TITANTALK 071: "Subconscious Patrol" Is Up!

 
"What kind of Captain Kangaroo/Jim Henson devilry is this?!"
-- Puppet Jane, Doom Patrol: "Subconscious Patrol"

Hello again, Titans and Doom Patrol fans! DJ Nik and I are back with a new episode of TitanTalk: The Titans Podcast! This time, we discuss "Subconscious Patrol", the eighth episode of Doom Patrol Season 3, featuring Brendan Fraser as Cliff Steele, Matt Bomer as Larry Trainor, Michelle Gomez as Madame Rouge, and Alan Heckner as Bump Weathers!

In this episode, DJ Nik and I discuss things like Nik celebrating his birthday at McDonald's, Doom Patrol being far better at character development than Titans, some background on Cyborg originally replacing his cybernetic coverings with flesh-like polymers in the comics, Cliff having the biggest breakthrough, Cliff revealing that doing blow and strippers makes him feel like a king, Human Cliff calling Robot Cliff out for tripping on Parkinson's meds and selling everyone's stuff even though he has a second chance with Clara and Rory, Jane's Sesame Street parody Underground Avenue, Puppet Jane and the other puppet personas dismembering Harry the Lamb, Kay telling Puppet Jane that it's time for her to grow up on her own and she wishes Jane would just die, the personas not wanting Kay to heal so they can continue to exist, Young Vic being told by a toy store manager that he doesn't carry black superhero toys because nobody buys them, Young Vic being given a General Tony action figure because he's black even though he doesn't want a soldier action figure, Vic's breakthrough that he sacrificed his childhood to become the perfect superhero Cyborg because that's what his father expected from him, Younger Larry telling Larry that he's from the day he hid from love by getting married to a woman because his mother married someone she didn't love, Larry choosing to not leave the space parasite abandoned in the woods, the Brain and Monsieur Mallah giving Laura DeMille her Madame Rouge codename as a member of the Brotherhood of Evil, Rita recovering her memories by time-traveling back to "Vacay Patrol", wondering if Laura DeMille liked being a part of the Sisterhood of Dada, Shipley's narration, our favorite quotes of the episode, new Tell It to TitanTalk email from Chet Williams, teasing our upcoming big special guest announcement, and more!
