Gather round, children. It's story time this week on X-Boyz. Jubilee's trapped in a cave with some young students and decides to cook up a fantasy tale where she's the main hero for a change. Wolverine's a Troll-verine, Xavier's still problematic, and Gambit's voice sounds real dumb. It's wacky. It's goofy. And we've got special guest Keith Tripler here to help us break it all down. Some might say Jubilee isn't ready to carry her own episode. But we think our young lady has always been ready...

Qué tal? Do you needa fajita? Because The Boyz are here to serve up a piping hot dish. This week they're covering Season 5 Episode 5 The Fifth Horseman (That's a lot of fives!). Beast starts a side hustle as an archaeologist who uncovers a plot to revive Apocalypse. Fabian Cortez makes his obnoxiously loud return. And when the episode is as rough as Jubilee's Spanish, The Boyz are gonna need all the help they can get. With the help of special guest Hunter Delaney, join the party as they cover...

Do you like your lettuce hot? Did you know the ground beef from Taco Bell is served out of a meat hose? Do you support A-list actors kissing in movies? The Boyz (and Girlz) are here to discuss a whole lot (and a little about X-Men too). Join as they cover Storm Front parts 1 and 2 featuring an intergalactic Hunk who arrives on earth begging Storm to save his home world and marry him while she's at it. Storm falls for the wrong guy and Wolverine ain't having it. And neither is our special...

IT'S SEASON FIVE! THE BOYZ ARE ALIVE! And they've got a whole lot of mutant mania to cover. Join Henry, Andrew, and John as they give their long-awaited Deadpool & Wolverine reactions before covering the fantastic two-part season five opener: The Phalanx Covenant. When the earth is on the verge of extinction from a techno organic alien entity that seeks to assimilate all mutants and humans alike, there's only one X-Man that can save us: our beloved Beast. And he's got a new best friend...

It's the Season 4 (crunch)wrap-up and The Boyz are serving it to you Dumb Ass Style. That's right - we discuss Chipotle, Snowpiercer, WNBA and occasionally season 4 of X-Men the Animated Series.

The Boyz wrap up the biggest, boldest season of XMTAS with Beyond Good and Evil pts. 3 and 4. You know who else is big and bold? Cable's son Tyler. There's wall-to-wall action, betrayals-on-betrayals and villain/hero team-ups where you'd least expect them. Beast punches a horse. Bishop and Cable shoot their guns a lot. And story producer Eric Lewald beats himself up for not getting to write the episode he planned for. (Stick around to hear what the ending would've looked like if this had been...

Join the (nasty) Boyz as they take you for a ride through parts 1 and 2 of Beyond Good and Evil, the Season 4 finale that was nearly the series finale. These suckers are action-packed popcorn thrillers with all our favorite villains coming out to play. And there's time travel so you know Bishop and Cable are tagging in. Not to mention fan-favorite Psylocke makes her long-awaited debut. This Apocalypse arc is certain to be a primer for X-Men '97 season 2, so you don't want to miss it. And come...

It's a very merry Morlock Christmas and the boyz are here to sing carols, open presents (at gunpoint), and spice up your bland hams. Wolverine's a scrooge. Ape's a table. Jubilee's an emotional wreck. And at long last Storm has to answer for her failure to serve as leader of our favorite sewer-dwelling mutants. So settle in with some warm cookies and a nice glass of orange juice. You might just discover the true meaning of Christmas: that ho ho home is wherever your family is. Stay tuned for...

If you thought that '97 didn't feature enough of our beloved Logan, then do we have a treat for you. Two back-to-back Wolvy episodes (recorded before X-Men '97 started) with brand new lovers and old flames. And a professor far more diabolical than Xavier. Most importantly, we'll at long last get to the bottom of the "Sabretruth" debate. And in an X-Boyz first, we're calling out an error in the order of episodes. If you're watching along, the correct chronological order is Weapon...

Oh, you thought the show was over? Well, technically it is. For now. But the X-party rages on in our hearts and telepathic minds. So the Boyz (and a very special LADY guest) got together one more time to discuss the entirety of a season that, against-all-odds, exceeded our expectations. From the soapy romances to the most action-packed fights, we're covering it all. And stick around for our final X-Men Power Rankings to see who reigns (crunch-wrap) supreme going into Season 2. --- Support...

Join the Boyz as they cap off the ferocious finale of X-Men '97 Season 1. Did they manage to stick the Blackbird landing? Or was it as rocky as a flaming Asteroid M? Either way it's a miracle of a show that rose from the ashes of the past like a Pheen dream. And we can't wait for more. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/xboyzpod/support

Oh me, oh my! You've seen X-Men survive strange evil islands. You've seen them go to war in space. But what if they did both at the same time?! The boyz are serving up a double dose of our heroes' greatest villains with jaw-dropping battles that'll really rattle your bones. The fate of the world hangs in the balance. So listen up or you'll make Morph angry. And you wouldn't like Morph when they're angry... --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/xboyzpod/support

Oh my stars and garters! We've seen the X-Men face off against their fair share of humans and sentinels; but what happens when they take on both at once? Big bad boy Bastion has weaponized humanity and there's only one mutant who can disarm these super-charged fiends -- unfortunately, he's tied up at the moment. Join the Boyz as they take an action-packed family trip with the Summers gang. Destination? The Danger Zone. --- Support this podcast:...

