Recent News & Episodes

Batman Knightcast is so done with Superman now that the movie is out (and great, btw), so Chris Franklin and Ryan Daly return to the usual Knightcast format, reviewing two classic tales of the Dark Knight. First up is “The Batman Nobody Knows” by Frank Robbins and Dick Giordano, originally published in Batman #250. Then “There is No Hope in Crime Alley” Denny O’Neil and Giordano from Detective Comics #457. After that, the fellas respond to listener feedback from Knightcast episodes 38-42.

RECORDED LIVE (sorta) from the Daly family basement, this special episode of Fire and Water Records features Neil Daly and Ryan Daly ranking and recounting some of their most memorable experiences at concerts and music festivals. And in honor of the subject matter, the brothers recorded the episode together, in the same room, although still over Zoom because of other technical issues. Not that any of this matters, because it’s a podcast; it’s not like this is broadcast live to the listeners. But whatever, enjoy!
