Checkered Past

It's our 25th episode! The My Greatest Strange Mystery Tale Adventure Players drop by to share three cerebral tales of the weird and whimsical from Strange Adventures #186!

Seven confirmed bachelors battling for the honor of a 97-pound weakling. It's like 'Queer Eye' but with planes! And don't forget the threat of PLANTIMAL!!

Grab a drink, you'll need it to get through all the cra-cra-CRAAAAAZY hi-jinks when the Doom Patrol teams up with the Challengers of the Unknown to argue and insult each other. Oh, and also, fight the League of Challenger-Haters!

Dr. Husband is here to talk about our mutual love of Ice Cubes Gum, pot-bellied eldritch demons, and DC's Discarnate Detective, The Spectre!

Superman and Batman try to outsmart their Bizarro duplicates, while Tommy Tomorrow and his "buddy" Brent ignore every rational protocol while exploring a planetoid!

Doctors Bobb and Husband discuss juvenile delinquency, what the things inside bells are called, PLUS a new radio drama by the Girls' Young Romance True Love Story Players!

Dr. Husband is back to talk about eyebrow shaving, evil pot-bellied bat-winged alcoholics, and everyone's favorite hero-and-villain-in-one, Eclipso!

Work Friend Chuck and the Work Friend Chuck Family return to discuss what may be our trippiest comic yet, Superboy 127. A sort-of backdoor pilot for Lana Lang, Insect Queen, and the introduction and last appearance of sullen teen Bee-Boy!

Work Friend Chuck and the Work Friend Chuck Family - Work Friend Chuck Jr., Mary Work Friend Chuck, and Kid Work Friend Chuck - stop by to discuss Teen Titans (Volume 1) number 2!

Dammit stops by to talk about girls, Elvis Presley, and mansplaining!

This week, we discuss space landlines, BJ and the Bear, and arguably the strangest hero of the Silver Age, Ultra the Multi-Alien!

This Memorial Day, we pause to remember all the Revolutionary War Heroes who defended our frontier from the Frankenstein Monster, Hessian scientists, and Mexican wrestlers. Heroes like Tomahawk and his Rip-Roarin' Rangers!

Dial D for Drs. Bobb and Husband to discuss muscular little people, Melania Trump, Dial H for Hero and Martian Manhunter!
