    The Odyssey is one helluva Car | Chapter 288

    Episode Summary Grab your Green Lantern ring, summon the Power Sword, and make sure the minivan has a full tank because Yung Phil and Jahmez are back for Chapter 288 of Distance NERDing! This week, Marvel rumors tease new Disney+ projects, Avengers: Doomsday, Rogue joining Secret Wars, and a massive 2028 MCU lineup. Over in the DCU, Guy Gardner's haircut becomes legitimate breaking news, Gorilla Grodd goes to court, and we dive into theories surrounding Lanterns. Then things get delightfully unhinged: Charles Melton could become Kakashi in Naruto, Kit Harington heads from Westeros to Hogwarts, Masters of the Universe finds a massive streaming audience, and Dave Bautista picks up Kratos' Leviathan Axe. We also celebrate the extraordinary legacy of Dolly Parton, ponder Matt Damon leading a movie that sounds suspiciously Power Rangers-adjacent, and discover that Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is apparently one helluva Honda. Yes, somehow this became a minivan podcast.   ⏱️ Timestamps & Topics 00:00 – Welcome to Distance NERDing 04:16 – Marvel's Disney+ future 07:44 – X-Men casting & Kitty Pryde possibilities 11:15 – Doomsday: Cap & Bucky vs. Doctor Doom 14:04 – Rogue rumored for Secret Wars 18:00 – Ghost Rider & Marvel's huge 2028 23:38 – Guy Gardner's new haircut 28:32 – The People vs. Gorilla Grodd 32:05 – Lanterns theories & SPOILERS 39:26 – Charles Melton as Kakashi in Naruto 44:03 – Kit Harington heads to Hogwarts 45:45 – Extraction 3 47:42 – Masters of the Universe dominates streaming 58:18 – Dave Bautista becomes Kratos 1:04:10 – Remembering Dolly Parton 1:10:52 – Matt Damon's Power Rangers-ish superhero movie 1:15:14 – The Odyssey is one helluva van 1:20:15 – Hayao Miyazaki is STILL creating   🧠 Key Takeaways Marvel may be quietly loading Disney+ and preparing a huge mutant future. Rogue appearing before the X-Men movie could help gradually introduce the MCU's new mutant generation. The DCU is getting wonderfully weird with an in-universe Gorilla Grodd true-crime documentary. Masters of the Universe may have found the audience on streaming that it missed theatrically. Dave Bautista's dramatic chops could make him a fascinating Kratos. Hayao Miyazaki continuing to create at 85 is pure artistic passion. Apparently being a dad automatically qualifies you for minivan ownership.   😂 Quotes & Best Bits "All I'm hearing is we have to fire some interns." "Order in the court… I'll take a banana." "How did he live out of the first? I don't know. Anyway, okay. He's Thor." "I mean, it's no Morbius, but that's fine." "Are you suggesting that I own a minivan?" "Because you're a dad. You're gonna have dad cars."   🤓 Keep NERDing Together! Enjoyed the episode?

