Ep 499Is There Any Way You Could Possibly Be Responsible with the Ultimate Nullifier?

E

While reading too many Marvel Comics (especially the 1977 What If…? series for our bonus subscriber show What If...? where we pick up the slack left by Marvel writers to once again ask the important question ‘What if?’ (new episodes the first Saturday of every month (subscribe now to Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts or Bad Brain Boys+ directly from our website))) the boys have learnt far too much bullshit Marvel lore and are now left holding the Ultimate Nullifier and wondering if there’s any possible way to be responsible with this thing (they’re also wondering if they just fired it, but that’s a question they’ll never even think to ask). Ultimately the Ultimate Nullifier makes a bad tool that complicates the most basic of tasks and should only be used to Ultimate Nullify another Ultimate Nullifier.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

Ep 498Would You Be a Batman’s Robin?

E

Batman needs another little boy to help him fight crime and we know just the three little boys to help! But first we have some questions. The first being can we have a part-time job or do we get an allowance for being a good little boy? What’s the go with our current living parents and does it matter that we’re older than Bruce? Either way Jackson chooses to be an Oracle after he gets puffed doing two very slow and not good forward rolls, JD has the brilliant idea of painting a target on himself and Zammit takes no responsibility for the man he just murdered. So let’s load up the bat-computer with viruses from all these sweet free pornos, blow our secret cover by ordering too many ubereats to the bat-cave and distract Batman with this sweet bat-playlist we made him when he bat-fights bat-crime.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

Ep 497What Would You Do With the Flash’s Powers? with James aka Mr Sunday Movies

E

In this very special episode of Plumbing the Death Star we talk about the very special movie Flash and are joined by very special guest James aka Mr Sunday Movies as we’re all hit with a very special lighting bolt that gives us very special powers, but mostly the power of be quick. Jackson passes on the dangerous knowledge that most people survive getting struck by lightning which has now set him on a dangerous life trajectory, Zammit lays down on a beach and eats all his stolen Coles chickens, JD commits the perfect crime and James tells Jackson he has to yell at children. So with our newfound powers let’s all mess with the multiverse, see how badly we can ruin a horses day and learn about the sperm knock-on effect. Remember kids, it’s not alternate realities, it’s just alternate cums.James probably hosts a podcast or whatever, but more importantly his wife, whose name is Claire Tonti, has an album out you can listen to right now!

Ep 496For the First Time in History It's Going to Start Raining Men! Will You Survive the Coming Days?! with James aka Mr Sunday Movies

E

The boys are joined by special guest James aka Mr Sunday Movies and oh no, have you seen the news? The humidity is rising, the barometer’s getting low and according to all sources at about half-past ten tonight, for the first time in history, it’s gonna start raining men! How will you survive the oncoming man storm? With little to no information on what caused said man storm the boys speculate on the nature of this man rain. Is it new men? A mass displacement? Or the global himbofication of all men? Zammit thinks it’s all a blood ritual by Mother Gia herself and has his eyes set for what he thinks is the ultimate goal, JD slanders Dennis Nedry to everyone’s dismay, Jackson goes on his little adventures and ends up with a scorpion wife and James once climbed Mt Kilimanjaro. Batten down the hatches, hope your wife doesn’t like her perfect man and prepare for the greatest cucking this generation has ever seen when this traveling man cloud comes to your town.James probably hosts a podcast or whatever, but more importantly his wife, whose name is Claire Tonti, has an album out you can listen to right now!

Ep 495How Would You Cope With the Three Shell Dilemma in Demolition Man?

E

After being cryogenically frozen for several decades the boys have awoken in 2032 and need to shit real bad! Thankfully they still have stainless steel prison toilets for such an occasion. After scrolling through future google on their future phones while their sphincters slowly defrost they are presented with one of earth’s biggest mysteries. 3 shells. Stallone’s explanation is thoroughly examined as we all look at a diagram we hate and are perplexed to how Stallone thinks anyone is expected to pull shit out from ones own anus using two shells held like chopsticks. The future is covered in poopy, which probably explains all the germophobia. Our confidence is at an all time low as we’re all worried about passing the sniff test. Go on, give it a sniff! Is it clean?? No. It absolutely is not clean.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys. Hosted on Acast.

