    How Would You Use an Ape to Solve a Crime?

    How Would You Use an Ape to Solve a Crime?

    It's a strange day on the force as it's B.Y.O.A. (bring your own ape) to help solve the untimely death of the commissioners son. It looks like foul play but we have Mr Bojangles, the former smoking circus chimp, to help us with the case! From assisting in advanced interrogation techniques, to grooming us during a stake out, to helping prove we're not no cop in highly stressful undercover situations, there's not a single crime an ape wouldn't be useful. Listen in as the boys truely ape out and learn about some of yesteryears favourite ape based tv shows. Jackson believes his orangutang has a process, Zammit wishes he was a baboon boy and JD firmly believes apes has no moral conscience. It's good cop bad ape down at the cop factory, so let's all be glad apes don't have a gun.

    How Would You Use Flubber To Cheat?

    How Would You Use Flubber To Cheat?

    It's 1997, a wacky and mad mannered scientist has created some kind of hilarious and maybe sentient goo! This goo is dubbed flying flubber by another of this scientists creation, a robot called Weebo. We do not go into the implications of that robot, the fact that it can love or that it kinda gave birth. That's not the purview of this episode. What is the purview is that this mad scientist uses flubber to help a basketball team cheat at basketball and we want to know what else we can use flubber to cheat with! From a terrible day at the races to a terrible day for one pizza delivery man, the worst brains in podcasting attempt to use this incredible scientific discovery to cheat their way to the top.

    Could You Handle Seeing Two Dogs Eat Spaghetti à la Lady and the Tramp?

    Could You Handle Seeing Two Dogs Eat Spaghetti à la Lady and the Tramp?

    Your favourite boys cannot believe their eyes! Did they just see two dogs on a date? A full on romantic evening? Slurping up spaghetti with human lips?? Surely not! But if they did, how will this affect their world view or will it simply wash over them like spaghetti off a duck's back? Listen in dear listener as Jackson regals us with an interrupted retelling of Lady and the Tramp while the Joels have a lot of beaver questions and horrible stories to tell. We recommend skipping from about 25:41 to about 34:35. For your health.

    What if Wolverine Had Killed the Hulk?

    What if Wolverine Had Killed the Hulk?

    In 1977 Marvel attempted to answer the important questions with their What If…? line of comics. They Failed. Now in the year of 2024 the Plumbing Boys have picked up the slack and dared to ask once again: What if?

    How Would You Improve the Public Image of the Green Goblin?

    How Would You Improve the Public Image of the Green Goblin?

    Norman has a problem and no, it's not Goblin Madness, it's his public perspection. The good people of New York percieve him as a pumpkin throwing, skeleton creating lunatic and we here at Plumbing the Death Star want that to change! Join us on this journey of goblin-discovery as we attempt to fine tune Osborn's theme, embrace the military industrial complex and make promises to the voting public that we 100% can keep. Just remember everything we've said. We meant all of it.

The Tsunami Crashes

Yes, Joel. The weird X-Men episodes are always good. To the rest of you freaks reading this review…listen to all the old episodes twice. They will melt your brain to mush (feels great) and make you laugh like a moron. Boop boop boop.

Great Podcast: Just Missing…

Honestly such a great a podcast. While I don’t know a lot about most of the topics the guys talk about but as long as I have some idea I’m in. The great part of they have plenty of episodes that’s don’t rely on superhero/etc knowledge I don’t have! My only criticism is the lack of scooby doo episodes.
Shout out to Who Knew It With Matt Stewart for introducing me!

Really funny and informative!

Ñ Assertions that werecats truly exist and have an origin in supernatural or religious realities have been common for centuries, with these beliefs often being hard to entirely separate from folklore. In the 19th century, occultist J. C. Street asserted that material cat and dog transformations could be produced by manipulating the "ethereal fluid" that human bodies are supposedly floating in. The Catholic witch-hunting manual, the Malleus Maleficarum, asserted that witches can turn into cats, but that their transformations are illusions created by demons. New Age author John Perkins asserted that every person has the ability to shapeshift into "jaguars, bushes, or any other form" by using mental power. Occultist Rosalyn Greene claims that werecats called "cat shifters" exist as part of a "shifter subculture" or underground New Age religion based on lycanthropy and related beliefs.
