    We’ll be jumping into some sensitive themes here, including coconut-related ‘assault’. We’ll be talking about Jimmy’s life, Nancy Argentino, our beloved Rowdy Roddy Piper (Da Maniac) - and WWF’s complete failure in protecting women.

    Thanks to Irvin Muchnick’s investigative work on Nancy’s death, which helped shine a light on this upsetting case.

  • Worst X-Men Ever

    Worst X-Men Ever
    2026/03/13

    Oh my stars and garters, we’re talking about the worst X-Men mutants ever!


    In this episode we’re taking a lighter approach, as we discuss the lamest characters in X-Men history. You may be surprised by some opinions here, but Matt and Drew both managed a comic shop for years, so we’re technically correct.


    This is also your reminder to go read X-Statix already. Go support your local comic book store and pick up your damn pull list.
