Taylor Swift's The Tortured Poets Department
Taylor Swift dropped an epic new album that spans two hours — and two high-profile breakups. The Tortured Poets Department delves deeply into two of the singer's recent relationships — one with the English actor Joe Alwyn and the other with Matty Healy, who's the lead singer of The 1975. And while Taylor Swift indulges in a few beefs on this record, the target she returns to most often is herself.

Fallout And What's Making Us Happy
The new show Fallout is based on a hugely successful video game series known for its sardonic, very dark comedic sensibility, and its violence. It's set in the game's post-apocalyptic world – an America divided into factions wrestling for control of an irradiated wasteland. When the hopeful Lucy (Ella Purnell) steps out of the comfortable life she's known in an underground vault, the world she's confronted with is harsh, brutal, merciless – and kinda funny.

X-Men '97
For millions of kids, the popular 1990s X-Men animated series served as a gateway drug into the world of the X-Men and comics in general. Now, the new Disney+ series X-Men '97 picks up right where the original ended. But changes are also taking place: secrets get revealed, the team roster gets shuffled, and characters meet shocking fates. What hasn't changed is everything fans expect from the X-Men: big fights, big powers, and lots of mutant melodrama.

Reseñas de clientes
For a good time, listen
This is a very entertaining round table, and they usually pick really popular shows, films or cultural phenomena. You'll never feel out of the conversation.
I also think the hosts have great chemistry and they are always good pals. I cannot choose a favorite: Linda is always sharp and keeps the flow of the discussion going, Steven is so good natured, and Glenn is always fun and sarcastic but he's not snarky.
I went through all of their old episodes when I first discovered them. Hours and hours of fun during my long commute.
FINALLY some intelligent pop culture show
They go deep into things that gossip and showbiz shows only bicker about
Excelente podcast
Súper divertido. Lo mejor en pop culture.
