After Lunch | Batman (1966), Season 4
Rob and I welcome Erik Johnson and Noel Thingvall to create a fourth season of the Adam West Batman series by crossing it over with other late-'60s TV shows. In addition to the new guest-characters, some of the stories also include new villains pulled from comics of the day and played by popular actors of the period.

After Lunch | You Only Live Twice (1967)
This extra-sized episode opens with Rob, Karen Flieger, and I answering trivia questions about Dr No and From Russia With Love. The questions are multiple choice, so play along as you listen.
After that, we return to the official Bond film series with Sean Connery's first last appearance in the role. And we are not in agreement about the quality of this film. We'll talk about why before wrapping up with more trivia, this time about You Only Live Twice.
