Are these the men with which I am to defend Captain America? Well yes, but ladies first: K. Dale Koontz and her husband/Wanna Cook? co-author Ensley F. Guffey, colloquially known as Guffey und Koontz, are here to talk Captain America: Civil War with Paul and Arlo. The 13th entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe trades world annihilation for an ideological spat, as Cap and Iron Man disagree about how best to flex the Avengers' supermuscle. The gang discusses this change of pace, whether the premise works, how it differs from the infamous comics event, and the franchise's new players (Black Panther! Spider-Man!). Plus, if that wasn't patriotic enough for you, The Americans continues to be one of the best shows on television.   Next: pop culture writer Matthew Jackson stops by to gush about Lin-Manuel Miranda's musical phenomenon Hamilton, including its new behind-the-scenes book, Hamilton: The Revolution.
