We are in a great spot to go over all the plot holes and loose threads from the MCU! There are a bunch, but we are professionals! We only argue about time travel for a little bit. Join us as we talk about where the MCU is going and where it isn’t!

Jay’s 

Where did the ten rings come from? What's up with Justin Hammer from Iron Man 2? Is Wanda Maximoff a Mutant or not? The third personality in Moon Knight. Steve Rodgers at the end of Endgame. Hulk's son at the end of She-Hulk. Dr. Strange and his third eye, and also Charlize Theron. Where are the Eternals and what is up with the Black Knight. Is Kingpin dead or what at the end of Hawkeye? (Duh!) Where is Kang at the end of Ant-Man 3? What is Starlord doing? What is America Chavez doing? 

Mike’s

Where did Wong take Shang-Chi? What’s up with Eros / Starfox? That freaking marble celestial in the middle of the ocean. Wasn’t there a thing about Stark tech being stolen in a movie? How did Yelena Belova get mixed up with Kate Bishop’s mom and why is she going to be in the Thunderbolts instead of the new Avengers? Peter Parker. Hercules shows up at the end of Love and Thunder. What’s up with him? Does he really go after Thor or do they cut that dumb idea off? Little T’challa. Namor. Just chilling underwater these days? White Vision! You’d think he stands out.  Will we ever see Moon Knight again? What about Loki and the TVA? Let’s talk about where Ms. Marvel & Hawkeye go from here.

Zaniac and Brad Wolfe is also from the comics! And it is weird! But, this is cool because the comic book story has original ties to Thor and the TVA!
