Marvel's cabbAgents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (S1)


Charlotte and Laura have reached the first intimidating stop on their journey through the MCU: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. They discuss the adventures of Phil Coulson and his ragtag crew, their concerns about the series and how they changed upon viewing, how the TV series furthers the overall story arc, and more. Charlotte shares her struggle with connecting to the cold and distant Melinda May, while Laura finds her to be a badass. Laura compares the villain, John Garrett to a character from The Office, and Charlotte explains why he's good at being a bad guy. Together they champion the show's science twin duo FitzSimmons, call out repetitive plot devices, muddle through the more mundane MCU goings-on, and share some hopes for the future storylines of the show. Was Agent Phil Coulson a ladies man in his past? Does the show's Law and Order type procedural style help connect the dots between bigger MCU events? And do Charlotte and Laura find any affection for this show? You'll have to listen to find out!

For the Fun & Games segment, the girls find out their Agent Names and play a round of 1, 2, 3, S/He's Yours! Play along with Charlotte and Laura during the episode and share your agent name or your soul mate pick in the comments of this post!
