Hello and welcome to Pop Break TV’s brand new sometimes podcast: Saturday Morning Adventures, where contributors to ThePopBreak.com and their friends kick back, tune in, and zone out to the kids cartoons that defined their childhoods and the ones that are still giving them life today.
For the next ten weeks, this podcast will be led by Pop Break Podcasting Director Alex Marcus and K Anderson, the host of the wonderful interview podcast Lost Spaces, as they give you instant reactions to every episode of X-Men ’97, the Disney Plus revival of the beloved 1992 classic X-Men: The Animated Series.
This week, Alex & K explore their favorite moments and characters from X-Men 97 Season 1, discussing the Disney+ ‘Making Of’ special (Assembled: The Making of X-Men ’97), action scenes, supporting characters, and toxic romances. They share their hopes for season two and reflect on their recapping journey.
The episode concludes with teasers for future podcast content on Star Wars: The Bad Batch and Bluey, and updates on their other projects including ‘Lost Spaces,’ ‘TV Break,’ and ‘Bill vs MCU.’
