Our hosts return to the podcave, dust off their spurs, and ride into the Wild West as they review the episode, “Showdown.”
Alex and Will dive into the animated debut of legendary DC antihero Jonah Hex, discovering his questionable past as a Confederate soldier -- which is quite the departure from his comic book origins.
But, in a surprising twist, the mostly liberal person in 1883 was Ra’s Al Ghul. He stands up against the mistreatment of his labourers and tries to free his small frontier community from a corrupt government railroad takeover. Wild, Wild West, anyone?
They also discuss Ra's catatonic son who probably died on the plane journey home and the premier episode of his history podcast titled, "I Was There!"
Saddle up for another spirited episode filled with time travel, antiheroes, and just the right amount of absurdity.
