Episode 5.27: The Homer

Episode 5.27: The Homer - San Diego Comic Con 2025 has officially kicked off, and Marvel’s back on stage doing what they do best—dropping massive announcements and praying we forgot about Phase 4. This week, Greg and Garrick dig into the freshly unrolled MCU roadmap straight from Kevin Feige, the man, the myth, the baseball-cap-wearing overlord of superhero continuity.

With a new commitment to "quantity over quality" (because apparently someone finally read the comment section), the guys unpack the next two chapters of the MCU, what this “realignment” really means, and whether or not we’re just getting more of the same—but with better CGI. They also review what’s left in the pipeline for 2025 movie releases and which projects might actually deliver something fresh.

As always, the conversation is seasoned with a healthy pour of skepticism, a splash of rum, and a few tangents you absolutely didn’t ask for. And yes, they explain the title. Sort of.

Two rambling idiots—Greg and Garrick—bring you the *Rum & Nerdy Podcast*, a weekly dive into the world of nerd culture through the eyes of late 40s/early 50s dads who still can't get enough of their favorite movies, TV shows, and theme parks. With a deep love of all things nerdy and a shared passion for good rum, these two buddies mix laid-back humor, nostalgic memories, and plenty of laughs as they discuss everything from classic sci-fi to the latest pop culture trends.
