I can hardly bring myself to say those words. The thought of this being the end is almost too much to bear, even though, if I’m being honest, I’ve never actually listened to a single episode. But still! It feels like losing a part of myself. The world without Clay McCormack and Sean Murphy diving into the animated Bat-universe? I don’t even want to imagine it. I don’t have to have listened to know what a treasure this podcast has been…probably.   Today, Clay and Sean are tackling two monumental episodes: *Unmasked* from *Batman Beyond*, and *Epilogue* from *Justice League Unlimited*.

Clay and Sean say it’s over, but could it return someday? Possibly? Maybe? Perhaps? The ambiguity is tearing me apart!   So, join me in this emotional rollercoaster as we celebrate this spectacular finale—or not—with Clay, Sean, and their signature…","meta_description":"Welcome, Bat-fans, to the *final* episode of *The BATTASS Podcast*.
