  • Get Down! I go where Solving for X wants to go!

    No place to hide, no place to run. The Shawn and Kevin age has now begun. As an X-treme X-Men casual this is an essential podcast to listen to. Not only do you get charming witty banter but you also get a wealth of context and behind the scenes knowledge of all things X-Men. Listening to these brings a smile to my face and brightens my day and I have Pryde to have known Shawn and Kevin in my lifetime. Give this a listen, it’s a Gambit that will bring you Jubilee!
