170 – Top 5 X-Men Characters

To me, my X-Men!

What’s there to say that hasn’t already been said about the X-Men? They are easily some of comic books most recognizable teams and for good reason!

Now the X-Men haven’t always had a home run when it comes to it’s movies, but with the recent boom of the X-Men ’97 TV show we’d be remiss not to talk about all the cool mutants that are in this beloved property.

Our guest in this episode is mustard and smoked-meat wizard Zane Caplansky, founder of Caplanksy’s Deli & purveyor of fine mustards.

As it turns out, the struggles associated with balancing artisanal meats and mustards and attempting to find balance in life are huge. Six-figure-legal-fees huge.

So, grab some pickles, dip ’em in some tasty Caplansky mustard & enjoy our journey strugglin’ on with Zane Caplanksy.

While the Pixar Pals learn pretty quickly that there’s Nobody Like U, their fellow 4*Townies Meilin and friends navigate the complicated and often contradictory priorities that come with familial responsibility, extraordinary friendship, and growing up a tiny bit different from everyone else.
