Baseless Speculation
The Garfield Movie with Our Good Friend Adam
The Garfield Movie is only a few short days away and the Baseless Boys are all over this like a rash on a rashed up cat! JD is off sick so we have our resident Garfield Maniac Adam Carnevale to bring his Garfield knowledge to our truely clueless but beautiful boys. They almost get caught off guard by thinking about Shawshank Redemption but never fear, because Adam is here to keep them on track! Sure, they eventually do go down a Nathfield rabbit hole, but this episode is a solid 80 to 90 percent on track. Plot elements are talked about! Animation style is discussed! The casting of Chris Pratt is questioned! See, they know their Garfields! But did you know that Koko the gorilla had a pet cat? Not only did Koko chose the cat herself from a litter of abandoned kittens, but Koko was the one to name him! She called him All Ball as it had no tail. And Koko loved that kitten! Petted him, played with him, was ever so gentle and described him as SOFT GOOD CAT. Unfortunately after several months All Ball died in a car accident and when Koko was told she signed CRY, SAD and FROWN. Same Koko, same.

206. Repercussions of Agatha All Along
01:11:04||Ep. 206It's a shock to everyone but Agatha All Along is actually pretty good. Probably the best Marvel TV show of the Disney+ era. Who'd have guessed? But now, with a certified hit on their hands, what's Disney Marvel gonna do with it? Jackson apologises for his lack of faith, Zammit predicts Agatha going into Vision somehow, and Duscher almost gets very sick. So join the boys as they walk the witches road together and try not to kill each other along the way.For today's sad ape fact, did you know that in certain parts of the world ape bones are used to make charms to render the user invulnerable to wild beasts? Ape body parts are used in medicine, trophies, ornaments, magic rituals, ceremonies and other cultural practices with the most sough-after and expensive being the ape's left hand as it holds particular spiritual power. You see, to the gods, ape equal to man so spirit of ape is as powerful as spirit of man. So why sacrifice man when ape will do? I mean, personally I'd sacrifice neither, but who am I to say?Want to get in touch with your favourite boys?

Disney+ Marvel TV Look Ahead
01:02:32||Ep. 205Marvel just released a bunch of tv trailers and announcements and that means it's time for Baseless Speculation to get back in the saddle and do some speculating. Zammit has some useful advice regarding babies and screens, Duscher thinks it's time for another American Pie, and Jackson is tricked by his good friends into agreeing to watch Defenders somehow. What show will be good? What if S2? Iron-Heart? Daredevil Born Again? Marvel Zombies? Eyes of Wakanda? Wonder Man? It is truly exhausting to have this much content.Did you know that Kanzi the Bonobo has a favourite film? It's Quest for Fire! Kanzi probably sees themselves in at least all of the main characters we reckon. That ape can also play Minecraft, make a campfire and cook food. We really are doing great stuff with apes.Want to get in touch with your favourite boys?

Spider-Man 4
01:12:12||Ep. 204It's been a long road but we're finally here. A fourth spiderman movie. A quadology. Tom Holland's Spiderman's adventures continue. And the BS Boys are here to say how they reckon that would happen and weather or not Sony's gonna get it's grubby little hands into the mix. Jackson revolutionises names, Zammit draws comparisons between cricketers and Dave Warneke, and Duscher becomes momentarily obsessed with people net worths. The boys also get extremely heated about grapes. Extremely heated.Did you know that chimpanzees prefer grapes over carrots? Willing to climb higher and walk further for grapes instead of a little stroll for carrot. And rightly so. Carrots are dirt food that grow in the dirt like horrible sweet potato which is a suck ass food for dumb little babies. Want to get in touch with your favourite boys?

The Birth of the DC Universe: Chapter One Gods and Monsters
01:18:36||Ep. 203The BS boys are back and, well, not better than ever certainly but at least back to normal. It's time to talk about the future of the DCU and what the hell that's going to look like. Jackson becomes momentarily obsessed with water going up him, Duschers favorite superhero is revealed to be Gogmagog, and Zammit has faith in gun. Also everyone's Jerry Seinfeld impressions are good and accurate. It's like they never left!Did you know that the first reported case of gorilla's getting covid was at San Diego Zoo 2021? We can only assume they got it by performing to a large audience of other gorilla's at some kind of annual gorilla nerd convention. Want to get in touch with your favourite boys?

