,, yeah, I'm more scared of heights I'm fine with.
Sorry height, man, I'm actually scared of spiders.
Well, thanks for apologizing.
Yeah, sorry buddy.
Are you scared of bats?
No.
Do you know anyone who is?
No, it's a weird argument.
Yeah, I think Bruce Wayne I read in the papers once,
but honestly, it's a very rare phobia
Yeah, it's really cool being up high height man. This is nice. You can see so much Oh the river!
He just straight drops you
AHH!
Hi man why are we having a conversation?
Oh if you're not scared of heights you will now
Scared of dying?
Yeah
Well I guess but are we all?
Yeah
I think that I would figure out that Bruce Wayne was Batman pretty quickly just in the sense that Batman didn't rough up Bruce Wayne
Yeah, that's what?
Cuz you could you did he what okay Bruce Wayne you're living in Gotham
Yeah, and you're like Bruce Batman is beating up these criminals, but he's not going for this sack of shit
It's Bruce Wayne done. He's not really a criminal isn't the idea that Bruce Wayne like he doesn't seem like a bad guy
He just seems like he's negligent. It's like a party boy. Yeah, isn't it? It's like punching a party boy
Yeah, be like height man. Why would you do?
Precious billionaire, I think you meant to like look at him and be like wow he squandered his family's fortune
He's living in like, you know the goth. Yeah. Yeah, he's living in Gotham Castle or whatever and it's all falling apart
Is there a real guy that Bruce Wayne's simulator?
I'm trying to think not really like as in like a real-life millionaire that like
There's a lot of well, there's a few billionaires out there. Yeah, but like okay. Well, what about this?
Like is the creator of Facebook?
Zuckerberg, oh, no, sorry myspace. Yes creator of mySpace. He sold MySpace and now he just goes and surfs and stuff.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you think if like someone killed him, people would be happy?
Yeah, cause like- Okay, fair enough.
At that point, like at one point in time, it's like, well yeah, he's not in control of Wayne tech or whatever.
Yeah. Wayne cool?
Wayne industries? Wayne industries? It's not Bruce cool. No, it's Wayne- Wayne tech? Wayne tech or whatever yeah Wayne cool what Wayne industry?
Not Bruce cool. No, it's Wayne Wayne Wayne
Maybe
Wayne cool Wayne
Bruce ink Batman
Sad he didn't name it like Bruce something. Yeah, absolutely. It rolls off your tongue.
Yeah, yeah. Bruce Incorporated. I'm working for Bruce Tech. Bruce Pty Ltd.
Bruce Corp. Yeah, I guess. It's Wayne Enterprises. Oh yeah, we're stupid. Yeah, we're dumb.
Dom Guys. Dom Enterprises. What about you? Bruce Enterprises. Um, he's like, he doesn't own Bruce Enterprises now does he?
No, he's on the board though. He has the majority share, doesn't own Bruce Enterprises now does he? No he's on the board though.
He has the majority share doesn't he?
When he starts, well it depends really I guess.
I mean in the Nolan trilogy he does.
At the start he doesn't doesn't he?
Or is he getting his ass, or is he basically like not really there?
Well yeah, cause I think again,
the persona he wants to portray is like
it couldn't be him because he doesn't even care about his legacy.
He's just a guy who goes and you know he was just a piece on boats
He owns Wayne Enterprises, but the head of the board is Lucius Fox. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so he's uh yeah
Yeah, what about it's not right at someone else then it eventually becomes
Yes, yeah, yeah could not tie that about if the in crime alley
One alley when Joe chill shot Instead of shooting his parents. I guess he shoots the parents too and then he shoots the boy with well a man bat gun
Okay, I was gonna say if at that moment in time that little Bruce Wayne he becomes a man bat well Joe chill is freaking out
Shooting that weird bat monster. It just happens. That's when it happened
Okay, so like he shoots the parents and then like,
you know, he's like, well, I know witnesses
and he shoots the kid,
but it hits him in just the right moment.
It hits him in the...
Where it becomes, activates his man bat gene.
Yeah, he hits the exact spot on a human being's body
that bursts the bat gland.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
His body is flooded with bat pheromones
and he becomes the, well, at that point, the boy bat, I gland. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. His body is flooded with bat pheromones and he becomes the, well at that point,
the boy bat, I suppose.
