How Would You Handle Having the 6th Sense from the Sixth Sense?

Ep. 517

We see dead people and it’s making us angry! Go away ghosts before we start taking medication to stop seeing you! Zammit proposes a new kind of heaven, Jackson puts forward his new hit TV series ‘The Ghost Gettler’ and JD doesn’t think you’ll guess the right Wahlberg. So listen in as we try and figure out a way to monetise seeing the dead, wonder how many ghosts are in any given space and do our best to loophole immortality. We might not know a lot about anything, but we do know that we’re chockers full of ghosts and that Jesus was a tradie.

  • 560. Which Fictional Character Would Make the Best Best Person (at a Wedding)?

    55:33||Ep. 560
    Hey, never say Plumbing the Death Star never did anything for you. Best Man PJ asked Plumbing the Death Star for a shoutout for his mates Tom’s wedding and they went and did a whole episode instead. A wedding themed episode, no less. Jackson asks Professor X to be his best person and crosses some personal boundaries, Zammit opts for Superman and, uh, yeah, we’d like it if he’d get our Step Mum back from Space, and Duscher chooses Remy the Rat, forgetting the powers of Remy the Rat and ruining his whole wedding. It’s a matrimonial spectacular, congratulations, you look radiant in that dress and oh so handsome in that suit, look at you two go.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+

  • 559. Could You Be A Better Boyfriend than Peter Parker?

    53:38||Ep. 559
    Peter Parker you're not a good boyfriend. You never puts MJ first, you're always missing her plays or other events that are important to her. We understand your uncle's car crash gave you powers or whatever and because of that you stop crime as Car Uncle Man but Peter, you can't predict the future and we're fairly sure your Car Uncle, Cuncle Ben, wouldn't have wanted you to stop that car that killed him. He'd be worried that you might injure yourself, or worse, get turned into a car, like how your uncle did before he died and told you about powers and responsibility or something we think? All we're trying to say is that you're always leaving, and from the distance, the suit you're always wearing is just one giant red flag. Go to therapy, get a pager, communicate more, be flexible with your time and for once in your life, maybe put MJs needs above a strangers?Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+Come see us at the Cheerful Earful Podcast Fest, both live AND streaming!
  • 558. After All, What is a Wonderwall?

    49:35||Ep. 558
    Oasis is getting back together to the surprise of pretty much everyone, prompting Plumbing the Death Star to ask: hey what exactly is a wonderwall anyway? Why would someone be one? And what does it have to do with the classic Pixar Cars franchise? Duscher has some strong opinions on the game of Downball, Zammit theorises about an invisible wall that is also Car Heaven, and Jackson remembers the movie Drop Dead Fred. It’s a question for the age that even the Gallagher Brothers are unable to answer in any concrete way.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+Come see us at the Cheerful Earful Podcast Fest, both live AND streaming!
  • 557. How Would You Survive a Quiet Place?

    01:03:54||Ep. 557
    Things are off to a bad start when Zammit wants to de-voice himself and JD wraps himself in a blanket before landing on 'being on a boat' would be the best way to survive a Quiet Place. However, now what? They don't know how to fish, discussion of desalination only leads to yelling which is the one thing they really shouldn't do. The boys argue about magnetic south, try to eat fish bones and fail to catch seagulls (for its hydrating blood) before a quick divergence into JFK young juice conspiracies and qanon's interesting theories about that one bad day in Dallas. Either way, how bad can salt water really be?Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+If you’re in the UK and want to see three beautiful idiots live and in the flesh, head on over to https://www.sanspantsradio.com/events/category/live-shows/ and grab your tickets today to see us in Edinburgh, Manchester and/or Birmingham if they're not sold out.
  • 556. Which Fictional Child Would Be the Best to Step-Dad (Live)?

    57:08||Ep. 556
    Recorded live at the Comedy Republic in Melbourne on August 22nd 2024, the boys dared to ask Which Fictional Child Would Be the Best to Step-Dad? Zammit is going to be a father soon and the other two will also be there so what better way to test their fathering mettle with their approach to fatherhood with fictional children? You need to ask yourself, who did it best (or the least worst) as general parenting, the birds and the bees, athletic prowess and how well we get on with other kid's dads are all taken into consideration when raising these children that are now under our care. Zammit is worred he won't be able to keep up with a man-cub, JD wants to be praised for looking after a reverso-boy and Jackson has to explain to a rat the dangers of stealing. It ain't easy being a step-dad but at least the courts will have premo evidence when Zammit's kid gets taken off him.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+If you’re in the UK and want to see three beautiful idiots live and in the flesh, head on over to https://www.sanspantsradio.com/events/category/live-shows/ and grab your tickets today to see us in Melbourne, London, Edinburgh, Manchester and/or Birmingham.
  • 555. What Would Be the Worst Mutant Ability to Awaken Within You?

    01:17:35||Ep. 555
    Puberty is never good. It's even worse when your teeth are little guys, you can explode exactly one (1) time or Wolverine is there to welcome you into the X-Men while you wait in a cave. Today the clever geniuses at Plumbing the Death Star are asking what the worst mutant ability to awaken with. Zammit wants us all to have big thinks or be pig warmers, Jackson experiences a very bad morning before getting a great pair of sunglasses but JD goes and ruins it for everyone. From having the sensation of pie to experience a haircut you're not having to orifices dialatingon their own. All we know is that when JD's power awakens you better pray to whatever god you believe in that you just happen to be sitting down when he is.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+If you’re in the UK and want to see three beautiful idiots live and in the flesh, head on over to https://www.sanspantsradio.com/events/category/live-shows/ and grab your tickets today to see us in Melbourne, London, Edinburgh, Manchester and/or Birmingham.
  • 554. How Would You Use the Powers of a Baby to Rob a Bank?

    01:03:35||Ep. 554
    This is pop culture. We swear. Springsteen wrote a song (and a book) so it counts! Outlaw Pete is about a bank-robbing baby whose exploits become a meditation on sin, fate, and free will. Springsteen himself said it’s essentially the story of a man trying to outlive and outlast his sins! Now the sin is robbing a bank and the man is a baby but it still counts! But we here at Plumbing the Death Star ain’t gonna spend any time on that, we’re here today to discuss how you’d rob a bank using the powers of a baby. And not just any baby, a baby that is at most 3 months old. Zero object permanence, no knee caps and a weak fontanelle are just a few of the things in our arsenal to rob a hank. You might be thinking that such a task is impossible and we’re here to tell you that yes, not being able to speak, hold your own neck up or even have man-thoughts are definitely hurdles. But never underestimate the nature of man, or in this case baby, and our willingness to overcome any obstacle put in our way.
