Episode 199 swings into the future of everyone’s favorite web-slinger. Eric Sequeira (aka Mr. Honest) breaks down the rumors surrounding Spider-Man: Brand New Day — what the title could mean, how it connects to No Way Home and the One More Day comics, and why Peter Parker’s absence from Avengers: Doomsday might be the most powerful choice Marvel could make. It’s speculation, emotion, and pure Spider-Man love — all leading into next week’s milestone: Episode 200 — My Own Hero.
🎧 Listen, reflect, and celebrate the next swing of the MCU’s most resilient hero.

Nick Fury once said, “There was an idea…” That idea didn’t end with the Battle of New York — it became the blueprint that built an entire cinematic universe. In this powerful reflection, Eric Sequeira (aka Mr. Honest) lines up Phase One against the Multiverse Saga, exploring how Marvel’s early conviction, patience, and character-first storytelling still echo across today’s multiversal landscape. From Iron Man’s gamble and Cap’s conviction to Doctor Doom’s looming debut in Phase Six, this episode asks what the MCU’s future can still learn from its humble beginnings. A celebration of belief, legacy, and the ever-evolving heartbeat of Marvel. Because the idea was never just about heroes — it was about us.

Five months after its release, Thunderbolts is still living rent-free in my soul. This is our third conversation about the film — not a recap, but a reflection on what sticks after the hype fades. From Bucky’s scars to Yelena’s transformation, John Walker’s stigma, Ghost’s pain, Red Guardian’s yearning, and Val as a dark mirror of Fury — these are Marvel’s flawed, haunted heroes who still earn their place. And then there’s the tension: Sam Wilson, trying to form his own Avengers, only sees Bucky running with misfits under Val. That collision of perspectives — polished Captain America vs. scarred Thunderbolts — sets the stage for some of Marvel’s most charged storytelling ahead. The Void, friendship, redemption, second chances — this is Marvel’s grittier team story, and it deserves a spotlight.

In this special look-ahead, host Eric Sequeira (a.k.a. Mr. Honest) lays out the roadmap: from Thunderbolts and Wonder Man to Blade, X-Men ‘97, the Defenders era, and even Spider-Man’s video game saga. Plus, how the Spider-Verse films and Tobey/Andrew rewatches could set the stage for Secret Wars. Your input matters — even months (or years) after this episode drops.

Thanos isn’t just Marvel’s greatest villain — he’s Marvel’s most complete villain. Calm philosopher in Infinity War. Vengeful warlord in Endgame. And somehow, the centerpiece of my comfort rewatch. In this episode, I break down the duality of Thanos:
