The MCU Diaries Podcast — New mask. Same podcast.
This is a smart, craft-first Marvel podcast hosted by Blake Larsen for people who love the MCU but want more than recap, lore-dumping, or empty hype.
Each episode is an essay you can listen to: character pressure, turning points, theme, consequence, and the story choices that actually matter. We track what works, what doesn’t, and how those choices point toward Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars.
This isn’t “hey, remember when?” fandom. It’s selective coverage, big swings, and zero sacred cows.
Spoiler note: We talk full spoilers for whatever we’re covering.

The MCU Diaries: Essays On Marvel Television
The MCU Diaries Host Blake Larsen chats about the WandaVision premiere episode 1.01 “Filmed Before A Live Studio Audience”.
Blake introduces his Marvel experience, what this podcast will be about and how it will be produced and why this is a safe place for nerds of all kinds. He also chats why the premiere isn’t about the “what” so much as it is about the “where and why”, and why he is HERE for it.
