Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future.

This week we have the amazing cosplayer/musical theater actor Olivia DeFilippo on the show to talk about a really f-ing weird issue. Olivia was born the month Cerebro's X-Men debuted. You remember them right? No? That's because no one does. The Fake X-Men try and take the mantle from the Real X-Men and it's a lot.
Also on this episode:

• Cosplaying Rogue as Gambit
• Doing a "Reverse Wanda"
• Call backs upon call backs
• Introducing your brand new X-Men team
• Gray Papaya King
• Nunneries that are devoted to helping injured birds
• Tonya Harding as an X-Man
• Leonardo DiCaprio as an X-Man
• Professor X is Hole

All that plus the total termination of all mutants on earth. What does any of this mean for Olivia's future? Tune in to find out!

Olivia DeFilippo, known across socials as @thelibraliv, is an NYC based actor, singer, cosplayer, proud Libra, and forever fangirl. She is best known for her cosplays of her favorite Marvel characters including Rogue, Scarlet Witch, and Black Widow, as well as cosplays from other fandoms…the *other fandoms* mostly being Star Wars and more Star Wars.

Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future.

This week on the show we have Sara Century, host of the Best Issue Ever podcast and co-writer for The Forgotten Five comic (which is truly a lot of fun).

We discuss her birth month and year issue - Uncanny X-Men 167 - which is basically mom and dad issues galore, as Professor X is transformed into a Brood Queen and the X-Men have to fight their way through the New Mutants to kill him! What?!

Also in this episode:

• Wolverine is hard to top
• What Sara would do with a time machine
• The X-Men meet-fight the New Mutants (it's like a meet-cute only it's not cute like, at all)
• Kitty Pryde, at the age of 15, is sent to assassinate her teacher with a lava lamp
• Body horror all over the place
• Captain Marvel commits genocide for fun
• The morality of killing the Brood
• Cyclops probably should’ve fucked off to space

All this plus someday Gandhi will be quoting Sara Century. What does any of it mean for Sara's future? Tune in to find out!
