Ka-Pow the Pop Cultured Podcast #108 Top Ten Video Games part 1
July 03, 2018 19:13 - 1 hour - 39.9 MBIt has been too long since our last Top Ten episode, so we picked a topic a little bit out of left field from our normal conversations and are counting down our Top Ten Video Games. Most of us are what you would call "casual gamers" at best, so this isn't a comprehensive list of critical darlings and all-time greats. Instead, these are the games we had the best time playing with a room full of friends or the childhood favorites that always hit our nostalgia triggers. From Atari to Xbox, a...

Ka-Pow the Pop Cultured Podcast #86
January 04, 2018 18:35 - 1 hour - 42.1 MBKa-Pow the Pop Cultured Podcast wraps up the year with a brand new episode, where Michael regales us with a story about being attacked by an elderly dog and we copyright the word "podcast." There's also some stuff about another underwhelming finale for "The Walking Dead," a nostalgia-fueled documentary on Netflix, a slew of new comic book releases and a peek under the mask of "Riverdale's" Black Hood killer, but really, it's all a bit anticlimactic after the geriatric dog stuff.

But after already doing a full episode, then 45 minutes of political debate, a case of beer, some cold fish and a freezer full of delicious Push 'Ems, it was almost 2 AM by the time we called it quits and the results are a bit... let's say... unhinged. But we do our sleep-deprived best to cover season 2, episodes #6-8, "Death Proof," "Tales from the Darkside" and "House of the ...