Ep 494What Would You Do if You Found Them Ninja Turtles?

E

Once again the boys have found themselves in a sewer looking for clams but this time they’ve found some slopped up turtles and they appear to be growing up at an alarming rate! From teenage mutant toddler turtles to teenage mutant teenage turtles, the boys are taking it upon themselves to raise their new found turtle sons which inevitably ends up with the turtles being used in one of their harebrained schemes. Jackson wants them as goons for a security scam, Zammit wants to run a legitimate landscaping business and JD forgets his turtle sons are actually his tortoise sons. So inject us straight into your veins to get that feeling of blappiness and don’t trust anything Al Pacino tells you when you’re on a bus.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

Ep 493What are the Wider Implications of the Universe Portrayed in Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

E

The boys watched Roger Rabbit and have questions. Does Toontown exist geographically? If we from ape, what toon from? Do they age? Can they only be killed by dip? Is it good to be pancaked? And many, many more. Once again featuring a gross misunderstanding of evolution, the boys come up with two competing theories. One being the popped boil theory and the other involving a literal magic pencil. Let us know what camp you fall in or perhaps you’re inclined to invoke the inter-dimensional interloper theory.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

Ep 492How Would You (For Financial Gain or Personal Profit) Exploit an Encino Man?

E

We know all you care about is nugs, chillin’ and grindage but we’ve gone and dug a hole in the ground and holy shit, we found a guy frozen in ice. Now how are we going to exploit this (Encino) man for financial gain or personal profit? While Dave thinks this thawed man will impress babes and he’ll be crowned prom king, we’ve got some bigger and better ideas. Zammit wants to take Johnny Caveman on a coming of age road trip to the Gold Coast, Jackson wants to keep digging and JD has a very quick get rich easy scheme. So let’s all stop being so crusty and start wheezin’ the juice bud-dy. Oooooooowwwwww!Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

Ep 491How Would You Use the Suicide Squad (2016) to Stop Superman?

E

It would really suck if Superman peeled off the roof of the White House and stole the President and flew him in a figure 8 above the White House. What’s that? Superman peeled off the roof of the White House and stole the President and now he’s flying the President in a figure 8 above the White House? Doesn’t he know he’ll make the President dizzy! That’s one of the top 5 things you shouldn’t do to a President! Thankfully we have a Suicide Squad to save the day! Deadshot shot Superman once so surely he can do it again? Enchantress can maybe possess Superman but is this worse for humanity? Either way we have some harebrained schemes to save our beloved President from their dizzy fate from Doomsdaying the whole Squad, to pushing Harley off a building, to getting a gun that fires swords. Right now we have a very important mission and there are no bad ideas. Up to and including voting Killer Croc for president of New America.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys. Hosted on Acast.

Ep 490Is the High Evolutionary Clever at All? with Hayden Bleechmore

E

JD and Jackson recently went on a trip to Sydney, leaving Zammit at home and bringing friend of the show Hayden Bleechmore! After seeing Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 in ultra 4D where they had their dick and nuts blown clean off, they had some questions about the High Evolutionary. Recorded live from the car on the drive home, the boys do their best to go over the High Evolutionary's plans, try to make the perfect being using the gills of mammalian sea creatures and the wheels of a car and make the argument that making meth is art. Safety first, so buckle up and take the passenger seat while JD drives us home as Hayden and Jackson bicker in the backseat.

Ep 489Which Would be the Worst Fictional Pet to Train? with Ruby Innes

E

Ruby Innes has stopped by the studio to look at fictional pets and discuss which one would be the worst to train. Jackson looks at the confusing world of Disney and the problems of owning a dog who is maybe a guy and having a guy friend who is maybe a dog, JD hates his quick rat pet, Ruby makes a compelling case for the world’s worst chef and Zammit plays it safe with a lasagne loving cat. It’s one for the ages as we ruin a Mega Drive while praising no fault divorce as two of the four hosts crack under pressure.

