PCA 013 Things we are Thankful for in Pop Culture

 
In this episode we celebrate Thanksgiving by naming the things we are most thankful for in pop culture.
We of course must start that conversation with a buzzfeed quiz that lets us know with which TV family we should spend Thanksgiving. 
We also include a piece of Kanye West's "Ultralight Beams" from the Life of Pablo and short clip of the podcast More Perfect. That clip is from the episode  "Object Anyway".

PCA 012 Overrated and Underrated Things

It’s election day. You could watch people get mad at each other on
the news and social media all day. Or you can listen to us good
naturedly disagree about things that both do and don’t matter.
This seems more fun.
