Plumbing The Death Star

Jackson is so mad at Wonka that he forgot the golden rule of running a competition: the goal for the company, or in this instance, the man, is to get as much money as humanly possible. Jackson is so hellbent on Charlie becoming Wonka’s heir that he has perhaps forgotten that Willy Wonka is a famous dirtbag, liar and exploiter of workers. Perhaps with an incredible record setting year in chocolate sales, Wonka has picked this moment to scarper with all those funds and then give the key to his “fortune” to some stupid child who was too busy sucking down snozzberries to realise he had been scammed. Charlie is a literal child, he doesn’t know anything about taxes, shareholders or ROI. Two years down the line, he’s going to get a knock on the door while Wonka has disappeared into the wind, laying down on some beautiful island getting his snozzberry slopped off. We’d say not that island, but truth be told, would you be surprised if Wonka’s name appeared on a list? Charlie is going to rot in jail. Idiot child. Just

Today the boys are joined by wonderful friend and even more wonderfuller comedian Lauren Bonner to ask a very important question one of YOU had: which green guy is the best to be? There are so many good green guys! There’s Hulk whomst gets purple pants every time he exists. Green Goblin has goblin madness and that could be pretty neat. The Jolly Green Giant! He’s so jolly! Yoda - he gets to live in a swamp! Gamora? Gets to not be in a relationship with Chris Pratt. All wonderful green guys to be and we don’t even discuss these guys this episode! See.

Lena is joined by her buffoon co-hosts Joel, Joel and Jackson to eventually discuss the problems with superpowers in job interviews. Jackson displays a problematic amount of whimsy, JD is out for Jackson’s blood before we even start the show and Zammit and Lena have somehow synched up their lives. Don’t forget to Toss the Boss as you enjoy all the wake sandwiches you can eat while we all wait to inevitably replaced by birds.

We’re Duscher-less this week but we’re joined by George and Demi from Grin and Dandy to help answer another incredible pop culture question. This time we’re going back in time with only the information contained within our rotten brains to try and exploit those past-os for personal profit or financial gain. The only problem is we aren’t clever nor do we retain information well. Zammit tries a harebrained scheme to invent the wheel but gets too caught up in coconuts and doesn’t fundamentally understand how wheels work, Jackson wants to domesticate dogs early and wants to immediately break the rules and bring back a dog, George has a brilliant idea to make a cult and Demi wants to bring back an ear worm which made Zammit think of that horrible film he hates Yesterday so changes his answer to ensuring that he Yesterdays Yesterday.If you’re in Melbourne for the Melbourne International Film Festival, be sure to check out Grin and Dandy!

The human body has so many superfluous bits and is lacking cool things like extra knees and we here at Plumbing the Death Star are the perfect trio to come up with brilliant and very smart ideas to change things up. Let's take a hard look at our beautiful bodies and just go buck wild with it. Swapping genitals? A little guy that does all our poops for us? A big eye on the top of our head on constant watch for big birds? All this AND Jackson has a weak little mouth on another exceptional episode of what is fundamentally a pop culture podcast.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+ Hosted on Acast.

Your boys have woken up in a lab, or possibly seen a guy who looks EXACTLY like them or simply walked into the Clones R Us store and are now having to figure out the conundrum everyone faces when dealing with a clone: which one of us is the butler? Zammit puts a lot on the line with a flip of a coin, JD revolutionises vets and Jackson's biggest problem is both Other Jackson and Himself. Having a clone? No big deal. Remembering the plot of the 6th Day? Now that's hard. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In an episode where they've never needed his bullshit X-Men knowledge more, Zammit's out sick. But never fear true believer as he's been replaced by our good friend Darcy Smith from Studio Folly! Who knows NOTHING about X-Men. He didn't even know Wolverine aka Logan aka James Howlett bones were coated in adamantium. You all better come for him in the comments. They didn't even mention the time after Wolverine got the adamantium ripped from his bones where he turned into a full on cave man, wore a bandana and had no nose. Nor do the mention the time of how he got his adamantium back. You see, at the time, and unbeknownst to the rest of the X-Men, Apocalypse had kidnapped (man-napped? mutant-napped?) Wolverine and pitted him up against Sabretooth (who had been enhanced with adamantium from the arms of the evil mutant Cyber (he had arms coated in adamantium)) to see who would become Death (one of the Horsemen of Apocalypse). Wolverine defeated Sabretooth believing that only bad would come out of Sabretooth becom

Da boys have 'lympic fever as they each use their last few remaining brain cells to envision a universe where they could possibly win gold at any sport. Zammit wants to make Cold Horse an event and believes he should get one for reasons that are unclear, Jackson might not win gold but he will go down in annals of 'lympic fever and JD is so sleepy from all that jet lag and good Italian eating so sorry fellas, no 'lympic orgy for him! He's too busy being so sleepy and not at all stealing your gold medals while you're in the orgy pile. It's the 'lympics, f***ing 'lympicsin the winter, the winter 'lympicsI'm cold, gonna get gold, i'm so coldIt's the 'lympics, the winter 'lympicsI'm gonna compete, i'm going skiingIn the 'lympics, the winter 'lympics it's the f***ing 'lympicsThe winter 'lympics, it's in it-a-la-lyItalian 'lympics, mamma miaAh the 'lympics!

Who could forget the 2011 Bradley Cooper vehicle ‘Limitless’? Where he, of course, as you remember, played worthless scumbag Eddie Mora who took so many limitless pills he became Mr Limitless and then eventually, probably, became Mr President (Still Limitless) we think?? Limitless! Take drugs! Have a big think! Fix your life! Maybe if we’d downed some before we hit record we could have come up with something better than Tinker Taylor Tooltime Al. Let us know if you came up with something better.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+ Hosted on Acast.

Are Kermit and Miss Piggy doing kissing? or perhaps even more...? Who knows? There's only one thing we know for sure, and it's that Jackson should never be allowed near those puppets.Thanks to our special guest Sammy Peterson for joining us.