Ep 488How Would You Deal With the Shark Problem in Jaws Better Than How They Deal With the Shark Problem in Jaws?

E

The boys need some quick cash so hastily wrote “and also Sharks too” on their “will kill the following for $5” sign and as luck would have it the mayor of Amity Island was walking by with a huge Jaws problem! The only catch? They can’t shut down the beach and they’ve only got two days. Zammit’s plans quickly get away from him as dolphins start getting dressed up as sexy ladies, JD wants to fasten the effects of global warming and Jackson wants to go fishing with him as the worm. It’s Jaws v the boys as they cobble together harebrained scheme after harebrained scheme to get rid of this great white once and for all and earn that $5 (each tho, don’t you dare skimp on that extra tenner Mr. Mayor, we will cause a scene).Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

Ep 487How Would You Survive the Labours of Billy Madison’s Academic Decathlon?

E

The boys have decided that they could take on Eric, Billy Madison's nemesis, by taking Billy Madison's place in his Academic Decathlon. We present a lot of piss solutions to a big piss problem, play a simple game of 'pigs' to try and endear us to Veronica and burn our thumbs with hot sugar to impress the judges. We're all very confident we could beat a second team all-American Harvard track athlete, make the bold claim that we're at least as smart as a cat (if not smarter) and are all extremely confident we could body a bullet. So join the boys as we don't remember Shakespeare, shoehorn smut into a question about the Industrial Revolution and get taken down by our own hubris. Thanks Veronica for beating the shit out of us.

Ep 486How Would You Raise Franklin Richards (A Boy Who Can Manipulate Reality)?

E

Mazel tov! It's a boy and what a boy indeed! Three proud dads are now given the momentous task of raising Franklin Richards, a boy who can do anything, be anything and change everything. Zammit immediatley gives everyone an unnecessary lore dump before they all wish they had one of those GTA V playing Nightcrawler babies instead, Duscher keeps panicking about puberty and Jackson just wants li'l Frankie to live his best life. So crack open a refreshing can of titty milk and join us in our chaotic journey of dadhood as we try to bargain with our boy to make Coco Pops healthy and then worry when he is a dog.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

Which Mario Power-Up Could You Use for Personal Gain or Financial Profit?

E

Mamma Mia! The Boys broke into the Mushroom Kingdom and got their hands on some of those delicious Mario power-ups, now how will they use them for personal gain or financial profit? Zammit goes invincible to be a crash test dummy and entirely misses the point of ca rash test dummy, Jackson has pervert adventures and JD gets big to go after those high and mighty fire fighters. Join us as we eat those mushrooms and hope they tastes like spaghetti. We’re not saving a Princess because we’re too busy using these power-ups to fire a bunch of cannons into a belly, get stuck in a fridge or rule the free world as the biggest man possible.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

What Would You Do With the Powers of the Thing aka Are a Hand?

E

To celebrate the success of Netflix’s hit series Wednesday, the boys imagine life as everyone’s favourite handservant Thing T. Thing! The live-action coming-of-age comedy series Wednesday sees everyone’s favourite maiden of the macabre attempt to master her emerging psychic ability, thwart a monstrous killing spree that has terrorised the local town, and solve the supernatural mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago - all while navigating her new and very tangled relationships of the strange and diverse student body. Fans and critics both agree that Jenna Ortega shines in the role as the titular Wednesday whose back must surely be hurting from single-handedly carrying this show! Ortega masterfully brings a touch of vulnerability and teenage angst to the stoic and deadpan character and really is a breath of fresh air to what is arguably a stinker of a show one of Netflix’s most popular shows! So what are you waiting for! Wednesday, streaming now exclusive to Netflix.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys. Hosted on Acast.

