Welcome to Level Seven

All the moving pieces come blasting on their collision course, providing a lot of resolution for all these loose threads. But ultimately, everyone is on a collision course to a big reunion for our team, as everyone is finally on earth! But then there's that cliffhanger . . . Join Ben as he explores this […]

There's people on a course, and those courses are about to collide! We've got part of our crew coming from space, part of our crew are rolling with Sarge, and part of our crew are flying in with SHIELD. And everyone is heading in the same direction.

Sarge: he's large and in charge. He's the man with the plan, just like Coulson, but his moral mathematics are very different. Ben and Stewart explore the space gambling, the Deke shenanigans, and the head to head/mano a mano between Mac and Sarge. Also: fire breath.

Spider-Man swings across Europe with his classmates, some SHIELD agents, and two super idiotic teachers. It makes for a great summer vacation, but does it make for a good movie? Ben, Samantha, and Stewart talk about the ups and the downs. Also, we talk about the news that Agent of SHIELD will be cancelled after […]

What is this episode? A bottle episode? A flashback episode? A budget saving episode? An episode that is one of the best of the entire series? This episode's hosts, Ben and Samantha, might say “all of the above.” Go back to Fitz and Simmons roots and take a deep dive in their psyche with us!

Three threads come together as May brings in the truck and Daisy brings in the spaceship to join Mack in the Lighthouse in an episode that gives us some backstory on the Shrike and some flashbacks to Coulson. World building and backstories are front and center in this episode! And in post-credit, Ben talks about […]

What's Deke been up to in the last year? Well, if you guessed running a start up tech company . . . you are either very lucky or much more intuitive than most people! We also get some body horror and more answers about Sarge! Next episode: probably Cloak and Dagger 2×10 . . . […]

Ty and Tandy are on the hunt for Andre! Andre is on the hunt for that elusive blue note! Mayhem is on the hunt for answers! It's the next to last episode of the season! Post credit – Ben talks a little bit about the new Swamp Thing series on DC Universe.

And so we get a comedy episode as Agents of SHIELD references Star Wars, Hunter S. Thompson, Terry Gilliam, and more, as we spend more time in space. Ben and Samantha discuss this newest episode of Agents of SHIELD. Next episode: Cloak and Dagger episode 9!

A tale of four crews: Daisy and Simmons' crew, Fitz's ship full of xenophobes, Sarge's team, and the SHIELD crew. This episode has twists and turns and a really awesome fight scene. Also, a post-credit quick review of James Gunn's Brightburn.

There's a lot of transactions happening in this episode: Tandy playing video games for Tyrone's life; Evita getting a new “relationship” in exchange for a new role in life; Adina trading a confession for a favor from Delgado, who's turning around his life; Mayhem and Brigid making a bargain to merge into one life; and […]

The mystery of the “dark place” (or “infinite black”) deepens as the motivations of Connors comes front and center, while we have some thoughts about the nature of art and how it affects us. Ben and Stewart have a fun conversation about it.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is BACK!!! And with a new season, we get a new normal! Some agents are in space! Some agents are on missions! Some agents are new! Some agents are old! And then there's the return of an old, familiar face . . . Ben and Samantha take a look! Next episode: Cloak […]

Ben flies solo as he discusses an episode where Tandy realizes that she's NOT alone.

Ben and Samantha jump into this episode, and it's full of surprises! Betrayals that may not be! Lies that sounds true! Truths that sound like lies! And if we know who the Farmer is meant to be . . . who is the Viper??? Next episode: Cloak and Dagger episode 6!

The biggest movie of all time is here. It's huge. And we talk about it. Because that's what we do. Because we love the MCU. This movie has one job: wrap up a series of movies going back ten years, with 22 installments. Does it succeed? Find out what we think here, and please let […]

Cloak and Dagger continues as we get a glimpse of what's inside the “cloak”! Connors and Mayhem are trapped inside and Tandy is going in to get them, while Tyrone needs help outside when the gang he help bust finds out who he is! Post credit discussion: the book THANOS: TITAN CONSUMED by Barry Lyga, […]

With the SUPERSONIC Pod Comics Kickstarter in full swing, here's something we hope to be relevant to your interests: a short preview episode written by Ben! This is a story that serves as a kickstart itself — a short story setting up the style of stories that SUPERSONIC Pod Comics will features, while also introducing […]

In episode 3, we see what kind of mayhem that Mayhem has been up to in the last eight months. And we also see a LOT of dualities! But we are united on one single idea: we like what we see. Ben's new superhero project still has its Kickstarter going on and it can be […]

Cloak and Dagger have returned! And the season is off to a great start! Join Ben and Stewart as they talk through episode 1 together, and then Ben explores episode 2 on his own. Ben's new superhero project can be found here:http://welcometolevelseven.com/supersonic

They keep burying another . . . truth . . . emotion . . . friend . . . They just can't be open and honest, except Jonah who starts out the episode REALLY open and honest. Ben and Samantha talk about it. Ben also talks about his new project: http://welcometolevelseven.com/supersonic – a superhero audio […]

The new friend the Runaways made has revealed his true colors, and we get to see what's down in the pit at the dig site . . . “rock bottom”, if you would. Next episode: Runaways episode 6!

Captain Marvel has come to theaters and she brought Nick Fury and Agent Coulson with her! She also brought some controversy, unfortunately. And she brought some 90s style girl power! And Ben, Stewart, and Samantha talk about it!

The story is moving forward, but before Frank can do anything he needs to resupply! So the search is on for more guns and ammo. There's some cat and mouse and there's a big car chase and, of course, there's some Odd Couple shenanigans! And Ben and Stewart are here to talk about it!

Flashbacks! A naked guy tied to an office chair! Philosophies of torture! All this and more in the newest episode of The Odd Couple! Also, we get to see the mission they talked about in Daredevil season 2! And more literature references, this time a poem you possibly studied in high school literature!
