    Wrap Up 5: Spiderman and Responsibility
    Nov 10 2026
    Does Peter Parker vote? Steve Stormoen put that to the group on election day, and it set the tone for a Spider-Man conversation about everyday power. Matthew Fox and Paul Hoppe welcome back Will Freeland and Steve Stormoen of the Hype Is My Superpower podcast to talk about how a teenager from Queens became Marvel’s most relatable hero, and why the comics never let him stop failing.Matthew suggests the famous motto works best aimed at the power we pretend we don’t have, the skipped vote or the ugly joke nobody challenges. The group also weighs whether Spider-Man would have backed Curtis Sliwa’s Guardian Angels, and why webs make him the rare hero who can stop someone without hurting them. So what are you still telling yourself you’re powerless to change?

  • Wrap Up 4: Benevolent Overlords

    Wrap Up 4: Benevolent Overlords
    Nov 3 2026
    Matthew Fox offers Paul Hoppe an alien’s button that would end meat-eating, and Paul has pressed it before the offer is done. Matthew and Paul, a professional poker player and writer, continue the Superhero Ethics wrap-up series with the benevolent authoritarian. Next comes a button that would mind control people out of believing COVID and climate change are hoaxes, and the end of “Supergirl” season one, where Kryptonians plan to fix the climate by running humanity for two years.Paul separates changing what someone does from changing who they are, and Matthew asks whether advertising already does a weaker version of both. Obi-Wan’s offhand mind trick in “Attack of the Clones” gets a hearing, and so does parenting, where Matthew takes dangerous things away from their kid without a second thought. So if a more advanced species decides humanity is the kid, who gets to say no?

  • Wrap Up 3: Amanda Waller

    Wrap Up 3: Amanda Waller
    Oct 27 2026
    Amanda Waller has no superpowers, just the government’s AmEx card and a mandate nobody voted on. Matthew Fox and Paul Hoppe continue their wrap-up series with DC’s best-known government operative, following her through “Justice League Unlimited,” “Arrow,” and both “Suicide Squad” films to see what happens to superhero accountability once the oversight disappears.Paul loves her as an antagonist because her logic holds together, and Matthew sees J. Edgar Hoover in her. They test the phrase “existential threat” against “Project Hail Mary,” Luthen in “Andor,” Watergate, and life after 9/11, and keep returning to a question Waller has already settled for herself: if the threat is real, which principles are you still unwilling to break?
