by
Robin - Page 6

For baby boomers and classic TV fans, the name Burt Ward is instantly recognizable as the loyal and extremely excitable Robin on the campy “Batman” series which ran on ABC from 1966-1968.

On a recent podcast in which Tyson was narrowing down the most scientifically-accurate super hero (because that’s what astrophysicists do in their spare time), Tyson’s co-host, comedian and radio personality Chuck Nice, makes an all-too-familiar string of cracks at the true nature of Batman and Robin’s relationship.