    To me my casting rumors | Chapter 286

    Episode Summary To us, our casting rumors! 🧬 This week, Yung Phil and Jahmez dive headfirst into Marvel's rapidly mutating X-Men reboot casting rumors, including Daphne Keen potentially returning as X-23, Samara Weaving as Emma Frost, Kit Connor as Cyclops, Professor X possibilities, and Marvel seemingly assembling a younger generation of mutants ahead of D23. But the rumor machine doesn't stop there. We talk Ryan Gosling's Ghost Rider, Rosamund Pike, Sacha Baron Cohen's Mephisto, Hercules potentially stealing Thor's thunder, Marvel's shrinking Disney+ strategy, Zack Snyder possibly entering the MCU, the future of Sony's Spider-Man universe, Booster Gold surviving another day, and the mysterious message hidden in Doctor Doom's SDCC jacket. Then One Shots unloads Michael Jackson sequel news, Jim Carrey's live-action Jetsons, God of War recasting, Squid Game, Spaceship Earth, and the possible return of Gargoyles before we roll a natural 20 into Star Wars. Dave Bautista may be headed to the galaxy far, far away, Hayden Christensen could bring more Clone Wars-era Anakin to Ahsoka Season 2, and Dave Filoni's rumored Heir to the Empire project might become a Disney+ limited series. Somewhere along the way we discover Latveria is apparently a cereal box, debate whether using the Force still counts as a natural 20, and learn that having cable in 2026 apparently comes with an immediate doctor's appointment. Peak journalism. ⏱️ Timestamps & Topics 00:00 – Welcome to Distance NERDing 04:24 – Ghost Rider: Rosamund Pike & Mephisto rumors 08:46 – Hercules replacing Thor as Marvel's leading god? 12:07 – Daredevil & the future of Marvel on Disney+ 16:10 – 🧬 X-Men reboot casting rumor MEGA breakdown 22:54 – Champions & Strange Academy becoming movies? 24:41 – Zack Snyder directing an MCU movie? 30:00 – Spider-Man, Sony & the multiverse 39:02 – Doctor Doom's secret SDCC message 41:45 – Booster Gold lives! Who should play him? 46:06 – Michael Jackson sequel 49:40 – Jim Carrey joins live-action Jetsons 53:43 – God of War recasting 56:18 – Squid Game America reportedly killed 59:27 – Disney's Spaceship Earth series 1:02:01 – Gargoyles could finally return 1:05:21 – Star Wars x Dungeons & Dragons 1:07:38 – Dave Bautista joining Star Wars? 1:10:25 – Anakin, Ahsoka & Obi-Wan together? 1:13:59 – Heir to the Empire becoming a Disney+ series? 🧠 Key Takeaways Marvel appears to be building a younger X-Men roster, with D23 potentially becoming the big reveal. Yung Phil and Jahmez agree that Marvel risks losing something valuable if it abandons long-form Disney+ storytelling. Zack Snyder in the MCU could work, but only with a project suited to his gigantic, highly stylized filmmaking. Sony's brightest Spider-Man success remains Spider-Verse. In other words: LET LORD & MILLER COOK. Dn ep286 (1).txtTXT Booster Gold isn't dead, so the fan-casting machine may continue operating at unsafe temperatures. A Star Wars/D&D crossover raises the important theological question: Does using the Force invalidate a Nat 20? Dn ep286 (2).txtTXT Heir to the Empire may work better as a series where years of interconnected storytelling can actually breathe. 😂 Quotes & Best Bits "Our cereal box was Latveria." "I don't give two Fuchs if I'm wrong." "If you use the Force to get yourself a Nat 20... is that still a Nat 20?" "They're not the problem. You're the problem." "Let Lord and Miller cook." 📣 Keep NERDing Together! Subscribe, leave us a review, and share the episode with your fellow nerds using #DistanceNERDing.

    Nerd Out at Night | Chapter 285

    The nerd news cycle chose violence this week! Yung Phil, Jahmez, and Graveyard dive into Marvel's changing plans, the future of Blade, Ghost Rider and the supernatural MCU, the developing X-Men roster, Spider-Man: Brand New Day's monster box office, DC's Booster Gold shake-up, Lanterns, dueling Nightmare on Elm Street projects, God of War, Avatar, Disney's live-action obsession, and the future of Star Wars. Along the way, we discover that Freddy Krueger may be responsible for Jahmez's snoring, Graveyard pitches a horrifying Mad Hatter movie, Avatar pronunciation becomes a battlefield, and the crew wonders whether Freddy simply needs to "get his groove back." Produced with precision. Powered by chaos. Approved by the Council. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to Chapter 285 04:08 – Wonder Man & Marvel/Disney+ shake-ups 07:46 – Mahershala Ali exits Blade 10:02 – Ryan Gosling, Ghost Rider & Midnight Sons 15:32 – Professor X, Magneto & the Skarsgård brothers 18:33 – Emma Frost, Cyclops & Marvel's X-Men plans 25:19 – Spider-Man: Brand New Day explodes at the box office 32:25 – DC: Watching the Watchtower 32:47 – What happened to Booster Gold? 39:30 – Lanterns & the mystery of Earth's Green Lanterns 45:10 – Two Nightmare on Elm Street projects?! 51:53 – Alicia Silverstone returns to Clueless 53:51 – Amazon's animated Mad Hatter movie 58:09 – Dave Bautista and God of War 1:02:51 – Avatar expands again 1:07:15 – Disney's live-action Tangled debate 1:12:48 – Macaulay Culkin & another Home Alone? 1:16:53 – Star Wars heads beyond the Skywalker Saga 1:25:00 – Final thoughts & what we're nerding out on 🤓 Key Takeaways • Marvel's shifting TV strategy sparks a bigger debate about whether streaming or theatrical releases are the better home for superhero stories. • The crew sees huge potential in Marvel's supernatural corner with Ghost Rider, Blade, Midnight Sons, Moon Knight and Wolverine. • Building the X-Men slowly could make future stories like Dark Phoenix far more emotionally meaningful. • Spider-Man: Brand New Day shows audiences still have a massive appetite for superhero movies when the story delivers. • Announcing projects too early may be making DC's evolving slate look more chaotic than it actually is. • Horror reboots need more than nostalgia. Freddy Krueger needs to feel dangerous again. • Familiar IP works best when creators expand or reinterpret it instead of simply photocopying the original. • Star Wars has an enormous universe available once it finally leaves the Skywalker neighborhood. 😂 Best Bits "Produced with precision, powered by chaos, approved by the council." "Distance makes the ring grow fonder." "That's why I snore. It's because of Freddy Krueger." "Freddy needs to get his groove back." "I only support one Avatar, and that's by M. Night Shyamalama Ding Dong." "So what you're saying is I can make a Mad Hatter movie?" 🚀 Join the Nerd Herd Enjoyed the episode?

