Episode Summary
This week on Distance NERDing, the crew spirals through Marvel multiverse madness—because who needs one storyline when you can mash-up Secret Wars, House of M, Mojo World, and Days of Future Past all at once? We break down wild rumors, drop some Scarlet Witch theories, argue over Captain America’s “anchor being” status, and even bring tacos to the table (literally). Oh, and we might’ve summoned James Gunn in the process. You’re welcome, internet.
From cons in California and Oregon to anime breaking box office records, this episode is wall-to-wall geeky chaos—just the way we like it.
