Ken and Jordan are back on The Paradise Podcast with a spoiler-ish review of Disney+'s Wonder Man — and it kicks off with a quick reset on what this show is really about: finding your "paradise" through nostalgia, passion, and the stories that keep you grounded.

From there, they break down why Wonder Man works (and why it's going to frustrate people who only show up for 'splosions): the slow-burn reveal of Simon Williams, the peek behind the curtain of struggling-actor life, and a surprisingly solid commitment to character-first storytelling. They dig into Simon's "finicky artist" energy, the choice to drop all eight short episodes at once, and Jordan's take that the whole thing almost plays better as a single movie.

They also hit the most polarizing detour (Doorman) and why it sticks out, the family episode (Pacoima) and how it reframes Simon, plus the Trevor Slattery angle — including how the show somehow makes Trevor… kind of work. Toward the end, Ken gets personal about the moments that hit harder than expected, and why stories tied to fathers, legacy, and purpose land differently when you're carrying real-life grief.

Final verdict: not a must-watch for everyone — but if you want Marvel doing something different, this one earns your attention.
