About this episode

There are numerous ways to rank the numerous, painstakingly-intertwined movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), and on today's show, Fran & Rose bravely tackle many such hierarchies with comic book nerd and comedian Joel Kim Booster. Including: which movie features Scarlett's worst wig? Which franchises are anchored by STARS who are NOT actresses and which star ACTRESSES who are NOT stars? And of course, what is the gayest Marvel movie?? If you're a Marvel fan you'll love the deep-cut commentary, but we promise you'll have fun even if you kinda zoned out during most of these movies (don't worry — so did Fran!)

Plus, a proper elegy for the high femme & fabulous era of everyone's favorite anthropomorphized candy created for the imperialist US military. And this week in TV, Fran & Rose mourn and celebrate the inception of Miranda's villain era, travel back in time to revisit Tyra's emotional terrorism on ANTM and travel ALL the way back to pre-douching times for subtle gay stuff in the new period drama The Gilded Age.
