]]> Age of Radio distro@ageofradio.org X Spaces | Is Sadie Sink the MCU's Savior? 🕷️ PLUS: Why We HATE Adam Driver's New Marvel Role & Want to Throw Snowballs at Frozen 3 Fans! Turn down your echo, put on your headphones, and welcome to another chaotic live session of Mercury Spaces on X! Join hosts Jeremy, Tray, and Joey as they battle severe platform glitches, random echoes, and dropped audio feeds while bringing you the absolute best in pop culture and tech news. First up, the guys celebrate the massive $2.04 billion global success of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, praising its gritty, street-level strategic reset. They break down Tom Holland’s mature performance, the uncanny recreation of classic comic book covers, and Sadie Sink’s mutant debut as Jean Gray. Plus, they share their excitement over Jon Bernthal’s triumphant return as the Punisher, Florence Pugh’s hilarious cameo as Black Widow, and debate the chances of Peter and MJ ever getting back together. Then, they pivot to Samsung's Galaxy Unboxed 2026 event and completely roast the new tiered foldable strategy. They debate if standard Fold 8’s missing stereo speakers and the Ultra's severe thermal throttling are dealbreakers. Tray delivers a hilariously savage take on why anyone under 70 using a stylus on their phone is crazy, while Jeremy geeks out over the highly anticipated 3-pane Gemini Notebook app designed specifically for foldable dual screens. Next, the crew dives into the massive D23 Expo mutant reboot casting. While they praise Samara Weaving as Emma Frost and Maya Boyd as Storm, Joey goes off on Adam Driver being cast as Mr. Sinister, calling him a "dry actor" with only one speed. They also dive into Disney's sequel overload—including Incredibles 3, Zootopia 3, and Coco 2—and Jeremy explains why he wants to throw snowballs at children who watch Frozen 3. Finally, they explore Disney's park expansions, including Magic Kingdom’s Villains Land (featuring the Maleficent coaster) and Hollywood Studios’ terrifying Monstropolis door coaster opening in 2027. The live Space wraps up with details on their upcoming trip to Tucson Comic-Con, where Jeremy and Joey plan to handcuff themselves together to see if kids can pick the locks!Help us reach our goal of 150 subscribers on our YouTube channel (Mercury by Age of Radio) to win two free volumes of Never Whistle at Night, signed by Shane, whom the guys interviewed at WonderCon!
