July 7th: Spider-Man is unmasked to the world and accused of murdering Mysterio. That evening, Sam Wilson debuts as the new Captain America while saving world leaders at a GRC meeting from a Flag Smasher attack.
On this show, Chip Ewing and Scott Higgins hope to discuss life after everything Thanos - both The Snap and The Blip. Scott is a member of "The Blipped" and Chip is one of those who were left behind. Together they will traverse the most important events in their lives and the world at large from their different perspectives.
In our third episode, we dig into the craziness of July 7th: everything that led up to it along with the next couple of weeks aftermath. The world was rocked twice in one day as The Daily Bugle led a charge against Spider-Man, revealed to be a teenage boy in high school. There was so much to talk about as the news moved bewilderingly fast. After everything is covered around Spider-Man, Mysterio, the incident in London, and the biases of J. Jonah Jameson; we turn attention towards Sam Wilson taking on the mantle of Captain America. A rewarding discussion ensues around the merits of this particular Captain America and why he may be just what is needed for this current moment.
Plus, a brief discussion on the Elemental attacks Mysterio was fighting, the tirades of The Daily Bugle against both the main heroes in our stories, and the revelation of the true second Captain America: Isaiah Bradley.
