It's a special origin episode for John Stewart, in which we learn all about why his dad was shooting apples off his head way back in Pilot. And the answer isn't what we expected! Sure, this one halts the momentum the series had built up with the main mystery plot but this flashback is exceptionally good, nuanced and full of incredible character work and acting. So we'll look past the interruption this time but TV shows need to quit doing this. Also: we go into a ton of Green Lantern lore, proving that most of the complaints folks online have about this one are because they've never read a comic book in their life (derogatory). Before that: the one thing that could get us interested in a Robocop TV show. Chris Hansen is running scared. James Gunn may have re-upped his DC contract. We give moviegoing advice. And so much more! If you don't care about any of that skip right to 1:07:44.Want your questions answered on the show?

D23 delivered some HUGE announcements for Marvel fans, and we're breaking down the biggest news, trailers, casting reveals, and theories coming out of the event! In this episode of SuperHero Homies, we dive into the new Avengers: Doomsday trailer, the latest MCU X-Men casting announcements, Doctor Doom, Incursions, Mr. Sinister, Jean Grey, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Kingdom Hearts, and the premiere of DC's Lanterns! AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY TRAILER BREAKDOWN We start with the new Avengers: Doomsday trailer and everything it potentially reveals about Marvel's next massive crossover event. We discuss: • Doctor Doom's role in Avengers: Doomsday • Could Doom experience a heel turn during the movie? • Doctor Doom's potential motivations and master plan • Why Incursions may be the REAL threat • How Incursions work in Marvel Comics • Which Avengers could die in Doomsday • The movie's biggest trailer reveals • How Doomsday could set up Avengers: Secret Wars • Our theories for the future of the MCU Doctor Doom may be positioned as the movie's major antagonist, but we're theorizing that the true threat could be much bigger than any individual villain. With the Multiverse collapsing and Incursions threatening entire realities, could Doom actually become necessary to saving the MCU? And with the stakes this high, we're asking the painful question: Which Avengers aren't making it out alive? MCU X-MEN CASTING & THEORIES Next, we dive into the new X-Men casting announcements and theorize about Marvel Studios' upcoming 2028 X-Men movie. We discuss: • The new MCU X-Men cast • Which mutants could join the team • What Marvel's version of the X-Men could look like • Mr. Sinister's potential role • Could Mr. Sinister be the main villain? • Jean Grey's future in the MCU • Mutants finally becoming a major part of Marvel Studios • How the X-Men could connect to the post-Secret Wars MCU We also discuss Jean Grey's role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day and how her story could directly influence the upcoming X-Men movie. Could Spider-Man actually help lay the groundwork for Marvel's mutant era? MR. SINISTER We get particularly nerdy discussing Mr. Sinister, his comic book history, obsession with mutant genetics, and why he could be an excellent villain for the MCU's first major X-Men story. After years of Magneto dominating X-Men adaptations, is it finally time for another classic mutant villain to take center stage? KINGDOM HEARTS RETURNS! We also briefly discuss the surprising announcement of a new Kingdom Hearts TV series and a new Kingdom Hearts game. What could a Kingdom Hearts television adaptation even look like? How heavily will Disney characters be involved? And are we prepared to once again pretend we understand the Kingdom Hearts timeline? LANTERNS EPISODE 1 Finally, we jump over to DC Studios for our thoughts on the first episode of Lanterns. And so far... We really like it! We discuss our first impressions, the show's characters, mystery, tone, and why we're excited to see where the series takes Hal Jordan, John Stewart, and the Green Lantern mythology. JOIN THE DISCUSSION What was the biggest D23 announcement? What is Doctor Doom's real plan? Which Avengers survive Doomsday? Who should join the MCU X-Men? Could Mr. Sinister finally get his time to shine? And what did YOU think of Lanterns Episode 1? Let us know in the comments!

