This episode contains spoilers for Episodes 1 and 2 of X-Men '97 Season 2. I was lucky enough to attend the world premiere of X-Men '97 Season 2 at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 13th. As addressed at the beginning of the episode, Karen, unfortunately, wasn't able to make it to the premiere as planned. Please enjoy Karen's reaction to my retelling of the first two episodes of X-Men '97 Season 2.

In What Now, Babe?'s shortest episode yet, Karen and I discuss the official Season 2 trailer for X-Men '97. As I mentioned at the top of the episode, this was originally part of the final part of our Season 1 retrospective. I hope you all enjoy this bonus episode!

After a month-long journey, Karen and I have made it to the end of our X-Men '97 Season 1 retrospective. As mentioned at the beginning, this episode ends a bit abruptly since our conversation about the season 2 trailer is now going to be a separate bonus episode. Enjoy!

What was once meant to be a three-part series is now a four-part series! In this episode, Karen and I discuss Episodes 6-8 of X-Men '97 Season 1. As I mentioned in the intro, we discuss heavier topics such as the current state of the world and grief. It is impossible to discuss this series, especially these episodes, without talking about real life. Regarding the end of our Episode 6 discussion, it's not explicitly said, but the last thing we discussed there was the scene with Sinister and Trask. Lastly, I know this is a long episode. I had almost three hours of footage to go through from multiple recording sessions. It's a long conversation, but we wanted to give these episodes the time they deserved. If you stick around till the end, I appreciate you. I hope you all enjoy this episode!

Remember it? How could we forget it? Episode 5 of X-Men '97 needed its own episode. If you know, you know. And if you don't, you will by the end of this episode. This is part two of three of my retrospective of X-Men '97 Season 1, featuring, yet again, my good friend: Karen Santora. Enjoy us sharing one brain cell!

To kick off this podcast, I wanted to start with one of my favorite shows: X-Men '97. This is the first of three episodes covering the first season. I'm joined by one of my good friends: Karen Santora. We became friends because of this show, but specifically because of our love for Rogue and Gambit. Enjoy!
