To celebrate the release of Avengers: Endgame, Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle devote the entire show to updating and reorganizing their rankings of every film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (except Endgame, which, at the time of this recording, Joel had seen, but Lars hadn’t).

Will they crown a new number one? Where will newer films like Black Panther and Captain Marvel land on the list? Why are online hipsters suddenly defending Age of Ultron? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “Infinity War Vet” by Toussaint Morrison

This week, Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle remember the late, great Stan Lee. Lee, and his body of work, have been frequent topics of discussion on this show over the years, so they do their best to remember Stan and his (somewhat complicated) legacy.

They also discuss the bizarre new movie that they will both be buying tickets for, Detective Pikachu.

How did Detective Pikachu get green-lit? Why was Stan Lee such a lovable conman? Who created Spider-man? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “S70s Comic Interlude Pt.2” by The Duo

With the Winter Olympics currently underway in Sochi, we’ve been hearing a lot of horror stories coming out of Russia. But one thing you may not have heard about is their recent ban on lace panties. Joining together with Kazakhstan and Belarus, Russia is seeking to clear its shelves of any undergarments that fall below a six-percent absorption threshold.

In addition to this confounding new law, Joel Murphy and Lars discuss The Guardians of the Galaxy trailer and Marvel’s current film superiority over DC.

Why are men so insistent on telling women what to wear? Can Lars name 10 DC comic superheroes? What exactly is a six-percent absorption threshold? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
