PODCAST

Pop My Culture Podcast

Pop My Culture is a weekly-ish podcast hosted by comedic actors and improvisers Cole Stratton and Vanessa Ragland. Join these two entertainment nerds and their special guests as they discuss movies, music, television, celebrity gossip, etc. without all those pesky "serious" topics like politics, religion and the environment. I mean, you can tune into Fresh Air for that. We"ll just tackle the trivial watercooler stuff, ok?
