Zach & Tavie return to the world of Tony Stark and his suits of armor in their very first sequel, Iron Man 2! We get a recast Rhodey in Don Cheadle, more Nick Fury and world-building in the lead-up to The Avengers, a Beetlejuice Beetlejuice connection, Walt Disney vibes before Marvel was even owned by Disney, Garry Schandling, childhood cartoon reminiscing, and cameos-a-plenty from real world figures, including an unfortunate one that didn’t age so well (and could maybe use a disclaimer, in today’s media landscape?).

We also address questions such as “Has Tony slipped into his old ways a bit?”, “What’s the difference between a cockatoo and a cockatiel?”, “How much effort was put into establishing Black Widow’s cover story for her undercover identity?”, “How many ancient languages can you think of?”, “What’s one of the perks of being a director with a role in the film and a sexy lady co-star?”, “Should fan theories really be validated?”, and “What exactly was Tony doing up there before making his superhero landing entrance at the Expo?”.

All of this plus SPOT THE STAN, MARVEL TRIVIA, PENNY’S CORNER, and SO MUCH MORE! Join us on our continued journey, exploring the MCU from the beginning, once again experiencing the charisma of Robert Downey Jr. in this second solo entry to the whole greater mega-franchise
