    Plus members don’t really get enough content for $5 a month. Kyle interrupts Robbie too much. Gets a little annoying. Also, they literally love everything marvel makes. No honest criticism and review. But decent pod

  • A Staple for any MCU Fan

    FFW has been a part of my weekly podcast routine for years now. Their reviews and input always bring a positive yet critical light to all things MCU. It’s fun to have their podcast as listening material for new MCU projects that come out. And, their Patreon content is worth every penny!
