Super friend and the listener Mark Sutton asks. I've had this rattling around in my head since watching Superman the Christopher Reeve story. There's a lot of footage in the documentary of Reed Family Home movies, and I realize that it would make a perfect sense for Superman to be just like that. All he has of his birth parents is recordings. And I imagine, especially after he has a son of his own, he'd be obsessed with documenting everything, maybe get some tips from Jimmy on how to work

a camera.

That's it.

It's just really heartwarming in my head.

And I think it's nice to have exist.

And it is observations like that.

And it is Superman coming out on July 11th.

That is why we have answered the Halcyon call to give you a Superman mailbag episode.

So I'm going to say say hello and welcome to geek history

lesson. I'm Ashley Victoria Robinson. I'm Jason Inman. Welcome to your podcast. That was the opening

fanfare of John Williams, a musical theme that is so beautiful and so amazing that we can't leave it

alone, even though it's over 40 years old and probably should go to rest. And we also simply can't play it here for copyright reasons. Just can't do it. John Williams won't let us. Yeah. John Williams, oh, good God. Have a well-deserved rest. I hope you're drinking a nice Mai Tai on a porch somewhere. Absolutely. Just enjoying it everywhere. But we're here to talk about Superman because Superman's everywhere.

Well, he's not really everywhere.

But he seems to be Warner Bros. definitely shoving him down my throat. And I'm tired of it. No, anyways. He's everything everywhere all at once. He is. There's a lot. I will tell you around Los Angeles, there's a lot of billboards of Superman stuff around. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's everywhere. It's not really everywhere in

places like supermarkets

and stuff like that,

but it's everywhere. It's not really everywhere in, like, you know, places like supermarkets and stuff like that, but it's everywhere. On the 405. On the 401. But, yeah, so we decided in honor of that movie and doing this podcast, we have a Patreon over at patreon.com slash jaw and J-W-I-I-N, where we asked some of our friends to give us some

Superman questions.

So if you want to be like the people, it's a Superman mailbag. Superman flew into her house and he dropped a crap ton of letters on our heads. And we said, oh, Superman. And he said, that's what you get. And we said, okay, Jesus. All right, back off. And then he flew away. We do have several Superman-themed episodes that you can go and listen to.

We have the Golden Age. We have the Silver Age. And then he flew away. We do have several Superman-themed episodes that you can go and listen to.

We have the Golden Age.

We have the Silver Age.
