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.

This week’s music:

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

Why is the Golden Age of TV so poorly lit? Why is Joel turning into Howard Hughes? Do we only elect Presidents that it is fun to do impressions of? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle go down a rabbit hole of bad theatre when Lars decides to share the outline of a play he wrote in high school. This inspires Joel to talk about his own experiences writing original plays for his church youth group.

How many times did Joel see Blade in the theater? What is a freelance social worker? What if God was one of us? The answers to these questions and more are on this week’s show.
