About This Episode
Some things are too good to be true and aren’t made to last. Spider-Guy in the MCU falls well within that category. Why didn’t it work? What will we do without him? Are we finally going to get to see that real-life into the spider verse with toby McGuire, Andrew Garfield, and Tom Holland that the internet wants so much or will Sony see that sometimes its better to have your big brother with you on the playground? Well, that’s what we want to talk about this week on the Free Play Podcast.
