    Out of the Past & Speak No Evil

    Welcome, Bat-fans, to another thrilling episode of The BATTASS Podcast! Today, your hosts, Clay McCormack and Sean Murphy, are diving into the world of Batman Beyond with two electrifying episodes: Out of the Past and Speak No Evil. But before we jump into the Bat-action, let me share a little frustration from my day job as a custodian at the zoo. You see, those cheeky monkeys have been throwing poop at me non-stop, and I swear they’re doing it on purpose now! Every time I turn around, SPLAT! It’s like they’ve made it their mission to drive me bananas. But enough about my primate problems—let’s get to the Gotham goodness!

    Per DCAU Wiki:

    "Out of the Past" is the fifth episode of the third season of Batman Beyond. It initially aired on October 21, 2000. At a time when Bruce Wayne is feeling his age, a woman from his past appears and offers him the chance to regain his youth. It’s the return of Talia al Ghul, but with a shocking twist!

    "Speak No Evil" is the sixth episode of the third season of Batman Beyond. It depicts the appearance of an intelligent gorilla, Fingers, in Gotham City. When a roaming gorilla sends people into a panic, Batman quickly comes to the rescue but notes that the gorilla's much more intelligent than it should be, including the ability to speak English. After learning that the Gorilla is simply trying to find the man who kidnapped his mother so that he can get her back, Batman agrees to help him track down the poacher.

    So, while I’m busy dodging monkey missiles at the zoo, Clay and Sean are here to provide you with insightful analysis and compelling discussions about Batman Beyond. Grab your headphones, settle in, and join us for another incredible episode of The BATTASS Podcast. Let’s get Batty!

    Inqueling & Big Time

    Hey, BATTASS fans! Welcome back to another riveting episode of The BATTASS Podcast with your trusty hosts, Clay McCormack and Sean Murphy. Before we dive into the Bat-action, I've got a bit of a bone to pick. So, I recently went on this trip, thinking I'd be saving adorable, oil-covered animals- cute, fuzzy ones. But instead, I spent three grueling days scrubbing oil off rocks. Yeah, rocks. And let me tell you, I'm seriously considering filing a false advertising lawsuit against that tourism company. Talk about a bait and switch!

    Per DCAU Wiki:

    "Inqueling" is the third episode of the third season of Batman Beyond. It depicts the reappearance of Inque. After resurfacing from her last bout with Batman, Inque continues her work sabotaging projects for big businesses. After succeeding in a job, she is betrayed by her employer and gravely wounded. To escape capture and eventual death, she goes to the one person she thinks she can trust: her daughter.

    "Big Time" is the fourth episode of the third season of Batman Beyond. It depicts the first appearance of the villain Big Time. An old friend of Terry's, Charlie "Big Time" Bigelow, is released from prison and meets up with him. Remembering that both he and Charlie were arrested for the same crime and that his own sentence was short due only to his age, Terry feels he owes his friend. Terry manages to get Charlie a job at Wayne-Powers. Meanwhile, a rival company, Agrichem, is sending out hired thugs to capture a sample of the growth hormone, Cerestone. Things get even worse when Charlie reveals his true nature and is bathed in the chemical himself.

    So, while I was busy contemplating a lawsuit and scrubbing rocks, Clay and Sean dug into Batman Beyond's heart. Join us for a podcast filled with deep dives, compelling discussions, and a whole lot of Bat-love. Grab your headphones, settle in, and let's get Batty with The BATTASS Podcast!

    King's Ransom & Untouchable

    Hear ye, hear ye! Gather 'round, noble Bat-fans, for a most splendid announcement! I, the great Henry VIII, King of England, am pleased to relay that The BATTASS Podcast hath returned in triumph, hosted by the illustrious Clay McCormack and the venerable Sean Murphy! Today, they shall discourse upon the first two episodes of... season three, methinks. Or is it the tale of my third wife? No matter!

    In "King's Ransom," we find our Dark Knight of the future embroiled in a royal escapade of peril and intrigue. Then, in "Untouchable," our valiant hero faces a foe more elusive than the whispers of courtly gossip. Verily, 'tis a feast for thine ears!

    From DCAU Wiki:

    "King's Ransom" is the third season premiere of Batman Beyond. It depicts the last appearance of the Royal Flush Gang and Paxton Powers. After a job to steal art for Paxton Powers goes sour, King decides to kidnap Powers for ransom.

    "Untouchable" is the second episode of the third season of Batman Beyond. It depicts the appearance of the Repeller. A strange villain appears in Gotham stealing isotopes from various locations. Batman is instantly after him but discovers that the man is surrounded by a force field that nothing can penetrate. Meanwhile, Terry finds a new interest in Irene, a girl with an immune deficiency and therefore has to wear a belt projecting a field very much like the Repeller's.\

    But wait! Our noble hosts shall also entertain queries from their devoted listeners, discussing the fine details and mysteries of the episodes. So don thy finest garb and prepare to be regaled with tales of Gotham's finest, seasoned with wit and wisdom. Whether 'tis the third season or the third bride, The BATTASS Podcast is sure to delight all who lend an ear. Huzzah!
