X-Men '97: Ep. 9 (INITIAL REACTIONS)

Ms. Marvel (2022) is our 35th stop in our MCU Rewatch Journey. This was an especially fun episode for us to record because this series contains some of the highest moments in Disney+ history as well as some of the lowest. Listen to us wrestle with this juxtaposition for over 80 minutes. And don't forget to support our partners, Nerd Riot and Organic Priced Books.

We have spent so much time (admittedly really fun time) going through both the Fox-Verse and X-Men '97 these last 12 weeks that we've almost forgotten about some open plot threads within the MCU sacred timeline!  Well, it's time to revisit our beloved MCU. After a quick Deadpool & Wolverine ticket discussion, we spend the rest of today's episode following two rules. First, there shall be no mutant or X-Men talk. Secondly, we won't discuss the "state" of the MCU in any kind of negative fashion.  This is a really fun chance for people to catch up with what has been happening within the MCU these last few years and this was one of our favorite episodes to record this year.  Let's. Grow. Together. Nerd Riot is the official merchandise provider of Friends From Work.

We have a jam-packed episode today! First, we dive into the week old trailer for "Deadpool & Wolverine" and discuss how our expectations for that film have shifted. Secondly, X-Men '97 is nearing its season long conclusion with some epic episodes, and episode 7 was no different. What's working so well with that show? And lastly, "The Newton Brothers" are the musical composers for X-Men '97 and they were kind enough to chat with us for twenty minutes about their work on the series. You won't want to miss this one.
