Pop Culture Happy Hour

I love this podcast and have been following for years. But I think NPR cares about DEI and every time any of the hosts and guest hosts refers to the pandemic in the past tense (it’s not over, there is a surge, the global emergency was declared over but not the pandemic), you exclude and gaslight the disabled and vulnerable community that must care about the ongoing pandemic b/c if not it can cost lives or create further disability. And we are big podcast listeners! Marginalized communities are especially negatively impacted by pandemic denialism & minimization. Please change course.

Glen and Danielle are magic together. More of them asa duo, please.

You’re praise of TD S04 says everything I need to know about your taste in pop culture. If you’re looking for a dark mystery with great writing and female leads, watch Sharp Objects or Mare of East town instead. Goodbye, won’t miss your podcasts.

Smart, funny, great hosts, but the show just isn’t as fun as it used to be. Almost like they are taking such care not to offend the makers of the movies and shows, there is just not as much of a sense of fun.