This week, Da7e and Neil are time-hopping through the origins of John Stewart and his complicated path toward Green Lantern candidacy.In The Calm [04:58], they assess the show's levels of wokeness. And with the help of numerous emails from listeners, they continue to theorize about the Lanterns rings and the "imperfect system" of choosing candidates.Then in The Storm [52:20], they attempt to predict how the rest of the season will be paced and whether there is a classic Damon Lindelof show narrative pivot right around the corner.Next week, Lanterns returns with a fourth episode that gets back to the conversation with Hal and Sinestro and maybe, just maybe, brings in some big action beats.To interact with the show, send your comments and questions to stormofspoilers@gmail.com, and follow us on Twitter/X and Bluesky @Da7eandNeil.You can also support Da7e and Neil and get all kinds of bonus content (from the Game of Thrones era to the LOST rewatch to our Twin Peaks rewatch project to our current Adventure Pod and Dark watch project) by subscribing to our Patreon here: patreon.com/Da7eandNeil

“Lanterns” so far is more cop drama than cosmic weirdness, and comic book historian Jessica Plummer isn't convinced the trade was worth it. She joins Matthew Fox to dig into the first two episodes of HBO Max's new John Stewart and Hal Jordan series, working through what an adaptation owes its source material and where reinterpretation turns into replacement.They get into the show's stripped-down approach to Green constructs, John Stewart's rewritten comics backstory, and why the human sheriff might be the character worth rooting. Is this really a Green Lantern story, or just a good show wearing the name?Full show notes and resourcesConnect with Jessica Plummer: Website**************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, an Ethical Panda podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

We're haggard and recovering from illness, but we're still talking HBO's Lanterns!We discuss episode 1x02, “Trust Fall”! Why is John able to keep that bird construct alive while unconscious? Is Antaan Atrocitus, or he a, ahem, red herring? Is William Macon Green Arrow, or he working for him? Wait, where are all the patients in this hospital?There's so much to discuss!

Os anéis estão carregados e o Reflix 182 está no ar! Desta vez, Brunão e Baconzitos mergulham no primeiro episódio de Lanternas, uma das séries mais aguardadas do novo universo da DC e que acaba de estrear na HBO Max. E pode esquecer, pelo menos por enquanto, a ideia de uma aventura espacial tomada por batalhas cósmicas. Lanternas escolhe outro caminho: coloca Hal Jordan e John Stewart no centro de uma investigação policial cercada de mistérios, estranhezas e sinais de que existe algo muito maior escondido sob a aparente tranquilidade do interior dos Estados Unidos. A série estreou em 16 de agosto, terá oito episódios lançados semanalmente e traz Kyle Chandler como Hal Jordan e Aaron Pierre como John Stewart. A criação é de Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof e Tom King, com produção da DC Studios e Warner Bros. Television. Lanternas encontra sua própria identidade? Essa é uma das principais perguntas do novo Reflix. Desde os primeiros minutos, Lanternas deixa claro que pretende se afastar da fórmula tradicional das produções de super-heróis. O ponto de partida é uma ocorrência que Hal Jordan acredita ter origem extraterrestre e que acaba colocando o veterano Lanterna Verde e seu ainda inexperiente substituto, John Stewart, diante de um mistério que vai muito além de uma investigação comum. O clima é de suspense policial, com uma história mais terrena, personagens carregados de conflitos e uma estrutura que não tem pressa de revelar todas as suas cartas. Mas essa combinação funciona? Hal Jordan e John Stewart são o coração da estreia No Reflix 182, Brunão e Baconzitos detalham a relação entre os dois protagonistas e como o primeiro episódio utiliza justamente suas diferenças para sustentar a história. De um lado está Hal Jordan, experiente, desgastado e nada empolgado com a perspectiva de passar o bastão. Do outro, John Stewart, disciplinado, desconfiado e tentando entender não apenas como usar o poder que recebeu, mas qual é exatamente o seu lugar nessa história. A tensão entre veterano e novato rapidamente se transforma em um dos elementos mais interessantes da série. E Kyle Chandler e Aaron Pierre mostram desde a estreia que a química entre os personagens pode ser uma das principais forças de Lanternas. True Detective com anéis de poder? A comparação é inevitável — e o próprio projeto foi apresentado desde cedo como uma história investigativa ambientada na Terra. Só que o Reflix vai além da comparação. Brunão e Baconzitos discutem se essa mistura entre drama policial, ficção científica e universo de super-heróis realmente encontra equilíbrio, o quanto a série aproveita a mitologia dos Lanternas Verdes e se essa abordagem mais contida consegue entregar a grandiosidade que os personagens carregam nos quadrinhos. E, claro, tem aquele final. Sem entregar aqui o que acontece, o primeiro episódio deixa uma enorme pergunta sobre a mesa e muda completamente a maneira como podemos enxergar o restante da temporada. O novo DCU está no caminho certo? Lanternas também representa mais uma peça importante na construção do universo comandado por James Gunn e Peter Safran. Por isso, além de discutir o episódio isoladamente, o Reflix 182 olha para o que a série pode representar dentro desse novo DCU, as conexões já colocadas na mesa e as possibilidades abertas para Hal Jordan, John Stewart e toda a mitologia dos Lanternas Verdes. Valeu a espera? A abordagem policial funciona? Kyle Chandler convence como Hal Jordan? Aaron Pierre é o John Stewart que os fãs esperavam? Dê o play no Reflix 182 e venha discutir com Brunão e Baconzitos. ⚠️ Atenção: o episódio do Reflix contém spoilers do primeiro episódio de Lanternas. Dê o play, deixe sua opinião e conte para a gente: Lanternas começou com luz verde ou já merece uma advertência dos Guardiões?

