Past, Present and Puny? Historian and Author, Jarred Knott, talks to Simon about how the past is effecting the present. And later, Simon and Mrs C talk fun, funny and puny headlines as they head into the weekend.

In this episode of Puny Pod, Ryan and David take on one of the MCU's most ambitious—and divisive—films: Eternals. From ancient Mesopotamia to modern-day Marvel, the conversation dives deep into cosmic lore, Jack Kirby's massive ideas, and what happens when Marvel trades quips for existential dread. The hosts break down the film's sprawling ensemble cast, Chloé Zhao's distinct directorial style, and the complicated mythology of Eternals, Deviants, and Celestials. Along the way, they explore why this movie looks incredible, why it confused so many viewers on first watch, and how its themes of free will, duty, and humanity set it apart from traditional MCU entries. Expect thoughtful analysis, comic-book history, first-watch vs. rewatch perspectives, and plenty of Puny Pod banter as Ryan and David wrestle with a movie that asks big questions—and isn't afraid to slow things down to do it. Love it or hate it, Eternals is a swing for the fences, and this episode gives it the full deep-dive treatment. Themes by J.R. Trimpe: https://trimpe.org/ ---------------- Support the show!

It's another wild ride on Puny Pod's Monthly Bugle! Ryan and David rise from the grave to review Marvel Zombies—the four-episode animated spinoff from What If…? that turns the MCU undead. They dig into the show's tension, stellar voice cast, emotional gut-punches, and how it balances horror with heart. From there, the crew shifts to what's next: Avengers: Doomsday hype (with that elusive trailer debuting ahead of Avatar: Fire and Ash), rumors around Black Panther: Shadows of Wakanda, and confirmation that Werewolf by Night 2 is officially on the way. They also revisit Fantastic Four: First Steps—now streaming on Disney+—and share thoughts on Michael Giacchino's fantastic score, missing deleted scenes, and what might have changed behind the scenes. Plus, a fun detour into the Marvel multiverse… of cruising! Ryan gives a full breakdown of Disney Cruise Line's brand-new Disney Destiny, packed with Marvel theming—from the Sanctum Bar to the Iron Man Tower Suite. Whether you're here for zombies, heroes, or high seas luxury, this Bugle has it all! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Puny Podians Assemble! Ryan and David are back in the Super Secret Spoiler Show vault, this time diving into Iron Man 3—the movie that kicked off Phase 2 and split fans faster than Tony's suits falling apart mid-flight. They're breaking down Shane Black's snarky, Christmas-set spin on the Iron Avenger: the Mandarin twist, PTSD Tony, an army of exploding Extremis soldiers, and a whole lot of suits. From Iron Man 3's divisive legacy to its surprising emotional depth, this episode covers what worked, what whiffed, and why it still sparks debate across MCU fandom. Plus, the usual SSSS chaos—Skrull of the Movie, product placement awards (looking at you, Audi), facial hair rankings, and the eternal question: which role would Nicolas Cage absolutely overact to perfection? Whether you think Iron Man 3 is underrated brilliance or Tony's weakest link, this spoiler-filled deep dive is loaded with armor, attitude, and absurdity. Hit play and let's power up!

In this episode of Puny Pod, Ryan and David return to Phase Four with Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings! From Wenwu's centuries-spanning backstory to Shang-Chi's comic origins and the film's ties to Chinese mythology, the hosts unpack one of Marvel's most distinct and heartfelt stories. They dig into the film's incredible martial arts choreography, its pandemic-era theatrical release, and how Shang-Chi changed the MCU's trajectory. Along the way, they discuss Simu Liu's rise from stock-photo model to Marvel star, the legacy of Fu Manchu in the comics, and the cultural importance of seeing authentic AAPI representation on screen. Expect laughs, Marvel deep dives, karaoke appreciation, and a few well-placed digs at Trevor Slattery. It's equal parts history lesson and fan celebration—because Shang-Chi deserves its flowers.

This week we're joined in studio by an old school quail hunter who hunted through and vividly remembers the good ole days of bobwhites.

Who wouldn't have wanted love to grow up where you whistle for the dogs, take off walking in any direction and be bird hunting. It's a rare glimpse into how it once was. Also, you know that Bonnie Big Boy tomato you love from the garden, guess whose grandmother was Bonnie? You guessed it. You'll enjoy this one. Listen.
