Andrea has watched some X-Men 97. John's read some comics, played some Stellar Blade, and we've both seen two Sydney Sweeney movies. So, we've a lot to discuss and that's all before we continue our Shogun talk. Episodes 6 & 7 is where we're at and there will be spoilers. If you're also watching the show, please leave us your thoughts.
