Ross is the Red Hulk and also a member of the Avengers, the Incredible Hulk has been separated from Banner who freaked out without Hulk and thought that it was the Hulk that attracted Betty to him in the first place and tried to fuse him and the Hulk back together and ended up “killing” himself. Also, Betty is the Red-She Hulk, all this from the Marvel Wikia. Also, the stronger Hulk gets, the dumber he gets, Superman would eventually out think him and overpower him.

Something tells me that Tim would like to be apart of this:

Just because of this one TANfight…. ….this could also mean that Stan Lee secretly listens to TANcast and is now stealing the TANfight idea…. hey … we can dream…

Is it just me or have the last 2 episodes not shown up in iTunes?
June 6th, 2012 at 6:14 pm
TANcast is too cool for iTunes & apparently Zune… damn…
June 6th, 2012 at 8:39 pm
It is not just you, Erin. For some reason, iTunes isn’t checking in with us to see that we’ve updated and posted new shows. Andy is working on the problem. If you subscribe, the episodes still get downloaded but for some reason they don’t show up in the store. Odd.
June 6th, 2012 at 9:50 pm
I just got mine today, it downloaded for me, of course I’m subscribed just because I’m too lazy to look it up, but it is taking a few days instead of the very next day it goes up on the website, like it used to.

Wow, TANcast broke iTunes… Sweet!!
June 6th, 2012 at 11:18 pm
Size matters, I guess.
Best guess at this point is that 200 episodes with full notes, links, and Tim’s disclosures about “TEH PODCAST IZ NSFW!” was more than iTunes could handle. The full feed (all 211 episodes) now clocks in at over 1 MB of XML data.
I cut the feed to 50 episodes (under 300 KB), and will see if iTunes picks it up in the next ~24 hours. If it does, I may try out a new (experimental) Powerpress feature that leaves full episode notes intact for 10 episodes and minimizes the rest to see if that will fly, from both a listener useability and a “not break iTunes” standpoint.
I’m also looking at creating a special “Everyfuckingepisode” feed that people would be able to subscribe to directly.
I’ll be out of town Saturday afternoon and Sunday, so this may take some time. It shouldn’t take as long as making the goddamn site theme suck less (#andysucks).

I just noticed that Superman is the figure flying in the background of this week’s episode artwork. Well played, Tim.
And yes, Superman would beat any and all of the Avengers. And why would Superman just throw the Hulk into space, why not throw him into the sun? This is, of course, going with the TANcast all rape-y Superman who wouldn’t be opposed to killing.
And I think it was the Cyborg Superman in Reign of the Supermen that chained the dead body of Doomsday to an asteroid and threw him into space. Well, the alleged dead body of Doomsday (spoiler, he was laughing as he streaked away on the asteroid…silently laughing due to no atmosphere, though)

Nice catch, Joe.
Also Superman does try to get Doomsday into space, but instead of throwing him, he tries to fly him into space. Doomsday is able to wriggle free. In a case of good old fashioned Skelltor logic, he doesn’t try again even though it almost worked.

I thought Hulk punched Thor because Thor had come in halfway through the fight and Hulk hadn’t wanted any help.
Yes MIB3 started filming with only the first third of the script written, I heard, so they could lock in Will Smith.
For brief but very listenable movie reviews from Australia: Blockbusters, Indie flicks, and weirdly obscure arthouse flicks. It’s all here as triple j’s Movie Guy Marc Fennell gives you the latest Movie and DVD reviews.
That’s where I got the MIB3 factoid anyway.

@Andrew I am starting to love Australian females, I think it is the accent. Is there an Australian word for an attractive female?
June 14th, 2012 at 9:46 am
@Noah, I know Sheila is one way. At least that’s what the bathroom door says at Outback Steak House. 🙂
A link to some great Aussie slang! Just read a “mumbler” is a hot chick in tight shorts. A gay guy is a “beaver leaver”! Love those Aussies!

Now I forgot what I was originally going post….

“I smile and wave at people all day telling them where the bathroom is.”
@Grace, I do that too, but the police keep telling me to stop.

@Todd thanx for the comment I saw that at just the right moment thank you
