09: Bits and Bobs

Published: Jan. 14, 2016, 1 p.m.

Welcome to Episode 9 of Vicarious! This episode, we talk about a ton of things, including Marvel on TV, violence in Disney films, The All-New All-Different Marvel, The Man in the High Castle, a few video games, and the new Quentin Tarantino film The Hateful Eight. Also, stay tuned after the end music for a few minutes of bonus chat about digital movie collections, 4K TVs, and PC gaming.

We had a blast discussing this stuff and hope you enjoy listening! If you do, we'd appreciate a rating on iTunes. If you'd like to chat, you can find us on Twitter at @vicarious_fm, or you can join our Slack team!
