Superman (2025) Through Gen X Eyes | Jimmy & Jason Break It Down!

What does James Gunn’s Superman mean to the generation that grew up with Christopher Reeve, dog-eared comics, and visits to the birthplace of the Man of Steel? 🦸‍♂️ Jimmy Palmquist is joined by special guest Jason Applegate from MI Geek Easy for a nostalgic, nerdy, and no-holds-barred Gen X deep dive into the newest Superman movie.


From their childhood trips to Cleveland, Ohio — Superman’s real-world origin — to their thoughts on how this film honors (and updates) the legacy of the character, this conversation is full of memories, insights, and plenty of nerd love.


Plus, the guys take a fun detour into other nerdy topics—from retro comics to the state of modern superhero movies. Whether you’re a lifelong Superman fan or just love a good geek-out session, this episode is for you.
