Dad Podz Presentz the Unofficial M.C.U. Podcast: Recent Episodes
Dad Podz
We recorded this last fall, took some time off from podding and uploading it now. Have fun!
For the first time ever, Dad Podz was recorded live in front of a studio audience. Well, not an audience, and not in strudio. Technically it was a hotel room, with no A/C and it was hot. But we were face to face. We got Marvel trivia. And the majority of our time we cover the MCU phase 4 and talk about the best characters in the MCU since the end of Endgame and it's fall out. New characters only. Listen and give us all the love you got!
Michael and Shane talk about some of the highs and lows so far with MCU’s phase 4. We also debut our marvel trivia segment where the guys test each other’s knowledge of comics, movies, tv and other marvel media.
Michael and Shane cover the Dr. Strange sequel. Multiverse! Madness! The Scarlet Witch! Professor X! We cover all the Sam Raimi ticks, head explosions, bisections and third eyes. Fun conversation!
This episode, the Dads discuss the Disney + series, Falcon and The Winder Soldier. We go over the hits, misses, bromances, heroes and villains, and the what could have beens. Listen! Follow! Rate! Do all that across all podcast formats. Then send us cash.
So, The Eternals is not strictly speaking good. But it's NOT TERRIBLE! Also, as you may have noted we don't record and post in the same week. So you may notice some dated Chris Rock/Will Smith takes.
We finish our ranking and end our discussion of Avengers: Endgame. Join us! Listen! Subscribe, rate and review!
In part 1 of this epic two part episode, the guys break down OUR NUMBER 1 MCU movie of all time, Avengers: Endgame. Join us, tell a friend, share it on your social media, create a flyer with those little tear off tabs, maybe a haiku...
This week we cover The Black Panther, the best standalone MCU entry. We go deep into this great super hero origin story.
This week the guys cover the top 3 MCU movie, Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Great action. Spies. Really a flawless movie. Listen!
It’s been a minute, but we are still creating. This week we cover the third installment of the Captain America franchise, Civil War. So many heroes! New faces! Tony Stark still a douche! Episode 75! Listen!
We finally get to it! The event of 2021 in early 2022. Spider-Man NWH! We cover it all! Multiple spoilers in this one, so if you have not seen it, listen to us and get the whole movie spoiled! It is a blast!
We are into the top 5 now, with the funniest entry in the MCU, Thor Ragnarok. We got beefcake, we got Hulk butt, and we got Cate Blanchett (who is not Tilda Swinton) and Jeff Goldblum fight over who is the best villain. And we cover this movie because that is what podcasters do. Listen!
If you tuned in this week to get the topical recap and breakdown of Spider-Man No Way Home, well here is a Spider-Man movie from a few years back for you. It’s good! And so is this episode!
The Dad Podz guys cover the 2021 entry into the MCU, Shang Chi. We cover all the homages from Jackie Chan to Crouching Tiger. Star turn for Simu Liu. Does this entry with it's back story make the end before it began of Iron Fist in the MCU? Hotel California! Big retcon of Iron Man back story in the MCU. Join us!
I am Iron Man!
Journey back to the start of the #MCU with #Marvel's own Tony Stark! Mike and Shane do a deep dive into all the hot takes you've come to expect from DadPodz. Starring @RobertDowneyJr in the comeback role of all comeback roles.
This nice episode covers Avengers: Infinity War. Is this too low in our rankings? Who is the best character from this film? Captain America better with beard? Join us for a rollicking conversation about the 3rd Avengers and the set up for Endgame.
The movie that upped the stakes for the MCU. Best Avenger? Where is Rhodey? Best Scenes! Is this a good plan by Thanos? Do our heroes fight one another? Memes! Dad Humor! Dadservations!
We cover the first installment of our intergalactic team of A-Holes. Join us for a fun recap and analysis of Marvels first super hero team that includes a talking rodent and anthropomorphic tree. Chris Pratt! Zoe Saldana! James Gunn! Dave Bautista! Bradley Cooper! Lee Pace! We talk a whole lot of Lee Pace. More than we anticipated.