Bugs Bunny: Friend or Foe

E

We all know Bugs Bunny. A anthropomorphic grey hare famous for his relaxed and passive personality. A mischievous trickster, chewing on his signature carrot while sprouting his famous catchphrase "Eh, what's up, doc?”. Since his official debut in the 1940s Bugs has appeared in various short films, feature films, compilations, television series, music records, comic books, video games, award shows, amusement park rides, and commercials. When TV Guide compiled a list of the fifty greatest cartoon characters of all time as part of the magazine's 50th anniversary in 2002, Bugs Bunny was given the honour of Number One. As the editor stated “[He] is the best example...of the smart-aleck American comic. He not only is a great cartoon character, he's a great comedian. He was written well. He was drawn beautifully. He has thrilled and made many generations laugh. He is tops.” But that’s the public image. That’s what Bugs wants us to know.

Are Sidekicks Worth It?

E

Life as a superhero is often taxing, the hours are long and it sure can be lonely. Plus there’s only so much a single costumed vigilante can do! You can’t join a team because you’re a lone wolf and that would ruin your reputation. Having a partner doesn’t feel right to you as that implies the power dynamic is equal. If only there was some kind of solution where you, a fully grown man, could have a student-teacher relationship with some kind of youth so your authority is respected but you don’t have to deal with all that duty of care nonsense that would prevent you from using them as bait to attract you serial killing nemeses. Boy, do we have some great news! Introducing sidekick! All of the bond you’re craving without any of that pesky responsibility! Need a plucky teen to nimbly cut some wires of a bomb when your big, strong hands would be too strong and powerful to do so? Sidekick! Needs someone to stay behind to ensure the blast doors stay closed when the bomb goes off? Of course you’d do it, but your city needs you! You can’t be the one that dies, you’re the main character! Sidekick! And what about when you’re handling a dangerous bomb like device like a bomb? Can you imagine what would happen if you dropped it? Better shirk that responsibility into softer and more youthful hands. Just call 1800-SIDEKICK for your disposable teen now!

Throw that sloppy burger on the ground, pick through it for only the meat bits (and maybe some lettuce) while we try and figure how long we’d last in this clicker infested wasteland that is the Last of Us. Jackson wants to entertain the people with a five step plan that involves finding a dead clown, Zammit also wants to entertain the people but without a dead clown and more ego and JD joins the fireflies just for something to do.

Which Villain Could You Represent (and win) in Court?

E

It’s time to lawyer up as the boys put on their cheapest suits and form the shoddiest of arguments to defend some of the worst criminals known to man. Zammit asks the court if Smurfs are basically chickens and just how wrong eating said chickens is, JD queries if doing nothing is a crime even though the crime his clients are accused of is doing nothing and Jackson brings forth the wild allegation that if the Big Wheel was not named Jackson Wheel he would never have made a Big Wheel to terrorize the city of New York. There’s nothing but contempt of court as surprise witnesses are called to the stand as the defendants all hope for a mistrial.

Which Would be the Worst Ape to Have Raised Tarzan?

E

We all know Tarzan being raised by ape was inevitable, but what if different ape?? Confused by the theory of evolution, the boys become wary of making apes too clever and get scared by what comes next. Zammit puts forward Bigfoot with their skills of hide and seek, Jackson suggests the Wifeless Wonder himself, Gorilla Grodd and his need for a human to be the face of his criminal empire while JD looks at the coconut throwing jewel thief that is Dunston from Dunston Checks In and how that orangutan cannot handle any form of criticism. But be it Bigfoot, Gorilla Grodd or Dunston we should all be thankful that Tarzan wasn’t raised by the worst real ape: mandrill. A horrible and nasty creature. Loathed by all and the closest we have on god’s green earth that resembles a xenomorph. If all dogs go to heaven, every mandrills goes to hell, where they flourish.

