Runaways is Brian K. Vaughn and Adrian Alphona's contribution to the Marvel universe, introducing a young cast that has preserved through 'The House of Idea's multi-verse crossovers and reboots.

    Hell in a Cell: Mankind vs. The Undertaker with Joey Clift

    Bah gawd, the podcast is coming down the ramp! Your host Chad Quandt is joined by writer/director/wrestling hat boy Joey Clift (Pow!, Spirit Rangers) to discuss one of the greatest matches in professional wrestling. It's Pittsburgh, 1996: a less established Mick Foley aka Mankind desires to give a worthy show against living nightmare The Undertaker. Mankind sacrifices his body for the fans, starting off with a 22-foot fall into the tables below. This is a story about perseverance and what an artist sacrifices for their audience.

    X-Men: E is for Extinction with Ben Joseph

    It's time to stop blasting sentinels and dive into the cosmic jazz of podcasting! Your host Chad Quandt is joined by writer Ben Joseph (Invincible Fight Girl, Dropout, Star Trek: Lower Decks) to cover a bold relaunch of the X-Men from 2001 by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely. New enemy Cassandra Nova invades the mansion, we learn about secondary mutations, and we meet old/new character Emma Frost. How did this comic influence Ben's own storytelling? What's his dream team of mutants? And is Xavier always walking around with a gun?

    Baywatch Nights: The Creature with Domi

    This podcast is a mutant-- a mermaid/frog/siren/cat that just wants to survive in a strange world. Also when threatened we will explode like we're filled with C4. Host Chad Quandt is joined by returning guest Domi (Paperback Paradise, Goosebuds co-founder!) to cover another episode of the 'cult classic' Baywatch Nights. In "The Creature" David Hasselhoff's Mitch is brought in to investigate a strange woman who escaped from a lab and is maybe a killer frog. Kinda like those Hunter monsters from Resident Evil? But hot? Well, hotter? While Mitch runs into places with an unregistered gun, Angie Harmon's Ryan looks at loose meat cells. Did this story stick to us? Join our Patreon for bonus episodes and more!

    The Buried Secret of M. Night Shyamalan with Kayla Cline

    Something sinister is hidden in the history of auteur M Night Shyamalan, and only one documentarian Nathaniel Khan can figure it out. Except... this documentary is a fraud scam? In 2004 M Night had fake documentary The Buried Secret of M. M. Night Shyamalan made for the Sci-Fi channel to promote his upcoming film The Village. It blew up spectacularly and few saw it. Except for our guest illustrator and game-maker Kayla Cline (All Elite Wrestling, Heckna, The Rite of Rumble) who watched this live on late night cable. Kayla and host Chad Quandt go scene-by-scene through this glorious disaster of a vanity project. We uncover the big, buried questions: Who are the psychic hackers on M.Night's website? Does M. Night have a magical domain in Philadelphia? And who is his friend Henry the Dead Victorian Boy? Join our Patreon for bonus episodes and more! Follow us @storiesthatstick on BlueSky!