Listen!
This week we have undoubtedly the greatest Marvel character ever created, getting his sequel in the MCU. SPIDER-MAN! Europe! Mysterio! Handsome Jake Gyllenthal. Space! Skrulls! More reasons Tony Stark is a bad guy.
Dad Podz covers Ant-Man and the Wasp this week. Funny! Small Stuff! Big Stuff! Luis story! Michael F-in Pena! Michelle Pfeiffer is in the MCU! Paul Rudd!
We are getting gooooood now. We cover Captain Marvel! MCU's first female standalone hero. We go deep into the mythos of Captain Mar-Vel and 1990s grunge music. Listen, Rate, Review, Follow.
This podcast is presented in partnership with Rewatchable Media, home to several great podcasts and youtube channels covering their love of TV Shows, Movies, and Culture. Find out more on rewatchable.media.
The Dad Podz crew drops acid and watches Dr. Strange. Actually, we didn't need the drugs, this film is trippy enough on its own. We cover the great CGI, good performances and a really bad instance of white washing. Still a great film though and the MCU now has a wizard!
Have you ever wondered what it is like to have two grown men gush over another grown man, NOT in a sports context? Well look no further. Today Michael and Shane go deep into Captain America: The First Avenger. They talk about their love of the MCU character, marvel at the cast--one of the best for a comic book movie, and set up Cap for his epic decade long run as the heart of the MCU.
The movie that needed to come out last year, but did not because of the pandemic and also should have come out 5 years ago but did not because of implicit sexism. Black Widow! We cover all the ups and downs, the best moments, the breakout stars and those pesky Russian accents.
We are really getting good now. Dadpodz presents our recap of #GOTG2. We cover the action, the jokes, and the violence that somehow still resulted in a PG-13 rating. Join us for a fun recap of the MCU sequel. Follow, rate, review. Contact us for your comments. We would love to hear from you.
Our unofficial MCU rankings continue with our rewatch and discussion of Ant-Man. We break down the action, performances and some of the drama around the making of this entry into the MCU. Did both Pym and Cross just miss out on a billion dollar business model for shrinking inorganic material that would have revolutionized the shipping industry? That is the kind of discussion you come to Dadpodz for! #MCU #Ant-man #Disney #MarvelStudios
There is a lot going on in this episode and this movie. Much of it good. Some of it not so good. This is the last of the really flawed MCU entries. We cover all the good and bad. Robots! Mutants! Infinity Stones! Listen, follow, rate, love us!
We get into the nitty gritty on the first Marvel Phase 2 project, Iron Man 3. We cover the plot, the plot holes, the unforgettable moments and everything else from Robert Downey Jr.'s last solo Iron Man film. Why is this movie largely meh? Listen here to find out. @RobertDowneyJr @MarvelStudios @Iron_Man
If you are a fan of the MCU, we got you covered. We have NEWS... and NOTES! We talk about upcoming projects, new releases and casting announcements, plus rumors galore! Then we start our ranking starting from the bottom. We love the MCU but really can't defend the bottom four here. BUT, listen to us and you don't have to watch these! #MCU #THOR #HULK #IRONMAN
We would be finishing up our Pre-capping project for the D+ show Loki, but alas, Disney stopped returning our calls and refused to delay the show while DadPodz went on vacation. Do you know how long it has been since we had a vacation? We got to get behind the wheel and hit the open road. It was such a joyous experience we did not even need to threaten children with the 'I will turn this car around' or 'Don't make me come back there.' But we did sprinkle a few gems from the driver's seat like 'Wake me up when we get there,' or when passing cemetery 'People are just dying to get into that place.' But we digress. This episode is a recap of the entire Loki show. It's great! @LokiOfficial @michaelwaldron @iamkateherron @disneyplus
In this episode we interview @jerryjamesstone about food, food security, avocado storage, comic books and social media strategies. We go over what we got better at in the pandemic lockdown (not much), why food bloggers write 4 pages of anecdotes before the recipe ingredients, the importance of simple and fast recipes, and Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Jerry is awesome, you should listen to this episode.
