She makes us watch a few episodes of Alias and the movie 13 Going On 30, and then we discuss what makes JGar so dang likable. Also Tom gives some dramatic, heartfelt speeches that may not be relevant to the topic at hand. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

An Arnold Schwarzenegger Primer

In this episode, we recap our fabulous night on Broadway, seeing the famous musical Spider-Man Turn Off The Dark. Because we spent actual money on tickets and went to Times Square during the busiest time of year on a Saturday night to watch a troubled musical about a superhero. Oh and we also read the tell-all book about the musical, so we talk about that a bunch. This week's episode is sponsored by Audible.

Top Two, Bottom Two

This week on Pop Everything, Tim responds to critics that complain that he seems to hate everything by talking about something he loves: the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. Of course, he kind of talks about it in a cranky way, imploring fellow fans to respect the wishes of the strip's creator and just let the work speak for itself. We discuss a recent book and documentary about the strip made by fans who seemingly miss the point, and compare Calvin and Hobbes fans to that jerk at the office that tells you that you NEED to watch The Wire because it will like, totally change your life. Also, Tom feels burned by a Kickstarter project he donated to and threatens to smack the sourpuss right off Tim's face. This week's episode is sponsored by Audible.

Episode 7 Calvin And Hobbes Is NOT The Wire (Nov. 28, 2013)

Tom talks about Arrow again and how popular it is in Hungary, also the newish Wolverine movie and how X-Men Origins: Wolverine being leaked ruined the movie for everyone. We also discuss the overall idea of movies being planned around Comic-Con, and how much better entertainment would be if the internet didn’t exist. This leads into the time Tom almost getting to play Super Mario 3 early, how everyone saw Super Mario 3 for the first time in The Wizard, and the new Doctor Who: Eighth Doctor mobisode. Then we get into the meat and potatoes of the episode: the idea that everyone on the internet is a Hollywood insider now, Larry David, Dan Harmon, Glen & Les Charles and the myth of the irreplaceable show runner.

New Sudser Skein Does Boffo At B.O. Down Infopike

This week Tom talks about his favorite TV show, Arrow, which Tim assumes is about The Green Lantern, but apparently is about The Green Arrow, which is an entirely different guy. Listen as Tom makes his case that a superhero television show can actually be entertaining, and contrasts it with the less successful Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Then we talk about our favorite album opening lines in a new installment of "Top 2, Bottom 2" and discuss how the MTV VMAs are no longer relevant to us. We also talk about how Supergrass could have been the best band ever if only they had known when to stop making albums and Tom gets mad that Tim doesn't understand all the superhero references that his favorite rapper makes.

Episode 5 Hey Old Idiot, It's Not For You (Nov. 14, 2013)

Guess what everybody? A movie based on a comic book character is coming out this week! A movie like this comes out but 7 or 8 times a year, so to pay tribute, Tim and Tom discuss the new Thor movie and its relation to the TV show Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. We also discuss the best 3D movies we've seen and Tim tries to rally everyone to support non-comic book movies. [NO SPOILERS, except for a reference to the end of The Sixth Sense] Then at 21:40, we try to discuss all the latest in Kanye news, including a discussion of how much one should be willing to pay to see him in concert, but it mostly devolves into an argument about the merits of Kim Kardashian as a person.

Episode 4 Thank God It's Thorsday (Nov. 7, 2013)

Do you like hearing two grown men talk about reality shows starring children, video games based on comic book characters and being scared by movies? You're in luck! This week we start off discussing Masterchef Junior, the reality show that has restored Tim's faith in reality shows (kinda). Then at 24:35 we talk about the video game Batman: Arkham Origins, and it dawns on Tom that maybe he has been getting fleeced by the video game industry. Starting at 37:05 we discuss the new Arcade Fire album, Reflektor and Tim floats a possible conspiracy theory while Tom just wants to talk about Hey Dude, a Nickelodeon show from the 90s. Finally, at 50:30 we debut a new segment "Top 2/Bottom 2" and discuss our 2 favorite horror movies, just in time for the week after Halloween. Email us at popeverything@gmail.com!
