  • #159 – Behind the Show – Where I’ve Been, Where We’re Going
    Jun 6 2025

    In this special Friday minisode, Eric skips the usual movie breakdown for something a little more personal — a check-in between episodes, between moods, between milestones. After almost revisiting Captain America: Brave New World (and realizing the timing wasn’t right), he pivots into honesty, sharing where Marvel Maniac has been, what it’s become, and where it’s headed next. From podcast consistency to personal growth, today’s episode is about showing up — even when it’s not flashy — and staying connected to the mission. Plus: a gentle tease for what might be coming in Episode 200. 😉 Thanks for being here. Thanks for listening. The streak continues.

  • #157 – Doomsday & Secret Wars DELAYED – What’s Really Going On?
    May 30 2025

    Marvel just delayed Doomsday and Secret Wars by 7 months—but is that the full story? Eric breaks down why this delay feels like the beginning of something bigger, including a compelling theory from Colton Ogburn (ScreenCrush) that suggests we could be getting a third Avengers film—possibly Secret Avengers—before the saga’s finale. Is Marvel slow-rolling the real Multiverse shake-up? Is a stronger middle chapter being built before Secret Wars? Let’s talk about what’s really going on with the Avengers timeline—and what this could mean for the MCU’s future.

    Karachi! Kamala journeys across the globe and steps deeper into her destiny in Ms. Marvel Episode 4: “Seeing Red.” But with the arrival of the Red Daggers, a whole new order enters the picture—and so do a lot of questions.
