With Lindsay out enjoying her honeymoon - CONGRATULATIONS!! - and Teegan navigating some mild health issues, we hope you enjoy this episode we recorded a while ago! In it, we talk about phase 5 of the MCU, why our excitement is nowhere near where it used to be, and some hopes along with criticisms of how storylines are handled. Also, Teegan draws comparisons between this discussion and the nostalgia baiting of remasters and remakes in the gaming world.

With 5 episodes down and 1 to go, Ms. Marvel has met a mixed reception ... one that we don’t believe is truly deserved. Beauties & Headcanons will be splitting up discussion of this series, with today’s discussion focusing on the diversity and representation present in the series and just why it’s so important. And, as an extra, we also talk about what the future Avengers may look like as well and the direction the MCU may take in the future. Just make sure you’ve caught up and have watched episodes 1-5 of Ms. Marvel if you don’t want spoilers, because we do discuss a few specifics that have happened thus far!

Apologies for the break, summer is officially here (and a bit hectic)! But we definitely had to sit down once Obi-Wan wrapped to discuss this series. Between the classic actors brought back to reprise their role, the newcomers who embrace their characters, and the writing and directing that hones in on all the little details, Obi-Wan seems to be a lovely gem of a series that keeps the spirit of the old while still exploring new things. Just be careful listening in, as we discuss very important plot points and happenings, so if you haven’t finished up the series yet, beware!

Now that Moon Knight has wrapped, it’s time to sit down and talk about it, of course! This time, Lindsay has some thoughts and questions to share, and we delve into the writing, the cast, and how Moon Knight succeeds in lawful evil villains and unreliable narrators where other projects have fallen a bit flatter. Just make sure you’ve watched every episode, because we’ll be talking about details that happen in the series and if you haven’t seen it yet, you’ll want to put this episode on pause!

Lego products and playsets have been a part of a lot of our collective childhoods in some way, and now that we’re older, it’s only grown with us! The Brickworld conventions in particular are a great way to interact with the Lego community as artists show off their works, building competitions are held, and products that are sometimes difficult to find are offered for sale. It’s a fun experience for the whole family, no matter your age, and absolutely worth a visit if you happen to be close to one of their events! We also take a moment to talk about The Lego Movie itself along with Lego iterations of other franchises, such as Justice League, Batman, Avengers, and Star Wars! (We are not sponsored, just to be clear, just passionate about art and our fellow nerds doing their thing!)
