  • Our Greatest Moments in Fandom
    Sep 9 2025

    Our first ep back after hiatus is titled “Our Greatest Moments in Fandom”. It’s the whole gang of Ed, Ron and Producer Bill, breaking down the moments, movies, and magazines that turned us into such nerds. This is almost Patreon-esque in how personal we get. However, the vast array of pop ephemera that we talk about here will surely cause you to take your own trips down memory lane. It’s good to be back. New eps every Monday. Labor Day didn’t count! Bye!

  • Will Fantastic Four or Superman be The Greatest
    May 27 2025

    We ask, “Will Fantastic Four or Superman be The Greatest?”, in the box office and pop-cultural battle that looms this summer. They both herald a back to basics approach in a market where people have convinced themselves there’s no more places to go. Leave it up to two originals to prove them wrong…maybe. After all, these characters are as retro as they are forward thinking, as wholesome as they are powerful. Is this what the people want? Hell is this approach actually PERFECT for these fractured times? Listen and find out!!!

  • Marvel's Greatest Comeback
    May 19 2025

    In this supersized spoiler chat, we debate whether the one two punch of Thunderbolts* and Daredevil : Born Again represents “Marvel’s Greatest Comeback.” Ed and Producer Bill ask, can these street level heroes and super spies cement the new foundation for the Fantastic Doomsdays to come? Is Daredevil great, wildly uneven, or both? Are the Thunderbolts* really able to replace the Avengers? Listen to us try to figure it out babay!!

  • The Greatest Reboots of Reboot It on YouTube
    Apr 23 2025

    “Our Greatest Reboots” features the gang reunited, including Billy Business of Hot Takes with Billy Biz and the YouTube Channel “Reboot It”! By the way, our sister show “Reboot It” is coming back. In this primer episode of The Greatest Pod, we discuss the “art” of the reboot, if such a thing exists. Also, much of this episode is looking back on OUR best reboots on the channel. Some real life reboots that were made during our hiatus were pretty similar to “our” imaginary versions. Barbie is in the same genre and nearly the same tone as our He-man Pitch. Our episode about The Universal Monster is maybe our most popular piece but the Blumhouse Universal monster movies are hit and miss so far. Are we better than Leigh Whannell? NO. But it’s interesting how often we think like the best of the big boys. Overall this conversation asks almost, what evolutionary purpose is there to reinterpret stories this much. Is our present proclivity to remake rather than create stunting that evolution? Reboots are gonna happen. We’re trying to use our powers for good. Is that possible? Find out every week on Reboot It coming this summer back to YouTube. Link below!

  • The Greatest Fake News (Daily Bugle, Daily Planet)
    Mar 11 2025

    In fictional universes somebody has to break the news. “The Greatest ‘Fake News’” is Ed, Ron and Producer Bill imagining what the media landscapes are in two of the most popular fictional universes. Why are superheroes attracted to the news? How intense would the politicization of Superman be? What jobs would you pick if you knew certain “the real deal” about the universe you lived in? Would you be a henchman? In this economy? Would people in superhero universes be even more sick of the tights, capes and lack of consequences than we seem to be in our world? What does the “triumph of the human will” mean in a world of demigods on TV? This one gets philosophical but remains pretty damn funny throughout. Dive in.

  • The Greatest Superheroes that Aren't
    Feb 12 2025

    "The Greatest Superheroes That Aren't” is our crew, Ed, Ron, and Professor Bill, dissecting those movies and TV shows that center on someone with a superpower but nobody admits it! All types of heroic stories from Commando to Colombo feature heroes with superior powers that must fight unbeatable odds and we discuss these characters comparing and contrasting them with conventional super heroic fare.

  • The Greatest Pasts
    Jan 30 2025

    “The Greatest Pasts” features the whole crew talking about period pieces from our iconoclastic perspectives. We don’t go gaga when you put a few period cars in the shot and have everybody say “gee whiz”, it takes more than that to get us feeling like we’re in the past. We discuss our favorite examples in this banger of an ep.

    *This is the last one where Ed’s audio is a bit bad because he was visiting his mom in the south and didn’t take his podcasting equipment. He and we are back babay!!
