KA-POW! The Pop Cultured Podcast

After a couple weeks of special themed episodes, the team at Ka-Pow settles back in to our regularly scheduled format and tries to catch up on all the nerdy news we've missed.  We cover all our usual entertainment categories - adding new releases in animation and online streaming into the mix! - in a fast, funny hour mixing astute pop culture analysis with silly voices and passive aggressive insul...

Live, from Marietta, Ohio...  It's Midnight!  In this extra-special episode, the crew from Ka-Pow set up the microphones at our favorite neighborhood comic shop, Asylum Comics , on the evening of their "DC: Rebirth" Midnight Release Party.  We drank some strong coffee, then spent a late evening talking to attendees about what they enjoy reading and what they're most looking forward to, then challe...

We interrupt your current podcast for this special report!  Two huge moments rocked the comic book world this week, and we just couldn't keep our opinions to ourselves.  So rather than waiting until the next regular episode, the boys from Ka-Pow recorded a special show just to talk about the "DC Universe: Rebirth" one-shot and "Captain America: Steve Rogers" #1.  We spoil the plots, the big moment...

Welcome to our special "Captain America: Civil War" movie review episode!  This week, the Ka-Pow team - and special guest Jared Lowe from the upcoming "Video Commentary Rewind" podcast - plant ourselves like a tree beside the river of truth and spend the entire show discussing Marvel's latest blockbuster.  We spoil every inch of the plot from beginning to end, from critiquing Vision's fashion sens...

Part Two concludes our DC versus Marvel debate!  We match up even more equivalent characters from each company and then duke it out until a winner is declared.  Namor vs. Aquaman!  Catwoman vs. Black Cat!  Iron Man vs. Cyborg!  Anti-Monitor vs. Galactus!  Winter Soldier vs. Red Hood!  We do our best to finally declare one definitive winner between the age-old rivals - and fail miserably - so we ne...

It's a special Ka-Pow debate episode!  We are giving listeners an extra week to see "Captain America: Civil War" before we give you our spoiler-y thoughts on the new movie.  So to fill the time in between, we stage a Civil War of our own.  With Michael and Cliff on the DC side, and Jordan and Seth taking up the Marvel flag, we go through a list of equivalent characters from each universe to try an...

This week the Ka-Pow crew celebrates our favorite holiday: Free Comic Book Day!  Tune in to Episode Five to hear our thoughts on all the recent big pop culture news, then stick around for an in-depth look at many of the goodies that will be available for free in comic shops nationwide this weekend. Length - 1:47:25 Language - PG.  (Contains some mildly adult themes and innuendo.)   0:04:21 - STAR...

It’s a free-wheeling fourth episode for Ka-Pow: The Pop Cultured Podcast.  Jordan, Cliff and Seth cover all the usual news from the worlds of comics, movies and television, while a loopy, sleep-deprived Michael does his best to keep focused and not run us too far off the rails.  After he finally gets calmed down (and puts his shirt back on), the team has just enough time to end the show with a spo...

Welcome back for the third episode of Ka-Pow: The Pop Cultured Podcast!  There was an awful lot of news to discuss this week, so we hit as many topics as we can while still leaving time to spotlight an excellent piece of fan fiction and take a detailed view of the first wave of new DC: Rebirth comics.  And don’t worry, millennials, unlike those oppressive old-fashioned movie theaters, we don’t car...

The second episode of Ka-Pow: The Pop Cultured Podcast has arrived!  Audio issues scrapped our original plans, so we’ve rolled with the punches, dug deep for some interesting movie and comic news, found lots of television to discuss and present our first ever Indie Spotlight on a creator-owned comic book.  It’s a jam-packed show, so kick back and give us a listen.  We promise not to end things on...

It's time for Ka-Pow: The Pop Cultured Podcast!

Length - 1:09:15 Language - PG. (Contains some mildly adult themes and innuendo.) 2:40 - Introd...
