Description

On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner, Sam and Ivan are joined by Pete, who has been begging for weeks to talk about Superman. So they talk about Superman. Specifically, the intention is to talk about the 2025 Superman movie, but to get there, they talk about lots of older Superman too. And then, yes, after that, they do move on to the news of the week for the second half of the show.
