The Legendary Ladies Podcast

On this week's The Legendary Ladies Podcast, Amy and Kat are diving into THE BOYS (metaphorically).

They also chat about the open commentary that The Boys seems to be making regarding larger comic book brands like Marvel and DC, and how the idea of "show, don't tell" in this particular...

The Legendary Ladies Podcast

On this week’s episode of The Legendary Ladies Podcast - it’s a Duo Dua Lipa episode! Which makes it sounds like we have Dua Lipa on the podcast…which we don’t.

We have our top 5 - but...
