The Marvel Cinematic Universe has taken us on a collective journey from one film to the next, all the way through the Infinity Saga (and it will continue beyond that). As fans, it brings us great joy to share these experiences, and yet we each have our own unique stories of how we found this franchise in the first place, and how it has moved us during the time we've spent with it.
Every fan has their story to tell and we're going to start hearing them on the podcast. We begin with Maya, who's been following the franchise since Iron Man, but felt her enthusiasm for the MCU elevated by a different Marvel Studios movie.

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has come to an end after seven seasons on ABC. On this episode, we examine the legacy of the show from the "Coulson Lives" campaign and series premiere (which was a big deal in 2013) to the show's two endings, and all of the successes and struggles in between. We also look at where the show fits within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's a good thing we have multiple timelines now!

The Black Lives Matter movement is vital if our society is ever going to offer true equality for all. Overcoming systemic racism means examining our own complicity, regardless of our intent. In this episode, Sean Gerber looks at how fandom has contributed to systemic oppression by trying to artificially separate social commentary from entertainment in order to silence the conversations we should be having. The MCU and its fans have not been immune to this. We can and must do better if we are to say the stories and heroes of the MCU offer more than a disposable distraction from the real world. It's time for us to be true to the thematic core of the MCU. It's time to reflect, learn, hold ourselves accountable, and grow.
