''Jay and Miles X-Plain the X-Men'' is a weekly {{podcast}} hosted by Jay Edidin (who you might also know as the guy behind ''Blog/WorstMuse'') and Miles Stokes, covering the "ins, outs and {{retcon}}s" of their favorite {{superhero}} SoapOpera, the ComicBook/XMen.
Each episode sets out to [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin explain the X-Men]] for listeners, usually covering a specific story arc in the team's extensive history, starting from their very first issue in 1963 onwards --- though they sometimes break from their usually scheduled programming with creator interviews, live episodes, and even some TabletopRPG specials.
Some noted creators with experience writing X-Books who've appeared on the show include Creator/AnnNocenti (''ComicBook/{{Longshot}}''), Creator/GregRucka (''ComicBook/{{Cyclops|MarvelComics}}''), Si Spurrier (''ComicBook/XMenLegacy''), Greg Pak (''X-Treme X-Men'', ''ComicBook/{{Storm|MarvelComics}}''), Dennis Hopeless (''X-Men: Season One'', ''ComicBook/AllNewXMen''), G. Willow Wilson (''X-Men'') and Creator/ChrisClaremont.