Going to the UK!
01:20:09||Ep. 202Next week the boys are flying out to the UK leaving behind Zammit. Not in like, a malicious way, he just can't make it due to wife being pregnant and it just felt a bit rude to go visit her home country while she is in no position to fly? But have no fear, James Sunday Movies (from the Weekly Planet) will be there (but no Mason)! Some tickets are still available or just opened up or sold out or has been and gone, depending when you are seeing this? If you're consuming this in like 2030 or whatever, what are you doing here? We'd love to know! And you can let us know by sending in an email to bsboyspod@gmail.com. By the way, we're taking a bit of time off due to the aforementioned UK trip, we'll be back in October sometime so rest up, let your brain cells bulid back up and your phone dry out from all the toilet water and we'll be seeing you in the UK.Did you know that during the Napoleonic Wars a French ship was wrecked in a storm off the coast of Hartlepool with the only survivor being the ship's mascot. Who was a monkey. In uniform (for the amusement of the crew). The Hartlepudlians, presumedly never seeing a monkey nor a Frenchman held an impromptu trial, found the monkey guilty of being a French spy and was hanged for its crimes.201. Listener Questions from the SP+ Discord
01:01:10||Ep. 201JD is out with covid this week so Zammit and Jackson decided a good use of everyone's time was to answer some questions put forward by you, the listener, from the Sanspants+ Discord!

Best to give us 5 stars on Apple Podcasts as well. It's for the best. Don't let those apes win.200. All the News From D23 Part 2
58:08||Ep. 200It's part 2 of the now I assume world famous two part d23 episode of Baseless Speculation. This time the boys are tackling all the animation anouncements, including a huge slate of sequels to classic Pixar and Disney films we all know and love. Toy Story 5 looks to be pretty good, as does the incredibles 3 probably.There's also a pixar tv show (Win or Lose) coming that looks pretty cute, and another one (Dream Factory) that seems mostly confusing. Disney also announced Frozen 3 and Moana 2, which could be good. Finally, there's Mufasa, a prequel to the Lion King that makes all the boys sick when they look at it. Also Jackson has an alarm for Spaghetti on his phone, for 8am. What's that about?Did you know that in the Jungle Book King Louie wants to be more human-like by gaining knowledge of fire but in reality if orangutans found out about jobs, taxes and rent, King Louie would be exiled for his idiotic desire to lead his people away from Nirvana.199. All the News From D23 Part 1
01:19:38||Ep. 199Get ready for the very first two part BS episode, as the boys trawl through every Disney anouncement from D23. Before that though, Deadpool and Wolverine made a billy (and then some) so it's time to talk Zoos and make enemies. With that out of the way, let's see what Disney's got on the slate for the next couple of years. Tron's back, so is Freaky Friday for some reason, and David Blaine is doing magic still. Star Wars promises some future highs (Andor, Skeleton Crew) and possible crushing lows (Grogu and the Mandalorian). The MCU is still pumping out content with the new Daredevil: Born Again and Agatha All Along on the horizon. Most exciting of all, Avatar 3: Fire and Ash is coming, that's extremely exciting. For everyone.Did you know that in the live action remake of The Jungle Book, they made King Louie a Gigantopithecus instead of an orangutan as orangutans are not native to India and the film makers wanted it to be authentic as possible! A film about a feral boy raised by wolves. Who can talk to him. Where monkey want fire. Authentic. Gigantopithecus. Extinct for at least several hundred thousands years. Authentic.198. All the Information and News That Came Out of Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con
54:01||Ep. 198The boys are a little tired from Deadpool & Wolverine but surely all the news that’s come out of Hall H in San Diego Comic-Con will perk them up?! It’s not like they’re tired of the dangling keys in front of their face? They love it when a thing is shiny! And the noise that key makes? You better believe that’s hootin n hollerin worthy. Can’t wait for the eventual Deadpool & the Exiles film but we can’t get too excited for that because we have Hall H news! Or should we say Hall H News? Really emphasis the importance with that capital letter. Bob’s back, but this time he is Doom. The response has been: mixed. We got a bit more about Fantastic Four that’s not soul crushing and we finally found out who Giancarlo Esposito is playing in Cappy America: Please Ignore Real World Geo-Political Events. Are we excited for any of this? Time will tell (no).Apparently only like, five days ago, chimpanzees may be capable of learning human-like words. Scientists watched some controversial footage of chimpanzees and they reckon they can do it with one saying “[g]reat apes can produce human words; the failure to demonstrate this half a century ago was the fault of the researchers, not the animals”. Now that should be capital N News.
