Daunted by complex continuity? Can’t tell a mutate from a warpie? We are here for you. We have trained for this responsibility for decades. We have the backissues, the calluses, and a really detailed map of the Summers family tree. We’ve been explaining the X-Men informally for years–to our friends and family, to the Internet, and, occasionally, to patient strangers on the street. Now, we’re making it official, with Jay and Miles X-Plain the X-Men: a weekly podcast dedicated to unpacking the weird, wonderful world of our favorite superhero soap opera for newcomers and die-hard fans alike.

HAWK TALK - Attack of the Franchise Cartoons
This would usually be a skip week, but the world is still being a jerk, so we made you a bonus, entirely unedited, and almost entirely off-topic episode. This time, we talked about the television shows we grew up on (and a few current ones)! Topics, roughly: Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood Masters of the Universe She-Ra The Real (vs. non-Real) Ghostbusters Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Little Shop of Horrors Beetlejuice Toxic Crusaders Attack of the Killer Tomatoes The Adventures of Pete & Pete (and the not-so-secret origin of this podcast) Les Schtroumpfs (and the time they maybe fought Satan) Batman: The Animated Series X-Men: The Animated Series X-Men: Evolution Wolverine & the X-Men The MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour The X-Files Star Trek: Voyager Earth 2 VR5 M.A.N.T.I.S. The Simpsons Daria Tuca & Bertie Gravity Falls Over the Garden Wall You can check out Waiting for October, our zine based on The Adventures of Pete & Pete, on Gumroad!
