We’re longing for a little niceness over on the podcast this week. New Ben continues to take a toll on EastEnders, we speculate if Emmerdale has become a bit too focused on sexual assault stories, Corrie swirls with nastiness of varying levels and the depressing handling of Oscar Nero’s death on General Hospital was the cherry on the cake of snark.

We chat and laugh about it all this week on The Soapy Madams Podcast!

We did an episode of Varmints on llamas and alpacas you can find here: Llamas and Alpacas – Varmints – 95,

and we joined Paul Hawkins for an episode of BlokeBuster’s to discuss the movie Soap Dish! Find that here: Ep 110: Soapdish or: Wow, What A Cast!!

Our intro music is by Jahzzar, our bed music is by Kevin MacLeod and Bird Creek. They are all wonderful so go check them out!

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

One great comic book movie deserves another one for a follow-up, so David and Phil came right out of theaters and onto the mics to talk about the Amazing/Ultimate/Noir/Enter Your Own Adjective Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.  The guys talk about why this is a unique take on superhero movies and tropes, psychedelic animation styles, and… how great is Miles Morales, guys?

 

Teen Miles Morales becomes Spider-Man of his reality, crossing his path with five counterparts from other dimensions to stop a threat for all realities.
