EPISODE 05: IMPERIAL (FT. JAMELLE BOUIE)

New X-Men #122-126

Cassandra Nova's last stand is a massive arc, full of important things to consider about the rise and fall of empires. So it should come as no surprise that Josie and Becca enlisted a massive guest: political columnist Jamelle Bouie (jamellebouie.net)! What does this arc teach us about American politics, friendship, and how to run an open school night? Join us and find out! PLUS: Beast comes out as gay, and we'll worry about that later!
