The Oh Gosh, Oh Golly, Oh Wow! Podcast
@goshgollywow.bsky.social
Because you demanded it... @annapeppard.bsky.social, @chrismaverick.bsky.social, @ClaremontRun.bsky.social + friends are podcasting about Excalibur (1988-98), every week for 126+ weeks.
In #Excalibur #125, "Tying the Knot," we’ve got a wedding we don’t love concluding a comic book series we do love… And in honor of this mess of mixed feelings - we’re holding an Irish Wake, celebrating the dearly deceased with friends new & old. #XMen

Unlike Kurt Wagner, we don't just wake up looking this dashing & debonair. In other words: we need more time to put together our mega-special finale. You'll be able to inject that into your ears next week - Feb 10. Stay Tuned!! #Excalibur #XMen #YouAreCordiallyInvited

New ep! Writer, critic & game designer Armaan Babu (@armaanofstories.bsky.social) helps us find the joy we’ve lost w/ #Excalibur #123, “Lost & Found,” talking timeless joys of Nightcrawler & why maybe it makes sense for a shapeshifter to want a wedding dress? #XMen

New ep! Returning guest Dr. Michael Hancock (@personofcon.bsky.social) reminisces about #Excalibur #122, "The Search, Part 1," which he bought off the rack when he was but an impressionable teen! Wonder what he'll make of it with a fully developed brain... #XMen

New ep! We’re back unpacking Larocca’s choices which can be weird but are certainly choices in Excalibur #110 “Hearts Bled Crimson” w/ superstar scholar Dr. Barbara Postema (@barpos.bsky.social)! Plus, our supersex addled brains go to town on Brian letting go. #XMen