This first episode sets the tone for what this season may be. We get a mix of mystery and lots of Green Lantern lore as we watch the dynamic of Hal Jordan and John Stewart. Stick around...This show has the makings of greatness
Jason Concepción and Rosie Knight recap the pilot episode of HBO's Lanterns. They break down John Stewart's abusive-if-you-squint origin story, Hal Jordan recruiting him as backup decades later, and the AI plot twist on the ring lore. From there it's a trip to Rushville, Nebraska, a mass shooting cold open, a suspiciously well-informed alien suspect, and dinner with a militia-adjacent ranching family that's clearly hiding something. They also dig into their competing theories about Green Lantern Corps corruption, debate whether the show has "HBO juice" or feels more like a CW-era DC property, and weigh in on Aaron Pierre's performance as John Stewart.

It's a sort of homecoming for episode 410 as the Good Brothers continue their celebration of the DCAU Lanterns with a look back at part one of the Justice League season one episode "In Blackest Night." In this re-review, the hosts give a deeper dive into the plot of one of their first reviews of Justice League in an episode that much like last week's review, finds John Stewart being framed for a crime he didn't commit! Although this time, John isn't proclaiming his innocence to the dismay of his fellow Leaguers. The hosts discuss a plot that feels like the writers were still trying to establish who the characters were at their core, animation and visuals that are relied upon heavily for several action sequences, a soundtrack that invokes some classic DCAU themes and the militaristic nature of our true episode villains and more! Plus a breakdown of the connection to The Zeta Project via the voice cast and a preview of next week's episode await you on this new episode of the DCAU Review!Please Consider Supporting the Podcast:Become a monthly or one time supporter of the pod at https://buymeacoffee.com/DCAUReviewSubscribe to the pod on Spotify or Apple Podcasts and please consider leaving us a 5-star reviewSubscribe to our new YouTube Channel Support the pod by picking up some merch at our shop https://dcaureview.myspreadshop.comFollow us: Twitter/X @DCAUReview Instagram @DCAUReview