Yeah.
Now, would Alfred still look after the boy bat?
Well, does boy bat turn back into like,
I guess boy, boy?
Or is he still, is he a boy bat all the time?
Well, maybe the gland, the pheromones work like the serum
where eventually after 12 hours it relaxes. Oh, you know, like a, is it a werewolf situation like or visit a night situation where it's like it's the full moon
Every
Become boy boy becomes boy bad. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah by that point
Yeah, I guess yeah, I would would look after him and then you know
I guess it would be a couple of months before you might figure out that
Wait a second that boy back that has been terrorizing Gotham is my boy boy
Boy boy is this true?
Master Elphred! I don't know Master Elphred!
I always told you Master Bruce but that's mine!
Master Elphred every full moon I hide
I don't know what's happening I get weird dreams
But I love it!
I have an idea that I really like doing
Yeah come on for the Elphred
I'm gonna make a serum
And I'm gonna drink that serum
We're not gonna come to Batboy
He's picked up Elphred's accent
I guess it makes sense
Yeah, yeah, he kinda like
Master Bruce
I'm very happy to hear that
I'm happy that you're happy
considering your parents are dead
Your parents are dead
You got a blogging guy, Mrs. Doubtfire
Your parents are dead
He got hit by Mrs. Doubtfire gas
Hello Hello Your parents are dead and it's horrible! He got hit by Mrs. Downfire Gas Hello!
Hello!
Hello!
Mrs. Downfire Gas! Choke on you psychopath!
All of Gotham
Hello!
Hello Batman!
Where are me children? I'm the nanny!
You're not! You're the man!
Me tits are on fire!
Hello!
Jack in the original episode had that roof in it?
I'm trying to figure out how he gets a $1600 milkshake.
Well, telling I remembered about the original episode that is worth revisiting.
Why do you reckon we're going to touch on what would happen if we swapped them?
Well, who can say if we ever will? But I think in that episode we also did the opposite. Ah
And Bat was Batman
How we did that I couldn't say
As if Langstrom became Batman or if a bat took a serum and became a man
I know what I prefer to explore if a bat took a serum and became a man
When I prefer to explore if a bat is yeah became a man
Friends like around him being like dude you gotta stop keep becoming a man It feels like a bad addiction man. Yeah, I know you love it if a bat became a man like
Bats don't know what the fuck is going
Mean like they know what what's going on for a bat. Yeah, but if a bat became a man
I mean we know that it can't fly. I think that's just a dead man
If you shot Jackson with a dog gas, yeah
But if you said okay you shoot Jackson with dog gas yeah, and then he goes off to play with other dogs
Yeah, what are you thinking? I'm not thinking anything gas. Yeah, and then he goes off to play with other dogs. Yeah
What are you thinking? I'm not thinking anything good. Well, is he
What kind of dog yeah all good questions, yeah, give me any dog
All right. I was thinking for some reason I'm always like golden retriever. Yeah, I've become a golden retriever
Yeah, just becomes regular dog. Can't I ever have I retained my sentience? We don't know. Let me like we just shoot you with dog gas
And then hard to tell yeah, yeah
Yeah, you can't talk you're not doing anything to indicate anything that a dog wouldn't do okay
Yeah, then you just turn around and then you cross the road
Well, I was already doing Jackson
Don't get hit by a boss
Immediately then there's a dog park across the road and he's chasing all the dogs around.
Jack, bark once if you're still you, twice if you're not.
He's gone, he's gone.
He's chasing it.
He's howling and growling. Is that really not a useful ending?
Is he answering or is he having fun?
Yeah, and I'd be watching that and being like Does he know what he's doing?
Cause that upsets me if he does
If I shot you with a dog gas
and then you immediately just tried to do dog stuff
I'd be like, you're a guy, stop doing that
But then what if he turns back and he's like
I don't know what happened
What was that dude? I'm missing a lot of time
Is it got anything to do with the gas?
