In this weeks episode of Pop Culture Weekly, prepare to be entertained as Kyle McMahon chats with Ellie Kemper and Zach Cherry, the dynamic duo who bring their delightful personalities to this beloved competition.

Don't miss this hilarious conversation with two of the industry's most engaging actors.

Then Kyle talks to Gan Golan and Alan Jenkins, the brilliant minds behind the provocative graphic novel, 1/6 - What If The Attack On the U.S. Capitol Succeeded?. They explore the chilling question: what if the attack on the US Capitol on January 6th succeeded? Listen in as we discuss their motivations for creating this gripping story, the importance of preserving democracy, and the responsibilities of art and culture in addressing contemporary issues. You'll be left pondering the frightening possibilities that lie ahead if we don't take action.

Finally, let's get nostalgic as we explore the tradition of comics as a form of social commentary. From the origins of iconic characters like Superman and Captain America to the metaphorical representation of social issues through Spider-Man and the Hulk, we examine the power of art and storytelling in shaping our world. Join us for this meaningful conversation and discover how our favorite heroes have reflected societal concerns throughout history.
