Roma is My Brother's Annoying Boss with Connor Goldsmith - Uncanny X-Men 227

Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future.
In this GIANT SIZED episode Connor Goldsmith of the excellent Cerebro podcast joins our host Lodro Rinzler to discuss Fall of the Mutants! Yes, Connor was born during this pivotal shift in X-Men history and so we unpack his future through looking at Uncanny X-Men 227.
We discuss the founding of Cerebro, Chris Claremont's newscaster girlfriend, how everyone has been mayor of NYC (at least with Wilson Fisk the subways run on time) as well as more moving themes of Madelyne Pryor as human ally and damned mutant, Claremont’s thesis on how to be a good person and the Jewish practice of atonement. What does any of that have to do with Connor's fate? Tune in to find out!
