This week on the SpitTake Podcast, Adam, Alex, and Stef pay tribute to legendary actor Tim Curry by revisiting Clue, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, IT, and the unforgettable performances that made him a pop-culture icon.

The conversation then dives into Stef’s chaotic journey through the Marvel Cinematic Universe ahead of Avengers: Doomsday. The hosts debate the latest Fantastic Four, break down Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, praise the action in Shang-Chi, and attempt to explain the increasingly confusing phases of the MCU.

The episode takes a darker turn with Netflix’s Death of the Pastor’s Wife, the disturbing true-crime documentary about Mica Miller, her toxic marriage, and the unanswered questions surrounding her death. Adam and Alex also unpack HBO’s Lanterns, including the relationship between Hal Jordan and John Stewart, the Guardians’ questionable motives, and whether the series’ social commentary serves the story.

Plus, the crew debates Disney’s live-action remakes, gives Prometheus another chance, explores the tangled canon of the Alien franchise, looks ahead to Yellowjackets, American Horror Story, and the Lizzie Borden season of Monster—and somehow finds time for escape rooms, suburban nightlife, midlife crises, and the proper way to eat apple pie.

Expect spoilers, questionable opinions, dark humor, and enough pop-culture detours to get lost in the multiverse.
