Episode 11: Riot at Xavier's (feat. Jay Edidin) (New X-Men 134-138)

New X-Men is a comic about the new vs. the old, and Riot at Xavier's is that theme at its most relevant. Which is why Josie and Becca needed a very special guest: Jay Edidin of Jay and Miles X-Plain the X-Men! That's right, it's the crossover you've all been waiting for! There's so much to discuss about political and cultural frustrations as we discuss the rise and fall of the other New X-Men. And of course, you can't podcast with three trans people, two of whom did Quentin Quire cosplays, without getting into some deep thoughts on gender. Plus, Beast's sexuality gets addressed once again!

Content Warnings: Discussions of fascism, transphobia, school shootings
