Disney's annual D23 Expo was last Saturday and on this episode of Pop! Pop! the Pop Culture Podcast the LA Nerd and Taylor break it down! Spoilers: there's a shit ton of Star Wars news!
Were you hoping that Michael Shannon would be in Batman Five Superman even though Zod died? Were you also hoping that he'd be part dolphin? Well you're in luck! Tune in to find out what the hell that means... Other high points are us trash talking Ronda Rousey's acting skills (please don't kill us), trash talking Colin Trevorrow's directing skills (not afraid of you, Colin!), getting wasted at Disneyland's future Star Wars theme park and how the #1 poster artist of all time says that The Force Awakens is the best Star Wars movie ever made!

In a very special mid-week episode of Pop! Pop! the Pop Culture Podcast! the LA Nerd and Taylor tear Fantastic 4 a new one... Like, they rip on it hard; they smear this movie's reputation harder than a high school cheerleader with a slam book. The opinions/reviews on this movie were so low it warranted a whole episode dedicated to dissecting its crappiness before next week's episode.
But that's not all! What makes this episode even more special is that Pop! Pop! now has a theme song! Many thanks to Mister Mitchell for his musical talents and his time put into helping out. Check out his website for all things music & audio related: Mister-Mitchell.com.

This week on Episode IV: a new Pop! (The 4th episode of Pop! Pop! the Pop Culture Podcast) The LA Nerd and Taylor welcome their very first guest! Woo! Nicolette Gonzalez joins us for NATIONAL IPA DAY! and things get a little tipsy. Apparently Lexus has made a real life hover board (unlike that hack Tony Hawk) and it's not very impressive! Wah-wah. Joel geeks out all by his lonesome about the return of Prison Break for a 10-episode return to Fox, everyone gets excited about the idea of a Marvel produced X-Men television show that would be in the same vein as Daredevil, and we talk about the HD release of the Deadpool trailer!
We have to apologize though, there wasn't any Batman five Superman news this week, maybe next time you guys!
