By: Matt Tamanini Jan. 13, 2016
Happy New Year Pop Culture Aficionados! To mark the start of 2016, "Some Like it Pop" is making the move to becoming a real(ish) podcast. We have submitted our first episode to iTunes, and once approved, you will be able to subscribe via iTunes!
In the meantime, you can listen to our newest episode here, or you can download it below! Below, find notes and links to everything we talk about in the episode:
Jenn Saw HAMILTON
Jenn, who had become obsessed with HAMILTON in the few short months since the cast recording was released, saw the show on her trip back east. We discuss if the show lived up to her lofty expectations.
What We Binged/Saw Over our Christmas Vacations
We discuss STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS, The HATEFUL EIGHT, MOZART IN THE JUNGLE, HOMELAND, MAKING A MURDERER, MARVEL'S AGENT CARTER, THE PEOPLE VS. O.J. SIMPSON, and HOUSE OF CARDS.
Oscar Nomination Predictions
We share our hopes, dreams, and fears for Thursday's Oscar nominations, and we both admit that we just don't really get what's so great about CAROL.
We discuss the simplicity of SPOTLIGHT, the best image in MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, Leonardo DiCaprio's odds to win, why we don't get CAROL, THE DANISH GIRL, or SICARIO, how delightful Saoirse Ronan is in BROOKLYN, and how much we want Brie Larson to win for ROOM.
Shows Premiering in January and February
We chat MERCY STREET, THE X-FILES, 11/22/63, NEW GIRL, IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA, SHAMELESS, YOUNGER, SCHITT'S CREEK, BETTER CALL SAUL, VINYL, ANGEL FROM HELL, and SUPERSTORE.
