RH: A Batwoman Podcast - Live Q&A
July 31, 2021 20:03 - 1 hour - 98.8 MBWe did a live stream Q&A for Batwoman Season 2, episodes 13, 14, and 15 forever ago and I’m (Shelley) just now posting it as a podcast. We initially combined this with an episode of Supergirl as well, but for listenability I’ve edited it by show the best I could. You might hear us talk about Supergirl (a show you should be watching) or our other podcast, Pod Off Course (a podcast you should be listening to), just think of it as subliminal suggestions and jump on those trains. Endorse...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Initiate Self-Destruct"
May 15, 2021 15:58 - 1 hour - 100 MBWe cover Batwoman 2x12. Sophie’s onto Ryan, we discuss whether Ryan made the right call with Alice, and we reluctantly address Kate’s new mask. We’re not sure about this development for Kate, but we’re so excited to finally have Wallis Day join the cast! We also talk about how terrible Jacob is (as usual), and whether Mary should have been quicker to believe Sophie about his Snakebite problem. We’re on Twitter!

RH: A Batwoman Podcast - Episodes 10 and 11
April 29, 2021 23:59 - 1 hour - 138 MBWe’re trying out live recording! We discuss episodes 2x10 and 2x11 and tackle big questions like: which of Ryan’s potential love interests is best? And has Jacob ever made a correct decision in his life? We’re on Twitter!

RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Rule #1"
April 15, 2021 23:34 - 1 hour - 84.9 MBWe discuss episode 2x09 and wonder how the two of us ended up as die hard fans of a show that is chock full of violence, masks, and violence done by people in masks. Truly off brand for us, but here we are. Other discussions include what Black Mask’s plans are for Kate, Alice’s beautiful and sad breakdown, Jordan Moore’s general awesomeness, and, as always, how much we love Mary.

RH: A Batwoman Podcast - Episodes 7 and 8
March 28, 2021 19:27 - 1 hour - 137 MBWe discuss episodes 2x07 and 2x08. #Batwoman manages to pull off a stellar exposition episode, we find out that Alice’s story only gets sadder and sadder, and Ryan gets to jump out of a plane! Oh also.. Kate is ALIVE! Be warned, we might have gone a little crazy with the tangents this time.

RH: A Batwoman Podcast - Catching Up on Episodes 4 - 6
March 14, 2021 22:42 - 1 hour - 116 MBWe have some catching up to do! We discuss episodes 4-6 of Batwoman season 2. We can essentially boil these episodes down to three questions: What the hell happened on Coryana? Is Ryan part alien or is this just how humans react to Kryptonite? Is Kate really dead after all? We continue to love Ryan, Mary, Luke, and Alice, but we still hate Jacob, and the jury is out on Sophie. Endorsements: Shelley - WandaVision on Disney+ and Still Watching: WandaVision podcast: https://...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Bat Girl Magic!"
March 14, 2021 20:31 - 41 minutes - 56.5 MBIn this episode, we talk about Batwoman season 2, episode 3, “Bat Girl Magic!”. This episode had us questioning whether it would be alright to sit down and shoot the sh!t with Victor Zsasz and that had us questioning our decision making. Ryan’s new Batwoman suit is amazing! She made it her own and we are loving it! We meet Safiyah and she is showing us a side of Alice that we didn’t know was there. This season has been on fire! They are ramping up the gay and curing cancer! What else could y...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Prior Criminal History"
February 14, 2021 02:10 - 49 minutes - 68.2 MBIn this episode, we talk about Batwoman season 2, episode 2, “Prior Criminal History”. This episode has everything: bats in chest cavities, bats in buses, blood bags in coats, casual car stabbings - it was action packed! We are loving Ryan, but not liking how she is being treated, Julia has a really rough episode, and Alice’s plan to get Safiyah’s attention is crazy! We have an idea for a new podcast and we think it has a lot of potential. Endorsements: Shelley - Banana ...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "What Happened to Kate Kane?"
January 25, 2021 15:10 - 1 hour - 92 MBWe discuss the Batwoman season 2 premier (yay!), which we absolutely freakin loved in every way. Kate goes missing (sad face), but Ryan is as amazing as we ever could have hoped, and we just want to hug her forever. Faces are still removed. We tackle questions like: Why is Kate’s batsuit just out in the open on the plane? Is the batsuit one size fits all? Is Ryan actually a character we do know from comic books? This was a fantastic kickoff to the season, and we can’t wait to see what’s to c...
