Uncanny: The X-Men 97 Podcast

When Marvel Studios launched X-Men 97 on Disney+ in 2024, a wave of new podcasts popped up to cover it, and Uncanny was one of the better ones. The show offers episode-by-episode breakdowns of the animated revival series, packed with easter egg analysis, character history explainers, and connections back to the original 1990s show. With 11 episodes covering Season 1 and a speculation episode about Season 2, the catalog is compact but focused. Episodes run 28 to 50 minutes, which is a good length for post-episode analysis without becoming exhausting. The host demonstrates strong knowledge of the source material, particularly the comic book storylines that the animated series adapts. The clean rating makes it accessible to the full range of X-Men 97 viewers, including younger audiences discovering these characters for the first time. The 4.0 rating from 21 reviews is solid if not spectacular, with some listeners noting that the host can lean negative at times rather than celebrating the nostalgia factor. But for anyone who wants detailed breakdowns of what happened in each X-Men 97 episode and why it matters in the broader X-Men context, this show delivers exactly that. With Season 2 on the horizon, expect the episode count to grow significantly.
