  • Can Superman save us now? – The Man of Steel vs the Age of Trump

    Can Superman save us now? – The Man of Steel vs the Age of Trump
    Jun 27 2025
    On July 11, Superman flies back into cinemas in his third reboot – but this time, he’s different. Director James Gunn promises a beacon of hope, kindness, and decency, a sharp contrast to the grim hero we last saw. How will a reborn idealistic Man of Steel land in the most cynical American moment of the modern era? How has Superman changed in his 87 years in comics, movies and radio? And can he save the American Way from a real-life supervillain in the White House? Ian Gordon, author of Superman: The Persistence of an American Icon , joins fellow comics addict Andrew Harrison in The Bunker’s Fortress of Solitude. IAN GORDON’S SUPERMAN STARTER LIST • Action Comics #1 [[ ]] (June 1938) • “Must There Be a Superman?” Superman #247 (January 1972) – In Superman: The Greatest Stories Ever Told • Superman (1978) the film • “Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?” (Superman #423 and Action Comics #583, September 1986) • Kingdom Come (1996) • All Star Superman #1-12 (2005) • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

  • Are planes really crashing more often?

    Are planes really crashing more often?
    Jun 26 2025
    Mass fatalities in the Air India crash and the collision of a passenger flight and a US Army helicopter over the Potomac have triggered fears that serious aviation accidents are becoming more frequent. But are they really? John Walton, editor of independent aviation journalism site TheUpFront, talks to Andrew Harrison about why panics like this start, how safe air travel really is, and how this high-emissions industry is facing up to a low-emissions future. • Read John Walton on air travel for general readers as well as insiders at TheUpFront. • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • We are sponsored by Indeed.