RH Talks: Harley Quinn the Animated Series - Episodes 8 - 13 of Season One
January 17, 2021 16:54 - 1 hour - 161 MBShelley and Erin discuss episodes 8-13 of season 1 of Harley Quinn: The Animated Series. We roll through the last 6 episodes of the season to try to get through as much as possible before Batwoman returns (!!!!) with season 2 on January 17. We discuss how much we hate The Joker (it’s a lot), how deeply messed up Harley’s family is (it’s a lot), and how much Erin loved hearing Shelley have to say inappropriate words while reading an email (it’s a lot). Endorsements: Shelley: DC Comics l...
RH Talks: Harley Quinn the Animated Series - "The Line"
January 15, 2021 03:30 - 26 minutes - 36.4 MBIn this episode, Shelley and Erin discuss Harley Quinn season 1, episode 7 “The Line.” We spend time with the Queen of Fables, whose only redeeming quality is being voiced by Wanda Sykes. Harley realizes that she’s a bad guy, not a bad person, and it’s a very nice lesson learned through very disgusting means. Shelley gets #Batwoman-level traumatized by this episode. You can find us on Twitter! Shelley is @schop23 and Erin is @erniegreenbean. The show’s Twitter pages are @RedHairingPod an...
RH Talks: Harley Quinn the Animated Series - "You’re a Damn Good Cop, Jim Gordon."
November 29, 2020 00:45 - 28 minutes - 38.5 MBIn this episode, Shelley and Erin discuss Harley Quinn season 1, episode 6 “You’re a Damn Good Cop, Jim Gordon.” Harley gets carried away on a job and leaves one of Clayface’s arms behind, prompting the arm to start a friendship with Commissioner Gordon, who really does not have a lot going for him. We find out that arms can have butts, Harley happens upon where Batman f***s the bats, and Erin and Shelley prove once again that they are very good at this podcasting thing (spoiler alert: they...
RH Talks: Harley Quinn the Animated Series - "Being Harley Quinn"
November 22, 2020 00:38 - 27 minutes - 38.4 MBIn this episode we talk about Harley Quinn season 1, episode 5 - “Being Harley Quinn”. Shelley and Erin have never been to a strip club, but learn the rules about going to a strip club in this episode. We get to see Sy in action with his old spy buddy, Golda. They’re reliving the old days by disposing of a bunch of bodies in a brick pizza oven at an abandoned mall. Because what else do you do to get rid of a bunch of bodies? Let the record show, an army of little zombie Harleys are creepy as...
RH Talks Harley Quinn the Animated Series - "Finding Mr. Right"
November 01, 2020 15:26 - 38 minutes - 52.6 MBIn this episode, Shelley and Erin discuss Harley Quinn season 1, episode 4 “Finding Mr. Right.” Harley realizes she needs a nemesis after her villainy goes unnoticed by Gotham, but accidentally finds herself nemeses with a 12-year-old Robin, and kids are gross. We discuss the new characters introduced in this episode, especially Shelley’s favorite problematic landlord, Sy Borgman. We also meet King Shark, who is the funniest 70% shark, 30% human you’ll ever meet. But don’t call him a pet. H...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - Harley Quinn - “So, You Need A Crew?”
October 10, 2020 20:13 - 50 minutes - 69.9 MBIn this episode, Shelley and Erin discuss Harley Quinn season 1, episode 3 “So, You Need A Crew?” Harley attempts to put together a crew to aid her in her quest to get into the Legion of Doom, Ivy continues to be a loner (and might possibly mention that she loves Harley, but don’t make a thing of it), and Frank’s relationship with Ivy continues to be the funniest thing we’ve ever seen. Shelley and Erin tackle terms like “creepy dick” and “tiny boxes,” and they discuss the show’s use of sexis...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - Harley Quinn - "A High Bar"
September 18, 2020 23:24 - 1 hour - 83.3 MBIn this episode, Shelley and Erin attempt to discuss Harley Quinn season 1, episode 2 “A High Bar,” but they mostly get sidetracked by discussions about Lovecraft Country, Tinder, Howie Mandel, people practicing wand maneuvers, and so many other things that have no place on this podcast. There’s also a quick guest appearance from Erin’s partner. When they manage to stay on track, they discuss their continued love for Poison Ivy, whether animated Scarecrow is still scary, and a little bit of...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - Harley Quinn - "Til Death Do Us Part"
September 13, 2020 20:34 - 34 minutes - 47.2 MBIn this episode, Shelley and Erin launch their Red Hairing hiatus project: podcasting about the Harley Quinn Animated series available on DC Universe and HBO Max. Shelley has seen the series before (as you’ll know from the 14 times they endorsed Harley Quinn-related material on the pod), but Erin has not. Now, Shelley can achieve their dream of being there while Erin experiences the beauty of this show for the first time. We walk through the plot of the show (bonkers), discuss what we loved ...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - All the Batwoman News
July 22, 2020 00:31 - 1 hour - 98.3 MBIn this episode, Shelley, Erin, and special guest, Leslie, discuss all of the Batwoman news we have received over the summer leading up to the casting of Javicia Leslie as Ryan Wilder, Batwoman’s new lead. We are thrilled about the casting of Javicia Leslie, but we have some pretty strong concerns about Ryan Wilder’s character description. We discuss where the story might go with Ryan, what her presence means for the show’s supporting characters, and whether we think Kate might eventually co...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "O, Mouse!"
