Snark Squad Pod

We often gush about how much we love our favorite fictional siblings, so this week we are joined by Tobin Addington of the wonderful podcast The Contenders (which he co-hosts with his sister) to talk about some of our favorite (and least favorite) fictional siblings.Find us all on Twitter:Nick: twitter.com/tobinaddingtonNicole: twitter.com/sweeneysaysMarines: twitter.com/mynameismarinestwitter.com/snark_squadwww.snarksquad.comhttp://www.patreon.com/snarksquad

Superheroes! Origin stories! Questionable dialogue! After watching the Thor movies a few weeks ago, we decided to make our way through the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, but we're going to go in order, rather than by superhero. This week we're starting with Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor, Captain America: The First Avenger, and The Avengers. We are joined on this journey through the MCU by our friends Nick Jenkins and Rich Camillucci and this episode is also a crossover with Reel Bad Pod.Find us all on Twitter:Nick: twitter.com/ngjenkinsRich: twitter.com/RichCamiNicole: twitter.com/sweeneysaysMarines: twitter.com/mynameismarinestwitter.com/snark_squadwww.snarksquad.com

We have reached the midpoint in our journey through George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, book 3. (The mid point of the published novel, at least). For this trip through Westeros and across the narrow sea we are joined again by our dear friend Sam (Democracy Diva) as we relive all! the! big! moments! from the red wedding to Oberyn Martell's arrival in King Landing. We also spend a lot of time fangirling over one particular character that the show never introduced.Support the show on Patreon:http://www.patreon.com/snarksquadFind us all on Twitter:Sam: twitter.com/democracydivaNicole: twitter.com/sweeneysaysMarines: twitter.com/mynameismarinestwitter.com/snark_squadwww.snarksquad.com

We've brought our friend Rich back to discuss 2018's film adaptation of Jeff VanderMeer's novel of the same name, Annihilation. The movie is atmospheric, features a fantastic cast, and is...weird. This week's episode is a bit of a journey, much like the film itself, as we try to figure out how exactly we feel about this move.Find us all on Twitter:Rich: twitter.com/RichCamiNicole: twitter.com/sweeneysaysMarines: twitter.com/mynameismarinestwitter.com/snark_squadwww.snarksquad.com

As we talk about beloved properties old and new, something lurking around the edges of our conversations has been a question of fan identity. When do you call yourself a fan? How do you exhibit fannish behavior? This week we're rehashing a 3 year old Snark Lady debate with the help of our very wise friend Ceri Riley.Find us all on Twitter:Ceri: twitter.com/cerileyNicole: twitter.com/sweeneysaysMarines: twitter.com/mynameismarinestwitter.com/snark_squadwww.snarksquad.com
