Episode Summary:
This week, the chaos is multiversal and delicious! Young Phil, Jenn the Fray, and SHDU are back online (finally escaping the 1700s) and diving into the nerdiest news of the week — from Marvel’s mysterious Phase Six shake-ups to Doctor Doom rumors that could rock the MCU harder than a headbanging mom on Taco Tuesday.
The crew debates mutant supremacy, Elektra’s return, Vision Quest conspiracies, and whether Daredevil should team up with Spider-Man — all while celebrating International Taco Day and somehow working in “moist liquids” and an extremely inappropriate Barney song. Yeah, it’s that kind of night.
Grab your tacos, manifest that pickle-flavored energy drink, and get ready for another hilarious, nerd-packed ride through rumors, rants, and ridiculousness!