You shot me with it
I don't know, let's find out. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Cognizant mm-hmm another something else the problem is we said me becoming a dog
Yeah, you know my sapiens yeah has been reduced to a dog sapien yeah, but a bat becoming a man
He that's that's getting thoughts that it never have had before correct again same shooting a dog with a man gun
Yeah, exactly that dog doesn't it knows what it's a kill this dog, but I actually learned it with a man bullet damn
dog doesn't it knows kill this dog but actually learned it with a man bullet damn dude I got stuff doing that his back just like oh no oh my god I call him to be in alive fuckhead
I wanted to kill you I was trying to shoot a bat with a gun oh now I've made you a man
I wouldn't even speak yeah it would just start screeching but because it's got like vocal cords it might make a sound that
ooooh what would that-
It shreds its throat and it throws up blood and it dies.
Wow.
Tries to flee.
I shouldn't have done that.
Okay cause bats can't run.
That's true.
So well it would try-
We've given it legs.
It would try and move like a bat does which would include like if it putting his hands down which are like a bats wings and then kind of crawl
It's kind of fucking awful to watch I
Has gone to
What if when Langstrom took when sorry Bruce Wayne takes or Langstrom takes the serum. He becomes
Bruce Wayne as a boy
This is sounding familiar
We did I think maybe
Makes him Bruce Wayne Wayne but as a boy?
Yeah, he takes a serum and then he becomes Bruce Wayne as a little boy just after his
parents have been shot.
Well, I was going to say, what happens to a Bruce Wayne without a Joe Geel to kill their
parents?
Well, he grows up rich and spoiled.
And becomes a prick, no doubt.
No doubt that boy's a prick.
You think Richie Rich is growing up normal style?
Richie Rich is the up normal in the world
Change the name of his comic yeah, we're
You hate this boy yeah
Do you think that maybe this is something we talked about in the original?
Yeah, but what do you do with that serum you've developed a suit
Do you give it to your wife like so like this serum that makes me a rich?
There was serum that makes anyone who takes it a rich little boy. Yeah. Yeah rich little boy. You're rich
Yeah, you don't become rich get money in the bank account. You were rich little boy
You think you are a little boy who just thinks he's rich.
Yeah.
And that my parents might be just have been shocked.
Well, the trick is like there's no...
Okay.
The problem with the serum though is because immediately you want to use this as like a
hey, take a walk a mile in someone else's shoes.
But because they don't remember, there's no lessons to be learned.
The joke is just hit someone like to hit your douche with the John Wayne
Cancer from filming a movie. I'm a piece of shit I
Tell you what of all the accents we've done today, that's by far the worst
By far the least accurate
Yeah, I think mrs. Daphne Always fun to do yeah, I guess what I would how I would market that telling you into a little boy
Yeah, we'll be I guess working with people who have slightly like you have trauma
Yeah, like less trauma because then it kind of is the idea of like yeah
I just said that is John Wayne
Thinking about John Wayne I was gonna be tempted to use it to teach people
You don't remember shit, but it's good while it happens, right?
Well, actually well, yeah, cuz he has some yes dreams of becoming man bad
So there is like a lingering effect there. Yeah, he doesn't remember being me. I remember something. Yeah
I keep having dreams of a little boy. I'm gonna kill my wife
Where's that coming from I need to go to a doctor
My wife's been kidnapped Wow time to turn into a little rich boy. So yeah
You do yep the royal you okay and the royal accomplice. Yeah
Go into a casino. Uh-huh. Yeah. I'm there walk through you're both of age
They let me in they let you in they let the accomplice in you both go to the bathroom
You shoot the accomplice with the Bruce Wayne gun. Okay, okay. You got a little boy in the casino. Yeah pickpocket height
Okay, you use a little boy
Pickpocket people at the casino. Yeah, I kick out a little boy
They're not gonna check the little boys pockets and they're gonna go who's this little boy and he'll be like my parents are dead
Yeah, my parents just die. Yeah quick questions one was Bruce Wayne at that point a good pickpocketer to he's currently grieving his parents
Just being shot. Yeah, he's now in a casino
You're holding
Gone
No You're holding a gun No, it's a scam little boy. We don't know go pickpockets. What's happening your parents will be fine. I just need 10 diamonds
Well your parents didn't die as well, okay, you just think they did yeah get out Wayne's parents are dead is your not Bruce Wayne if is Bruce Wayne real
Yeah, what do you mean is Bruce like in this scenario when we could become baby Bruce Wayne?
Yeah, no, I mean happening in the back is exactly like if
Happening in the code in the barbarian
When Kirk Langstrom develops the baby Bruce Wayne gun. Yeah. Okay. It's as it does.
