Episode 8: Thor: The Dark World

The Marvel Gods have left us quite a story to tell-- in our THIRD attempt, we finally managed to make our new microphone setup work (for the most part), and probably put way more effort than most MCU fans would ever dare in dissecting the eighth film in the MCU franchise, 2013's "Thor: The Dark World" (2013). Our take on the much-maligned flick is still pretty entertaining, though, so JOIN US! Hosts Bryan Shirley and Pat Moriarty are a devoted acolyte and newbie to the MCU respectively. Come along with us as we explore every installment of the MCU (in the order of their theatrical release) from these two contrasting viewpoints. Whether you've just discovered the MCU and want to see what it's all about or whether you are already all in and just need new content, we've got the podcast for you!
