- The caliber of their guests tells you everything you need to know
I stumbled across this podcast when I was in need of comic book discussion without all the ranting that has become so commonplace in the fandom these days. Bryan, Robb and Jamie are the perfect blend of informed yet casual and humorous. I was amazed that even though they aren’t part of any podcasting network, they were able to score some of the biggest names in comics: Tom Brevoort, Brian Michael Bendis, Matt Fraction, Mark Russell, Chelsea Cain, David F. Walker, Joe Keatinge, Steve Englehart, G... more

United States3 months ago - Incredible, Amazing, Uncanny, etc. etc.
I’ve been away from podcasts for a few years, but Douglas Wolk’s All the Marvels audiobook, led me to Voice of Latveria, which brought me here. I never thought I could love comics more, let alone learn something new from them. And guess what? I can, and I do.

MBTM offers commentary on past absurdities, historical perspective, laughs, a fantastic array of guests, and welcome recommendations for the cream of the crop of more current comics and pop culture. As someone whose closest friend with a love of comics passed a few years ago, this podcast gives me a taste of bei... more
Apple Podcasts5saauva91United States7 months ago - My Nostalgia Go To Fix
Found this podcast a little more than a year ago. Scrolled back to summer 1973 which was when I started reading Marvel Comics. I was a DC kid but when we moved overseas, the base commissary only had Marvel. I quickly became a fan.
Each episode takes me back to that time where I was 10 up to 13 or 14 with the most recent episodes.
I powered through 1973-75 2-3 episodes a week. Now that I’ve caught up to the current episodes, one episode a week seems a leisurely pace. Love the off-week content... more
