Cowabunga! This week, we celebrate 30 years of our favorite heroes in a half shell - the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Since their comic book debut in 1984, Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael, have been present for every generation. Turtlemania continues to be alive and well as our favorite reptilian heroes have embedded themselves into popular culture with six theatrical films, five TV series, an animated crossover with Batman, a slew of video games and countless comic book appearances. Steve Barron’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is thus far the best onscreen translation of the heroes. It’s more than childhood nostalgia that makes Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles such a beloved film and Dave, Leo and Ryan tell you why this week.

Next Episode

128: Batman & Robin

Don't take yourself too seriously this week. We're back with a new episode dedicated to Joel Schumacher's classic, Batman & Robin. It's likely the most infamous comic book movie of all time, one that stopped production on the Bat as we wouldn't see another Batman film for another 8 years. Despite its narrative failures, it does provide fun entertainment and classic puns you won't forget. Sit back, relax and listen with us as we explore the glory of Batman & Robin.
