Bat Minute

We’re back as Bruce and Alfred have the closest these two probably ever get to a back-slapping hug. Aww. Dick bursts in and ruins the moment but he’s got good cause to be fair - FREEZE HAS ESCAPED! He’s heard the news… somehow. Gordon has the evidence - some of the BEST surveillance camera footage the world has ever known! Returning to crack this case once again like only she can is the magnificen...

Zany meets... zany? No, no, NO!

The security guards break in - they’re gonna grab Bane! RUN, MY PRETTY! FLY! THEY'RE GOING TO SHOOT! Bruce asks “Alfred, are you well?”. A weird question considering we know that he’s not, but okay. He isn't going to let the mask slip, however - he's a gent, after all. Joining the investigation this week is our resident Bat Minute Hall of Famer - it's none other than the marvellous mythology maest...

DO NOT FORGET MY SOAP! DO NOT FORGET MY WOOD!

Freeze has the solution to his power problem - he needs his diamonds! They power the suit, remember. A slightly costly fuel this, man, but okay. Anyway, time for an exit strategy... Ivy slaps Bane on the chest to level him up and off he stomps to pound a hole in the wall… but he fails. REINFORCED STEEL, NOT GOOD! Maybe take advantage of the NON-winterized pipes? Just don't mention a wife! Returnin...

Ivy proposes! A pairing, that is. Meanwhile, Bane sprints through the corridors with Freeze’s suit in a trolley. Countless ineffectual guards just bounce off him like wrestling referees trying to stop a fight. A LAUNDRY SERVICE THAT DELIVERS! WOW! But for a 50" waist?!?!? Returning to the investigation is the chaplain of the Movies by Mintues podcast community - it's Father David Mowry! Completing...

Ivy thinks that men are rather absurd creatures. Is she wrong? She IS to die for, after all! The Riddler and Two-Face make a return to the franchise! IN A WAY?!?!? Impressive. Most impressive... Joining the investigation in divine style is none other than Father David Mowry! Backing him up in this Next Scene are the familial duo of Sean and Brian German! The next episode follows on Wednesday. Same...

Freeze continues his little craft lesson. Following a YouTube tutorial or something I guess, 'The Lighthouse' style. Our Icehead has a visitor... sister? SISTER?!?!? Regardless, he's feeling blue no more, that's for sure... and these guards are about to feel the heat! Taking a final crack at this case are Duncan Shields and Curtis Bloes! There's no leaders here, listeners... so shut up and do what...

Barbara continues to be a little ignorant of Dick’s distress... but she drops a bombshell of her own - her own distress, her own pain. Alfred is sick and it's no bull - Bruce can tell. After pondering this sad moment we then cut back to Arkham and Mr Freeze appears to be whittling some kind of a… doll? A human? COULD IT BE A NEW WIFE?!?!? It’s just you and me now, chunk of ice. Back in action toda...

Dick wants to know how long Barb has been racing. She ain’t no noob, man... but you wouldn't understand! Things get a little 'Depeche Mode' as our Oxbridge lass makes this all about a 'Master and Servant'! Joining the investigation this week are the supreme beings, so they're not entirely dim - it's Duncan Shields and Curtis Bloes! This duo might not be international criminals just yet, but they'r...

Guzzle it down, sucka!

We’re back as some hooligans are going to add a little life to this party - with chains and bombs, bay-bay. Sebulba crashes his pod - poodoo! Just as Dick and Barb are about to take a tumble, he stops to comment on where she likes to hang out. Not classy, dude. Returning to the race and the case one final time is none other than Barter Town's finest - it's Rick and Julia from the Mad Max Minute po...

It's-a-me - Vin Diesel!

It's that Juggalo Call: Whoop Whoop! It seems like Dick is attempting to ‘save’ Barbara, a woman who clearly doesn’t need his help whatsoever. Good move, dude. As the racers head over a bridge we see the Sand People are going to attack! Once more entering the Thunderdome that is Gotham City are Rick and Julia Ingham from the Mad Max Minute podcast! They're the first to survive the audition yet aga...

Classy... yet blue.

Let the grand race... BEGIN! The throng release dollar balloons… for some reason… and Coolio starts the race with a BANG! We've got some Mario Kart style, bay-bay! All we need is a blue shell - we've already got the rubber banding. Returning to our crew as Special Guest Investigators are none other than Rick and Julia Ingham from the Mad Max Minute ! Mediocre? NO! They are perfect... perfect in ev...

The gangs all get ready for the big race. RACE WARS (not that kind)! Welcome to a gangster's paradise! We discover that Barbara is a seasoned pro. She won the Tunnel Run two nights ago so now it's time for the Kessel Run. Let's burn rubber,  Three-Jump! Returning to the case is singer and actor Bryarly Bishop! If anybody can win this race and send this Jesse Ventura-wannabe packin', it's our...

Bruce wants to know her... and he wants to KNOW her - wink, wink. This mystical, mystery, lady sure is seductive.  SHE'S EVEN THE MYSTERY GUEST! An intruder is in the garage… an intruder with long hair… WHO COULD IT BE?!?!? Meanwhile, down at the ol' racetrack... Returning to the investigation is singer and actor Bryarly Bishop! Here to take Gotham OUT of the grasp of fear and on down to the...

Bruce may be prime hubby material, but this lady can't wait forever! Meanwhile, a Peeping Tomasina spies all of this strife... or does she? Is she even there? GET YOUR MIND ON THE PRIZE, BRUCIE BOY! GET OUT, GIRL! Joining this week's investigation is a Bat Minute veteran - it's singer and actor Bryarly Bishop! Here to take us from praise to scorn, Brylarly is on the scene to whisk Julie to some ki...

Moving can be a stressful time for all concerned, so we're glad to see that this duo have taken it in their stride. Bravo. Meanwhile, Bruce and his lady friend are having a delightful dinner... full of AWKWARDNESS! Way to go, ruining it for everybody... I hope you're very happy. Joining our investigative team once more is the art-adept, wondrous wordsmith, brilliant blogger and illustrious liar hi...

Ivy and Bane begin their new version of Extreme Makeovers: Home Edition. The best renovation show, can I add? Bane takes Ivy's water love rather literally and irrigates the place. Not a bad gardener, this Luchadore chap. The poisonous one attempts to one up God himself - paradise in a matter of minutes, perhaps? Returning to the investigation is a professional film nerd, programmer, broadcaster, w...

We visit the most sensual of all locations, the bathhouse and attempt to evict the neon luchadore/sugar skull patrons. Yeet the tenants! Slap that Bane to rev him up - now he's good to go and ready to rumble. “Let’s redecorate” - calling the Queer Eye gang! Joining the investigation is a professional film nerd, programmer, broadcaster, writer and creative producer - it's Anna Bogutskaya! The next...

Evacuation... complete.

Freeze cannot breathe and the guards couldn't be more pleased - a weak Arnold is a vulnerable Arnold. Ivy can't believe it - the dynamic duo resisted her charms AND her magic. For now though, the pair need a lair. To the Turkish Baths! THE NEON TURKISH BATHS! Having one last crack at the case and to speak freaky deaky Dutch is Johnie Powers! Rounding out our top tier team is a podcaster who is num...

We’re back as the FREEZer is dragged further and further through Arkham’s cold corridors. Get this sucker into the beam! Bad move. This is the chilling sound of your DOOM! Unfortunately for Victor he's feeling a little choked up at the moment though. Returning to the investigation is our woman of mystery. Groovy - it's Johnie Powers! Turning podcasts to gold is kind of her thing. Joining her once...