Batman exists at the time. So you could shoot Batman with the gun and make him relive his trauma.
Yes. Funny. Because you don't know that that is Batman. And that's also funny. You shoot him with the gun.
He says, how do you know? You go, how do you know what? Well, no, you shoot him with the gun.
He's like, I'm Bruce Wayne and my parents are dying. And then he reverts back to Batman and he's like, I have no memory of this.
What just happened?
Because maybe Bruce Wayne that you shoot with the Bruce Wayne gun doesn't know that he grows
up to be a Batman.
He becomes less...
All you're doing is that the audience that knows this goes, huh, that's it.
But it's the perfect way to kill Batman.
Well it's the perfect way...
Because a child is weaker than
Yeah, you shoot him or you push him off the top of a building yeah
Yeah, but Batman's ready for it, baby Bruce Wayne isn't no yeah, and then when he dies he reverts back to Batman
Yeah, you go. I killed Batman you shoot
You're taking him up to the height you kick him off. Yeah, like how how ironic that height man is killed by
Another death by height I like that the swapping the man bat serum into Bruce Wayne serum only started because you were like hey
Here's a bit. I remember from the podcast. I think I don't think it
Panned out like that in the original episode. Yeah say honestly so back to so we haven't even really touched on the
Wayne yeah became man back. Mm-hmm would that be well? That's way scarier
Yeah, I reckon that this is probably the in fact, I'm fairly certain. This is the course we went down originally
Yeah, when he cut through all of the silly nonsense aside
Yeah, by having Bruce Wayne become Batman like that's a guy in a suit scary, but you're like, that's a man
Yeah, when it becomes man bad if you're like fucking two-faced trying to flip a coin and then all of a sudden the screeching
Yeah, choose your arm man bats don't have morals. Yeah, you know what I mean?
I think a man bat would honestly scare the gimmicks out of
With man bad or Bruce becoming man bad, yeah, is he going after just like like Gotham?
What does he still have his sense of like I want to I want to fight criminals
That's a great question
Well, if that transcends into man bat then I think you got a more effective Batman is if Batman's like I don't kill
Manbat will like I don't have such a you know, I yeah
I don't have this moral proclivity. I hate the joke. Yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna eat the Joker's face. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
Yeah, I'm gonna suck his blood. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I guess also
He probably would have like man that would have probably got rid of some of the Robins. Yeah, Jason Todd was stealing
The hubcaps. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So like I guess if he was man bad at the time, that's like an aunt little boy
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. I love this version of Batman
Who is man bat and still has a car?
He's gonna drive some you gotta drive
I like the idea of Jason Todd being like I'm gonna steal the wheels off the car of the person that is a bat
Well, you are fearless he is a monster yeah, but he's a cool car
I guess he wouldn't develop a lot of those little gadgets. He wouldn't need him need to yeah, you can flap his wings and absolutely
No cape. Okay, we imagining that this version of Batman or Bruce Wayne
He he like is it like Kirk Langstrom or he doesn't remember what happened
Is he like the most effective way to fight crime? Yeah is to turn myself into a monster
Yeah, I'm loose on the citizens of Gotham?
Every morning he wakes up, oh Alfred, oh what I did
Hand me the paper and it says, thousands dead in another Batman massacre
Was that me? Did I do that?
Alfred, please tell me there's another man
Alfred, Alfred, they were all bad guys right?
Master Wayne, it was sort of a gala for charity
Master Wayne, who's he?
It was like an evil gala, yeah
For an evil charity
For the evil charity, right?
For giving children cancer, right?
Well that would be a charity master way
Well if you think that the cure for children's cancer is evil master way
Well I wish you had told me that
What was the cure? Was the cure also maybe killing other children?
No they were raising money for not anymore
Well they actually had the cure master way
Oh they were raising money money and money is the root
of all evil. They're celebrating the cure master way, but you broke it and you drank
it in front of everyone and then killed the scientist. You made it. It sort of seems like
it went beyond your typical sort of, you know, kind of mad animal rage. You felt very direct.
And then you flew to the Neodran's Cheers Hospital
and you shit on the roof.
Yeah, dunno what that's about.
Did I say anything boring yet?
