Convincing Matt for a chronological X-Men discussion

00:00:06
Speaker
a donut. I wanted to bring, i brought you here because what I wanted to did propose to you is that we and you talk about the X-Men.
00:00:14
Speaker
The X-Men? And I thought it'd be cool if we talked about it on recording. Okay. Every week. Okay. In chronological order from the very beginning of the series in 1963.

Birth of the 'Mutant Menace' podcast

00:00:26
Speaker
I'm sold. Matt, if we're recording it, why don't we just turn it into a podcast?
00:00:30
Speaker
That sounds like a great

Character deep dive: Professor X and Cyclops

00:00:31
Speaker
idea. What if we name that podcast Mutant Menace? Okay. What do you know? Let's just, what do you know about the X-Men? hu Well, I know that they are run by a strange old man. I know that they yeah live in a mansion.
00:00:47
Speaker
Okay. I know that there's five of them.

Team dynamics: Cyclops, the girl, and Beast

00:00:50
Speaker
Okay, well, the strange old man that you mentioned, his name's Professor X. He loves to lie to children and erase people's brains.
00:00:58
Speaker
I've also seen Cyclops, the man that can't handle his own eyes. Yeah, he's he's afraid of them. and makes It means that he can't love. For example, he can't love the girl on the team and who is...
00:01:12
Speaker
The most powerful of them, but yet is introduced simply as an attractive young lady. What about Beast, my favorite intelligent furry little guy?
00:01:23
Speaker
and Was he always intelligent? Are you sure he's always intelligent?

Unique characters: Rich mutant with wings and Iceman

00:01:27
Speaker
oh How about the incredibly handsome and rich mutant whose power is... Wings.
00:01:34
Speaker
it This all sounds great. What could I throw in to sweeten the pot? What would really sell this? I guess maybe if there was a pile of mashed potatoes wearing boots.
00:01:46
Speaker
You're in luck! Because there is! It's Iceman! And is obsessed with ice cream!
