Episodes
-
We Are Groot: Black Widow
The guys talk about Black Widow. In a shocking Phase 4 reversal, Ian's a little bit harder on this one than Bobby. The guys can at least agree that this movie is a pretty stale consolation prize for a character who has been with us since nearly the beginning.
-
We are Groot: Falcon and the Winter Soldier
After a hiatus, we are back! And so are Falcon and the Winter Soldier. What happens when Disney and the MCU try to tackle the real world implications of having a Captain America while also dipping a toe into the complicated and messy conversation about America's relationship with racism? You get...
-
We Are Groot: Wandavision
We'll go ahead and ignore your Agents of SHIELD and your Agent Carters. And your Daredevils and Defenders. And also your Runaways. Was Cloak and Dagger part of the MCU? Listen, Marvel has been pushing TV projects basically since the first Avengers movie, so it's kind of bizarre that they are...
-
We Are Groot: Spider-Man Far From Home
After a prolonged break, we're back and ready to tackle the post-Endgame MCU. Tom Holland's Spider-Man has largely been defined by his relationship to Tony Stark. So what happens when Tony Stark is removed from the equation? Ian and Bobby argue about it, obviously. Enjoy the last MCU entry to…

We Are Groot: Avengers Endgame
Here it is, the Endgame of all your good intentions. I literally can't believe that Avatar is the highest grossing movie of all time.
-
We Are Groot: Captain Marvel
The guys tackle the MCU's first female-led superhero movie. Bobby apparently hates women.
-
We Are Groot: Ant-Man and the Wasp
Here's the film follow-up the entire world was clamoring for! Marvel's biggest A-lister, hot off his mega-hit movie, returns for a sequel--and this time he's got his girlfriend! What's the deal with Ant-Man and the Wasp anyway. Are they official? Are they seeing other people? Here's a movie where...
-
We Are Groot: Avengers Infinity War
Ian and Bobby tackle Infinity War. Or Avengers 3. Or Endgame Part 1. Bobby is up to usually shenanigans and hates this movie. Everyone rolls their eyes and Bobby begs to understand why this movie is so well regarded. Listen, Bobby's wrong. If you're going to support the output of one of the…

We Are Groot: Black Panther
Wakanda Forever! Ian and Bobby do Black Panther! What's to say? It's Black Panther. It's the MCU film that became a cultural zeitgeist, made T'Challa a household name, cemented the late Chadwick Boseman's legacy, spawned #KillmongerWasRight, and got itself a bunch of Oscar nominations, including...
-
We Are Groot: Thor Ragnarok
It's the end of the world as Thor knows it, and he doesn't actually feel great about. Here's the dour movie an entire chunk of Age of Ultron teased and it's...not actually very dour at all. Unlike the other Thor movies, Ian and Bobby agree that Thor Ragnarok is kind of great. The MCU finally...
-
We Are Groot: Spider-Man Homecoming
Spidey's home baybeeeee! It had been a two years since Tom Holland's appearance in Civil War and an amazing four years since Andrew Garfield's turn as the webslinger. We were dangerously close to violating the contract we made with the Ancient Ones, which stipulates that in order to maintain...
-
We Are Groot: Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2

We Are Groot: Doctor Strange

-
We Are Groot: Captain America Civil War
Captain America and Iron Man face their biggest threat yet - the dissolution of their friendship.

-
We Are Groot: Ant-Man
Ant-Man had one of the most storied productions in the MCU, surviving delays and creative team changes. But is it any good? Ian and Bobby debate the merits of Yellow Jacket, try to pick apart what Edgar Wright contributed, wonder why Wasp wasn't just the hero anyway, and get into a little too…
more -
We Are Groot: Avengers Age of Ultron
Ian and Bobby are near the end of Phase Two with the second Avengers outing. Age of Ultron is oft maligned, but the guys agree that it shouldn't be maligned as oft, because the movie kind of rocks. The guys have discuss Whedon's strengths, his real bummer fatal flaws, and his apparent weird…
more -
We Are Groot: Guardians of the Galaxy
Ooga chaka ooga chaka ooga ooga ooga chaka! Ian and Bobby jump into James Gunn's space opera Guardians of the Galaxy. The guys basically agree that this movie rocks, but just how important is this film within the grand scheme of the MCU? How important is our existence within the grand scheme of…
more -
We Are Groot: Captain America The Winter Soldier
Captain America: The Winter Soldier is regarded by many as one of the best MCU films. Ian and Bobby dig in to see how well this one has aged. How does Cap fare in the modern world? What is with Sharon? Will Steve and Bucky ever kiss? Will Bobby ever shut up about violence in the MCU? (No.) Next...
-
We Are Groot: Thor The Dark World
Ian and Bobby dig into the film that is widely regarded as one of the worst films in the MCU. Does it have any redeeming value? Maybe? If there's one thing that Ian and Bobby can always agree on, it's that Darcy is the best. Next up...Winter Soldier!
-
We Are Groot: Iron Man 3
Ian and Bobby enter Phase 2! The guys unite in their appreciation of this underrated MCU gem. Is it as good as they thought it once was? Probably not. But you, dear listener, are almost certainly wrong about it. Is this the end of Tony Stark's arc? Are the villains interesting? And who the heck…
more -
We Are Groot - The Avengers
Here it is - the end of Phase One! Ian and Bobby revisit the song that basically kicked off the MCU as we know it today. The guys discuss how these disparate characters work sharing the spotlight, touch upon the strengths and problematic weaknesses of Joss Whedon's work, and debate just how good…

-
We Are Groot: Iron Man 2
Ian and Bobby are almost halfway through Phase One! Nobody ever really talks about Tony Stark's second MCU outing. Is it Phase One's hidden gem? Is Sam Rockwell always good? What's with Mickey Rourke's bird? Does the MCU have a third act problem? Is Randy's Donuts overrated? Tune in for the…
more -
We Are Groot: The Incredible Hulk
The guys continue their MCU rewatch with a film that has sort has been disowned from the MCU. What's the deal with Edward Norton's Bruce Banner? Is Blonsky a good villain? Is Elizabeth Taylor in this movie? Would a production line shut down if a drop of blood landed in a soda bottle? Ian and…
more -
We Are Groot: Iron Man
The guys embark on a long MCU rewatch journey. Is there any abuse the MCU can dole out that Ian won't suffer? Will Bobby be insufferable grumpy through the whole thing? Join in as Ian and Bobby watch the movie that started it all: Iron Man (2008) directed by Jon Favreau.

Watchmen (HBO)
The guys are back for their first podcast recorded during the quarantine, and they decide to do a king sized episode about Damien Lindelof's HBO adaptation/sequel of Moore and Gibbons Watchmen. After gushing about the ways in which the series works as an adaptation, Ian analyzes his favorite new...
-
Star Wars: The Disney Years
Bobby and Ian recorded this episode pre-pandemic, and it has aged really poorly. Maybe Bobby shouldn't take several months to edit an episode next time. I mean, what excuse does he even have? It's not like he has lots of places to go. If you want to listen to two guys, blissfully unaware of the...
-
Watchmen (Graphic Novel)

The Superbad Formula
The guys talk about video games like they do. Ian's into Fire Emblem and Bobby's into Super Nintendo games. Then, the guys go deep into Superbad and the two most recent twists on the teen sex comedy genre--Booksmart and Good Boys. (Listen, I get it. Good Boys isn't a teen comedy. Save it for...
-
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
After an extended hiatus, Bobby and Ian are back with a new title and a new look to their show!
