Which Would be the Worst Fictional Character to Sit Next to on an International Flight?

Ep. 567

Plumbing the Death Star has reunited after their UK tour and just in time for the Cheerful Earful Podcast festival, and they're talking planes and air travel. Jackson is scared the hulk will suck him like a lollipop, Duscher somehow ends up joining the Fellowship of the Ring, and Zammit gets put up for adoption. So buckle your seatbelt, make sure the tray table is up, shut the window, and get ready to enjoy your flight. Be careful, there's a capuchin monkey in the toilet.

  • 566. Who Actually is the Worst Wolverine?

    51:30||Ep. 566
    In the movie Deadpool and Wolverine they say that their Wolverine is the worst Wolverine because he got drunk once at the wrong time. The Plumbing Boys find that unsatisfactory. Surely there’s a worse Wolverine than that, gotta be. Zammit imagines a Wolvie who kept his chauffer license and loves his job, Jackson creates the greatest Plumbing riff of all time, and Duscher performs many incredible one man plays to the delight and frustration of his two friends. Art is so important guys, even if it’s just a play about what if Wolverine and Liberace interacted.

  • 565. How Would You Re-Design Aquaman?

    53:44||Ep. 565
    With basically no plan Plumbing the Death Star launch into the question today. How would you redesign Aquaman? For what? Who knows. Zammit wants him bald and mutilated, possibly so he more resembles a fish, or maybe for some other esoteric reason known only to him. Jackson sees him as a fisherman of sorts, forgetting that fishermen are the enemy of fish and fish are the friend of Aquaman, and Duscher goes full ‘lympics and also gets very frustrated with the boys. Do they come up with anything concrete? Who can say. Is it a classic episode of Plumbing the Death Star, liable to be entered into everyone’s top 10 list? Also debatable.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+
  • 564. How Would You Use Minority Report?

    01:01:14||Ep. 564
    Remember in Minority Report where if you thought about murdering someone they put you in a tube? The big tube you’re in forever alongside a bunch of other guys stacked six people high. Well here at Plumbing the Death Star we think that’s probably an imperfect system. Zammit is shocked that cops could be made even lazier, Jackson tries to become the worlds worst realtor, and Duscher wants you to send him your Orgy Spotify Playlists please. So hop into a nutrient rich pool and chuck on your headphones. It’s another episode of Plumbing the Death Star, a very good podcast.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+
  • 563. How Would You Exploit the Pet Sematary for Personal Gain or Profit?

    58:14||Ep. 563
    It’s our lucky day! We’ve gained unique access to a cemetery where if you bury something it comes back wrong! While we struggle to find the bit Zammit comes up with a hairbrained scheme involving cheap meats and a sack, JD has a longwinded plan involving a certain gorilla and Jackson wants to get back at poachers by encouraging poaching. Sometimes dead is better and sometimes the best laid plans often go awry.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+
  • 562. Why Would You Interview a Vampire?

    51:43||Ep. 562
    Your editor's lined up the interview of a lifetime! You're gonna win that emmy but for journalists, a Pulitzer Prize? Weird to call something we give out to people that do a good job at journalism a prize like it's something you won at a carnival handed out by a clown. Anyway, forget Frost/Nixon it's you/a vampire! What an incredible get! You get to sit down and talk to some old guy who spent most of their lives as a shut in except at night. What was it like during the war vampire? What's that? Spent it asleep? Oh how interesting. Want me to describe the sun for you? Christ you suck. The next time your editor asks you to go interview a vampire, be firm in your response and say "no. I do not want to." It'll be the best thing you ever do. Also JD gets distracted by a van in this episode. Like a dog.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+
  • 561. How Would You Raise the Devil?

    01:00:15||Ep. 561
    It’s my three dads as three dads do their best to raise a demon baby! You see, these three dads don’t have a kid and this here demon kid doesn’t have three dads! It truely is a match made in heaven. Well actually hell. Or more practically Italy we think? JD takes us through the plot of Omen while Zammit get m-pregged and Jackson gets caught up in a Diet Coke baby scandal. Who knew raising a baby with bad vibes would be so hard for three hapless dads?Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+
  • 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!