We continue precapping Loki. What happened in episode 3? Go to another podcast. We cover what is going to happen in episode 4. @LokiOfficial

@disneyplus
Happy Father's Day! On this most holy of holidays, we continue our precapping gimmick. Is it working? Maybe! We take some tangents on the reopening of youth sports, swim meets and softball tournaments and eventually get to some pieces of genre that we DON'T like. In there we also hit Loki episode 3. Which is good, since that is what we set out to do. Like, listen, follow, subscribe, rate, review, send us cash.
Did the first episode work? Who knows? Do we catch you up on what you missed? Not really. Did we spoil stuff? Indeed. Do we decide to do it again? You betcha! Join us to listen to our mostly coherent ramblings about what we think will happen in episode two debuting on @disneyplus this coming Wednesday. @michaelwaldron @iamkateherron @lokiofficial
We don't even know the name of it! From the podcast that brought you a WandaVision recap show, 2 months too late, we bring you something else you didn't ask for! We are PREcapping every episode of Loki, the new show coming to Disney+ this week. You will get very little recap, but if you want weird predictions, wild speculation and approximately 150 Mephisto jokes per episdoe, you have come to the right place. @michaelwaldron @iamkateherron @burlaprobot @shanetyoung @lokiofficial @disneyplus
In this episode we talk to Alex from @6seasonspodcast. We briefly talk about the show, the awesome people he has gotten the chance to interview in and around the TV Show Community. But then we really go DEEP into youth sports, under 10 soccer, coaching your own kids, and the challenges and wonders of that world. Alex was awesome. Listen to us and listen to his podcast, because it is way better than ours!
This episode, Michael and Shane interview Matt from @communiess, a super fan account for the show Community. We cover how good he is at tweeting, why he superfans for Community, why Shane should actually watch the show (he started!), and parenting during the pandemic. This one is a good one. Special thanks to Matt for bringing it strong! The Community DadPodz crossover that you all have been clamoring for.
We conclude the great Disney+ Series with the season...series? finale. Thanks to everyone who listened and thanks to all the great creators for the show. #jacshaeffer #mcu #MCUPhase4 #WandaVision #wandamaximoff #vision #kevinfeige

This week on Dad Pods we 'celebrate' a year in pandemic while we look on the bright side. What has made this year bearable? Are we drinking too much? Should we cut down on the carbs? Wait, there is one of those things in our neighborhood? Listen, subscribe, rate, review.
This movie is so insane, we just recap it, analysis is mostly unnecessary. But we do ask how many times should Tom Cruise's Ethan Hunt been killed. Why are bombs in movies so hard to diffuse? Is it necessary to 'tie' the explosions of two nuclear weapons together when they are less than a mile apart? Enjoy, Rate, Subscribe, Review. Do it all again.
Dadwatch presented by Dad Podz does the impossible. We recap Mission Impossible: Fall-Out. The most recent films in the 20+ year old franchise that in the 90s was based on a 20 year old TV show. That's nearly 50 years of popular culture. We break down scene by scene, discuss all the insanity of this soon-to-be-classic-but-too-recent-to-be-a-classic action film. This was fun. Rate, Subscribe, Review.
In this episode we continue our DADWATCH series. We breakdown and review Batman: HUSH now streaming on a streaming service that is NOT currently a sponsor, so if you want our plug you are going to have to pay AT&T! This is an animated entry into the DCAU, which thus far has been roughly 1000 times better than the live action DCU. This one doesn't disappoint as it introduces a new Batman Villain, HUSH. We cover the origin in the comics and how it compares to this version. As Batman tries to silence HUSH, we wonder why certain changes were made. We also note that this animated film has gone full PG-13, the occasional curse word and blood splatter abound. Also, is this bigger medical miracle than Batman in The Dark Knight Rises? This was brain surgery and concussions, that was back broken without surgical intervention. Also, where would we be without a mind controlled Superman? Rate, Subscribe, Review.
