42 | Iron Man 2 and Thor

Our MCU panel (Lizzie, Pax, Rob, and Michael) are back to talk about the middle two movies of Marvel's Phase 1: Iron Man 2 and Thor. Opinions are certainly divided on the first film and there's also some disagreement about who Thor should be dating, so get your opinions ready and see who you agree with.

41 | Build-a-Sitcom

Michael and Rob welcome Rob's son, Ben Graham, to the show to create situation comedies in which each panelist is a character surrounded by other characters from existing sitcoms. As opposed to the non-existent sitcoms that we're imagining. It'll make sense when you listen, I promise.

40 | Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk

The plan was for Lizzie Twachtman, Paxton Holley, Rob Graham, and Michael May to briefly discuss each of the films in Phase One of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But in a shocking turn of events, the panel had a lot to say and only got through the first two films (plus some opinions about Ang Lee's Hulk from 2003). Clearly we're not going to get through this project as quickly as we originally imagined, but please enjoy this in-depth discussion of the first two films in the MCU and we'll be back soon to talk about a couple more.
