We kick off our Spider-Man: Brand New Day coverage by taking a look back at how we reacted to our first theater experience for No Way Home (which currently sits inside our MCU top 10).

Our journey has led us all the way to Spider-Man: No Way Home, and we have finally made it! After seeing the film a bit early, we sat down and recorded almost two hours of our initial reactions. And man, what a blast it was. Do not listen to this episode until you have seen the movie. But once you have seen it, let's chat!
