After completing their twelve month rewatch of the Marvel

hero property since Wesley Snipes’ Blade Trilogy, they are joined
by ⁠Racial Draft⁠ podcaster and ⁠Murphy’s Multiverse⁠ writer
Michael T. Ford III.

monthly segment Miss Minutes Marvel Memo, where they try to cram
in a month’s of MCU headlines in five minutes, while also