June 21, 2020 16:45 - 1 hour - 103 MBWe recorded this episode on May 24, one day before George Floyd was murdered. We have delayed releasing this because we wanted our focus and your focus to be on the Black Lives Matter movement. We want the focus to be on ending police brutality and racial inequality that continues to permeate the US and the world. We recognize that we all need something to unwind to at the end of the day. If this episode is that for you, please know how happy that makes us and enjoy! *** This episode was r...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - Episodes 118 and 119
May 17, 2020 22:56 - 1 hour - 84.3 MBIn this episode, we use listener feedback to guide our conversation about Batwoman Season 1, episodes 18 “If You Believe in Me, I’ll Believe in you,” and 19 “A Secret Kept from All the Rest.” In a nutshell, this show is so gay and so, so good. We’re still wondering what secrets Julia is keeping, and we think Kate might have some as well. We worry about Mouse’s future of aliveness on this planet. And… why the heck does Alice need Kryptonite? You can find us on Twitter! Shelley is @schop23 ...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "A Narrow Escape"
May 03, 2020 00:33 - 1 hour - 84.2 MBWe’re back! Erin and Shelley discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 17 “A Narrow Escape.” Alice and Mouse establish themselves as major players in Arkham with impressive speed, Luke finds out who kills his dad, and Sophie and Julia are definitely going to kiss soon! Most importantly, the love of our lives, Mary Hamilton, tells Kate that she knows she’s Batwoman in a hope speech that would give Kara Danvers a run for her money. You can find us on Twitter! Shelley is @schop23 and Erin is @ernie...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Through the Looking Glass"
April 01, 2020 20:52 - 54 minutes - 74.5 MBWe discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 16 “Through the Looking Glass.” This episode hurt all of Shelley’s feelings and Erin’s one feeling. We discuss Kate’s betrayal of Alice, whether Kate is right to be concerned about turning into her sister, and what might become of Alice now that her last glimpse of sanity appears to have been erased. Meanwhile, Julia is back, and she makes out with someone, but not the someone we thought it would be. Luke uncovers a conspiracy regarding the murder of his...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Off With Her Head"
March 22, 2020 20:05 - 1 hour - 97.1 MBWe discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 15 “Off With Her Head.” We learn through a series of flashbacks that Alice’s dark past only gets darker and more gross. Shelley and Erin try to process an episode that was, for all intents and purposes, a short horror movie. We discuss Batwoman’s moral code, why Alice wanted Kate to meet August, and how many times is too many times to see the scorched face of a very mean grandma. You can find us on Twitter! Shelley is @schop23 and Erin is @erniegreenb...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Grinning from Ear to Ear"
March 15, 2020 21:12 - 56 minutes - 77.6 MBWe discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 14 “Grinning from Ear to Ear.” Things happened in this episode, but Erin and Shelley aren’t sure what they were, because they have been crying into their pillows ever since they saw the FULLY SKINNED FACE of Duela. We do our best to recap the episode for you, and we obviously make time to express our continued undying affection for Mary Hamilton, but can everyone please just keep their f$%&ing faces on for five minutes? Once we get over the face thing, w...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Drink Me"
March 03, 2020 01:41 - 1 hour - 96.2 MBWe discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 13 “Drink Me.” This episode went back to the villain of the week format, but not without giving us some major plot points. Mary figured out the secret! Sophie made out with Batwoman! Alice is holding full conversations with a skin mask attached to a mannequin! THINGS. ARE. CRAZY. We talk about how we think that Batwoman should be in the conversation about the best shows currently on tv, and Erin gets repeated visits from their pets. Shelley and Erin list...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Take Your Choice"
February 26, 2020 01:52 - 1 hour - 85 MBWe discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 12 “Take Your Choice.” Shelley and Erin get sad about Beth’s fate and then get very scared about Alice’s renewed sense of hatred toward Kate. Was this Alice’s last chance at redemption? As always, we gush about how great Mary Hamilton is and beg the show to just let Mary in on the secret. We also take a moment to appreciate Alice’s hallucination of Catherine Hamilton. She was so fierce in her imaginary heels. Things are getting intense, y’all. You can...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "An Un-Birthday Present"
February 12, 2020 14:21 - 57 minutes - 78.5 MBWe discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 11 “An Un-Birthday Present.” Erin and Shelley were hoping they wouldn’t have to bring back the podcast motto “keep your f#$%ing face on,” but here we are again. This episode had everything: Beth, Alice, Beth as Alice, people impaled on rebar, people setting cars on fire (apparently the wrong way), Kate getting hit by a truck (again), and Mary Hamilton being the smart and emotionally evolved queen we all know and love. You can find us on Twitter! Shell...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "How Queer Everything is Today!"
