THE TREK THROUGH THE SIDELINE JSA EARTH-2 STORIES CONTINUES THIS WEEK ON "TALES OF THE JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA"! Yes, indeed, cats and kittens!! Scott and Mike are back this week -- slightly late because Mike has HORRENDOUS time management skills! Never fear, though. Scott hired some big guy who's middle name is "The" to... explain... yeah, explain, that's the best way to put it... "explain" to Mike that the listeners NEED their TALES OF THE JSA!!
Hopefully Mike will recover in time to record the next episode...
In any case -- this time out, the guys turn their attention once again to The Huntress and look at The Dark Knight's Daughter's butt... er, I mean, appearances! Her appearances! ...in BATMAN FAMILY!!
Starting with BATMAN FAMILY #17, The Huntress meets the Earth-1 Batman and Robin for the First Time (where she promptly knocks the Teen Wonder on his ass)!! Seems the Huntress wants some advice from the Caped Crusader on how to deal with this whole double-life thing. And so, the kindly Batman promptly passes her off to somebody else! Specifically, the Earth-1 Batwoman! Then proceeds to take on a bad guy with SERIOUS body image issues.
In the next story, we flash back to a sixties-style adventure in which bad girls Madame Zodiac, Catwoman, and Poison Ivy team-up and only the heroic trio of the Huntress, Batwoman, and Batgirl can handle them!! Your intrepid hosts have problems galore with this particular story, mostly because it's goofy as hell, but also because Helena Wayne discovers the truism that -- if an Earth-2 character goes to Earth-1, they will surely be as mistreated as a red-headed step-child!! For example... remember how Batman dumped Huntress off on Batwoman? Well, Batwoman immediately turns around and pawns Huntress off on Batgirl!! And Batgirl, also the daughter of a Gotham City Police Commissioner, is SO freakin' condescending to the Huntress!! Seriously! What the HELL is THAT all about?!!
We are VERY pleased to announce... THE RETURN OF THE HOSTESS AD!!
Yes, indeed!! The ads hawking high calorie, low nutrition snacks are back, baby!! And this time, it is Aquaman and Aqualad in an adventure that once again, stunningly, makes a good deal of sense -- much to Scott and Mike's chagrin.
Believe it or not, the five stories (and two panels) covered this episode equal only about two regular issues, so this episode comes in at a normal running time for a change (well, at least as normal as these blabbermouths can manage anyway)!!
Next Week -- The guys cover some adventures of Alan Scott, The Earth-2 Green Lantern, in both GREEN LANTERN and THE FLASH! See you then!!

What's the last book you read?!! With all the movies, comics, and tv channels out there, it seems more and more rare that people actually crack a book open nowadays. The Freaks know that there's nothing that can fire the imagination like a good book and that is what this episode is dedicated to... reading!! No, this isn't a joke!! Favorite books and authors, recommendations, rants.... it's a show The Freaks have been brewing for a while now, so here it is -- The Freaks' tribute to reading! Enjoy!! Did I also mention that Two True Freaks is THE BEST PODCAST EVER?

Hey there, Cats and Kittens! We are back with racks and racks of the best on wax, so hows about another groovy sound-spin on WJSA because it's BOSS? No? Awright, awright, so maybe we DON'T have racks and racks of the best on wax, but we DO have The Origin of Power Girl in Showcase Comics 97 through 99 this week and BOY.. is it "meh"!! Compared to the Huntress Origin, which the guys LOVED so much, it's pretty disappointing. Mike and Scott were expecting PG's origin to be just as good. Sadly, not the case (queue the sad trombone). Now, the issues aren't terrible or anything, but there is a LOT of goofy going on in them (some of which makes Mike just scratch his head and wonder "What the hell am I lookin' at here?!").
Afterwards, the guys come back with a bit o' e-mail from THE BEST LISTENING AUDIENCE IN THE KNOWN MULTI-VERSE! Subjects include: "Guy Gardner -- The Awesomesauce or Captain of the Douche-Bag Brigade"?; Scott's curiosity over where the JSAers were during the Space Race; Why one listener REALLY likes the show (the check is in the mail, Justin); How Power Girl is a very "healthy" girl and some women just need to eat a frickin' cheeseburger now and again; And the irony of the JSA's faithful service to their country all during World War II, yet they were called on the carpet by the guv'ment in the Fifties!
Oh, and Mike goes off on a rant. A political one, which made Scott happy because he was tired of being the only one to do such a thing!
Next Week: The Huntress In BATMAN FAMILY! BE THERE!! Aloha.
