We break down major Marvel updates, debate who Anne Hathaway could play in the MCU (Emma Frost? Mystique? chaos incarnate?), and spiral into multiverse madness with Spider-Man theories that may or may not end in emotional damage. We also talk X-Men ‘97 Season 2, zombie superheroes snacking like it’s a buffet, and a Mario movie that critics side-eye while fans throw gold coins at the screen.

Expect hot takes, wild theories, and at least one moment where parenting skills are publicly questioned. 🍝 ⸻ ⏱️ Timestamps & Topics • 00:00 – Chaos intro + audio gremlins attack • 03:14 – X-Men ‘97 Season 2 breakdown (Polaris hype!) • 11:09 – Anne Hathaway enters MCU rumor mill • 18:26 – Daredevil: Born Again Defenders reunion tease • 20:22 – Marvel Zombies Season 2 insanity • 24:05 – Spider-Man multiverse theories (Miles?? 👀) • 31:30 –…
