Great Podcast

I was looking for something that discussed some items a little more in depth. I found behind-the-scenes insight, as well as different thoughts and ideas about the shows I was watching. The dynamic between the hosts is bar none. I enjoy the banter, the discussion, and the appreciation of pheedback from the phans. A most excellent podcast. Party on.

MCU might be struggling but MaP (Matt and Pete) are still Phantastic

Started listening to Matt and Pete as a pandemic project to learn more about the MCU. My entry points were Daredevil and Agents of Shield. I found catalogued Phantastic Geek podcasts to help me digest what I was watching and connect the dots on macro and micro levels. Now that Marvel content has hit some tough times, I suffer through shows like Secret Invasion JUST for the reward of a Phantastic Geek podcast! I’m often not as enthusiastic as they are about the viewing experience, but no problem - I still enjoy listening to the Phellas. Thanks for your insights, knowledge, and opinions Matt and Pete!
