Phase 3, Episode 2
Now, for something a little different in the MCU. It's the mystic arts of Doctor Strange, starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams, Benedict Wong, Mads Mikkelsen and Tilda Swinton. Directed by Scott Derrickson.
We meet Dr. Steven "Jerk" Strange as we get a new origin story from his horrific accident to his miraculous recovery with the help of The Ancient One. This is a character that Pat is unfamiliar within comic world, so Mike isn't alone this episode as they both learn a few things about the character's growth from the page to screen.
They dissect the introduction to the multi-verse and ponder its possible continuation throughout future MCU movies. Mike and Pat also delve into other IPs from the DC Universe for some reason unbeknownst even to them. You came for Doctor Strange, but you're getting some Green Lantern history as well.
Enjoy!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