DADWATCH. In our first episode of DADWATCH we re-watch Batman Begins, mostly because it was on HBOMAX and available. But it's good. It holds up! We ask the dad questions that everyone should: What is the legacy of this movie? What is the best father relationship? What is the worst? Batman clearly has a no killing policy, but goodness gracious the concussions! I know it's not a question, but maybe Arkham is filled with convicts with traumatic brain injury.
Listen, subscribe, rate, review.
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Why would anyone want to relive 2020? Well we give you a few good things that happened. Mostly this is a Ted Lasso lovefest. We have got tons of Disney+, a smattering of Hulu, some HBOMax and a smidgeon of Netflix. Stay for Books, Movies, TV and Games. Rate, Review, Subscribe, do it all again. Make it seem like we have more subscribers than we do.
Listen to us pick the best candidates from the rest of the US. Admittedly, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Vermont are super boring. But we liven it up. We got T-sizzle, we got Big Willy Style and an over exuberant Michael excited about Brad Pitt (not just his abs, but where he's from). Rate, subscribe, review, and then do it all over again!
Happy New Year (we recorded this episode three weeks ago)! In this very special episode of dad podz, we get a COV19 scare. We discuss the pandemic at large in the face of rising numbers.
Kentucky through New Mexico. We've got the Boss. We've got Britney Bitch! We have an iconic director duo and several America's Sweethearts. Learn why our 'candidates' must run for office.
In this episode, Michael and Shane tackle all fifty states in this epic search to find the best celebrity candidate for governor for each state. This is part 1 of 3. This episode goes from Alabama to Kansas. Why did we do this? We sort of explain! The rules: candidate must not be a pro politician, candidate must have a strong connection to the state, candidate must not be a total piece of s**t. Apparently our picking of candidates is legally binding so The Rock will soon be governor of ______! Listen for the news before it is broken by Adrian Wojnarowski (we don't really know the political reporter equivalent).
Our drive down memory lane (for now) ends in 1993. We have classic Hanks/Ryan team up. We get introduced to the full Mcconaughey. Classic Bill Murray, John Candy (RIP), a Halloween (non horror) favorite, movies that started dynamite careers and maybe a few that ended them. Join us for 1993. Rate, subscribe, , review, recommend, reignite, refer, re0insert verb here.
- We ignore the current election year with a trip down memory lane for a simpler, happier time. We go through a semi-acceptable black face, a Tom Cruise cameo for the ages, a top level Will Farrell performance, an adult break out year for Kristen Bell and Mila Kunis going from TV to Movies, two stoner classics, and a few solid if unspectacular rom coms. Come for a rant about movie titles based on song lyrics that have nothing to do with the movie (It's just Lazy!) and stay for more words spoken about the oenophile classic Bottle Shock since it's release 12 years ago. Rate, Review, subscribe. Do all those things as often as your device will allow.
Michael and Shane take you back to the past and 1994. We get some Gen X classics from Kevin Smith and Ben Stiller. We get the peak of Jim Carrey and Mount Rushmore Tom Hanks movie. There is the ubiquitous Coen Bros underrated gem and our contracted Nic Cage movie--this one he's not a weirdo! All that and a classic cable movie that we may end up covering in a 7 part docu-pod. Rate, Review, Subscribe. Have fun and stay safe.
- Not a tribute to Eddie Van Halen and the seminal album 1984, but should have been. We Jump into the comedies released in 1984. We journey down past Panama for a great Douglas/Turner RomCom. We cover the Hot for Teacher classic Revenge of the Nerds. It's no House of Pain for the Muppets in a field trip to New York. We see Sigourney Weaver as a Girl Gone Bad in a Bill Murray Classic. And you will play I'll Wait for our favorite comedies of 1984.
2007: The height of Apatowism. We cover 5-6 movies that today would be Amazon Prime shows. We've got gross out teen movies like Superbad and smart indie comedies like Juno or Waitress. We've got a Simpsons cash grab a Will Ferrell cash grab and some high quality mumblecore. Come for Shane's irrational Phillip Seymore Hoffman love and stay for Dad Bod of the week. Rate, Subscribe, Review, send cash payments.
