This week, we’re thrilled to have Tiffani Angus, writer and half of the dynamic duo behind Spec Fic For Newbies, joining us as we plunge into the colorful world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Together, we’ll discuss the growing superhero fatigue, reflect on the MCU’s heyday, and unravel how the unexpected directorial choices of James Gunn and Taika Waititi played a key role in shaping the Marvel comedy/action formula we know today.