No, you just got squished at the moon.
Squished at the moon, yeah.
Like an animal, so, bad luck next time.
Is there any footage of it?
Do I look cool?
No!
You're sort of squatting over the top of the hospital
If you look here you can see your cake in children's blood!
No, good luck!
They're calling for your death!
But that's alright Master Wayne, never give up!
Never give up, you've just just gotta keep stiff up a lip.
Take him down to the Batcave and there's just nothing in it.
It's just a cave that he can just screech around in.
Hang upside down and just pond his little bat thoughts.
Al for being like, is this?
At what point do I need to pull out of this?
Hello, the government.
I used to work for you, yeah? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
That's so tragic that Alfred is trying to explain that he knows who the man bad is.
It just so happens he got hit with the Austin Powers gas at the same time.
That's so sad.
Please don't call this number again, sir.
No! That's not very shagadelic!
This does not make me horny, baby! No!
A Batman in the background just tearing apart a child
I tried baby yeah
I think I lost my mojo
I think I lost my mojo
but yeah
at one point there's a yeah
alpha pennyworth say hey
nothing good's coming from this
night 3
yeah
cause the first night you go I raised the little boy he's got a good hand on his shoulders
it's just a curse it's a curse is easy every full moon he turns into a little werewolf
all right change things I can't okay don't worry when I have the serum in me, I'm in control. And then he goes out there and...
You've killed a lot of people. How in control are you, Master Bruce?
I'm still figuring it out.
I'm calibrating, Alfred.
When I say in control, I mean it's just got my natural sense of justice.
Right?
I don't think that's true.
Children are born with original sin.
Oh, right? I did not raise you Catholic!
Who?
Is that a boy?
That's what the baptism cures, I'm pretty sure!
Baptism, you say?
Pretty sure!
Who baptised you?
Who baptised you?
God baptised you!
Oh no, Boy Boy's gone insane!
I think having his parents killed really changed how that boy... No Joke as a joke. He's not gas me gas
Gas hanging out with me That's the same pun! That's the same basic pun! Enjoy being Catholic, Badman! No!
Fucking Catholic!
You without sin can't claim the first stardom, whatever!
Ha ha!
He doesn't, he's a gas man, he doesn't have to be Catholic.
That's what the gas is for.
That is what the gas is for.
The gas man, he's not half on his own supply.
No, well that's a real risk for gas man.
You know, absolutely.
I think
Batman's better off staying as Batman and not
man bad. It doesn't appear that anything
good comes from being a man bad.
Cause he's not in control.
That's really the key
element there. You're not in control.
And I feel
I feel that that's something we maybe didn't discover
I'm not sure last night Batman has a lot of ego
Yeah, and maybe I also don't feel that Bruce has enough ego. Maybe the first night my natural justice
Yes, like it'll override the man. He didn't know
Hmm, maybe lock me in a cage for a bit. Yeah. Alfred, you may have to kill me
with some kind of bat killing going.
Yeah.
Or like I'll figure it out.
Lock me in the cage.
Rat poison?
Rat poison?
That kill a bat?
I'm sure.
A bat's just a flying rat.
Yeah, that's so true.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, yeah.
More people are scared of rats than bats, I would say.
Yeah.
But I think if I came face to face with a bat,
I'd be more scared of a bat than a rat. Rat? wait depends. What's happening? Give me the scenario of each okay?
The bat you're in a cave, okay?
Oh, no, maybe better you've gone to get something out of a shed
Oh, and you open the doors dark inside the thing you needs up the back say it's a shovel
Yep, you go you're moving stuff to get out of the way you pick up the shovel yeah
And by doing so you disturb a clutch of bats and they go
Yeah, give it one give me one just give it one one bad one bad flies
Yeah, that's why you're facing the whole shit, and then yep, and then the alternative same exact situation
But when you pick up the shovel, it's a rat. There's a rat on it. I'm most good the bat
I'm most scared of the rat not depends on where on the shovel the rat's a rat on it. I'm more scared of the bat. I'm more scared of the rat. Nah, that will fly.
Depends on where on the shovel the rat is.
No, but also rats are...
Bats will avoid you, a rat's not necessarily...
Not necessarily.
A rat is a gamble, yeah.
Bat will give me, depending where I am, maybe rabies.
Mmm, true, true, true.