So, do we follow our convention and take another year of comedy films, or is this what everyone has been wanting, a deep dive into the classic Taylor Swift record about break ups and celebrity? You will have to listen to find out. Join us for great fun that starts in a McDonalds parking lot and a major Dadmission (when a dad admits a mistake). For purely convention this is the first episode of season 2. Sure to be better than season 1. Rate, review, subscribe.
The pandemic rages on. The west coast of the country is on fire. Our police force continues to perform extrajudicial punishment on members of our society. So we do the natural thing: We discuss comedy movie releases from 1995. Clueless! Mallrats! Tommy Boy! Father of the Bride 2! Join us as we stroll down memory lane back to a year that launched Windows 95, the glitchiest of the Windows operating systems. Listen! Rate! Review! Try to falsify our numbers to make advertisers fight over our sponsorship! Whatever. We will see you next week. Thanks for listening.
- The penultimate episode of Season 1. Why are we arbitrarily starting a new season after episode 20? Seems the right thing to do. No Michael Dukakis talk this week. But we do hit the Naked Gun, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the beginning of Tom Hanks Super Duper Star, a little baseball movie and an all-time Eddie Murphy movie. Come to learn about comedy history, stay for the inevitable digressions. Rate, Subscribe, Review, Send us Cash! Actually sending cash in the time of COVID-19 seems like assault. Venmo us. Or cash app. Or Paypal. We are equal opportunity grifters.
Tonight, we party like it's 1999! [Boo! Hiss!] I know, but these descriptions don't just write themselves. It's not that we are lazy, it's that we just don't care. But seriously, we hit 1999 and cover the best and some of the worst. We have some notable sequels, a couple of classics, one of the weirdest movies you will ever see, and we cover the teen-age-ification of some of literature's classics, which was a staple of 1999. Listen! Send us cash!
- We go back to 1985. Prime Chevy Chase. Paul Reubens, AKA Pee Wee Herman. John Hughes gets detention. The great Michael J Fox fools around with his mom. And Richard Donner makes a classic kid caper. We list 'em. We rank 'em. We tell you who in 1985 had the best dad bod. Listen! Rate! Review! Subscribe! Or Don't! Have fun! Stay Safe! And WEAR A BLEEPING MASK!
1987: the greatest year for comedy movie releases of all time, this week. Mel Brooks, Rob Reiner, Steve Martin, Robin Williams, Eddie Murphy, and because we have a contract with the enigmatic actor, Nic Cage. What do they have in common? They all released amazing films in 1987 that stand the test of time and make us laugh over and over again. We discuss them all. And Dad bod of the week.
2004! Comedies! We post this a bit out of order from our recording. But we are bad at this. Listen. Or Don't. Subscribe and send us cash. We will give you a receipt.
Michael and Shane continue their breakdown of the greatest action movie era, this time tackling 2002 through 2007. We've got Tom Cruise, Matt Damon, Nolan's Batman, the New Bond, and as always more Nic Cage. If you like us, let us know. We don't care if you subscribe or if you even listen. But for the few of you that listen, let us know what you like about the show. Dad Podz is on Facebook and Twitter. Follow us if you want.
In this extra special episode of Dad Podz, Michael and Shane tackle the best action movies from the definitive action era 1996-2008. We've got Cruise! We've got Will Smith! We've got Keanu! And ladies and gentlemen, we've got a whole steaming hot serving of Nic Cage. This episode is so super charged and full of adrenaline and heart pounding action, we had to split it into 2. Join us for a run down memory lane, a recounting of the best, underrated and 'terribly' good action flicks of the era. Subscribe! Rate! Review! Or don't, we are not your boss.
