BATTASS: The Batman The Animated Series Show Podcast

Welcome, Bat-fans, to another thrilling episode of The BATTASS Podcast! Today, your hosts, Clay McCormack and Sean Murphy, are diving into the world of Batman Beyond with two electrifying episodes: Out of the Past and Speak No Evil. But before we jump into the Bat-action, let me share a little frustration from my day job as a custodian at the zoo. You see, those cheeky monkeys have been throwing poop at me non-stop, and I swear they’re doing it on purpose now! Every time I turn around, SPLAT! It’s like they’ve made it their mission to drive me bananas. But enough about my primate problems—let’s get to the Gotham goodness!

Per DCAU Wiki:

"Out of the Past" is the fifth episode of the third season of Batman Beyond. It initially aired on October 21, 2000. At a time when Bruce Wayne is feeling his age, a woman from his past appears and offers him the chance to regain his youth. It’s the return of Talia al Ghul, but with a shocking twist!

"Speak No Evil" is the sixth episode of the third season of Batman Beyond. It depicts the appearance of an intelligent gorilla, Fingers, in Gotham City. When a roaming gorilla sends people into a panic, Batman quickly comes to the rescue but notes that the gorilla's much more intelligent than it should be, including the ability to speak English. After learning that the Gorilla is simply trying to find the man who kidnapped his mother so that he can get her back, Batman agrees to help him track down the poacher.

So, while I’m busy dodging monkey missiles at the zoo, Clay and Sean are here to provide you with insightful analysis and compelling discussions about Batman Beyond. Grab your headphones, settle in, and join us for another incredible episode of The BATTASS Podcast. Let’s get Batty!