Ready for every boardroom.Mamdani sat down with Jon Stewart and made democratic socialism sound like libraries and fire departments. We break down why that framing collapses the second you look at what DSA policy actually says versus how it gets marketed. We get into the rent freeze experiment that already ran in New York, the difference between a social safety net and seizing the means of production, the perverse incentive problem, and why the people this movement celebrates should set off alarm bells. Plus the aggressive-agreement trap: where the left is right about helping workers, and where the branding hides something very different.Tom reacts to a viral Fox News interview with a national co-chair of the DSA—a clip so extreme he initially assumed it had to be a setup. Joining Tom is Drew as the two go point by point through the DSA platform laid out on air: abolishing the Senate, replacing the presidency and Supreme Court, abolishing ICE, opening borders with amnesty, defunding the Pentagon, abolishing prisons, and bringing most large corporations under government ownership. Tom argues this is communism unmasked, and explains why America's founders deliberately built a republic with checks and balances to protect citizens—even from a president they hate—drawing a stark contrast with what happens under unchecked power in places like China and Iran. The conversation then digs into the deeper engine Tom sees behind radical leftism: an ideology rooted in resentment and an "overproduction of elites"—young people loaded with debt and taught that virtue means finding how you're oppressed. Drew pushes the economic angle hard, arguing that a generation locked out of the capitalism ladder, priced out of housing, and drowning in household debt has little reason to defend a system that isn't working for them. Together they wrestle with inflation, minimum wage, NIMBYism, and whether you can defuse the ideological bomb without first fixing the economy. A candid, combative breakdown of one of the most consequential political fault lines in America. Tom takes on Mayor Mamdani's plan to launch five city-owned grocery stores in New York—a $70 million, taxpayer-funded endeavor promising a core basket of goods at 30% below retail. Joining Tom is Drew, who pushes back and presses on the specifics as the two work through why running a grocery store is one of the hardest businesses on earth, operating on razor-thin 1 to 3% margins. Tom walks through the economics step by step: even zeroing out rent, taxes, and profit, a 30% discount on core goods leaves an unavoidable gap—one the taxpayer has to close. He explains how artificially low prices distort the market, put upward pressure on surrounding stores, and threaten to drive local bodegas out of business (who are already suing). Drawing on his own experience selling into Walmart with Quest, Tom lays out the "kingmaker" dynamic and the Vlasic Pickle cautionary tale to show how a state-backed buyer would inevitably bully distributors and suppliers down the chain until someone—often the lowest-paid worker or farmer—absorbs the loss. He points to real-world failures in Baldwin, Florida; Erie, Kansas; and a questionable case in Atlanta, and connects it all to the DSA's July program calling for food, energy, medicine, and transportation to be run "not for profit." The core question Tom leaves you with: what are the odds a government bureaucrat runs a grocery store better than Walmart? His answer is blunt—zero.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This episode of the Dan Caplis Show is a thought-provoking discussion about the one hundred and fifty most influential people in Colorado history. The Denver Post recently released a list of the top one hundred and fifty, but the speaker has some major issues with its political bias. He argues that the list is skewed towards certain individuals who don't necessarily deserve to be there, while others who have made significant contributions to the state are left out. The speaker highlights several examples of people who he believes should be on the list, including Bill Owens, a two-term governor with a long list of accomplishments, and Julia Greeley, a former slave who became known as the Angel of Denver for her charitable work. He also mentions Kendrick Castillo, a student who gave his life to save his classmates and teachers during a school shooting. On the other hand, he questions why Mason Tvert, a mouthpiece for the marijuana industry, made the list while these individuals did not. The speaker also touches on the topic of Anthony Fauci, discussing a recent revelation that he may have been involved in a scandal involving a lab in Wuhan, China. He shares a humorous take on the situation, referencing a joke from John Stewart about the lab's name being the same as the disease it was supposed to be studying. The speaker invites listeners to share their thoughts on who they think should be on the list of the one hundred and fifty most influential people in Colorado history. He also asks for their opinions on whether Anthony Fauci should face consequences for his actions, and whether the list's political bias is a problem. Tune in to this episode to hear the speaker's full discussion and share your thoughts on the one hundred and fifty most influential people in Colorado history.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New weather updates provide more chances for rain across the plains and Corn Belt, driving soybeans and corn markets lower. Wheat futures failed to hold their gains today, though the losses were limited by the continued issues with Black Sea grain exports. Cattle futures were higher today, giving some hope that the market may have seen the worst for now. Ross Baldwin with John Stewart & Associates recaps today's trade.
Like an idiot, I decided to work on my backyard firepit yesterday in the extreme heat. We got six of the nine circles done before calling it quits after about two hours. It was absolutely brutal…and I will never make that mistake again. Needless to say, I'm dragging ass today. Thankfully, we had a MAJOR concert announcement this morning, which helped perk me up a bit. In case you missed it, Godsmack & Dorothy are coming to the La Crosse Center on Friday, October 16th!!! Tickets go on-sale this Friday at 10am. In the news this morning, a recall on Bacon, the CEO of Cracker Barrel is stepping down after the company's disastrous attempt at rebranding, Bryan Kohberger is attempting to change his plea, Carly Simon announces that she's got Parkinson's disease In sports, the Brewers started their west coast road trip with a loss to the Giants last night, Eric Bieniemy's wife was shot by the couple's son, Jamal Adams is signing with the Vikings, Michael Lombardi is on paid administration leave from UNC, Conor McGregor is looking to fight Max Holloway again in 2027, and FIFA President Gianni Infantino has been accused of corruption. Talked about what's on TV & streaming today/tonight and let you know what's new on New Release Tuesday. Plus, as the 25th Anniversary of 9/11 gets nearer, John Stewart & Pete Davidson announce a new comedy special to raise money for 9/11 charities. Great story from New Jersey about a cop who helped deliver a baby in a parking lot, and a dog that's been missing for five years gets reunited with it's owner. Apparently, some people are eating more iceberg lettuce & trying to get the explosive diarrhea so they'll lose weight. Elsewhere in sports, Ryan Lasko is starting to get feeling in his legs, a squirrel gets on the field and the grounds crew has a hell of a time trying to corral it, and a soccer team wins a title after 75 years of trying! In a new round of "Who'd You Rather"...$50k in cash immediately, or a coin-flip for a shot at $1 million? Grant Bilse of the Wisco Sports Show joined me just after 8am to talk about Packers training camp. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a bunch of kids at a YMCA Summer camp that ate mushroom-laced edibles, a #FloridaMan who was depositing his co-workers' paychecks into his account, a woman in Iowa who got busted for DUI on a lawnmower, and a cop in Nashville who was banging another cop in a school.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

