Plus Lucas shares interview clips from conversations with fellow cinematic universe fans captured during his recent away mission to Gem State Comic Con. (Edited by Lucas Longacre)

The Last Airbender’s popularity stems its moving story arcs and unforgettable cast of characters. A fan favorite (among many) is the meditative, kind, and tea-loving Uncle Iroh. The 'Verse! got the chance to speak with Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, who portrays the him in the latest series. Lee was a relative latecomer to the animated series, but a dedicated fan episode one, to when he was fan-cast as Iroh, to now.

The doctors are in! The squad is on call to diagnose a cinematic universe franchise that’s close to all of our hearts: the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Setting aside our conflicts of interest, we diagnose and plan a course of treatment for the ailing franchise, taking into account patient complaints (aka whatever the general public thinks is the problem), current symptoms (aka whatever our resident MCU MDs know is the problem), propose treatment and give the prognosis. This is a can’t-miss episode for anyone who’s ever started a sentence with, “Here’s the problem with the MCU today…” Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @TheVerseCast where we post news, announcements about the pod, and collect listener questions.  If you stick around after the credits, we get a little starry-eyed…

The Squad puts the ship into overdrive to turn back time and catch The Marvels in theaters! We’re back now to tell you all about it with our initial impressions, a breakdown of what worked and what didn’t, and how we felt about that musical number…. But if you’re a longtime ‘Verse! listener, you know that we don’t review movies like everyone else with a friend and a microphone, we review movies with a round of poetry and wrap it up with our totally original letter grading scale. Tune in to hear our takes! We also revive our news segment to discuss the latest and greatest in cinematic universe updates. For more news, follow us on Twitter @TheVerseCast and Instagram where we also post announcements about the pod and collect listener questions.  If you stick around after the credits, ah-ah-ACHOO!!!

This week, get ready for a double feature of NEW shows for the squad to dive into. Up first is in the tried and trusted Marvel Cinematic Universe with Echo, which follows Maya Lopez just after the events of the Hawkeye show and her dramatic season finale. Echo is just five episodes but it packs in a ton of cinematic storytelling and history. We had a lot to discuss here from the casting to the writing to the costumes to the music! Next we journey into the universe of The Boys with the college-setting spinoff, Gen V. Clearly it's been too long since the last season of The Boys because we were not expecting that level of diabolical blood n guts. Can Gen V measure up to The Boys’ reputation? Tune in to find out! Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @TheVerseCast where we post news, announcements about the pod, and collect listener questions.  If you stick around after the credits, get your umbrellas because it's raining purple… SHOW BREAKDOWN: 0:00 – Intro // 3:09 - Marvel’s Echo // 46:07 ‘Gen V’ // 73:28 – Contact Info // 76:24 Post Credit - Fave Super Bowl Halftime Shows

The squad is back after an ill-advised holiday pit stop in the cesspool of viruses that is Earth. Hope our space sniffles let up soon. In the meantime, we cover Invincible season two with episodes 3 and 4. Tune in to find out if this season is living up to the high expectations set by season one, our favorite storylines so far, and how we think this season’s unintentional mid-season break will affect its reception overall. Next we get back in the TARDIS to relive some holiday cheer with the Doctor Who Christmas special which also marks Ncuti Gatwa’s full-time debut performance as the 15th Doctor! So much to unpack here from a new companion, a renewed energy and special effects befitting of the 21st century, and a…dubious new sonic screwdriver design. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @TheVerseCast where we post news, announcements about the pod, and collect listener questions.  If you stick around after the credits, put on a mask becau-ACHOO! Oops…

The people want more tenth Doctor, so that’s exactly what the people will get. In this episode, the squad continues their retrospective of NuWho with series 4, aka the series that introduced us to the iconic Doctor/Donna duo. And just in case you’re still sad about how that series ended (we are too), we follow it up immediately with coverage of the three 60th Anniversary specials that just came out this season. What did you think of the latest specials? Did they feel a little too wild and blue? Awaken your inner star beast? Give you a bit of a giggle? Let us know on our socials ⁠Twitter⁠ and ⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠@TheVerseCast⁠ where we post news, announcements about the pod, and collect listener questions.  SHOW BREAKDOWN: 0:00 – Intro // 2:00 - Doctor Who Series 4 // 61:30 Doctor Who Series 60th Anniversary Specials // 95:45 – Contact Info // 96:55 – Post Credit - Holiday Cocktails, anyone?

