Mistletoe can be deadly if you eat it. But this podcast can be deadlier if you don't listen! This week we are tracking down wannabe crime fighters who use their wealth and a little bit of DNA evidence to piece together missing persons and cold case murders. Is it very nice of them, or just another sign that the society we've built is on the rocks? It's almost like we're split into two...
Just like Batman! And Catwoman! So, with the help of Tim Burton and a lot of Danny DeVito green drool, we explore Batman Returns and what that film tells us about vigilantes, family matching, and yes, bat-branded CD players. And oh yeah, we offer up a quiz on some of the weird Batman villains from film, comics, and TV.