X-Men '97 is back... and somehow Season 2 might already be even better than the incredible first season! After one of the greatest superhero TV seasons ever made, Marvel Studios had enormous expectations to meet. Through the first four episodes of X-Men '97 Season 2, we think they're off to an outstanding start. In this episode of SuperHero Homies, we break down Episodes 1-4 of X-Men '97 Season 2, discussing the incredible action, shocking story developments, Apocalypse's rise, Cable's emotional journey, Magneto's biggest moments, and what we think is coming in the rest of the season. COLD OPEN (First 30 Minutes) Before discussing X-Men '97, we cover some of the biggest stories in superhero movies and pop culture: • Is The Flash really as bad as Madame Web? • Rumored characters appearing in the upcoming Superman sequel, Man of Tomorrow (Justice Gang, John Stewart, Blue Beetle, Peacemaker, and Martian Manhunter & more!) • The Batman Part II delayed once again until February 2028 • Could James Gunn leave DC Studios after Paramount's reported acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery? • Why Clayface could become the sleeper hit of the DC Universe • Can The Odyssey or Spider-Man: Brand New Day become the next billion-dollar blockbuster? FULL SPOILER DISCUSSION After the news, we jump into a full spoiler breakdown of X-Men '97 Season 2 Episodes 1-4. We discuss: • The X-Men being divided across the past and future • En Sabah Nur's transformation into Apocalypse • Apocalypse vs. Magneto • The shocking ending to their battle • Nathan Summers (Cable) and his relationship with Scott Summers and Jean Grey • Apocalypse's Horsemen • X-Factor and X-Force in 1997 • Favorite characters and standout performances • The incredible animation • Fast-paced storytelling • Comic book inspirations and Easter eggs • Our predictions for the rest of Season 2 Marvel Studios continues to prove why X-Men '97 has become one of the best superhero animated series ever made. The emotional storytelling, stunning animation, incredible action sequences, and faithful adaptation of classic X-Men comics have us completely hooked. From Apocalypse's terrifying rise to Magneto's unforgettable moments, Cable's emotional family story, and the introduction of X-Factor and X-Force, these first four episodes are packed with everything we love about the X-Men. If the rest of the season maintains this level of quality, X-Men '97 Season 2 could surpass an already phenomenal first season.
