Podcasts are incredibly popular right now as a way of consuming content on the go. Considering Marvel is one of the largest entertainment brands in the world, it’s no surprise that there are thousands of podcasts out there, both in an official and fan-led capacity, for audiences to enjoy.

These podcasts are worth checking out for fans of the house of ideas, ranging from fanmade to officially produced by the company. These Marvel-focused podcasts cover everything from comic books to audio dramas using Marvel characters to the MCU itself.

The Weekly Planet

The Weekly Planet podcast hosted by Mr. Sunday Movies and Nick Mason doesn’t just cover Marvel content, but touches upon pop culture from comics, to video games, movies, and TV shows. However, there is rarely an episode where the hilarious podcast doesn’t feature Marvel in some capacity.

Despite their laidback style, both are incredibly well-informed on all things Marvel. Their theories and ideas surrounding the MCU are always entertaining, and there are special episodes dedicated to looking at some of the most iconic stories from the comics!

Marvel’s Pull List

Marvel’s Pull List is an official podcast from the company hosted by Ryan “Agent M” Penagos and Tucker Markus. The duo has great chemistry as they work their way through some of the big releases of the week and what they are looking forward to reading more of.

For fans who have downloaded the Marvel Unlimited app, there’s also a period of the podcast dedicated to looking at the updated releases on that platform. Marvel’s Pull List occasionally includes a special guest as well, as the team focuses on a topical narrative or character and which comics are perfect to check out based on them.

This Week In Marvel

This Week In Marvel is another official podcast, hosted by Ryan “Agent M” Penagos, Lorraine Cink, and James Monroe Iglehart. It deals with the latest news from the house of ideas, whether it’s the latest movie release, video game, or major comic book arc that’s about to commence.

The presenters are deeply knowledgeable about the company they represent and this is a super fun podcast that keeps audiences up to date on everything happening.

Marvel’s Wastelanders

Marvel’s Wastelanders isn’t a conventional podcast. It’s almost like an audio narrative but it’s been produced in an ongoing podcast format, telling the story of the far future with a number of the ‘old’ characters that fans may be familiar with from the comics.

Star-Lord, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Wolverine are some of the most prominent characters in this series and this official Marvel podcast has enlisted some of the best writing and voice acting talent in the industry. There are several Wastelander series demonstrating the depth of the concept.

Serious Issues

Serious Issues are another Australian podcast hosted by Andrew Levins and Siobhan Coombs. This great partnership is built off the back of a genuine friendship, which allows the duo to talk about all kinds of comics, from Marvel, DC, and beyond.

Marvel is always going to have a featured section within the podcast and there is a wide range of comics from across the weeks which are rounded up and summarized for the audience. These hosts always give the best recommendations and it’s once again a great podcast for those with Marvel Unlimited.

Wolverine: The Long Night

Another podcast that is more narrative-based from Marvel is Wolverine: The Long Night, a saga based upon Logan’s adventures. It’s once again gorgeously written, with a fantastic set of voice actors giving real depth and emotion to these iconic characters.

This podcast is far more limited with a set number of episodes, but that doesn’t mean it won’t return considering its popularity. For those who want to enter the Marvel Universe uniquely, this gritty story is a great alternative experience.

MCU Rewind

MCU Rewind from Al Rodriguez and Tony Camarena is a great podcast for fans of the movies and TV shows set within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The format of the piece sees the two hosts go through each project, breaking them down in great detail.

It’s a real celebration of this expansive universe and includes every release from the Netflix shows to what has been recently seen on Disney+. There is so much content to get stuck into here from the battles to the casting and costume design and the takes are always complex and usually hilarious.

Women Of Marvel

The Women Of Marvel podcast from Marvel itself is a celebration of all of the heroines and women behind the production of these inspiring stories. Hosted by Ellie Pyle, Angélique Roché, and Judy Stephens, each episode usually boasts an incredible interview as well.

It’s a unique and important angle to navigate from and one that has been praised by fans for its detail and genuine focus on the talent of these fantastic women. As the MCU continues to progress it will lead to further episodes based upon the women on screen and not just on the page.

Marveling At Marvel’s Marvels

The podcast Marveling At Marvel’s Marvels has a great premise because it’s hosted by a mega fan in Jonathan and a non-comic book reader in Josef. Their dynamic means that there’s a conflict between the two, but when something is genuinely good it’s presented objectively.

Every week the duo go through various characters, storylines, or events, analyzing them and looking to deem them successful or not. It’s a fascinating exploration of Marvel’s history and could take fans in any direction, reminding them of previous classics. while nodding to the MCU and the wider legacy Marvel films.

Fat Man Beyond

Director Kevin Smith and writer Marc Bernardin team up for Fat Man Beyond, a podcast where the duo looks at all kinds of pop culture releases, from the world of comic books to much further afield. However, the filmmaker has a unique point of view on Marvel films thanks to his place in the industry.

Smith has a close connection to Marvel and offers up some great points to mull over in his analysis of all of the recent releases. While Marvel fans will be satisfied, this isn’t totally a Marvel podcast, although there are plenty of crossover interests that will be featured here as well.
