Crisis on Infinite Earths

Sunday Feb 09, 2020
Mike and Jim discuss Crisis on Infinite Earths, the 2019-2020 CW/DC Arrowverse television series crossover event spanning episodes of Supergirl, Batwoman, The Flash, Arrow, and Legends of Tomorrow, during which Mike constantly mispronounces Stephen Amell's name and overreacts as Jim constantly spoils all things Arrowverse.
Jim also spoils the comic book series of the same name that the crossover story is, in part, based on, but since those comics were published 35 years ago, he doesn't feel guilty about it.

This episode also begins and ends with a discussion about animation, more specifically comicbook/superhero animation, and why, even though it may be perceived by many this way, it’s not just for kids.

Shazam!

Tuesday Sep 24, 2019
In this episode of the Fanboy and the Hater, we review the 2019 DC movie Shazam! In a rare twist, Jim gets to play the role of Fanboy, while Mike’s Hater mainly takes issue with the movie’s many cliches, tropes, and lazy writing.
(Fun Fact: Most of this episode comes from the first thing we ever recorded for this podcast as a proof of concept, so . . . some aspects of the audio quality aren’t our best.)