January 26, 2020 22:22 - 1 hour - 86.1 MBWe discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 10 “How Queer Everything is Today!” Batwoman is back, and Erin and Shelley are on the Hot Mess Express, because they recorded this episode well past their bedtimes. Our top five things this week: Batwoman is a lesbian (and gave a tell-all interview to Kara Freakin’ Danvers!), Alice is off the deep end, Parker Torres as The Terrier, Mary being a sweet angel and trying to save Jacob, and A DIFFERENT EARTH’S BETH WAS THROWN INTO EARTH PRIME AFTER THE CRISIS...
Crisis on Infinite Earths: Episodes 4 - 5
January 19, 2020 20:39 - 1 hour - 60.6 MBShelley and Erin talk about the final two hours of Crisis on Infinite Earths. As you can probably guess, we are dying to see Lena and know what she’s up to after retaining her memories on Earth Prime. We love to hate Lex, but we need him to bounce over to Superman and Lois (#NoPodThough). We have a lot of questions and a few hot takes about the things left out of the resolution to Crisis, but we’re still glad it happened and that you all stuck with us while we spiraled into our Crisis obsess...
Special Crisis Giant #1 Episode
January 12, 2020 03:03 - 45 minutes - 28.9 MBShelley and Erin talk about Crisis Giant #1, which gives us some offscreen insight into what else was happening during Hour 2 of the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover. We are mostly very confused about how this story could possibly have happened in that timeframe and why the villain, Outkast, never shakes it like a Polaroid picture. Crisis Giant #1 also contained a Lex Luthor story that shows us just how smug (and endlessly entertaining) Earth-38 Lex really is. Crisis Giant #1 was, ultimat...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "A Mad Tea-Party"
January 05, 2020 19:56 - 57 minutes - 78.5 MBWe’re back! This week, Shelley and Erin discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 8, “A Mad Tea-Party”. We break down the episode into what we thought were the 5 most important moments and cover some smaller things as we go along. There is a brief “Cats” interlude, and we are so sorry about that. You can find us on Twitter! Shelley is @schop23 and Erin is @erniegreenbean. The show’s Twitter pages are @RedHairingPod and @PodOffCourse, and you can also contact us at [email protected] and po...
Crisis on Infinite Earths: Episodes 1-3
December 17, 2019 02:26 - 3 hours - 128 MBIn this special episode, Shelley and Erin discuss the first three episodes of the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover event. We loosely go episode by episode, but make sure you’re caught up on all 3 hours before you listen, because we do mention future events in our discussion. This episode is, as expected, quite long, so check out the guide below if you want to skip around or break up your listening: Hour 1, Supergirl: 1:36-34:04 Hour 2, Batwoman: 34:04-1:26:20 Hour 3, The Flash: 1:2...
