We talk about WB the same way people talk about Disney.
I've been a fan of Warner Brothers ever since the very first time I went to the movie theater at three years old, the movie was Who Framed Roger Rabbit and the moment was when Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse fell through the sky together. Ever since then I thought of Warner and Disney as parallel synergistic entities.
Even through the 90s where they had the 2nd generation of Looney Tunes with Spielberg's Tiny Toons Adventures, Animaniacs, Freakazoid, and Histeria and Batman and Superman crossing over all on their own branded channel, The WB Network, high quality Batman films 20 years before the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Six Flags hosting the Looney Tunes and DC Comics characters and their Warner Brothers Studios Stores, Warner Bros was a force to be reckoned with.
About a week after AT&T bought Warner Brothers, I put together a podcast devoted to all things Warner Brothers entitled: The AT&WB Podcast.
AT&T sold WB to Discovery who now runs DC Comics, HBO, Looney Tunes, Hanna-Barbera, Game of Thrones, The Harry Potter Film Universe, and even Mad Max and The Matrix... The IPs go on and on.
It's the Warner Bender Podcast, with news about DC Comics and the Greater Warner Brothers Fandom, a term I completely made up!

Warner Bender Podcast - Episode 46 - The Flash (2023) WBreakdown
First, we want to congratulate the actors of SAG-AFTRA on getting their fair share, what they earned and are owed. Now that the Strike is over, I can now release this WBreakdown of The Flash (2023)! The guest and co-host for this episode is SAG-AFTRA actor and friend Paul Alan Dixon from off of Film Vets on YouTube!
During the strike we broke down our name change from the AT&WB Podcast to the Warner Bender Podcast just as HBO Max goes to just Max and how it reminds a generation of Skinemax. We touch on the beginning of Zaslav Shark Shelfing completed films for tax write-offs some more, and happy 100 Years of storytelling and owning things to Warner Brothers and every human who helped bring stories of humanity to life!

Episode 45 - Discovery Buys WarnerMedia
On this incredibly special episode of The AT&WB Podcast, we say goodbye to the AT& portion of the podcast. AT&T has officially sold off it's stake in WB to the folks at Discovery Channel and David Zaslav, who Discovery discovered in 2006, is now steering the entire Warner Brothers boat.
He's making drastic decisions which seem to compromise the artist for the sake of saving a few bucks. We go over everything from the cancelation of BATGIRL, to the erasure of INFINITY TRAIN and the dropped original content on HBO Max to Discovery's breakdown of demographics and the incredibly rich history of systemic racism in the first 100 years of Warner Brothers.
Actor, creative director, friend and entertainment industry hound Brando Cutts joins me to WBreakdown the entirety of the buyout, the rumors of Henry Cavill's return, WB angering creatives such as Nolan and Legendary Entertainment, and I even find the perfect bat-shark repellant joke. We crunch every number from rotten tomato to every dollar SHAZAM made on DVD and Halle's Berry's CATWOMAN made in theaters!

Episode 44 - WBreakdown - The Batman With Grayson Leveque Of Gralaxy Productions
It's our WBreakdown of Matt Reeves' THE BATMAN. I am joined by Grayson Leveque of the Gralaxy Productions YouTube Channel. We talk the similarities The Batman has with the Rebirth Batman. I delve deep in Morrison's run and we WBreakdown THE acting, THE directing, THE scope of the film, and THE psyche of THE Batman. Grayson also created the cover art for this weeks episode!
We also reminisce about family member John Leveque, Grayson's uncle who recently passed away in November 2021. John Leveque was the Supervising Sound Editor on both BATMAN FOREVER and BATMAN AND ROBIN. We talk about the stories he used to tell about recording sounds of actual bats in actual batcaves and the result was harrowing. The lengths John went for great sound effects!
