  • Remember to Use Your Noodle | Hamilton
    Nov 30 2023

    Don't worry Poptarts, we only cover the most recent and relevant pop culture here on this podcast! Which is why we are talking about this fun indie musical Hamilton, which we are certain no one has ever heard before! We discuss how we felt about the performance we saw, how Hamilton makes us think our Founding Fathers were good dudes (tm) and weirdly, the Real Housewives of Potomac. Idk y'all but it's one for the ages!

  • We answer for our standom | The Art vs The Artist
    Oct 27 2023

    Join us on a relevant and hopefully chill conversation on whether we can separate the art from the artist. Is this a worthwhile thing to do? Does it just make us feel nice? Are we just trying to cover up how we still listen to The 1975? Definitely yes to that one! We discuss Matty Healy, Kanye, and Lizzo and somehow end up at the SAT? Unclear to me how we got there but oh well. Hope you enjoy a more subdued (some might even say mature) episode of your fav pod from your fav podcast ladies!

    Oct 19 2023

    It's exactly what it sounds like. In this very silly and spooky episode, Nia and Megan play various rounds of F*ck, Marry, Kill with Halloween or Halloween-adjacnet characters. We will post all rounds on our social so you can vote as well. Cannot recommend enough playing this game with your friends. Much discussion will be had. Happy Halloween and maybe consider going back to therapy.

    Nia walks Megan through the storied story of Lance Armstrong and asks a key question: Did he actually cheat? Regardless of your feelings on cycling, this is an interesting and wild time. Plot twist: Megan doesn't know shit about this athlete except the bracelets and his brief relationship with Sheryl Crow.

  • Now I Am Become Death, Mojo Dojo Casa House | Barbenheimer
    Oct 5 2023

    Welcome back to another glorious season of Pop the Culture! We come in hot (and late) with our feelings on the biggest pop culture of the summer: the movies Barbie and Oppenheimer. It's an episode that covers when we laughed, if we cried, and which actor Megan hates the sight of! It's a strong start with a smooth finish, like our favorite cans of seltzer.

    Dogs are good and Nia just adopted a great one! Listen in to hear about Nia's adoption story - big shoutout to One Tail at a Time in Chicago.
