In My Defense is a show for geeks who want to share their most beloved subject matter with the world. Guests come on every week to let their geek flag fly, covering subject matter across the spectrum from movies, TV, sports, philosophy and more.
On this week’s long-overdue episode, guest Stephen Andes is on to discuss the legendary American folk hero, El Zorro. What about Zorro made Stephen want to write a whole book about the character? How has the legacy of Zorro affected the American myth around superheroes? How has that legacy changed over time? And over a century, what are some of our favorite story moments surrounding one of America’s first vigilante legends? All this and more on The In My Defense Podcast!

Episode 19: Superman (Good or Bad Character?)
What's that in your feed? It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's the In My Defense Podcast! We are back in the new year all the way from Krypton to discuss if Superman really is as boring as people say he is. Terrance and Marcus join the show to ask the hard-hitting questions. What makes the true Superman? What comic-book moment consistently makes Christian cry? And did Marcus really write up notes for this? All this and more on The In My Defense Podcast!

Episode 18: Santa Claus Lore
Every year, the world is constantly bombarding us with images and tales of a jolly old man, with a big round belly, a smile, and a bright red suit being pulled on a magical sleigh, pulled by eight tiny reindeer. But there is so much more to Santa Claus than being the most generous reverse-cat-burglar in the world. Deep down, is a rich history of violence, faith, and demon-slaying that proves that good old Kris Kringle is much more metal than we give him credit for. Join Nic Saenz and Host Christian Rivero as we ask; What could have possibly earned Santa a night in jail? Where the army of polar bears come from? What dark truth lurks behind the Santa Clause franchise? All on this week’s episode of the In My Defense Podcast!
