Hello Pop Culture Sommeliers! In this episode of BroadwayWorld's "Some Like it Pop" podcast, after Jenn explains why she regularly visits a sensory deprivation chamber, we dive into all things TV and film.

90s Flashback Dramas

We review and discuss AMERICAN CRIME STORY: THE PEOPLE VS. OJ SIMPSON and the return of THE X-FILES.

Louis C.K. Did What?

Jenn and I chat about Louis C.K.'s wonderfully out-of-the-box surprise series, HORACE & PETE, and why it is so different from everything else on TV today.

Is GREASE the Word?

Despite Jenn's objections to the material, we discuss (and disagree on) the recent GREASE: LIVE broadcast.

Movie and Documentary Reviews

I review the February films HAIL, CAESAR! and DEADPOOL, and Jenn checks in on Oscar nominated documentaries CARTEL LAND and WHAT HAPPENED, MISS SIMONE?

Show and Tell

Jenn shares a clip from James Corden's "Carpool Karaoke," where the Tony-winner chats, sings, and geeks-out with Adele.


I then revel in the wonderfulness that is Kristen Bell as I share a clip of her and her husband, Dax Shepard, lip-syncing to "Africa" by Toto, while on a safari in Africa.
