This week, Dave, Neil, and Joanna are debating who’s the best member of the X-Men! But first, they discuss the importance of the original ‘X-Men’ animated series and why ‘X-Men '97’ is so successful, their favorite live-action film, and their dream cast for the upcoming MCU iteration of the team (07:08 ). Then, they discuss some pretrial awards and dismissals (42:44 ), before revealing their top three picks and hearing some of your picks to figure out which four should make it to the final poll (46:34 ).

Now it’s up to you to decide! Who is the best member of the X-Men? You can vote for the winner at ⁠⁠⁠⁠TheRinger.com⁠⁠⁠⁠, on The Ringer’s X feed, and in the Spotify app, where you’ll find ‘Trial by Content.’ The winner will be announced on the next episode!
