And another Westside Card Show is in the books and boy was it a doozie! We start this weeks podcast by talking about what an amazing weekend it was in Kapolei. With over 70+ vendors, and THOUSANDS of Pokemon enthusiasts descending upon the Kroc Center, we had a time! We got to see some amazing cards, watch some amazing deals and best of all, we got to do all of this while bringing the best out of our Pokemon community and just celebrating each other. It was an AMAZING weekend to say the least.
Then, Pokemon dropped images of some of their cards for the upcoming 30th anniversary sets and they are just *chefs kiss*! Not to mention the new FUTURISTIC rarity reveals! They’re about to set the world on fire with these! So let’s talk in the calm before the storm, on the Murphy Street Podcast!

While in Atlanta, with the crew filming the new Superman movie right outside my window, I talk to you about a great many things. I announce that I’ll be emceeing the West Side Card Show, which I’m really excited to be a part of! I tie up a loose end from last episode. Here’s a secret: it’s about Gambit! Then we go over the PoTD, which was the PS5 Wolverine game, before discussing Wemby geeking out on Lego with his first league check and finally wrapping up with my take on Spiderman Noir! Yes… that may have been a run on sentence, but if you listen to my podcasts then you know I ramble and your used to it, if not already expecting it. But I hope you take some time to listen to my thoughts and even better, take some time to share yours with me! Always lending you my ear, on the Murphy Street Podcast!

After explaining how much I enjoy the brown and yellow, live action Wolverine Marvel Legends figure for Piece of The Day, we run full speed in to the breakdown of the XMen Season 2 trailer! So many good things! A lot of new faces, but not unfamiliar ones! And of not one, but two BIG BADS! But mainly, Apocalypse. There’s so much to go thru so we better get going on this episode of the Murphy Street Podcast!

Today was the opening day for the long awaited Mandalorian and Grogu movie. This is the FIRST Star Wars, big screen movie in 7 years!

Today we begin our trek of life after Maul Shadow Lord. But I let you down slowly by discussing something relating to Maul. Can you think of 5 Sith Lords that are stronger than Lord Maul? As we saw, Vader makes a strong bid for that list, but who else is next? Take a listen and see if any of the ones we talk about are the ones you guessed. I will say, at least one is probably NOT one that you would’ve thought about.

The end is finally upon us! The last two chapters of Maul Shadow Lord dropped on May the 4th and MAN!!! What a way to kick off Star Wars day! We get to see the fight between, Maul, Daki and Devon versus the Inquisitors find a conclusion. And then… as if Dave was listening to my hopes and dreams (and those of the fan base) chapter 9 ended with the Dark Lord of the Sith himself! Chapter 10 is just a jump off from the jump off! And the show comes to an AMAZING and flawless ending. But I know what you’re all wondering… Does Daki Die? Find out on this scintillating reaction show on the Murphy Street Podcast!

Happy May the 4th! Today, I get Bronson back and we celebrate May the 4th like only we can! We start off by unboxing and breaking into the Mando Meal from Burger King! It was A LOT! We both share a PoTD and I share about how you can win the one that I bought FOR FREE! Then we pour over an article from CBR that I’ve been waiting to jump into about WHY Maul Shadow Lord is done so much BETTER than the Book of Boba Fett! An article that really acted more like a moment of self reflection for me as a Star Wars fan. And lastly we talk about the feedback we’ve gotten and our thoughts of the transformation of Batuu at Galaxys Edge in Disneyland, now being rethemed to match the Original Trilogy. And just to tell you… we think it’s a good thing for so many reasons! But all in all, it was great to celebrate Star Wars again, with my guy, one of the original guys from the Murphy Street Podcast!

As we near the ending of this season of Maul Shadow Lord, you can’t help but wonder if these episodes might fall flat somewhere. Allow me to assure you… they did not!
Our Piece of The Day was the Hot Tub Stormtrooper Lego Mini fig that was gifted me by my friend Ray! He’s a real one for that! As far as the chapters, Chapter 7 was an A and so was Chapter 8! To sum up, Maul and Rylee escape with Maul, Rylee gets captured by the empire, Maul and Devon fight, Spybot rocks! 2Boots is an idiot! Brander and Daki need to figure things out. THE 11TH BROTHER! Maul fights inquisitors. Dark Tree Cave vibes. Etc… listen in and I’ll fill in the blanks and the rest on the Murphy Street Podcast!

First off, I apologize. I had to go early because I couldn’t resist. I’m not sure if I can always drop them on Monday’s but Wednesdays were just getting too far away! So we dropped the episode today. Today’s Piece of The Day was the Black Series Savage Oppress! Brother of Darth Maul (I don’t think I said that in the episode. Probably should have. My miss🤦🏾‍♂️). But today’s convo talked about Chapters 5 and 6 and luckily one carried the weight for the other. Episode 6 was definitely, FOR ME, the better of the two! We got to see some really cool things over these two episodes though, including Marrok and maybe Devon getting a step closer to becoming Darth Talon (lol). Either way, listed to my reactions to all that we saw on this episode of the Murphy Street Podcast!

Today’s episode opens up with a Piece of The Day FIRST! We talk about the Black Series figures for Maul Shadow Lord and what I think of them. Then we go straight in to my reactions to Chapters 3 and 4. I don’t want to give away too much, but I will say this… the action is ACTIONING! I also make another hasty prediction, that seems to be wrong once again… or was it? And we see so many impact points where many different conflicts that we’ve been watching develop and waiting for, finally converge. It feels like the shadows are beginning to recede and the more Maul is starting to come in to the light. So bask in this illumination with me on this episode of the Murphy Street Podcast!