An honest living is out of the question so hold up and let them crook, the boys are about to break bad. Jackson’s inability to swallow a pill once more ruins his life, Zammit decides to embezzle from a podcast company (like in real) and Duscher makes the perfect Kickstarter. Full of impeccable impressions, pickmans and Tax Goodmans, this episode really asks the important question if we’ve hit a creative height or creative low. Let us know what you think!

Would You Trust a Little Boy With the Powers of Shazam?

If you can’t trust a little boy with the powers of Shazam, who can you trust?! In reality the powers of Seus, Heus, Aeus, Zeus, Aues (again) and Meus was given to the sad, lonely and despicable Billy Batson by a misguided and potentially evil Wizard but fear not! Because we’re here to finally right this wrong. We go over several pathways like giving Shazam a carer to giving the most pure of heart (a dog) godlike powers to varying degrees of success to finally turning inwards and giving ourselves the powers of the gods to fix all our aches and pains. We don’t fight the devil but we also no longer groan when we get out of a chair so we’d call that a big win in our books.Buy our terrible merch here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys.

The boys keep sending good money after bad to make it good as they each put forward their own harebrained scheme to exploit the beach that makes things old. Jackson never once waivers from his antiquing scheme, Zammit in a huff tries to offload a depreciating asset and Duscher does his part for the environment.

Jackson immediately wanders off to commit brain surgery while the Joels try and see what they can do for NASA. We all try different ways to take Zammit’s wife for a nice holiday to Hawaii, realize our cats wouldn’t understand Italy and maybe the best way to deal with all these powers is to become a symbol of peace through war by being the benevolent dictator you know and love.

Could You Survive the Kafka's Metamorphosis Experience?

E

We're starting the new year strong by stepping into Gregor Samsa's vermin like shoes and asking if we'd survive the metamorphosis experience when we wake up as bug. Collectively one third of this handsome trio has read exactly one half (later revealed to be one third) of Franz Kafka's book but that doesn't stop us as we all have whatever the opposite of an existential crisis is. An existential catharsis? Either way JD immediately goes bug world, Jackson just wants to catch the night bus to the beach and Zammit either dies or survives a trash compactor.

This week on Plumbatar, the boys ask the burning question we've all been dying to know: Is the Avatar Program the ideal use for an Avatar?

The last time the boys tackled this question it left everyone with an existential crisis and now Zammit wants to redeem himself. But before he can do that Duscher wants to get really big. Like Ant man but without the pesky problem of getting little. Joel Duscher can grow to be a 12ft man, who can rip the roof of a bank and take bites of cars. JD alias The Shaker aka Mr Big Nude, a veritable Robin Hood to all those effected by wage theft! Wowing civilians and on-lookers with his signature move, The Shake Down, where he picks up businesses and shakes them.Jackson wants to be a whole city otherwise known as Pluck-o the City man, which is essentially a Symbiote. Only he doesn’t have enough self awareness to fight crime right and humans are like ants crawling on his skin which won't possibly go wrong.Finally Zammit becomes The Hunch and gains the ability to change the narrative. He can shift reality to make everything the way he thinks it should be. Making innocent people guilty, guilty people innocent! History and memories change on a whim! There isn't a situation where he isn't always 100% correct. Buy our terrible stickers here and check out the Bad Brain Boys on Apple Podcasts at apple.co/badbrainboys. Hosted on Acast.

What is the Worst Thing You Could Find in the Ocean?

E

This week, the Bad Brain Boys are tackling a fan-submitted question: "What is the worst thing you could find in the ocean?"Once again, we need to remind you that this is a pop culture podcast.The boys spend far too long talking about what they would do if they found another version of their loved ones' floating around... or worse yet, if they found another them but dead just floating in the ocean. The Bad Brain Boys get pretty deep into the possible of making it to Earth 2 or getting sucked off into space (through the ocean). They also discuss what it means to be human and the possibility that the sea itself might talk. One thing is for certain, let's hope they never find a big red button they can push because they will with zero thoughts going through their brains and no regards for consequences.Listen now and sign up to apple.co/badbrainboys on Apple Podcasts for even more content!