Rats love to run up clothing.
Yeah, I know, but a rat can fly.
A rat can go inside your pants and bite your balls.
Yeah, a rat could go inside your arsehole.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and then out your balls. Yeah, right could go inside your asshole. Yeah. Yeah, and then out your man
Yeah, I look see for me. I'm like a bat. I'm scared. It'll fly at me. I'm freaking out
I don't know what's gonna happen with a rat. I grabbed the trouble in front of hit it
Oh, I see you don't try and hit the bat. No, I'm scared cuz flying is flappy. Yeah, I don't expect a flappy bat
I've been face to face with both and that's definitely what back the bat shit on his dick
Okay, you don't know this story yeah, like well again you wouldn't I guess you know wasn't it was it attacking you yeah
No, it wasn't like face. Yeah. Yeah
I think that's also like because there's sometimes in areas where there's bats. Yeah
Like like like the flying office kind of bat or like a small kind of bat
So I'm thinking like the classic like you know the the like I don't know if we do we have those kind of bad
Yeah, well because I was thinking like you know those flying foxes that we have they can be they're huge
I'm thinking like little tiny like that's attitude is usually like oh fuck a guy
Yeah, yeah
Panicking and that makes me pan a ride whereas a rat will have like intent to murder me
So I want to murder it first. Yeah, I've the only time I've ever come face to face with a bat
I couldn't get it out of my house. Yeah, it was hiding behind a painting. I was trying to get it out with a broom
Yeah, yeah, it wouldn't go behind the painting just went
But what do you mean went behind?
Where the little bat painting is hooked on the little hook? Yeah, that was behind there, and I was poking it with a broom
Yeah, it was a little bat was very cute. I actually think bats are pretty adorable
I think the little ones with the the wretched faces and sort of more cute than the flying foxes
Yeah, cuz a flying fox. I guess just a fox
You can get that face. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah flying fox to me kind of looks basically like, you know a dog with wings
You can get a dog dogs everywhere
That lost dog. Yeah, that was mine. Yeah
You found it sick
Looking for that. No you you know what you you have it when the moment it's out of my hands. It's out of my yeah
Yeah, yeah, I'm going to the pound and claiming that every lost dog is yours
Yeah, exactly give them to you go to the bow to say all of these dogs I lost them from my house
Yeah, oh my god. Thank God you found oh my god. Thank God you're here
Okay, that's great. Just get chuck them in the car
Don't worry about boxes or whatever
Shovel them in about 15 dogs
I have a big
House I got a big house
I didn't give him any names that sound like real names
Grogs, Skunk, Becks
Dada, Fep
Yeah
Blaf, Runk
Yeah, yeah, yeah, good dogs now
All good names for dogs
I mean, far be it for me to call you a liar, sir, but they don't seem to be reacting to those names
Yeah, Farby, how fucking dare you call me a liar
Yeah, they're shy Yeah, yeah They haven't seen me in a long time. Yeah, okay, just a little bit disobedient now. What did you do to them?
Yeah, what have you been calling him? Mm-hmm Rover? That's not his name. That's blessed
Blast blast
So the tax is rovo that's what we did make. Yeah, the tag that you put on it. Come here blasts. No, that's not
I'm gonna call this phone number. It's on this tag. Yeah. Yeah, dude
Yeah
Why are you waiting till now ring that number is a really shit whether that's my dog or not and it is
Crazy, that's insane. Why did you not rig it there? What the hell?
I don't think you should get a dog that has a collar.
I don't think that...
Is that how a pound works?
Yeah!
I don't think you work here!
Give me those dogs!
Oh fuck!
This scenario became strange.
Became a strange situation.
Just imagine that like all the buildings, like all the walls, like sort of fall down like they're made from like plywood
Was actually Joel's dog thievery I steal dogs I don't have a second step
I went to a pound and said all the dogs were mine
Use that same trick on I didn't know what to do. So I just started my own band. And I got a bunch of, you know, I don't know how to flip a dog. Okay.
Yeah. I don't know what dogs are valuable. Wiley coyote. $500 in the hole.
Did a bunch of painting. I did that. He made like sets that made it look like a pound.
Yeah. I'm embarrassed. I really need that $500. What do you do with the dog?
