Plumbing the Death Star
The Implications of Regeneration in Dr Who (Feat. The Video Shop Podcast)
•
In which our heroes hop in a Tardis, grab a young British woman, and commit genocide as we wonder what are the implications of regenerations in Dr Who. We talk the skill required to regenerate, how useful regenerations are for crimes, and whether or not you'd be able to successfully regenerate into a dog. Duscher handballs the Doctor some new generations, Sam calls out River Song, Cal pitches Dogter Who, and Jackson just realises how ridiculous Dr. Who really is and gets mad. So live recklessly, try and solve space crime, and hope your benevolent overlords will chuck you some more regenerations. You'll figure something out.

How Would You Get the Fox Across the River When You Also Have a Goose and a Bag of Beans?
56:38||Ep. 576It's one of the oldest riddles (or puzzles (apparently it's a puzzle, there's a lot of disbelief and arguments at this)) ever told! You are on one side of the river with a goose, a fox and a bag of beans and you have to get to the other side by a boat carrying one at a time. However, if you leave the fox with the goose that fox will straight up devour that goose and if you leave the goose with the beans that goose will straight up devour those beans. The fox and beans are chill tho. Now there is a solution (or two, that's why it's a puzzle and not a riddle and everyone is mad) but we here at Plumbing the Death Star think a) the solution is not in the spirit of the puzzle, b) it's not efficient and c) reckon we can do better. We go through a lot of broken goose necks to arrive at our answer, discuss at length the problems with of a pig heated house and try to work out an amicable solution with Erik the goose buyer. This riddle wasn't even hard, this was smart and we are in fact geniuses.Links to everything at https://linktr.ee/plumbingthedeathstar including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+575. How Would You Pitch the Truman Show to Investors?
41:21||Ep. 575Oh shade! That's what the boys needed! Now somewhat out of the sun the Plumbing Boys can bring Pooling the Poolstar to a close by trying to pitch the Truman Show to investors. Zammit isn't sure that a company should own a baby, Jackson wants desperately to live in the moon and Duscher shills for Big Crack. So chuck on the boob tube and flick over to your favorite show of all time "Screwin' with Truman" to see how they torture that boy this week! I hope you enjoyed Pooling the Poolstar, it was good to be in the pool.

How Would You Huff and Puff and Kill Those Three Little Pigs?
31:31||Ep. 574Plumbing the Death Star has been in the pool for too long and the sun is starting to get to them. You can tell. Duscher's head is burning. Maybe because of this they're turning their attention to fairy tales and trying to eat the three little pigs. Duscher wants to ramraid the pigs brick house, Zammit is unclear if destroying a tent is a crime, and Jackson invents the Hambulance, with truly terrible concequences. "Being in the sun for so long has made the Plumbing Boys even funnier," say the people. And they are right.Links to everything at https://linktr.ee/plumbingthedeathstar including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+
