A Marvel Cinematic Universe Podcast Review on The Lo-ki Raft

An Adventurers Guide to a Podcast Review

Heyyyyooooo! Welcome one and all to “From Adolescent to Adult: The Maturely Immature Adventures of a Polish Guy Named Pat.” On today’s adventure, it’s a bird… It’s a plane… No, it’s Pat’s way of introducing you all to one of the best Marvel Cinematic Universe podcasts out on the web.

 

A Marvel of an Imagination

I’m sure we’ve all been there a few times before. A late-night hangout with some friends, some drinks, snacks, and out of the blue, you find yourself deep in conversation about a topic. You enjoyed yourself so much that the next thing you know hours have gone by.

That’s exactly what I feel like when listening to Rob and Cody on the Lo-Ki Podcast. The “less than expert but more than casual fan” as they like to say, review all kinds of cinematic material from the MCU. They begin their journey with the 2021 TV series on Disney+, Loki. That’s basically it, just two dudes sitting around talking about MCU stuff. It’s very lo-ki… Yes, I know what I did there. Sorry, not sorry.

 

“A fine day to you my super friends! I’m Rob and that’s Cody. And we’d like to welcome you to The Lo-Ki Raft, your slightly buoyant lifeline to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.”

Marvel Cinematic Universe Podcast Review

Podcast Review

The chemistry between Rob and Cody is at the forefront during each episode. You can tell they are close friends. They poke fun at one another, finish each other’s sentences, and on occasion, make each other laugh hysterically… And it’s contagious. I honestly feel like I’m with them just shooting the **** while they discuss the movies. It’s not a play-by-play retelling of the movies but just two friends talking about what they thought of certain characters and some major points in the film/tv series.

 

 

There’s More than Marvel Cinematic Universe Stuff?

After the discussion, they have segments like, “The Raftees”. This is an award segment that gives out awards for both good and, what Rob likes to call, “hot steaming pile of dookie”, things of that episode’s topic of discussion. Bold predictions, where they use their more than average knowledge of the MCU to make some predictions about future upcoming MCU things. Deep dive, where they each pick one character from the film/tv-series and do a deep dive on them. They flesh out more details that the average person would not know. And finally, their ratings. Both Rob and Cody rate the episodes or movie out of 100. They keep a record of all their ratings so they, and us, know where each piece of content stands in relation to one another.

 

Easy Listening!

What’s good about these episodes is that they are really easy to follow and listen to. Most of the time I’m listening to them while driving or doing chores around the house. It’s not paramount that you listen to each second intently. You just have it on in the background as if you had music playing. It’s great!

 

The End of the Review

I feel very fortunate to have been exposed to the Lo-ki Podcast from their beginning days. Seeing them evolve into what they are now brings a huge smile to my face because Rob and Cody are not doing it for the money or for fame. The duo just wants to spread some MCU knowledge around and always hope that their content brings a smile to your face. The one thing that I am jealous of is the fact that you new listeners get to experience them from the very beginning and not have to wait week to week as I do. You can binge their entire 44-episode library, which gets an episode added weekly, in one go!
