We're back to get you set for the weekend as Melinda Barkhouse-Ross and Gerald Glassford talk about the latest news and trends in pop culture including the release to theaters of Cocaine Bear. Will this be a surprise hit like M3GAN? Plus they share thoughts on the announcement by Warner Bros for a deal to bring the Lord of the Rings back to the theaters with new movies on the way. What are the best possible scenarios to justify a return to Middle-Earth? All this and Playstation's latest State of Play announcements, the arrival of Mortal Kombat 12 in 2023, the success of Hogwarts Legacy, and how the continuing saga for the Microsoft purchase of Activision/Blizzard has benefitted Nintendo with ten years of Call of Duty. Another fun-filled conversation is on the way right here in the PCC Multiverse!
