Spider-Dan (of the Secret Bores)’s extra-long conversation with Mike about a huge array of things continues this week, including movies, comics, the MCU, Star Wars and Spider-Man and more, so definitely one for movie-buffs and nerds alike!

This week is part 2 and the duo’s discussion on superhero content/fatigue continues, which follows into discussing the entry-level for comic books, which includes a big discussion on Spider-Man (& Venom), cult classics, how the streaming era has changed movies, live-theatre, international movie licencing, Sony’s impact on home media and more!

Last week, in part 1, Dan & Mike start their conversation by Spider-Dan confirming where his name came from, why he started a podcast, his career in acting, they inevitably discuss before they delve into a massive discussion on the duo’s movie-love, which then goes into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, superhero movies & more!
