Meet Your Doom

Devin and Brian discuss potentially the oddest issue of Doom Patrol yet (which is also incredibly dark), as well as Madame Rouge’s kinks, what the Chief does on the second Tuesday of every third month, and why the Abominable Snowman is the complete package.

Brian and Devin discuss mutants (for real this time) in Doom Patrol 115, as well as weird ways that rich people get tax write offs and Into the Woofs, and also have a slightly serious conversation about word evolution.

Devin and Brian discuss a very unmerry band of mutants’ encounter with our beloved misfits in Doom Patrol 114, as well as Brian’s apparent issues with habeas corpus, the timeline of Chicken Nuggets (Mc and otherwise), and ways that cavemen can give positive affirmative enthusiastic consent 

Brian and Devin discuss the main story of Doom Patrol 113, as well as if masculinity is jowly, how machines and sausages work, and the logistics of attacking erogenous-zone-first. Also, Devin sings a lot. We're sorry.

Devin and Brian are joined by the good-for-many-things co-host of Titan Up the Defense, Cory, to discuss Beast Boy's origin back-up stories, as well as how accepting a princedom is like eating broccoli, matching hats with countries, and tough choices around cheese.

Devin and Brian discuss the conclusion to the Zarox-13 plot that basically ignores its first half, as well as the beginnings of Beast Boy not understanding sex humor, issues with alien-tech Life Alert, and perm-related conspiracy theories.

Brian and Devin cover an admittedly frustrating Doom Patrol 111, and also discuss Devin’s mom’s methods of paper editing, joining a naked family, and how this issue was so stupid even Brian couldn’t Brian. 

Devin and Brian return from a very long hiatus to discuss Larry's backstory from issues 106 through 111, as well as the fact that Louis Zamperini is a multiversal constant, how circuits work, and distinct types of cartoon aunts.

In their last episode before their hiatus, Devin and Brian discuss the finale of the Beast Boy/Galtry story, as well as the evolution of the Brain's relationship with Mallah, whether or not Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas was intended for sex-use, and the Chief's Dinner Theatre. See you all later this fall!

Devin and Brian discuss the fate of the definitely-not-dead Doom Patrol as well as resurrecting poop, Brian's method of eating Neapolitan ice cream, and how jars work.

Devin and Brian discuss the pretty tense Doom Patrol 108, as well as conservative America's true problem with Elvis, bows as a better type of minimum wage, and how there's no way to redeem a Never-Been-Kissed. 

Devin and Brian discuss the continuation, escalation, and complication of the Beast Boy/Galtry story, as well as their dog’s aptitude as a cheerleader, Cars (Pixar, 2006) role-play, and their email-induced guilt and anxiety.

Devin and Brian welcome guest X-Pert Miles Stokes to discuss Amalgam’s X-Patrol #1, as well as Devin’s recurring nightmares, how much dominos relate to luck,  and just how 90s the 90s could be.

Devin and Brian discuss the main story of Doom Patrol 106, which is getting continuity-heavy enough that Devin has to do a "previously on", as well as Devin's disgusting food habits as an 8-year-old, Maxwell Sheffield's sinful secret, and what’s actually going on with Rita’s hair. 

Devin and Brian discuss Rita's failed honeymoon plans and the end of the Robotman backstory (or is it?)  in Doom Patrol #105, as well as how to break into our home easily, the math Devin does for our listeners, and some legit discussion of comic books as a medium that was not meant to maintain readership.

Devin and Brian have Alex of Doom Patrol Studies on to discuss Doom Patrol 104: The Wedding of Rita (Elasti-Girl) and Steve (Mento). Naturally, there's discussion of the fashion, the guest list, but we also manage to cover the utility of public art, the value of working from home, and letters written by actual fans and not just Arnold Drake in a wig. 

Devin and Brian discuss both stories in Doom Patrol 103, which seem like they shouldn’t take a while, but they do. While we’re at it, we discuss how scientific readings may be like bra-sizes, popular soups, and modest streakers. Also, prepare yourselves, because we have a Sentence Diagram Battle.

Brian and Devin discuss the conclusion to the Doom Patrol’s first crossover in Doom Patrol 102, as well as the difference between normal fictional cities and fictional capitols, the dangers electric fans posed to 1960s men, and - naturally- Miss Marple.

Devin and Brian discuss Challengers of the Unknown 48 (aka The Doom Patrol's first crossover) as well as whether white undershirts are shorthand for gay sex, how to play euchre, and postulations as to who actually read Challengers of the Unknown. 

Brian and Devin discuss the main story of Doom Patrol 101, as well as fancy sandwiches, lines of inheritance between professors, their families, and grad students, and how Brian can Brian himself.
