How’s it going everybody. The podcast is back for 2026 and we are looking to have a great time! I start the episode by catching you up on what I’ve been up to then laying out what I’m looking forward to doing on the show this coming year. We then do our first PotD, Emperor Doom. I talk about the Lorcana event that I’ve been able to complete twice now, happening at EPCOT! Then the real show: we talk about WonderMan and I tell you my grade for the show! If you haven’t watched it yet, and mean to, please be careful, there may be some spoilers. But ultimately I lay it all out for you. It was a good time being back on and I can’t wait to bring you more… of the Murphy Street Podcast!

Happy New Year! I decided that for 2025, I wasn't going to be denied. Today we run throught episodes 3 through 6 of the Skeleton Crew. This was made necessary by the numerous attempts to drop podcasts that eventually turned in to 30 seconds of audio then the rest of it as dead air! So come with me as we marathon our way through these episodes and make up for the lost time on the Murphy Street Podcast!

Today we talk about the 3rd installment of the new Star Wars and Disney Plus show, Skeleton Crew. I bring all my optimism that this episode won't be as boring as the first two. Do they let me down or do they take us on an amazing adventure that renews my appreciation for the franchise and sparks my affection for this show in particular? Can I finally get on the same page with Rotten Tomatoes and the masses? Checking the temp on the Murphy Street Podcast

For todays episode, I was drawn to an article from CBR.Com that highlighted 10 female characters that they felt were written badly. And though there were some compelling arguments, I plucked the 5 that I thoguht would appeal to my audience the most. There were no Star Wars ladies (sorry) but there were DC and Marvel and the one that sparked my interest the most, the fifth Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle! What's that? You didn't know there was a fifth turtle? And a girl at that? Then allow me to share with you about yet another Renissance artist on this episode of the Murphy Street Podcast!

This episode, I was gonna talk about something really cool as part of the Advent style podcasting theme. But just when I was getting comfortable with that topic, something came to my attention that blew me so far back that I had to address it. And so we talked of the Skeleton Crew and their Rotten Tomatoes scores. Apparently they were amazing and both the critiques and the audiences scores match which meant I was wrong. But I refuse to believe that. So we suss out just what may have been the culprit of this anomaly. Ranting hard on this episode of the Murphy Street Podcast!