    John Cena fights Nukes at SDCC?! | Chapter 284

    San Diego Comic-Con 2026 absolutely exploded with announcements, surprise reveals, and enough trailers to overload even the most powerful geek brain... so naturally, Yung Phil and Jahmez had to unpack ALL of it. This week we're breaking down the biggest SDCC reveals including Marvel, DC, Avatar, Blade Runner, Spaceballs, Lord of the Rings, Wolverine, Lanterns, Vision Quest, Matchbox, Atari movies, and much more! Along the way we ask life's most important questions: Why does John Cena keep ending up near nuclear weapons? Who honestly asked for a Pong movie? Has Charles Dickens been trapped in an endless reboot cycle? And can Mel Brooks still out-parody Hollywood? (Spoiler: absolutely.)

John Cena is once again trying to stop a nuclear disaster. 💬 Favorite Quotes "How many times does Ebenezer need to go back in time?" "I'm gonna need that Pong movie." "John Cena fights nukes... what does that have to do with Matchbox?" "Spaceballs understands modern Hollywood better than modern Hollywood." "More cabbages!" 🚀 Join the Conversation!

    Even Gods need health insurance | Chapter 283

    Episode Summary This week on Distance NERDing, Yung Phil and Jahmez dive headfirst into another packed week of geek culture with hot takes, wild speculation, and just enough chaos to make J. Jonah Jameson proud. The guys debate whether the MCU should ever reboot Tony Stark, break down the avalanche of Avengers: Doomsday news, speculate on Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and wonder if Adam Driver belongs in Marvel... or Weapon X. Elsewhere, they're cautiously optimistic about Naruto's live-action future, celebrate (and immediately rage about) Avatar: The Last Airbender's theatrical plans, mourn Ryan Hurst's unfortunate exit from God of War, and discuss everything from Far Cry and Call of Duty to Lord of the Rings, G.I. Joe, and beyond. Along the way, the night's biggest laughs include Yung Phil's growing obsession with Dungeon Crawler Carl, Paramount somehow finding a way to disappoint Avatar fans anyway, and the realization that apparently... even gods need health insurance.   ⏱️ Timestamps & Topics 00:00 - Welcome back! Dungeon Crawler Carl hype, new merch, and what's coming this week 05:00 - Armor Wars rumors and whether Tony Stark should ever return 08:00 - Ryan Reynolds teases the future of Deadpool 11:00 - Adam Driver rumored for the MCU 14:00 - Spider-Man: Brand New Day theories and Venom speculation 20:00 - Avengers: Endgame Encore & Doomsday connections 24:00 - Russo Brothers explain handling Doomsday's massive cast 26:00 - Avengers: Doomsday poster breakdown 30:00 - DC's Batman universe continues raising questions 39:00 - Superman, DC Studios & future projects 47:00 - Modern Warfare TV series and Taylor Sheridan 01:01:00 - Live-action Naruto ages up Team 7 01:06:00 - Avatar: The Last Airbender movie drama 01:10:00 - Lord of the Rings: Hunt for Gollum begins production 01:13:00 - God of War loses its Kratos 01:17:00 - Steve Buscemi joins Far Cry 01:22:00 - G.I. Joe movie updates 01:30:00 - Final headlines, wrap-up, and more nerdy tangents   🔥 Key Takeaways Marvel may finally be laying the groundwork for the next era of the MCU. Spider-Man: Brand New Day could become one of the franchise's biggest setup films. The Russo Brothers appear confident handling Doomsday's enormous ensemble. Live-action anime adaptations continue evolving by aging characters appropriately. Paramount somehow managed to make Avatar fans both happy... and immediately frustrated. Ryan Hurst's injury is an unfortunate setback for Amazon's God of War series. Far Cry's anthology approach could become one of gaming's strongest TV adaptations. Never underestimate Yung Phil's ability to get emotionally invested in fictional release schedules.   💬 Favorite Quotes "Even gods need health insurance." "You fucking dick bags, Paramount." "That's your secret? You're always angry about something." "We should just become a Dungeon Crawler Carl podcast." "Your cabbages are in Burbank."   🎙️ Call to Action If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to subscribe, leave us a 5-star review, and share the show with your fellow nerds using #DistanceNERDing.

We also dive into the return of Doctor Who, Ghostbusters, Firefly, Fallout, G.I. Joe, and more.
