For the first time ever, Dad Podz was recorded live in front of a studio audience.  Well, not an audience, and not in strudio.  Technically it was a hotel room, with no A/C and it was hot.  But we were face to face.  We got Marvel trivia. And the majority of our time we cover the MCU phase 4 and talk about the best characters in the MCU since the end of Endgame and it's fall out.  New characters only.  Listen and give us all the love you got!

We would be finishing up our Pre-capping project for the D+ show Loki, but alas, Disney stopped returning our calls and refused to delay the show while DadPodz went on vacation. Do you know how long it has been since we had a vacation? We got to get behind the wheel and hit the open road. It was such a joyous experience we did not even need to threaten children with the 'I will turn this car around' or 'Don't make me come back there.' But we did sprinkle a few gems from the driver's seat like 'Wake me up when we get there,' or when passing cemetery 'People are just dying to get into that place.' But we digress. This episode is a recap of the entire Loki show. It's great! @LokiOfficial @michaelwaldron @iamkateherron @disneyplus

In this episode we continue our DADWATCH series. We breakdown and review Batman: HUSH now streaming on a streaming service that is NOT currently a sponsor, so if you want our plug you are going to have to pay AT&T! This is an animated entry into the DCAU, which thus far has been roughly 1000 times better than the live action DCU. This one doesn't disappoint as it introduces a new Batman Villain, HUSH. We cover the origin in the comics and how it compares to this version. As Batman tries to silence HUSH, we wonder why certain changes were made. We also note that this animated film has gone full PG-13, the occasional curse word and blood splatter abound. Also, is this bigger medical miracle than Batman in The Dark Knight Rises? This was brain surgery and concussions, that was back broken without surgical intervention. Also, where would we be without a mind controlled Superman? Rate, Subscribe, Review.
