Check out Pop Break Today Feed of The Pop Break Podcast Network — on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts and Anchor.


Hello and welcome to Bill vs the MCU! Each month your hosts Pop Break Podcasts Editor Alex Marcus and Pop Break Editor in Chief Bill Bodkin take another step into the wider Marvel Multiverse, with reviews and interviews on the film and television series that may be drawn upon as the MCU dives deeper and deeper into its Multiverse Saga.

After completing their twelve month rewatch of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Alex and Bill are fully embracing the ethos of the MCU’s Multiverse Saga with miniseries devoted to all the MCU-adjacent material out there. Currently, the pair are taking a guided tour of the Netflix Defenders-verse, featuring reviews of select seasons of Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage, along with this universe’s crossover event The Defenders.

This month, Alex and Bill are continuing the multiversal phase of their podcast by checking in on 2015’s Jessica Jones Season 1. They praise Krysten Ritter’s star-making turn as the titular Jessica Jones and the insidiously evil performance by everyone’s favorite Doctor, David Tennant. They also debate the merits of the Will Simpson character and just who’s to blame for him sucking so hard, whether we needed to learn that much about Jeri Hogarth’s divorce, and which of Jessica’s days was the very worst day of them all.

They are also joined by special guest Tori Preston, Managing Editor of Pajiba.com and host of their TV Podcast Podjiba, to help understand the cultural context around the series when it first debuted, how well its emotional and sexual abuse storylines hold up post #MeToo, and what went wrong with those last two seasons of the series.

Alex and Bill also unveil their new monthly segment Miss Minutes Marvel Memo, where they try to cram in a month’s of MCU headlines in five minutes!

Don’t forget to come back next month when we’ll be reviewing Daredevil S2

Jessica Jones Season 1 and Daredevil Seasons 1-3 are available to stream on Disney+.
