"Titans Go!" This week we dive into the complicated history of the Teen Titans in animation and the transition between two very different shows involving the same cast of characters.

Apologies for the audio issues you will hear in this week's episode.

We then celebrate the theatrical debut of the Teen Titans by discussing their new movie about wanting to get a movie made, "Teen Titans Go! To The Movies". Does it represent the show it's based on well? Do the meta-jokes and Easter eggs appeal to the Bat-Jar tastes?

How many shrinking puns can we fit into one episode?

This week we settle the score from last week's smashdown- the fans decide who comes out on top between "Zootopia" and "Moana". 

Then we grab our handy microscopes to examine the Quantum Realm as explored in the latest MCU film, "Ant-Man & The Wasp". How do the guys feel about this return to the lighter side of the Marvel Universe? Is it superior over the original film? Does it expand the universe in new ways?

To avoid SPOILERS for "Ant-Man & The Wasp" skip over 52:13-1:20:58 of the episode.

Who will emerge victorious in this smashdown of "Zootopia" and "Moana". Will Average Joe be able to keep an open mind on this subject? The next ten rounds will answer that!
