Anna Peppard continues to never miss! A brilliant summation of the recent return of cheesecake! As someone who was put off from Marvel for decades due specifically to Carol’s depiction, I couldn’t agree more!

And similarly, what are some of the ways Magneto’s ownership under a large corporate IP affects his politics? What moments have been hamstrung by that attachment and what moments have pulled through in spite of it?

What’s your opinion on the immediate resurrection of Magneto in Excalibur (v3?) following Morrison’s New X-Men? Is it inevitable corporate interference on a legacy character? Claremont using his gravitas to undo characterization he didn’t like? A good opportunity for the character? Something else?

Welcome to SubteXtMen, a podcast focused on the literary adventures of Marvel’s merry mutants! Join your host, Chapman Blake, as they work alongside a plethora of wonderful guests to bring you monthly recaps of the X-Men’s adventures in prose.
The logo for the SubteXtMen podcast. It features the words “Subtext Men” in classic red and blue comics font on top an archaic looking speech bubble. The words “a podcast” are in white below the speech bubble. The speech bubble extends from a red and blue book in classic comics style. The background is green with blue speckles ala old school comics coloring.

Oh Gosh, Oh Golly, Oh Wow was hosted by three collegiate academics analyzing every issue of Excalibur, and it remains one of my favorites! Graymalkin Lane is queer focused and covers the early stuff Jay and Miles sped through, and X-Men Horoscopes is great to get to know X-adajacent folks!

RFK Jr. wants to eradicate autistic people and also has no idea what an autistic person is
"These are kids who will never pay taxes," Kennedy declared. "They'll never hold a
job. Theyl never play baseball. They'Il never write a poem. They'll never go out
" on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted. We have to recognize
doing this to our children.

Both a great review, and a description of some shit child me would eat tf up, so I don’t feel bad for all the millennials guys I’ve said, “oh this one’s great” to at my job (I say that about every movie I remotely recognize, tbf. Half of retail feels like I’m a live action sensory video for adults)

I don’t see a lot of people saying it, but one huge difference between latchkey/TV/console kids, even 00s internet, is the inherent design and curation put into that programming vs the Wild West that is YouTube content farms. Scripted sitcoms with some lessons =\= Elsa impregnates Sonic videos

What’s your take on her statements re-prisons and pardoning drug offenders? I might be rocking old talking points from 2020 and am def not trying to be divisive! Just curious about your take since I know it’ll be well informed cause of your job!

Yeah, her big break was Uncut Gems, but she’s got a kid, too, so I think she’s just stayed in the New York scene post-Kanye, who she dated partially as an “I can fix him” attempt that she seems to now regret. I never saw UG, but I heard she’s a great actress, so fingers crossed she does something

Julia Fox? She’s continued to be popular in modeling/influencer scenes, mostly in NYC from what I understand. She also just did an interview with Charlie xcx cause she’s referenced in the chorus of a huge single off her new album, Brat, called 360. Very popular with gen Z and below, tbh

I wanna send you a list of artists that play along that spectrum now, I’ve been living in that “sleepover pop” zone sonically for a hot minute and would love to hear where you land on a few of them!

I’m def biased cause she’s from a tiny town near where I went to school, so we’ve all been rooting for her for the last few years I think she manages to put just enough hyperpop qualities onto the 80s sound to alienate, but her live vocals are so insane. I figured you’d love her aesthetic on TD!

I always thought it built up the suspense/false triumph of the moment, which then made the Donkey interruption scene feel that much more human in a show that struggles against going full spectacle all the time

Catching up for the finale and got through this tonight! Question for the guest and crew, I couldn’t help but notice how Brian is always depowered throughout the series, but never loses his muscle mass, do y’all feel that this choice was intentional? Would Meg stay with a scrawny Brian re CB Vol 1?
