Will and Jes discuss WandaVision, episode 3 ("Now in Color") with RPG Designer and Social Worker Jessica Marcrum.

Topics include:

• The theory that EXPLAINS the Beekeeper, the helicopter, and "Geraldine."
• Wanda and Vision's neighbors: who they are, what they know, who's "in on it," and what Herb was trying to say.
• Who Agnes really is.
• S.W.O.R.D.: the new meaning behind the acronym, and why they're concerned with Wanda's Westview.
• The implications of SWORD's role in the MCU.
• Inspirations from the comics and how the show still goes its own way.
• How the show works as a sitcom AND on a meta-level.
• Why Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and other Marvel shows prior to WandaVision aren't really part of the MCU (yet?).
• The escalating "glitches" in Wanda's sitcom reality.
• Wanda vs. Captain Marvel: who is more powerful.
• Wanda's suprising role in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness
• The grief and loss in Wanda and Vision's story.
• Vision: a character we haven't seen enough of.
• How Wanda and Vision's most intimate, personal moments carry the story and will make the end more tragic.
• The Mephisto connection EXPLAINED.
• Why Mephisto chose to appear in the way he did, when he did; and why he behaved that way.
• Monica Rambeaux.
• Who's pulling Wanda's strings, and how/why she's psychologically vulnerable to manipulation.
• The character we'll see whose presence will be most shocking (and it's insane multiversal implications).
• What Jes would put right what once went wrong in the MCU.
• QUICKSILVER(s)!!!??
• How Vision is alive.
• One limit of Wanda's power.
• Which 80s sitcom will the next episode be modeled on? Which sitcom house will they live in?
