The Thor-Verse: For Whom The Quim Mewls

Send us a text


Happy Wine Wednesday!

Special guest Samantha Adolfo joins us this week to discuss one
of our favorite himbos - Thor Odinson.  With the Loki series
on Disney Plus set to premiere soon, we thought it was a perfect
time to talk all things Asgard. 

We kick things off with sharing our love for the Thor films and
explain why people who only love Thor: Ragnarok are just
wrong.  We then poke fun at Mark Graham and his 2009 Vulture
article in which he questions the casting of Chris Hemsworth and
Tom Hiddleston as Thor and Loki.  We cannot imagine anyone
else in these roles! Somehow the discussion takes a brief thirst
detour in which Jocelyn very passionately defends the sex appeal
of Tom Hiddleston and shares some sage advice she received many
years ago that hasn't let her down to date. Jocelyn also defends
sexy men with chicken legs.  Apologies for the Chris mixup -
Jocelyn was upset about people teasing Chris Hemsworth for having
chicken legs - not Chris Evans.  *insert infinite face
palm*

Next, we get into our thoughts about the Thor films.  We
discuss how the first Thor film stacks up against the other
origin films, as well as how Thor: The Dark World does not quite
hold up when compared to the second films of Thor's fellow
Avengers.  We close out the discussion of the films with
Thor: Ragnarok and declare an official enemy of the pod. 
Listen to hear how a Vox writer ended up with this unfortunate
distinction.

We then get into all of our feelings about Thor's character
arc.  Sam perfectly explains why the God of Thunder is also
the God of our hearts.  It should come as no surprise that
we had a LOT of thoughts about how the Marvel writers handled
Thor's grief in Endgame.  No discussion about the Thor films
would be complete without discussing our favorite
trickster.  Loki has not had much character development thus
far, so we hope that his Disney Plus series will change
that.  We also chat about our wish list for Thor: Love and
Thunder.  Spoiler alert - one of us is really not feeling
Natalie Portman or her portrayal of Jane Foster.

The episode closes out with a really fun thirst segment.  We
learn just how perfectly meshed we are as friends when we share
the objects of our thirst from the Thor-verse.  Also,
low-rise jeans are a devil, unless they are on the body of a god!
And move over America's Ass, we declare the ass of the UNIVERSE
in this episode.  We also play a fun rapid fire game in
which Jocelyn shares the name of a character from the Thor-verse
and Sam and Kristine determine whether they are worthy.

After you're done listening, enjoy this montage of Tom Hiddleston
dancing.  Snake hips for the win! And enjoy Chris Hemsworth
taking a playful jab at those who questioned his casting.
