After the Credits

Podcast X, AKA The Chunk Squad, reviled and cast away, utterly expendable, the YumChunks. Assembled to pull off a job no one else can. In this episode of After the Credits, the guys go off mission with Nintendo trivia and history, rank some recent lower profile films, and dive deep into ravioli. And finally, when everything's on the line, they lay it all out there for the new DCEU feature, James Gunn's The Suicide Squad. Does this low-key reboot-sequel find the perfect balance of wackiness, humor, and heart, or was it doomed from the start? If the Chunksquad can't make this work, then, well, whatever. They can be replaced. 

Please find a seat and our cast will begin shortly. Keep all listening devices on at all times. YumChunks is not responsible for any injury, psychological damage, or drownings sustained during our After the Credits tour. On the lefthand side of the cast you'll hear about the Black Mesa Half-Life remake. Careful though, it's prone to decay. Coming up on the right, we have recounts of The Beauty and The Beast live musical. Legends say it's a tale as old as time. Oh, we just passed talk of the Great Ace Attorney video games. It's a good thing though, it has a habit of objecting to our tour. And straight ahead of us, the jewel of the cast, the film adaptation of the Disney theme park attraction, The Jungle Cruise. Does it capture the silly humor and vibe of the park ride and still tell a fun charming adventure story? Luckily for you, you're stuck on this tour for another hour and forty minutes and are about to find out. There will be listener emails at the end of the cast, so hold all questions forever, and don't be afraid to tip your Chunkguides. They will bite.

The YumChunks corporation presents the most advanced podcast listening algorithm available. Using space age data collection and optimization, we have been able to pinpoint the exact podcast to fit your entertainment needs: After the Credits. We've tracked all of your personal metadata to determine highly curated topics like: the Yesterday's Enterprise episode of Star Trek TNG, repeatedly revisiting our Loki episode, the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics, and why Sonic must remain in 2D. But our ability to really understand the needs of our audience is on full display when we have a meandering, schizophrenic, angry conversation about Space Jam: A New Legacy that includes lengthy tangents into the facets of hero worship, the nature of acceptable quality in art, and pointless nostalgia obession. In maybe our longest episode yet, we get loose and looney and... on second thought, you should probably just avoid this episode altogether. As a cutting edge algorithm, we can't recommend it. If you insist on listening, please send complaints to [email protected]. Don't say we didn't warn ya!

Welcome to the PVN (Podcast Variance Network)! If you're here, it means you have stumbled across a variant podcast. This podcast may have been created as a fluke, a joke, maybe a couple of guys had too much time on their hands and felt the need to have their dumb opinions about movies and TV be heard, whatever the case, this podcast is not part of the Sacred Podcast Network and needs to be pruned. You can do your part by making sure not to listen to any variant casts, like After the Credits. Definitely don't listen as they talk about popcorn, wheelhouses, or read listener emails. And if you listen to their discussion of the latest Marvel series, Loki, a Nexus event may occur and throw all networks out of whack. Does any of this make sense, does any of LOKI make sense? Unfortunately, the only way to find out is to press play, and by doing that you forfeit control of your mind and are subject to the law of the Chunk Keepers. So remember, help keep the Sacred Network right, do your part, and if you hear a variant cast, inform anyone and everyone around you! 

Trained from childhood to be the best, the most lethal, the most covert podcasters in the world; YumChunks exists in the corners of the internet, silently manipulating the powers that be. They are born from the Chunk Room. But can they be redeemed, can they break free from their bonds, the only world they've ever known, to become After the Credits? Only by coming together as a family: Ryan's caped crusade against The Tomorrow War, Sean's unapologetic acceptance of Zelda: Skyward Sword, and Matt's descent into non-stop theatre work, can they ever hope to survive? And ever hope to discuss the long awaited return to film for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Black Widow. Does the action spy character backstory deliver, or is it too late? You'll have to listen in and hold your breath to find out. Plus a new theme song! There so much here you may have to defect!

And look out for our Loki episode releasing soon! The Summer hits keep on coming!

Sync up while we test the audio
Hey y'all, Welcome to another episode!

In the Heights
So hit the play button and start the listen
There are stories
And endless debates
And opinions to state
On an episode this is what it's like,
Every recording, every session, every word is a fight
And no, not yet, we ain't sunk
Cause this is YumChunks!

The dog days of summer are here, and YumChunks are back from a lengthy hiatus. The boys have plenty to talk about around the Chunkfire this week as Ryan recounts a harrowing story of survival in the Hawaiian jungle, Chewie breaks down his sudden end of year stage productions, and Sean tells of adventures in Hollywood and Vegas. With the fire blazing, and an hour into the episode, they finally get down to the main dish, the live action adaptation of the animated Disney classic, Cruella. Is it just another in a long line of uninspired live action remakes of animated childhood favorites, or does this one break the mold and go bold? The guys dive into it all and more! And stay tuned for some fun listener emails!