In this episode, Michael and Shane discuss gumshoes, private dicks, tecs, sleuths, flat foots (feet?), shooflies, and all the private detectives from TV shows they can think of. They not only rank those detectives, they snake draft their favorites. Tune in for the old school like Sherlock Holmes, Matlock and Bruce Wayne, stay for the new school like Rust Cohle, Veronica Mars and Dex Parios. Tell us who has the best 'team.' Comment, review, rate, subscribe! Tell us we are wrong! Agree with us! Tell us who we missed.
This is a departure for Dad Podz, delving into a serious topic. Though it is not explicit, violence is discussed and may be upsetting to hear, though Dad Podz feels it is important to say. Michael and Shane discuss police brutality, the demonstrations around the world, protests and riots. Shane tackles his own white privilege. Michael talks about the systemic problems that require similarly large changes. They discuss some solutions, give some tips on what people can do to help, but mostly they are angry and sad.
At the end, they discuss some kid friendly media that is well representative of other races and cultures. Representation matters.
They even muster up a Dad Bod of the Week.

In this episode, Michael and Shane compare fictional dystopias to our very own hellscape. Which are definitely worse, which are not so bad, and which ones would they totally sacrifice a limb for right about now. They cover Terminator, The Matrix, Blade Runner, Back to the Future 2, and the immortal Demolition Man among countless others. I mean, you could count, but why would you. All that plus an improvised Dad Bod of the Week. Subscribe, rate, review, unsubscribe, resubscribe, re-rate, re-review. Do that a few hundred times in your spare time and Dad Podz will be cooking with gas.
This episode, Michael and Shane recap the previous episode with our kids, which was either a disaster or the best episode, no in between. Then we go over some of the best of the internet: memes, feeds, and trends. We cover great dog content, a trump/star wars crossover, and baseball players with glasses. All that plus the Dad Bod of the week. Please subscribe, rate, review, lather, rinse, repeat.
In this episode, we bring on our 3 children and we find out what a mistake that was. Despite Shane's audio sounding like he is stuck in an airport stall in Buffalo, we have our kids review 10 songs from our past using a best of 5 star system, that evolved in to a best of 100 and higher, and eventually yeah or meh. Join us for discussions of songs from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s, rock, rap, pop, soul and R&B. We learn that Eliot loves 70s rock, Jillian is a 80s pop fan, and Geneva is an old soul fond of 60s R&B. Join us for all that, plus Dad Bod of the Week. Please rate, review, subscribe, tell your friends, fax business partners from 1992, send smoke signals, leave sidewalk chalk messages, all about Dad Podz. Thanks for listening.
This episode we do it: the definitive ranking of all Star Wars movies released to the theater. Unanimous agreement on bottom 2. Deep dives into why we have Last Jedi so high and why all the Bro-Critics online are totally wrong about that film. We also cover why Return of the Jedi is underrated, why Force Awakens and A New Hope are the same movie, a weird Jared Leto reference and as always a Dad-Bod of the Week. Please subscribe, rate, review, unsubscribe, re-rate, re-review. This episode brought to you by sweat shorts. When you want the feel and comfort of sweat pants, but it is either too warm or the crippling depression you live with won't abide fabric below your knees for your quarantine zoom meetings, wear sweat shorts.
Michael and Shane review family movies, some newer movies some from 35 years ago. They rank the top 10 Marvel movies, talk about the Disney dead parent formula, and talk about an underrated baseball movie for kids.
Michael and Shane share the best quarantine and COVID-19 jokes for a little humor in a dark time. We also sing a version of Bohemian Rhapsody that may make you want to throw your earphones through a window.
Michael and Shane discuss Dad Bands, Dad Rock, Great Dad Songs and some lyrics from yesteryear that don't quite hold up.
Join Michael and Shane as they rank their favorite comfort TV shows. We tell you why the best shows aren’t necessarily what you want to curl up with on a bad day. We slam ‘Friends,’ and join us for a very special Dad Bod of the Week.
Episode 2! Back for more. Michael and Shane discuss Youth Sports Culture, kids swim meets, favorite parts of soccer. Then Leftovers, the Leftover Mount Rushmore, Dad eating, and finally David Wells.
