#166 – Ironheart Ep. 2 – “Will the Real Natalie Please Stand Up?”: AI, Grief, Trouble Ahead
Riri’s new AI is her dead best friend. And that’s just the beginning.
The mystery of Natalie deepens—and Riri Williams is caught between genius and grief. From an awkward crew meetup to a dangerous heist beneath Chicago, Episode 2 brings big questions, magical mayhem, and a whole lot of moral gray. I break down Joe’s shady tech stash, The Hood’s villain speech, and what might be Marvel’s boldest AI storyline yet. Also? Cubs fans, dog poop, flower-snipping tension… You know, just another day in the MCU.
