Plumbing the Death Star

It's that time again where the marketing geniueses that are Plumbing the Death Star have to spin their wheels to sell a fictional product! This time they've gotten their grubby little hands on Men in Black's infamous neuralyzer. Sure it can wipe minds and probably shouldn't be used by anyone let alone the general public but let's see how they do! JD wants to speedrun therapy, Zammit forgets we can...

We're in the magical land of Encanto! There's a big house that keeps giving that one family fantastical powers and we, humble citizens of Encantoland don't know how to feel about it! On one hand our lives have become so much easier that we can now spend all our time at Jackson's Loveable Puppet Shop but on the other hand why can that boy turn into anyone and why does that family need to hear our s...

Oh no! Plumbing the Death Star’s best friend Olivia Rodrigo has started dating a vampire. That was probably a mistake. What’s more, she went and wrote a song about it for some reason. But which vampire dammit! Who’s got their fangs in our bff! Zammit thinks he can change a sewer dwelling Nosferatu! Duscher refuses to believe Edward Cullen is a virgin! Jackson thinks all blowjobs should happen stan...

Jackson's got the covid and Zammit's getting nose and tongue surgery so we're taking a break! To read about that in full detail you can check out the news section of our website! So instead of a brand new episode, enjoy a stellar episode of What If...? that first aired in May 2023 exclusively for Bad Brain Boys+ subscribers! In 1977 Marvel attempted to answer the important questions with their Wha...

Jackson’s riddled with covid so no new episode this week, instead here’s an episode from the archives! A Plumbing the Death Star+ that has never been more topical! Originally airing in March 2023 for our beautiful subscribers, we found out Greenday wrote a song all about Spider-Man and had to get to the bottom of it. So in celebration of Greenday’s new album, give this very special episode a very...

Oh boy! Mutants have crawled their way up from the sewer and are roaming the streets of New York! It's time to give in to panic and run for your life! Or is it? No say the plumbing boys, it's actually awesome! Seeing a rat is fine and seeing a rat man is even finer. Duscher equates drinking milk with cannibalism! Jackson tries to make a horse jealous! Zammit turns his cats into people! All three o...

Season’s Greetings True Believers and welcome to #2! The thrilling conclusion of this special Christmas edition of Agents of J.O.(a).E.L! Despite the loss of a helicopter and a boat, Agents Joel Duscher and Joel Zammit are closing in on the Arctic Circle, where Father Christmas has the citizens of Longyearbyen in mortal peril.

Season’s Greetings True Believers and welcome to #1 of this special Christmas edition of Agents of J.O.(a).E.L! Santa Claus has run amok, attacking the innocent town of Longyearbyen, setting fire to people’s houses and letting loose his evil minions.

Season’s Greetings True Believers! For being such good Joels this year, we got the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game and our bestest friend in the whole world and Jackson decided to treat us to our very own adventure! #1 drops Christmas day and #2 a week later, unless you’re a Bad Brain Boy+ Subscriber on either our website or Apple Podcasts then you’ll get it Christmas day! But if you can’t wai...

'Tis the season. Tis the season to spend like ten minutes failing to define a jacket and then a further ten minutes arguing over what happens in the Santa Clause. Once that's done we can get to the episode. Zammit becomes a cockney James Bond, Jackson doesn't believe Yogi Bear is his responsibility, and Duscher hates the Bayou. Merry Christmas one and all. Great Jackets. Links to everything in our...

Ben Grimm is a mess. Cosmic rays turned him into a horrible rocky monstrosity that makes everybody sick. Yuck. Mr. Fantastic refuses to fix him, so maybe the Plumbing Boys can have a crack at it. Zammit wants to seperate the thing from Ben Grimm, creating a rock with depression. Jackson knocks the fantastic four's rocket out of the way of the cosmic gas leaving earth at the mercy of Mole Man. And...