Special Crisis Theories Episode
December 08, 2019 19:48 - 2 hours - 215 MBIn this special episode, Shelley and Erin prepare for the impending Crisis On Infinite Earths crossover starting on Supergirl on Sunday, December 8th at 8pm. We start with a recap of the crisis-related events that have happened in each Arrowverse show up until now, and then we dive into our theories, hopes, and a decent amount of fears about what’s going to happen. The Arrowverse recap ends at 41:02 if you want to skip straight to the theories section. Stay tuned for an outtake after the dis...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Tell Me the Truth"
November 24, 2019 17:14 - 1 hour - 103 MBIn this episode, we discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 7 “Tell Me The Truth”. Kate teams up with Alfred Pennyworth’s daughter, Julia, to take down an assassin known as “The Rifle” who is working with Alice to kill anyone who knows how to replicate the coil accelerator. Alice exchanges the coil accelerator for a vile of yet-to-be-determined poison, but steals the coil itself, making the gun useless and potentially angering a mystery villain named Safiyah. The show delves deeper into Kate and ...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "I'll Be Judge, I'll Be Jury"
November 19, 2019 02:51 - 1 hour - 99.8 MBIn this episode, we discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 6 “I’ll Be Judge, I’ll Be Jury”. The villain of the week goes by the name “The Executioner,” but we know a Scarecrow mask when we see one. As the Executioner takes down a cabal of corrupt law enforcement officials, Batwoman and Jacob Kane race to see who can stop him first. Meanwhile, we finally learn more about Luke’s backstory, and Mary continues to be everyone’s hero by confronting Sophie about her tumultuous history with Kate. Alice ...
Special Mini-Episode: Crisis on Infinite Earths Trailer
November 17, 2019 20:58 - 29 minutes - 19.1 MBVIDEO COMPANION TO SPECIAL EPISODE: https://youtu.be/o61xVdde8_w Just before we were set to record Pod Off Course: A Supergirl Podcast and Red Hairing: A Batwoman Podcast this week, The CW dropped a one minute and thirty second trailer for Crisis on Infinite Earths, this year’s major Arrowverse crossover. We dropped everything and recorded this special mini-episode, where they discuss the trailer frame by frame (with a healthy amount of pausing to freak out, of course). You can listen to t...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Mine Is a Long and a Sad Tale"
November 08, 2019 02:17 - 1 hour - 102 MBIn this episode, we discuss Batwoman Season 1, episode 5 “Mine Is a Long and a Sad Tale.” Alice tells Kate about what happened to her in the aftermath of their car accident 15 years ago, and Mary deals with the revelation that her mother, Catherine, lied about finding Beth’s remains. Shelley and Erin try to work through their emotions about all of the creepy events that occur in this episode, but mostly just use a lot of profanity and establish the podcast’s new motto: Keep Your F***ing Face...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Who Are You?"
November 02, 2019 19:32 - 57 minutes - 78.9 MBIn this episode, we discuss Batwoman season 1, episode 4 “Who Are You?” The show continues its “villain of the week” format by introducing Magpie, a jewel thief with a proclivity for explosives. Kate tries to find a balance her new relationship and her Batwoman duties. Alice confronts Catherine Hamilton, leading to a grotesque scene that will haunt Shelley forever.

RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "Down Down Down"
October 28, 2019 03:30 - 1 hour - 83.1 MBIn this episode, we discuss Batwoman Season 1, Episode 3 “Down Down Down”. A new villain makes his debut in Gotham. Not to be out done, Alice lets herself in to the Kane penthouse and finds proof that Kate never stopped looking for her. Sophie becomes Mary’s bodyguard, but is giving off jealous ex vibes. Batwoman finally gets her full suit and her name! Outtake after the outro music - our phones are spies. Endorsements Shelley: Batman: The Complete Hush https://www.comixology.com/...
RH: A Batwoman Podcast - "The Rabbit Hole"
October 20, 2019 15:27 - 55 minutes - 75.6 MBIn this episode, we discuss Batwoman Season 1, Episode 2 “The Rabbit Hole”. We see how crazy Alice is and it is “should be viewed after 10pm” crazy. We are glad Kate and Alice had a chance to talk and love the beautiful cinematography that ensued. Mary is badass and nobody’s victim and her mom has at least one foot in sketchy waters. There is also another funny outtake that is the result of staying up way past one’s bedtime, specifically Shelley’s bedtime. Endorsements Shelley: Comi...
RH Ep101 "Pilot"
October 13, 2019 14:57 - 57 minutes - 78.6 MBIn our inaugural episode, we discuss Batwoman Season 1, Episode 1 “Pilot”. We talk about the characters in the show and their comic book history. We revel in all of the identities and traits that set Kate Kane apart from other characters in TV and comics. We delve into the shocking history of Alice and how she is connected to Kate. There is also a funny outtake from our first recording that is the result of staying up way past one’s bedtime. Endorsements Shelley: Batwoman: Elegy (tra...
