All Pop, No Culture

This week the guys cover Ahsoka, A swath of A24 horror films, Several '80s movies, Dear Child, and more! Kevin had a lot of time on his hands with the week off and he seemingly watched everything under the sun. He kicks off the show talking about the horror classic, Rosemary's Baby. Oddly enough, as it will eventually lead into talk about other A24 films, but Rosermary's Baby has a very modern day...

This week it's just Kevin and Jen and they get into the new raunchy canine comedy Strays, as well as the new Sandler flick, You are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah. Jen kicks it off talking about Strays, which sounds like a very adult good time. For what it's worth, it sounds like it maybe isn't quite as good as No Hard Feelings, but Jen was laughing the whole time, so that's not the worst thing....

This week Kevin and Andrew stay relevant for at least half the show,  talking about the Rebel Moon trailer, The Flash, Ahsoka, and more. Of course Kevin derails that a bit with a few older shows, but what can you do with this guy? The guys start off talking about the new Rebel moon trailer. This is Zach Snyder's "Star Wars" movie and it's very Snyder-y. If that's your jam, you might be excited abo...

The guys are back this week to talk about The Pope's Exorcist, Blue Beet'e, Foundation, and (sadly) Geostorm. Stay til the end, too, as Andrew gets a little deep on what vibe is defining the modern generation and then a discussion on... Taylor Swift?!? Kevin starts off talking about The Pope's Exorcist which is currently available on Netflix. If horror is your jam and you like the "based on a true...

This week Andrew and Kevin jump into the new Twisted Metal series on Peacock, Heart of Stone on Netflix, and 2 documentaries on Netflix, Poisoned and How to Become a Tyrant. Kevin meant to talk Twisted Metal last week but completely forgot so he makes up for it this week by getting into it. It came as a pretty rave review, so enjoy that. Next up Andrew discusses the new food documentary on Netflix...

This week the group talks Oppenheimer. How to Become A Cult Leader, Super Mario Bros., and the Fast and Furious franchise. But wait!!! Yes, that is a new face you spy! Andrew brings his friend Salony on for this episode and, much like Jen(ny) and Kim, she brings some actual culture to this ragtag bunch. We kick off the episode with a get to know you session. Salony is, as they all are, a former cl...

This weeks episode kickas off with They Cloned Tyrone, followed by How to Become a Cult Leader, and ends with the Secret Invasion Finale. Watch in real time as Kevin slowly convinces Andrew that They Cloned Tyrone is better than he thought it was. Is it hypnosis or does he maybe have the skills to Become a Cult Leader? (See what I did there?) Andrew runs through the general premise of the show and...

This week is a full house and the gang covers the new Barbie movie and Start Trek Strange New Worlds. Is that all? Absolutley not!! What else did they cover? A whole lot! Of course they start off with a discussion of The Bear because how could they not? Pete talks Minx, Heels, and The After Party really quick before Jen(ny) and Andrew (what?!?) talk Barbie. Its a surprisingly good review from both...

This is a busy one! There's Secret Invasion, Evil Dead, The Bear, The Brit Marling-Verse, and even the 2012 film, Battleship. First, though, the guys talk Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. Andrew has been away and Kevin had no one to actually discuss this this fantastic film with so Andrew allows him a bit of an outlet. After that, it's a wild roller coaster ride of interesting television and movi...

This week it's the new Indy 5 Movie, The Flash, and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. There's also a little talk about the DCU's new Superman and Lois and a quick touch on the Transformers franchise. Kevin is FINALLY not alone again so het gets to talk Spidey with Andrew for the first time before jumping into Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. And since Kevin has principles and Andrew, clearl...

Welcome back! This week Kevin reviews 65, Operation Fortune, The Fablemans, Searching, and Missing. Why does he have so many movies to review you ask? Well, it was a travel week and so, when you spend 16 hours on planes, you have time to watch a few movies! So sit back, lean your seats back and lower your tray tables and enjoy what is probably a very bumpy ride! As always, thank you for watching....

We've got Transformers Rise of the Beasts, The Crowded Room, and Based on a True Story on tap this week. We'll also have a more in depth discussion of Ted Lasso and Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse. Pete also talks about ESPN's 30 for 30 which is now streaming on Disney+. This one is just a lot of fun and marks the first time it's been just Pete and Kevin in a long time and it comes, coincident...

