S4E41: "Bat TV: Analyzing the 1960s  Batman TV series as a document of its times"

Batman returns...after all it's the second time this season we've covered the character, and third time overall (season 1 episode 1 is on the 1989 movie).  Matt, a social studies teacher from Haverhill, MA, by way of Kansas and Rochester, NY, joined me in Boston last Fall to talk about a number of pop culture topics before landing on one of the finest examples of 60s camp there is.
