Marvel vs. NASA
from Catching Foxes · host Luke and Gomer
Gomer and Luke start out with some banter, then follow-up. The topic for today is contrasting "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" with "For All Mankind" in the areas where they treat social issues. Gomer bashes the crap out of Marvel for their inability in this show to not be on the nose and praises the writers and actors of "For All Mankind" so creating such compelling characters that you actually think they are, you know, human. Just when you think the villains are pure villains, they aren't. Just when you think the one-dimensional man is a bigot, he's not. Just when you think the mission will finally succeed, it doesn't. Or does it? Cap demand we "do better" but AppleTV actually does! Two Follow-Ups, Main Topic, followed by complaining about Restrictions.
