With a slew of Marvel Studios productions coming to Disney+ over the next six months, The Escapist has launched a weekly show discussing these series. I’ll be joining the wonderful Jack Packard and the fantastic KC Nwosu to break down WandaVision, Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Loki as they come out.
The plan if for the weekly episodes to launch on Saturday, but our first episode is launching today looking at the first two episodes of WandaVision. We talk about expectations, about continuity, and about what it means for the Marvel Cinematic Universe to come to television.
The Escapist have launched a movie podcast, and I was thrilled to join Jack Packard and KC Nwosu for the second episode of the year. We talked about the upcoming Rubik’s Cube shared universe, the release of Disney Pixar’s Soul, and the season finale of The Mandalorian.
The Escapist have launched a movie podcast, and I was thrilled to join Jack Packard for a special Christmas episode, and our last episode of the year. The idea developed once it became clear that Jack and I were separately looking at this concept from two very different angles. So we decided to tackle the big question: is Die Hard a Christmas movie?
The Escapist have launched a movie podcast, and I was thrilled to join Jack Packard and Maggie Iken for the fifteenth episode. Obviously, the big news is the fallout from the announcement that Warner Brothers would be sending all of its films next year to HBO Max, but we also dig into two horror movies – the recent Freaky and the seasonal Krampus.
The Escapist have launched a movie podcast, and I was thrilled to join Jack Packard and KC Nwosu for the twelfth episode.

The Escapist have launched a movie podcast, and I was thrilled to join Jack Packard for the tenth episode.

Jordan making his directorial debut with Creed III.
The Escapist have launched a movie podcast, and I was thrilled to join Jack Packard for the ninth episode. It was a light enough week for film news, so we talked about Disney’s new content warnings on some its older and more dated classics, the announcement that there was a Willow television series coming, and discussed the latest version of The Witches.
The Escapist have launched a movie podcast, and I was thrilled to join Jack Packard and Bob Chipman for the sixth episode. Because it was a slow week for film news, and because this is officially October, we decided that we’d take the chance to look at three horror movies that are perhaps under-appreciated and well worth your time: Jeff Barnaby’s Blood Quantum (2020), John Carpenter’s In the Mouth of Madness (1995) and Steve Miner’s House (1986).
The Escapist have launched a movie podcast, and I was thrilled to join Jack Packard and Bob Chipman for the first episode, a discussion of all things DC Fandome.
It was a packed schedule, with new footage from Wonder Woman, The Snyder Cut and The Batman, along with behind-the-scenes peaks at The Suicide Squad and a tease of what Dwayne Johnson has lined up for Black Adam. As one might expect from the DC Extended Universe, the output varied dramatically in terms of both content and tone. There was a lot to unpack.