ROGUE'S GONE ROGUE. And she's thirsty for revenge in the wake of her beloved Gambit's demise. Others are still picking up the pieces in the aftermath of the Genoshan massacre. And the Boyz? Well we're here to wipe your tears and provide answers to burning hot questions like -- who exactly is this Bastion guy who's even more sininster-er than Sinister? Why do prisons suck at holding villains in this show? Did we need MCU cameos? Will Roberto finally get out of last place in the power rankings?...

Class is in session. Face your inner demons and join the Boyz as they do what they do best and make fun of Xavier for using obnoxious words like "jingoism" while bragging about how many books he's read. What? He's alive again! That means it's fair game to poke a little fun at the pompous Professor. It's a spelunking good time that'll make your head spin like an evil owl. Is this episode as good as "Remember It?" Absolutely not. Nothing is. But we're still gonna have fun together. Because...

Take a trip back to Genosha, they said. Everything is peaceful there now, they said. Mutants will be fine, they said. WELL THEY LIED AND WE CRIED. Shed some tears with the Boyz for a top tier episode that features all the core tenets of the X-Men -- secret pasts, broken hearts, pulse-pounding action, tragic sacrifices made in the face of brutal intolerance. And Sydney (added by Henry). Did we mention it's the spiciest batch of Gambit gumbo to date? The kind that makes your eyes water....

WE GOT OUR MOJO BACK. Everyone’s favorite interdimensional megalomaniac ratings fiend has returned to torment Jubilee yet again. And this time he’s crashing her 18th birthday. Join the Boyz as we dissect a video game-themed episode that serves up a heavy dose of nostalgia with tons of nods to the 90s and the original series. And stick around for our coverage of Lifedeath pt. 1 where we discuss Storm's powerless dilemma, Forge's Papa’s Famous Bison Chili, a sudden steamy romance, and a...

Join the Boyz (and Rob!!) as they discuss the thrilling third episode of X Men ‘97 “Fire Made Flesh” where two Jeans are scarier than one. All hail the majesty of Mean Jean The Goblin Queen, who turns the X-mansion into a nightmare hellscape while under the control of a “Sinister” presence from the X-Men’s past. And a power-less Storm forges a new friendship with an old friend of Xavier’s. If your memory’s as jumbled as a freshly baked Jean clone, have no fear. We’ve got you covered on direct...

X-Boyz and Girlz, it's the moment you've all been waiting for. X-Men '97 has arrived and we're thrilled to report that it's bringing more heat than a Phoenix firestorm. Join us as we celebrate the mega two-part episode return of our old faithful friends who are back to take on some familiar foes (Gyrich, Trask, and the Sentinels) and some new threats to mutant-kind (X-Cutioner).  The Professor's out of the picture and Magneto's running the show. Jean and Scott contemplate leaving the X-Men...

The name's Crawler. Nightcrawler. And his mission is to infiltrate the heavily guarded chemical warfare facility at an F.O.H. dam in the US of A. Team commander on this assignment is "Wolverine" with additional support from rookie field agent Jubilation Lee codenamed "Jubilee." Be on the lookout for human rights extremist Graydon Creed. Intel says he's resurfaced with a vengeance. Operation "Mystique" is a go. But only if you choose to accept. Boyz out.  --- Support this podcast:...

Behold! Magnus makes his triumphant return! When Quicksilver and his sister Scarlet Witch learn they’re adopted, they soon discover that Magneto, currently on a quest to find a long lost love, may just hold a clue to their past. And they’re not the only heavy hitters featured in this ep — a Guardians of the Galaxy alum also makes an appearance. It’s got Wolvy. It’s got Beast. What else do you need? It’s X Boyz time. This is, Family Ties. --- Support this podcast:...

With great power comes great liability. Especially when you're a reality-shifting, body-snatching, energy-sapping teenager who's never seen the outside world. That's Kevin aka PROTEUS, a mutant who escapes from the research lab of the woman who puts the "ex" in Professor X -- Moira McTaggert. It's up to Xavier and the squad to help her track down this dangerous mutant (and the X-Boyz to analyze a two-part episode that probably should've just been one-parter). Stick around after our re-cap...

For a long time, the boyz have asked the question, what would the world be like without Xavier? Well, this week’s mega two-parter explores a dark future where the Professor isn’t around to fight for mutant rights. A timeline where Magneto has a beard and Beast hates literature. A place where Wolverine and Storm are… in love?! This sounds like a job for Bishop. And back, of course, along with him, is our beloved space/time continuum expert Rob Fonda. Join as we dive into a rare episode arc...

The title says it all: NIGHTCRAWLER IS HERE. Wolverine, Gambit, and Rogue's ski vacation turns into a demon-hunting quest when local villagers claim a devilish blue boy is creeping around their holy town. But is he truly a villain? Or is their prejudice the real evil? Does Nightcrawler's teleportation cloud leave behind a stench? This and more, only on X-Boyz. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/xboyzpod/support
