Stuff We've Missed: George Michael - Faith / Top Solo Artists who Came from Groups
Pop Culture Yearbook
C-c-c-c-c'mon! It's time to revisit one of our favorite albums of the 80s: Faith by George Michael from 1987. Tons of hit singles, great videos, and a lot of specific nostalgia all came out of this solo debut. We share all those wonderful memories and break down each track.
Then we get draftin'. Since George Michael was in Wham! first, then became even bigger on his own, we draft our favorite artists who had great solo careers after being in a group (or in some cases even going back and forth).

We also cover music and TV as always as well.
Tune in now to see how it all shook out and if your favorites made the cut. Bonus - you also get to hear our memories of 1988. It was a great time to be 12 years old.

2016: Popstar / Best Fictional Bands and Musical Artists
Pop Culture Yearbook
Andy Samberg is very popular, The Lonely Island took SNL by storm, this movie contains cameos from many of the biggest stars in entertainment; so why was Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping such a box office bomb? We'll hit on that in this episode, but we'll focus more on the brilliance of the writing and the music, which has made this initial bomb now a cult classic that is slowly gaining the audience it deserves.
Connor4Real and the Style Boyz are excellent fictional artists. We'll cap off the episode by drafting our favorite fictional bands and musical artists from TV and Film. So turn it up. This one goes to 11.
