## Resource

Sixty years ago, ABC's "Batman" premiered, revolutionizing both television and popular culture. Back in 2014, Gilbert and Frank tracked down the caped crusader of the swinging sixties (and their childhoods), the legendary Adam West, who happily shared his memories of everyone from Gary Cooper to Jackie Gleason and joked about some of his more “challenging” gigs (“Voodoo Island” anyone?). Also in this episode: Adam duets with Dino, makes history with William Shatner and pays Gilbert one of the greatest compliments of his career. PLUS: The origin of the Batusi! Liberace gets tough! Adam turns down the part of 007! And Batman and the Riddler go to an orgy!? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
