Pop Culture Continuum

John Elliott and Patrick Ricciardi

John and Pat have no experience and are uniquely unqualified to discuss Pop Culture. Yet, week after week they get together to take one piece of Pop Culture from history, and compare it to something more modern. Never offering insight, but often finding new ways to insult.

    Episode 332: Ione Sky vs. SNL

    We thought it would be fun to keep the topics we discussed on this episode a mystery. If you’re some genius Sherlock Holmes type, you may discover clues in the title.

    Episode 330: Movie Trailers

    John & Pat watch and discuss trailers both for classic and upcoming movies. Which you prefer will depend on your tolerance for constant narration extra-long scenes, but you can rest assured they use the same corny formula no matter the era!

    Episode 329: It’s a Wonderful Life vs. Love Actually
