Marvel vs Mount Etna
Episode 22, Nov 19, 2021, 08:00 AM
A Flight of SCOTT’S TOP 5 MARVEL FLAVORS
After two long miniseries, we’re taking a break from our regular programming to bring you a light, citrusy, sorbet-like palate cleanser: MARVEL VS MOUNT ETNA*! And we’re asking the tough questions this time, loyal listeners. What’s the difference between a good movie, a GOOD movie, and a kickass movie? Does the experimentation happening in the wineries of Sicily’s Mount Etna match the variety of flavors in pre-MCU Marvel movies? Will our hosts reveal which early-aughts superhero movie plays into the secret origin of their friendship, or will they just get flabbergasted by their own age and once again betray a profound ignorance about how time works? Only way to learn the truth is by pressing Play. Excelsior!
*Okay so it’s less of a “versus” situation and more of a “our regular movies-and-wine schtick” situation, but you get the idea.
