The action continues to pick up in today's minute as Tony continues to chit chat with the marines in his Humvee before the convoy is ambushed.

In today's episode, I discuss the history of Maxim Magazine including who was atop the Maxim Hot 100 list in 2007 and 2008 when Iron Man was made. There is one connection between those lists and the MCU.

Following that, I talk about the actors who play the marines in the Humvee with Tony, Kevin Foster, Garret Noel, and Eileen Weisinger. I wrap things up with a discussion of early social network MySpace.

Today's minute features more action than yesterday. Tony chats with the occupants of the Humvee he's riding in.

In today's episode, I cover topics including Humvees as military transport and the band AC/DC and their hit song "Back in Black"

On a more serious note, I touch on women in the military, including the important issue of sexual harassment and sexual assault and wrap up with a brief overview of some events in the War on Terror in Afghanistan circa 2007-2008.

Here it is, episode 1 of Iron Man Minute, my new podcast discussing the 2008 film Iron Man, one minute at a time.

In this first episode, I discuss the logos that appear at the beginning of the film for Paramount Pictures and Marvel Studios and provide a little history about each of those companies.

I also talk about the overall action of the minute and give some background on Kunar Province, Afghanistan, the setting for this minute and much of the action to follow in the film.

Finally, I finish things out with a little tidbit I'd never noticed in the film, until I paused it at the one minute mark to make this podcast.
