A huge movie warrants an equally huge discussion, so buckle up as we bring you Episode #6 of "Discovering the MCU", where we analyze the action-packed sixth film in the MCU franchise (and the final movie in Phase One), "The Avengers"!  In this episode, Pat has a real hard time buying into a certain Avenger and drops multiple more Star Wars references, while Bryan tells us as noobs what's important and what isn't, as we come to find out there's a lot more going on with this movie than you think!   Hosts Bryan Shirley and Pat Moriarty are a devoted acolyte and newbie to the MCU respectively. Come along with us as we explore every installment of the MCU from these two contrasting viewpoints. Whether you've just discovered the MCU and want to see what it's all about or whether you are already all in and just need new content, we've got the podcast for you!   MUSIC graciously provided by our good friend Blamsiss, check out this track & more of his incredible multi-instrumental talent at blamsiss.bandcamp.com!   Originally Recorded on 9/24/21. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
