Marvel's Iron Fist CROSSOVER with Kate Sanchez of But Why Tho?

Marvel\'s Iron Fist CROSSOVER with Kate Sanchez of But Why Tho?

In true comic book fashion, JR. joins forces with Kate Sanchez of the But Why Tho? podcast. We watched all of Marvel's Iron Fist so you don't have to (the episode is spoiler-y toward the end.) We dive into the comic character of Danny Rand, talk about where the show sits in the Marvel Netflix universe, and talk about the show's Good, Bad and Ugly. Kate is a great podcaster, and we had a lot of fun even without our regular cohosts.
