The Black Panther lives!

Returning director Ryan Coogler and the Marvel machinery have to find a way to take the story of Wakanda forward after the sudden death of their T'Challa, Chadwick Boseman. It's an impossible task, but they do it with grace and respect; honouring and celebrating Boseman's life.

Nitin and Dodi talk the Black Panther's arc from his introduction in Captain America: Civil War to Wakanda Forever. Dodi unveils his new moniker and speculates wildly about the original script of Wakanda Forever (and offers a rewrite of the first movie's script as well) while Nitin goes deeeeeep into the practice of funerals doubling as celebrations of life across cultures and rants about the current state of the MCU. Along the way, they rave about the one true Queen Angela Bassett's arms (who needs a Black Panther when you have Bassett) and compare Ramonda to Sivagami Devi (iykyk). Meanwhile, the censors in India (and Dubai!) play spoilsport as usual. Of course, no episode is complete without the usual random call outs: this time to Kamal Haasan, Breaking Bad, The Leftovers, MCC rules of cricket (!) and more!
