Happy New Year! It’s the end of 2019, and that means it’s time for all good podcasts to do a year in review episode. The thing about a show focused on pop culture like ours is that we have already devoted episodes to all of the biggest pop culture events of the year. We know…

Call for Comments: 2020 Fantasy Box Office Game
From Mav: On the first show of this year, we started a tradition with our year long box office game! and by “started a tradition” I mean we shamelessly stole it from our friends over at the Protagonist Podcast.

Call For Comments: The Star Wars and the End of a Modern Epic
From Mav: Well, here we are. We’re one week away from a day that once seemed completely impossible. The “end” of the Star Wars. Or at least the end of the Star Wars as we know them. This should be a pop culture event if ever there was one, so obviously it’s the kind of…

Call for Comments: I Can Cry If I Want To, or, Sentimentalism and Popular Culture
(Repost! This is a repost of an earlier posted blog that was lost in a server crash and upgrade) From Hannah: A few weeks ago, I found myself in the theater watching the newest film in a long line of sentimental Christmas films: Last Christmas. Based solely on the previews and genre, I knew the…
