Snark Squad Pod #062 – Marvel Cinematic Universe, phase 3 (part 2)

Previously: We had mixed feelings about The Umbrella Academy

Sweeney: WE DID IT! WE ARE OFFICIALLY CURRENT WITH THE MCU!

 

It’s been a long journey but I’m not gonna wax philosophical about it for too long because we built the schedule this way so that we could do the big wrap-up stuff in our Avengers: Endgame episode next month. For now, though, we’re just gonna do a little victory lap for making our way through all this content.

Joining us in that victory lap as we discuss Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War, Ant Man & The Wasp, and Captain Marvel are our stalwart podcast avengers, Nick Jenkins and Rich Camillucci.

Nick is senior producer for Crash Course and the host of Reel Bad, a podcast about bad movies and why they want to hurt us. Rich is the president of Arcade Audio and hosts two podcasts of his own – Podswoggle & The Blank Slate. You can keep up with his many projects over on Twitter.

(If you want to follow this journey with us from the beginning, check out our episodes on Phase 1, Phase 2, and the first half of Phase 3!)

 

This is the video Nick mentioned in which Ryan Coogler breaks down a scene in Black Panther:

Nicole is the co-captain of Snark Squad and these days she spends most of her time editing podcasts. She spends too much time on Twitter and very occasionally vlogs and blogs. In her day job she's a producer, editor, director, and sometimes host of educational YouTube channels. She loves travel, maps, panda gifs, and semicolons. Writing biographies stresses her out; she crowd sourced this one years ago and has been using a version of it ever since. She would like to thank Twitter for their help.