We continue our Doctor Who 60th Anniversary retrospective with series 2 (David Tennant’s second season). It is a season that brought us classics like “Human Nature”, “The Family of Blood Gridlock”, and perhaps the most talked about episode in Doctor Who history, “Blink”. Don’t worry we’re covering the specials in depth for our next episode of timey-whimey coverage of everything The Doctor including ALL 12 seasons predating the new specials and right into Ncuti Gatwa’s upcoming season. Hang tight our timeline may be a little wacky, but the conversations are timeless. We also give a full 40 minutes to the start of Prime Video’s Invincible season two. After the long pause it took some of us time to get back into the city, but the series still packs a punch. So, hit play, but don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. Our hosts are fast. Faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back. Don't walk away. And most of all, don't blink. Good Luck.

Let’s just say there are numerous variants found in our opinions of the series. Finally (after the credits) we close out our coverage of Paramount+’s Star Trek: Lower Decks a series that just keeps getting better and better.

The 'Verse! Squad is back after a visit to earth to cover all things New York Comic. Four days of coverage totaling 100+ hours of everything from Star Trek to Futurama, For All Mankind, Buffy, Scott Pilgrim and more. We also head into the TARDIS (which smells of Dr. Pepper for some reason) to continue our DOCTOR WHO Retrospective - David Tennant's first season (series two) and finally close out AHSOKA too with a lively discussion.

The squad blasts off to our favorite Star-iverses. First up is Star Wars to cover Ahsoka episode 6 and finally see some anxiously anticipated on-screen appearances. Tune in to hear what we loved, what we were wrong about in past theories, and what we’re manifesting for the finale. Next up is Star Trek to cover Lower Decks episodes 3-4 where we get to see how Boimler handles his first away mission as a leader (spoiler alert, it’s poorly), and meet Tendi’s family.

The Squad continues coverage of Disney+’s Ahsoka, and we’ve finally reached the episode that makes this solidly an Ahsoka show and not a Sabine show! Not that we were complaining. There’s lots of discussion about Rebels and the Clone Wars for seasoned Star Wars masters, but no spoilers for any budding Padawans. Next we spin off back to the Doctor Who-iverse to finish our collective NuWho series one blindspot. Emilia is here to shepherd the squad into the Tenth-nant era #thatsmydoctor, and everyone’s loving it! Well, most of the Squad.

The squad continues their coverage of Disney+’s Ahsoka, including that reveal and we once again all align around the indisputable fact that well, light sabers are cool. As are fezzes and Stetsons and fish fingers and custard…The rest of the squad will understand that reference soon enough because we’ve begun filling in our Doctor Who blindspot! Our resident Whovian Emilia (and Filmsnork behind the scenes!) invites the squad and audience to step into the TARDIS beginning with a retrospective on NuWho. We cover the must-see episodes of series one of the revived series with the 9th doctor, Christopher Eccleston.  To round out our tour of cinematic universes for this episode, we also revisit Star Trek: Lower Decks for the season four premiere. If you’re curious about Star Trek but don’t know where to start, the squad would prescribe a healthy dose of the animated series Lower Decks, plus Strange New Worlds, and then thank us in the morning! Follow us on Twitter @TheVerseCast (and on Instagram) where we post news, announcements about the pod, and collect listener questions.

We begin our coverage of the latest Disney+ Star Wars series, Ahsoka, by discussing episodes 1-3. We have some big Clone Wars and Rebels fans on the squad, and Emilia’s here too. Tune in to hear us discuss the Star Wars context you need to know to watch Ahsoka, our favorite moments of the show so far, and how well we think the live action series translates from animation! We also revive our long-suffering news segment for this episode to catch up on some of the latest cinematic universe updates from the last few weeks. Follow us on Twitter @TheVerseCast where we post news, announcements about the pod, and collect listener questions. If you stick around after the credits, watch out for that puddle of rum in the kitchen…
