This week, TK is joined by professor and writer Jonathan Evans who shares an adapted version of his 2022 Popular Cultural Association presentation "The MCU versus the Snyderverse: Ideological Conceptions of the Superhero."

Jonathan shares such nuggets of insight as "Superheroes' greatest power is their ability to model for us in the real world the behaviors that we should deem important and want to imitate."

We also discuss Moon Knight, Multiverse of Madness, and all of the doors that the MCU has opened for future storytelling.

I know I'm bloody not alone. This week TK is joined by teacher and theologian Daniel to dig into the big ideas of episodes 3 and 4 of Moon Knight.

We talk about our favorite moments from these two mid-season episodes and discuss how the show diverges from the rest of the MCU in its conceptions of gods and the divine.