Keeping your identity secret is a time honoured tradition in the super heroing community, so what happens when three bumbling idiots try their best to conceal their identities from the public? Introducing Lead Lad, he may be a CEO of many companies and a tech genius but he’s not in that hi-tech mech suit that he designed. That’s a body guard and or a robot! You may know him as Scorpiman, the menac...

Some of us saw Blue Beetle, some of us didn’t see Blue Beetle. Either way, we’re here to tell you that Susan Sarandon is a baddie. Susan, if you’re listening, please respond to Jackson re: horny like a cartoon wolf. We’re sure the moment you see him smack his own head with Zammit’s shoe, you may reconsider your stance on gross little goblin men, just like he’s reconsidering his stance on gilfs! He...

We see dead people and it’s making us angry! Go away ghosts before we start taking medication to stop seeing you! Zammit proposes a new kind of heaven, Jackson puts forward his new hit TV series ‘The Ghost Gettler’ and JD doesn’t think you’ll guess the right Wahlberg. So listen in as we try and figure out a way to monetise seeing the dead, wonder how many ghosts are in any given space and do our b...

Against their better judgment two thirds of the Plumbing Boys sat down and watched The Boss Baby. Then one half of that third watched the sequel The Boss Baby: Family Business. Firmly steeped in Boss Baby lore, we now have a lot of questions. How old is a Boss Baby? Are the executives we know and love today just Boss Baby Men? Will a grown up Boss Baby have the same personality when he is a Boss M...

After getting in trouble with Johnny Law and sentenced to 500 hours of community service we did not think that the fine people of Minnesota would take pee-wee hockey this seriously but here we are. Sure, Coach Bombay learned that winning isn’t everything and that the most important thing is that you have fun (but also that you do indeed win) but we’re already there! Zammit goes off to serve out hi...

It’s the worse time of year. Mum’s search for our new step-dad has coincided with the spooky season. Deck the halls with cobwebs and ghouls, it’s All Hallows Eve as mum goes to the woods to find her newest soulmate. Be it playing catch, providing for the fam or slamming our mother’s cheeks, we rate these potential dads on our patented 5 point system to learn which of these three cryptid bachelors...

Let’s be honest, Jiminy Cricket sucks. He barely teaches Pinocchio right from wrong let along how to be truthful, brave and unselfish. No matter which way you cut it, Pinocchio is let down by every authority figure he meets. So let us look after this horrifying wooden facsimile of a real boy! We’ll teach him a thing or two about a thing or two. And just before we impart good morals or whatever, we...

In times of great distress a hero destined for great things will appear to save Hyrule and stop it getting dunked. Or he won’t and he’ll cook it. Or he’ll arrive late. Sometimes not at all! We don’t know. We’re either too complacent or not complacent enough. We know some guy’s got this and you need to trust in the method. Unless he doesn’t got this because no one can bat 100. Or he doesn’t know th...

It’s a story as old as time: Alien crash lands on earth, several spunky teens are close by, da alien lets them touch a blue cube and now they can turn into any animal they touch! While Jake, Cassie, Marco, Rachel and Tobias go and fight the slug like Yeerks we have different plans. Jackson wants to save gorillas, Zammit wants to sow political chaos and JD’s plan involves time travel and a loaf of...

Oh no, in a weird twist of fate Johnny Allspikes is shooting spikes from all over his body and that young boy has turned into a ham dinner! Best send them off to that school that deals with this kind of thing. Sure Charles Xavier (who we’re pretty sure is a professor) might be able to help them with their mutant powers or whatever, but can he give them a good education? We delve into past teachers...

Oh no da boys have done it again, tripped over with their pants around their ankles and fallen through the portal that goes to every universe. They also did a little fart when they fell. We look at the pros and cons of Scott Bakulaing v Jerry O’Connelling and when dealt with infinite possibilities the answer is always yes. And no. Zammit uses the multiverse to go to the beach, take ambien and fall...
