Debate This!

Yes, indeed. In the Age of Internet Video the world of Content Creation was unformed, shrouded by fog. A land of dancing babies, epic meals, and Star Wars kids. But then there was Podcasting and with Podcasting came disparity. De-monetization and ad revenue, Copyright strikes and brand deals. Then from the dark, they came, and found of the Sponsorships of Lords within the code. Quibi, the First of...

CONTENT WARNING: at 1 hour 38 minutes we discuss sexual assault in comic books. Last year we discussed Social Justice in Comics (Season 4, Episode 21) which covered an entire spectrum of social justice issues that comics sometimes handled alright, but often times missed the mark. This week, thanks to continued support of Patrons like Sharkbait, we're dialing in to focus on Gender in Comics. Join u...

Wouldn't it be wild if we remade a 2000s-era reality show but made it about comics characters? Wouldn't that be nuts? We definitely haven't done that before! The bit this week is all about giving supervillains a shot at redemption. Andrew learned an awful lot about Bane, Todd is all hopped up on sketchy science, and Kyle brings up police reform as well all groan about it. We're looking to create t...

It's been a few years since the last time we remixed Pokémon gyms, but a particular question from our 100th episode put us back in that mind space. Turns out most of us also have deep trauma related to our own experiences with college internships. Who knew? So this week, we're examining the horrific truths of Pokémon's one-note minibosses by asking, "Which gym leader would host the worst college i...

Well here we are folks, four years later we stand at the precipice of our 100th episode! Whether you've been with us since the beginning or you hopped on the train somewhere along the way, we wouldn't have made it this far without you. To thank you for your support, we've put together this centennial special of insanity. The proverbial rulebook has been thrown out the proverbial window in favor of...

Seems like everything is time travel this or alternate universe that, right? Well, this episode is no exception because today we're diving into the 2011 DC storyline Flashpoint! Join us as we discuss the universe-changing miniseries that DC used to launch their New 52 storylines. Come explore an alternate reality where Thomas and Martha Wayne are alive, Superman never became a hero, and Reverse Fl...

Have you put chocolate in your peanut butter lately? Well we here at DT!HQ want to make sure you've gotten your regular dose of mashup content! The buzzwords of the week are "Comic Book Movies" and "Muppets." So what comic arc would make the best Muppets movie? Only time and 75 minutes of nostalgic vocal impressions will tell! Wildly enough, Matt has never seen a Muppets, so he opted to go for som...

It sure feels weird to release an episode about summer road trips on a day after it snows, but we don't control the weather! Today we're pivoting DT!HQ into a AAA as we describe some video game-related TripTiks. Our goal: to plan a family vacation. Our rules: it's got to be related to Mario Kart or whatever. This week we ask the question, "Which Mario Kart track would make the best family road tri...

Verily, we venture into a vast volume of the verifiably valued graphic novel version of V for Vendetta by Alan Moore in the very early 80's. Vacate your vainglorious valor as we vanquish the veneer of vacillation with verbose veracity...also Kyle does a really good job of summarizing this storyline, you just have to get past the moment he says "Earballs." TRIGGER WARNING: V for Vendetta addresses...

It's Spring in the midwest which means it's time to break out the grill and throw a backyard BBQ on the days it doesn't snow or rain! We love our low 60's cornhole parties here in Ohio, but sometimes an invitation to a good, old-fashioned cookout requires a little more. Sometimes, it requires a plus one. Well today we're bringing a ringer to our barbeques by answering one of the dumbest questions...

The year was 2018 and a small, independent podcast called Debate This! decided to reboot some not-so-famous Spider-Man villains from the "silly sixties." Today, 39 whole months later, that same small, independent podcast will dare to do it again. We may never best the likes of Paste Pot Pete, but we'll certainly aim higher than a "Living Vampire." Andrew brings us back to the wild world of animal-...

Something a little different for you this week! "The Ploose is Loose!" will soon be transitioning into "Avenge This!" This will more or less be the same show, except we're going to open up to comic book properties outside of the MCU (and hopefully will stop being asked about The Mandalorian). We wanted to share this announcement on the Debate This! feed because we know you care about and follow al...

In a stunning turn of events, today's FLAVOR TEXT involves children fighting monsters, dealing with all sorts of trauma, and is also an anime! Join us as Andrew walks us through the 26 episode arc of Demon Slayer on Netflix! We've got a story of a brother protecting his sister, a horrifying series of spider monsters, and half a dozen surrogate fathers. Stick around as we go over one of the best an...

The early 2000s were truly a wild a time and nothing personifies the hubris of the new millennium better than the primetime lineup of Music Television. You may know Music Television by its Christian name, MTV, but you definitely know it as the cable channel which loved to show us the glamorous life of celebrities. Well, this week the execs asked us to put together a show for DT!V. They asked us to...

Look, you're reading the shownotes of this episode which means one of two things: you're either new to this show, in which case turn back now and start with a different episode...or you really care about this show, in which case we're very sorry. We've asked ourselves a lot of questions, dear listener, but this week we're doing something important. This week, we're predicting what video game movie...

Today we're talking about building a super powered child army, the JFK assassination, and zany time travel antics. No, we're not talking about X-Men plotlines, we're talking about The Umbrella Academy! Join us as we review the origin, cast of characters and the first two seasons of The Umbrella Academy on Netflix! We've got a ranking system of how much a father loves his adopted child soldiers and...

What is February 1st if not the afternoon of Thanksgiving persevering, am I right? If you couldn't follow the thread on that incredibly niche joke, today we're hosting a dog show! Spend your Tuesday the way suburban families spend their post-Macy's parade afternoon as Debate This! asks, who is the goodest boi in gaming? Take a nostalgic trip back in time as Matt brings up video games' first bully....

To celebrate the start of our 5th(!) season and 30th(!) FLAVOR TEXT, we are bringing you a comprehensive ranking of the lore from those properties! Which property's lore did we rank the highest? The lowest? Does the fact that there a...

It's the season premiere episode, baby! To kick off season 5 of DT!, we're jumping in on one of the most popular games of all time. It's got more players than Fortnite and it's made more money than GTA 5. This week is all about Candy Crush! But we're not crushing candy or matching three in this episode. No, today we ask, "What Candy Crush Candy is the tastiest in real life?" Todd picked the candy...
