The Whole McCoy
Host Jason Snell with Merlin Mann, Cicero Holmes, Moisés Chiullán, Monty Ashley, Quinn Rose, and Dan Moren
Jason’s commitment to drafting things as a lifestyle continues in this episode, in which he’s joined by six panelists to draft X-Men from across movies, TV, and comics. The goal is to form a four-person X-Team, complete with names. Along the way we learn a lot about childhood loves, softball, vampires, the basics of German, and how the coolest and worst X-Men can co-exist.
