Even More Mashed-up

The Marvels may have completed its theatrical run but no MCU film is truly complete until Even More Mashed Up weighs in on it! How Marvel-ous (see what we did there?) did we think it was (or wasn't)? Find out in this episode!!

Still recovering from the Thanksgiving holiday? Whether its too much food, shopping, and/or tension with relatives, we've got something to cheer you right up: a new episode of the podcast! In this one, we talk about the good and the bad of the latest Disney+ series from the MCU: Season 2 of Loki!!

The holiday season approaches and that means our hosts' thoughts (well, okay, Patrick's thoughts) turn to one thing: new LEGO sets!! Somehow he managed to convince Allan and Zack that this was a worthy subject for the podcast, which brings us to our latest episode. Topics include the new Avengers Tower set (releasing on Black Friday), what other sets we'd like to see from LEGO, a bunch of LEGO Fun Facts, and so much more!!

Just like the leaves changing color or pumpkin spice appearing everywhere, another Fall tradition continues at Even More Mashed Up: our discussion of the finalists for this year's Toy Hall of Fame. We talk about what made the shortlist, what should and shouldn't have, and ... delve into Zack's fondness for Little People toys? It's all there and more in this week's episode!!

It's an episode chock-full of anniversaries to celebrate: not only do we celebrate all things Avengers for that series' 60th anniversary, but this episode also marks the 7th anniversary of Even More Mashed Up! Allan brought all kind of "gifts" for Patrick in the form of various Avengers-related rankings: from the movies to characters to storylines, we cover it all in this week's podcast!!

This year is the 60th anniversary of the X-Men's debut, so we are celebrating the occasion with a nostalgia-filled discussion of our favorite (and least favorite) characters, artists, storylines, and so much more!! Welcome to the 60th Anniversary X-Men SpeXtacular...We hope you survive the experience!

This episode is a veritable cornucopia of topics, as we cover any number of topics in what we call a Pop Culture Potpourri. Topics include the podcast-ability of upcoming films, what the upcoming DCEU can learn from the DCU, and a nostalgia-filled romp through popular culture in 1983!

Just in time for the long holiday weekend, it's another new episode of the podcast. We're talking #BlueBeetle, the latest (if not the last) release in the DCEU before the DCU (which isn't confusing at all) kicks off! It's another far-ranging discussin in the inimitable Even More Mashed Up style for your listening enjoyment!!

The summer's been a busy time so we haven't had a chance to tape many podcast episodes. But what we've been able to do is see some movies and streaming shows, so here are our not-so-quick takes on a whole bunch of them from this summer: Barbie! Oppenheimer! Secret Invasion! Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny! American Born Chinese! #barbie #oppenheimer #barbenheimer #indianajones #secretinvasion #americanbornchinese

We might have slowed the podcast down a little bit with the start of summer, but what better movie to get us back up to speed than The Flash? Though the film seems to have stumbled out of the gate with critics and audiences both, no superhero film's fate is certain until Even More Mashed Up weighs in!

It's the start of our Summer Season (#summerseason), and it kicks off with our discussion of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse! Does the sequel live up to its predecessor, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, which some (okay, it's us!) would argue is the best superhero film? Will Allan finally enjoy a film based on the multiverse, or does Across the Spider-Verse continue the struggles of post-peak superhero movies? These answers--and more!--await you in this episode!!

The fun continues with even more questions from Zach and our lovely listeners!

We've turned control of the show over to Zach, who has come with questions on all things pop culture for us from him as well as various loyal listeners. (Note: This episode was recorded prior to the MCU Draft and our discussion of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3).

The latest entry in the MCU just finished its opening weekend, but it's not truly a success until Allan & Patrick weigh in. Do they find it a fitting finale to the Guardians trilogy? Does it do anything to change the post-Endgame (mis)fortunes of the MCU? Will they end up spending a significant amount of time arguing about completely different films? Listen to learn which one of these questions is a definite "Yes!"

With Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 opening later this week, it's time for the MCU Draft where Allan, Patrick, and Zach attempt to put together their best roster of MCU films. Which film will be the #1 pick? Which film will be last? Which member of the Mashed Up crew--coughZachcough--reveals their true, evil nature? These answers--and more!--await in this week's podcast!

There's lots of new movies and streaming series coming out, but how will you know what to watch? Even More Mashed Up is here for you as Allan and Patrick talk about the trailers and their varying levels of anticipation for Secret Invasion, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3, Indiana Jones & the Dial of Destiny, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, The Flash, Blue Beetle, Barbie, and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse!

This week's episode is dropping a bit late, but it's because Allan and Patrick were on a quest for a fun, stand-alone adventure film! Will Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Amongst Thieves be the reward they seek? Roll for initiative and find out!

Well, the latest DC movie may not have panned out at the box office, but there's a whole new plan for the company's movie universe, helmed by James Gunn and Peter Safran. We'll see just how much excitement the released slate of films generates on this episode!

It's an episode of mythic (see what we did there?) proportions as we talk about the latest (and almost the last) of the DCEU films: Shazam! Fury of the Gods! Does the Shazam! franchise strike lightning twice or does it fizzle out? Find out what we think in this week's episode!

It's that time of year again: for Allan & Patrick to make their picks for this year's Oscars despite having seen relatively few of the films! Who do they think should win versus who they think will win? The answers await in this week's episode!
