With us this week is the voice of Bishop on X-Men '97, Isaac Robinson Smith! We follow him from an early love of sound to an amazing trajectory as a voice actor, including a lot of wonderful and memorable stories of his time as Bishop.

Isaac Robinson-Smith is a voice actor who is able to voice everything from zany characters to earnest announcers. His vocal versatility has turned him into one of LA’s rising voiceover stars. Whether he’s recording in a vocal booth, singing at Disneyland, or just practicing his much-requested Morgan Freeman impression, Isaac Robinson-Smith’s voice is always entertaining someone. He has been Adam in Voltron, Mushu in Dreamlight Valley, Dark Choco Cookie in CRK and Black Panther for Disney Parks.

With us this week is Miles and Anna Stokes! Full disclosure: this lil podcast would not exist if Jay and Miles Xplain the X-Men didn’t pave the way for it. We are interrupting X-Men ‘97 Month for a week because Jay and Miles Xplain the X-Men JUST ENDED and this is a good communal way to process that news.

So if you’re heartbroken, come on in for this victory lap/debrief and meet Anna, who is a kick-ass human being with stories to share.

We cover the X-Men issue that came out during their wedding anniversary - X-Men 2 (it’s Krakoa, baby) - and they play the X-Newlywed Game.

Also in this episode:

• What’s Miles’ next big project?
• the X-Men as Captain Planet
• That time Sunfire didn’t quit
• A bizarre poker game
• The likely origin story of Cordecyps Jones
• How telepathy actually works
• The mutant MRI machine
• The definitive Xorn explanation

What does this mean for Anna and Miles' future together as a couple? Tune in to find out!

For the last 12 years, Miles Stokes has been enthusiastically attempting to make sense of comics' most complicated superhero soap opera as half of the podcast Jay & Miles X-Plain the X-Men. By day, he fixes computers for a non-mutant-related comic book publisher, and by night, he tries and fails to catch up on his gigantic media backlog.

Anna Stokes is an enigma wrapped in shadows, or possibly just an endearing dork with an excellent fashion sense. She loves horror, British comedy, the visual arts, and spends most of each week listening to people's life stories while she expertly rips hair out of their bodies in her role as an esthetician.

Anna and Miles live in Portland, Oregon in a spooky house full of nerdy things, or possibly a nerdy house full of spooky things, in the middle of a pretty great community of creators and weirdos.
