59 min - Episode 66 | Eternals
"Are you sure you want to do that, Mr Whitman?"
Marvel's Eternals have finally made their appearance in the massive Marvel Cinematic Universe. Robert, Jordan, and Joe ventured out to their theaters to check it out, and in the 66th episode of Pop Kannon, the guys spill their guts about the 7,000 years the Eternals spent on Earth.In this episode, we dig into the diverse cast and complex characters, including the relationship between Sersi & Ikaris. We ponder whether or not this movie fits in with the rest of the MCU, if the humor was effective, and we debate if it was a good idea or not to reference DC Comics characters. We also comment on the mid and post-credits scenes, and theorize about the future (and past) of the Marvel Cinematic Universe!We are also available via VIDEO on YouTube!Head to our LinkTree to subscribe! https://linktr.ee/PopKannon

50 min - Episode 63 | The Sopranos - S1E1
"So what? No fuckin' ziti now?" With the release of the prequel film "The Many Saints of Newark: A Sopranos Story" upon us, we decided now would be the best time to go all the way back to the year 1999 and continue our S1E1 series with THE SOPRANOS. Join us as Robert, Jordan and Sarah discuss the massively successful HBO original series written and directed by creator David Chase.
Jordan and Sarah give their first impressions of seeing the show, while Robert reflects on his first exposure to it and how his opinion has evolved after seeing the show through twice. We break down the character of Tony Soprano and talk about the way the show treats anxiety and depression. We discuss the decision to try to ground the show in reality by highlighting the relationships between Tony and his immediate family, praise some of the filmmaking techniques used, and if the pilot episode was enough to sell us on the series! All this AND MORE in another special S1E1 episode of Pop Kannon!
