Batman & Robin (1997)

About this episode

The episode covers the infamous 1997 film Batman & Robin with guest Rosie Knight, discussing its impact and related topics.

We swore we would never cover this movie. I mean just Haitch, really. Jason never cared either way - until our discord waged a multi-year campaign to break Haitch down. Now, we’re joined by literal rabble rouser, comic writer, and co-host of the X-Ray Vision podcast, the incomparable Rosie Knight , to finally cover Joel Schumacher's infamous 1997 superhero disaster, Batman and Robin. We also tackle Euphoria S3, sex workers rights, the comics that informed us, and whether camp can be good? You decide.
