3 – Cartoons, Lies, and Video Tape - a podcast by Jay Edidin & Miles Stokes

Featuring Emergency Backup Co-Host Chris Sims!



In which Rachel and Chris X-plain three cartoons and track a disagreement to its source; Gambit is definitely the worst person you know; Broadcasting Standards and Practices is tired of your death ceremonies; Storm doesn't have an inside voice; and we finally get around to mentioning that one dude with the claws.



X-Plained:



Weaponized creepiness

The evolution (and Evolution) of X-Toons

Why you hate Cyclops (and Rachel doesn't)

Adaptation overload

Broadcast standards, practices, and laser rifles

How to order pizza like a weather goddess

A paramilitary after-school club

G-Rated Wolverine

Comics based on cartoons based on comics

Morph

The Batman Standard

The Wolverine and the X-Men trifecta of perfection

Why the Mojoverse works better on TV

Dazzler's secret second job

Basic jacketry



CORRECTION: In this episode, Rachel mentions that Morph's first comics appearance is in Exiles. It's not: he's in Age of Apocalypse. Mea culpa.
