2007: The Simpsons Movie / Top Simpsons Episodes
Pop Culture Yearbook
06/19/23 • 71 min
After years of rumors and discussion, The Simpsons was finally turned into a movie in 2007. Did it meet the high expectations? Does it have the spirit of the show still in tact? We break down the movie and whether it lived up to the hype.
More importantly, though, are our memories of the series. So we finish things up by drafting our top five favorite episodes. This one is a fun look back. Don't have a cow, man, and tune in now! Cowabunga dude! Woo hoo!

R.E.M. Revisited: A Collaboration with Dave Zalatoris from the Beer in Front Podcast
Pop Culture Yearbook
06/03/24 • 47 min
Several episodes back we discussed R.E.M.'s Automatic for the People. Look back if you missed it! But that episode has led to further R.E.M. discussion with the great Dave Zalatoris from the Beer in Front Podcast. We are collaborating this week to bring you not one, but two new R.E.M.-centered episodes. You can hear about the back half of the catalog on his show in a couple days.
This episode focuses on everything from Chronic Town though the big breakthrough Out of Time. We share our stories of falling in love with the band and then draft our favorite songs from this time period. Enjoy!

Stuff We've Missed: George Michael - Faith / Top Solo Artists who Came from Groups
Pop Culture Yearbook
07/15/24 • 67 min
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).

2007: Superbad / Top Comedies 2000-2009
Pop Culture Yearbook
06/26/23 • 56 min
We're closing out 2007 with the high school classic Superbad. This small budget movie made big money with many stars who are still big today: Jonah Hill, Michael Cera, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Seth Rogen, Bill Hader, and Emma Stone were all in the early stages of their careers at the time. How does it hold up? How controversial will Brad be on this one?
Superbad was just one of many comedies to explode through the 2000s. So we draft our favorites, including Wedding Crashers, Step Brothers, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Borat, and more. This is a fun list with no shortage of choices. Listen now!

1993: Music of 1993 with Brian Colburn
Pop Culture Yearbook
05/01/23 • 90 min
1993 was a spectacular year for music, especially if you were in high school like the hosts of this show. So much great music and so many great memories happened at this time. To commemorate it, we're bringing in a special guest: Brian Colburn from the My Weekly Mixtape and Playlist Wars podcasts. His extensive knowledge only adds to the fun.
We talk about our memories of the year, then start drafting. First, we draft our top five albums of 1993. Next, we draft our top 5 songs of 1993. We cover a lot of ground, but there's even more out there. Listen to see if your favorites make the cut or to rediscover something you may have even forgotten.

Pop Culture Yearbook
04/03/23 • 52 min
After our big month last month, we're getting back to basics. The next year up is 1988. This was a great year in pop culture, but especially in movies. So many of our favorites came out in 1988: The Naked Gun, A Fish Called Wanda, Bull Durham, Big, Beetlejuice, and Coming to America just to name a few! So the movie draft is especially competitive. 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.

Spooktacular Series: Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
Pop Culture Yearbook
10/31/24 • 53 min
Our second Spooktacular show centers on the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Giff chose this movie as he considers it the original slasher film. Is it the greatest horror movie of all-time? Is it the worst? How does it compare the big 80's slashers? Our opinions are all over the board on this one.
After answering those questions and more, we break down the horror genre into 8 sub-genres. It turns out this was kind of a fascinating way of looking at things. We discuss our favorite and least favorite categories and name drop many many movies we consider examples of each category. Listen along if you dare...
