A self-indulgent and off-topic Marvelous Marathon episode? Who would have thought! It’s Wil’s birthday this week, so instead of watching another Marvel movie (yawn), he’s finally taking Katelyn (and you the audience) through his oft-mentioned plan to re-work the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s “Multiverse Saga” (That’s everything after Avengers: Endgame). Re-ordering/re-imagining/re-casting some of yo...

Thank Goodness! Wil and Katelyn are here to discuss the newest Marvel Movie, Wicked: For Good. Joined by Friend of the Pod™ Kelly, they all discuss the inherent weirdness of Act Two of Wicked, the inherent sexiness of Jonathan Bailey, and the complete nothingburger-ness of this movie’s new songs. Who can say if they have been changed for the better, but they certainly have been changed For Good. T...

Wil and Katelyn reach back into the Marvelous Mailbag to answer YOUR burning questions about all things Marvel and otherwise. They also provide updates on the current state of Pop Queens and the absolute tomfoolery happening on The Morning Show (CRUDUP NATION). Wil tries his best to reel Katelyn in as she simultaneously recaps and eulogizes Stranger Things and forces Wil to make predictions for th...

Listen. Cards on the table. We hated this one. So in quite a deviation from our normal format, we recap the plot of this one in forty five seconds and then kind of just talk about our favorite lines and reminisce about the Arizona Science Center for the rest of the ep. Listen in as the episode—and both of us—kinda fall to pieces. The greatest hits and dumbest bits: Wil struggles to remember any sc...

Wil and Katelyn are FINALLY back to the premise of the podcast and are watching a Marvel Movie. And not just any movie, but the complete and utter nothingburger that is Fantastic Four: Dawn of the… er… War of the… uh, wait… oh yeah, Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007). They introduce a new exciting game while trying to get to the bottom of whose fault this movie is. Try not to fall asleep during this...

If you like discussion of hot dogs and one man struggling to read several incoherent sentences, have we got an episode for you! Just in time to reflect on if they were too hard on 2025’s Superman, Wil and Katelyn throw themselves into the weird and wacky hijinks of Superman II (1980). Join them as they discuss the glorious fanfiction aura emanating off of this film, and the bizarre plot synopsis o...

For the final installment of Katelyn Month, your fearless co-hosts torture themselves with one of the worst movies ever featured on this podcast: the 2015 Disney Channel Original Movie, Descendants. In a refreshing change of pace from last week’s tussle, Wil and Katelyn are on the exact same page about this trainwreck (except for the best song). They both—quite frankly—freak out as they get to the...

Hop on the bus; we’re headed to Sky High! Katelyn month continues as she and her Hero Support Wil discuss the 2005 superhero epic. If you thought their disagreement on F4 was intense, buckle up. Will they cement themselves as permanent enemies, or will the power of friendship allow them to overcome their differing opinions and Save The Citizen? At least they agree on the HELLO moment that is Warre...

It’s all happening! Katelyn uses her first of three birthday picks to force Wil to finally watch his life story: Almost Famous (2000). No, seriously, Wil is literally William Miller. Don’t talk about it for too long or else Katelyn will get all weepy. The two of them discuss what it really means to be “cool”, and what makes Almost Famous the best movie ever. You’re gonna have to reel them in. The...

A nearly FOUR hour episode? How fitting! Katelyn eats her words and does the one thing she swore she’d never do: see The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Wil and Katelyn definitively answer the question of whether or not these are “their guys”, whether or not Wil’s impression of Ben Grimm is good (or even accurate), and whether or not JQuinn is hot in this movie. But when faced with deciding what the...

Flame on! Wil and Katelyn launch headfirst into the second half of Super Fantastic July with 2005’s Fantastic Four. Join them on the journey through this unfortunately forgettable plot, the goofy characters, and the Chris Evans of it all. In true MM fashion, they focus only on the important details: how much a digital camera cost in 2005, whether or not a bar is playing a physical record in 2005,...

Look up! Wil and Katelyn try to avoid getting doxxed for their opinions on the new Superman movie. Listen as they chronicle the good, the bad, and the ugly pants.

It’s a bird! It’s a Blague! No, it’s Superman: The Movie (1978)! Wil exposes Katelyn’s insane DC movie history to the masses, and catalogues the comically villainous producers and overall behind-the-scenes drama of this iconic blockbuster. Wil and Lois Lane both fangirl over Superman, and Katelyn inundates Wil with five hundred questions that he simply does not have answers to. You’ll believe a ma...

Wil and Katelyn reach back into the Marvelous Mailbag and answer more listener questions with thoughtful analysis (see: the dumbest ideas you’ve ever heard). They eulogize MuppetVision3D, laud Trap (2024), and apologize to all of the gay nerds who “um, actually”d them. While discussing the way that their opinions on the MCU have changed over the years, movies that they feel spiritually connected t...

Wil and Katelyn watch every Marvel Movie Ever… except for when they want to talk to YOU! They answer the most pressing and important listener questions, such as “Which one of the two of you would have disappeared during The Snap?” ( DidThanosKill. Me ) and “What genres would you like to see the MCU explore?”. They also discuss their most beloved albums of the year so far: Djo’s “The Crux” and Lady...

Tune in as they dissect the surprisingly striking action sequences, get a bit weepy over the character relationships, genera...

Wil and Katelyn catapult into the 90’s with one of Marvel’s more gory offerings: Blade (1998).

In the pilot episode of the project that will likely grow to define the rest of their young lives, Wil and Katelyn watch one of the most divisive movies of all time, and the technical First Marvel Movie: Howard the Duck (1986). Wil brings the tale of how this movie came to be, and Katelyn makes sure no one walks away from here without a firm understanding of just how much she hated this film. Join...