Between the penultimate Spider-Man Spider-Verse film and the finales of Ted Lasso and Mrs. Maisel, There's a good amount of info to cover this week. Lucky you, there is no one to interrupt Kevin (besides himself) and he gets through his reviews in record time! Well, it seems like record time, but it took him twice as long. Why? Watch and find out! But overall, Kevin loved all 3 of the things he wa...

The Little Mermaid, FUBAR, Shazam, and even The Vanderpump Rules (much to Kevin's chagrin...) are up for grabs with a packed house this week. With a larger than usual cast of characters on the episode, the content gets... eclectic. On top of that we have a special addition this week, Jen's daughter Sydney. She joined to be a second voice to review The Little Mermaid, but she turned out to be an ev...

This week Kevin and Andrew jump straight into Air before moving on to Fatal Attraction and Midnight Suns. It's a super brisk episode and the focus is definitely on Air and Fatal Attraction, primarily the episode Medial Woman. Kevin throws in a rare video game review, however brief, of Midnight Suns on the PS5. Also, don't forget to stay til the end. Andrew talks about Kevins topic last week, the W...

Kevin covers the WGA Strike The Class of 09, The Deep House, and the 3rd season of Superman & Lois. Season 3 of Superman and Lois is more of the same, quality-wise, but that isn't a bad thing! There's some new drama for the Kent family as Lois is stricken with cancer and there's a newly recasted Jonathan Kent, but the show is still as solid as ever. The Deep House is a horror flick now playing on...

Welcome to another episode! This week we bring in another friend of Andrew's from his Chicago days, Sara. She is a huge fan of Dune and we felt like it was a great time to bring her on since that trailer just dropped! She's also super cool because she moonlit as a boxer for a while. Like a real life, punch throwing boxer! And then, of course, she lights Andrew's fire by talking Attack on Titan. Be...

Welcome back! It's another solo episode for Kevin and this is solely everyone else's fault. What are they thinking having lives and families?!? This is a short one so Kevin keeps it nice and concise. He starts with a quick recap of The Last Thing He Told Me before jumping into the new Peacock show, Mrs. Davis, which he thoroughly enjoyed. After a very small tangent into the new DCU he redirects ov...

Welcome to another fun episode of All Pop No Culture! Our biggest topic of the week is, of course, Star Trek Picard (Paramount+,) both the season/series finale and the third season as a whole. While Jen is on this week, that topic will be the sole property of Kevin and Andrew. But don't fret! Jen will get a lot of time this week. Kevin kicks off the show by talking about the new Peacock release, M...

Welcome to another episode of All Pop, No Culture! This episode is shorter than usual because it's not our usual episode! In fact, it's just bonus material from last episode! That's right, we intended to end last episode right where we did, but then ended up talking for way too long! This turned out to be kismet because Kevin came down with COVID right before the usual recording night so the gang...

This week, the guys bring on Leah, who has been one if our biggest supporters and has known Andrew since middle school. What's absolutely bonkers is that they haven't seen each other in decades! That doesnt stop the show from flowing, though. We kick off the show by talking about Superstore and TV comedies as we get to know Leah and find out what her tastes in entertainment lean toward. Hint: it's...

Welcome to another first for the APNC crew. First off, there's 5 of us for the first time in a long time! Second, this is the first ever D&D game played on the show. First, though, the gang sits down and talks about the new film, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves! Much like the overall critical reviews, the group really enjoyed the film and it's a marked improvement over the last D&D film de...

As is so often the case, Kevin has no friends. But, like, ZERO. So you get him in his diminished state rambling on about '80s horror. But this is moments for him, so just play along. Horror is a hot topic on this show and someone of Kevin's age has no excuse for these holes in his watch history. He buckled down this week and watches the first 2 films in all 3 major horror franchises of the '80s, H...

We have an awesome episode for you this week. Before jumping into the meat of the show, Andrew breaks down not only Creed 3, but the entire franchise and its ties to Rocky as well. Once he finishes that review, he gives a much shorter and very different review of Shazam 3. After that, we get to the main course, and that is The Last of Us, Season 1. but it's not enough for just Kevin and Andrew to...

This week has Kim, Andrew, and Kevin back in the saddle. The show kicks off with some idle chit chat, discussing video games and their potential television adaptations following the success of The Last of Us. Next up the gang digs into some sci-fi chat and Kevin and Andrew preach the gospel of Battlestar Galactica to Kim. This leads to a deeper dive into slow burn shows like Breaking Bad and Bette...