Rent's coming up. I can't pay rent with his embarrassed. I really need that $500. Yeah, we do with the dog that's coming up
I can't pay rent with his dog. I tried. How do you know what how much
Jobs don't get money. Yeah, I found out the hard way and also they need to be trained
Yeah, and you know, you got a feeder dog 15 dogs. Yeah
Don't forage that well, that's crazy to me. They're also
Yeah, you don't want these dogs I don't know why Dogs don't forage that well. That's crazy to me. They're also hungry. Yeah, that's sick. You sure you don't want these dogs?
I don't know why he stopped you from having them.
Yeah, you can take them off my hands.
Please.
You know, I was having Grog or whatever.
Yeah, Grog loves you dude.
Fep, that's your problem dude.
Fep, now idiot.
No refunds.
No refunds.
He runs away.
Yeah.
Anyway, Batman Became Man-Bat Gotham, worst place. I'll say it.
I'm not even scared to say it.
I think you're right because you know- Everyone's fearing like Manbat, but not just criminals.
No, just everyone. You're not gonna get Goodsburg like, oh no, the bat. You're gonna get like children.
Oh no, the bat! Oh my god, the bat!
It'll just be like, hey everyone, citywide curfew. The moment it gets dark stay inside till we shoot and kill the man bad
I guess um you could like make a good killing with like you installing bars on people
So you're imagining Bruce Wayne. Oh, no no I'm I'm like an opportunist. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and I'm like
Gotham my god my beautiful town that I love
Yeah, Gotham is being terrorized by some sort of monstrous creature. Yeah, and like sure we've got the curfew happening
But it still smashes through
It seems to only target hospital the week
It seems to only target hospitals. The weak and the unwelcome.
Targeting the weak and the unwelcome firm.
So yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maybe I just start a contracting business
where we install like iron bars
to protect sick children.
In fact, maybe I'll do something
that's a pretty noble idea.
Until he charges out the nose for it.
That's the thing.
Maybe we'll just do it at cost
or a little bit more
So I Google some some I'll hundred ten dollars per bar. Yeah smart nice
I love my joker in this universe because like you can't you know
He can't pull the like where are two sides of the same coin man bat you love that man bat and I love gas
Two sides of the same coin man bat
Bat and gas.
Joker's no joker, he's gas man in this universe.
As man bat screeches and tries to bite his face.
It's a tale as old as time, man bat.
The bat and the gas.
REE REE REE REE
Exactly.
We're both wearing masks.
Mine's a gas mask
to protect me from my gas.
Well you're not.
And yours is a bat mask.
Oh.
Are you just a
beast? I'm a man who made
a gas that makes you sound like Ringo
Star. And yours I'm kind of who made a gasp that makes you sound like Ringo Starr
I thought you were a man
Kind of like a Sasquatch
Yeah, like almost like a literary
This is like talking to a dog right now you
You guys I need to leave I should go see Bane.
He loves gas.
Do you think if you
gasped Manbat with the same Mrs. Doubtfire
gas, he would get affected by it?
Ah ha!
Yeah, I think he would screech the hell out of you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm glad that Gasman can affect him.
Yeah, like a Manbat thinks way well, but I'm glad gas man can affect. Yeah, I think like yeah like a man bat thinks
It's mrs. Doubtfire. Yeah, there's a lot of layers
It's a man who's become a bat who thinks that he's a man impersonating a nanny
Yeah, to get close to his children. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, worse thing could be to hit a man bat with a Bruce Wayne
Whoa a man who with a Bruce Wayne yeah dude whoa a man who did a man's trauma has
become a man bad yeah and then it turns back into him as a little boy
experiencing the trauma yeah he won't know any of it but us as the reader will
be like this comic sucks comic books no more And then it's a shot of us walking away
from a comic book in the bin.
Yeah, we're like, huh, I guess comic books were never good.
Yeah.
That's an important lesson for everyone
to take away from today.
Absolutely, dude.
Comic books, they were never good.
And Jackson, how are you feeling about revisiting
your favorite episode of all time?
I think, well, I think it's just an episode that need,
I wouldn't say it's my favorite episode of all time.
If it was his favorite, it wouldn't be needed to be revisited. Exactly. Sorry, your my favorite episode of all time If it was his favorite it wouldn't be needed to be your second favorite episode of all time
