Welcome to Hop Culture! Hey everybody! We’re the Hopkin Sisters: Claire, Grace, Anne, and Tess. Four sisters living in different time zones, recapping our lives, giving each other unsolicited advice, and hopefully giving you a laugh in the process. Who knows, if you stick around, we might even touch on something substantial along the way.
Not all heroes wear capes - some just pay for the TV streaming accounts. In this episode, we shine a very unserious spotlight on the real MVPs of everyday life: eldest daughters holding households together since the dawn of time, the one friend who keeps the group chat alive, and more. These overlooked legends deserve a round of applause or at least a mention on Hop Culture.

In this episode, we dive into The Altar - a new spinoff of Provo's Most Eligible that follows singles as they date, get engaged, and (hopefully) make it to the altar, all in one day. We break down the highs, lows, and hilariously familiar stereotypes of dating in Provo, from whirlwind romances to awkward first dates. Whether you've lived it, witnessed it, or just love reality dating chaos, this one's for you.
Today we’re playing This or That on one of our favorite topics: grocery shopping! Costco or Sam’s? Self-check or checker? We’re debating the real grocery store questions in this week’s episode of Hop Culture!

This week, we're diving into the world of whimsy—what it means, why it charms us, and when it maybe crosses the line into cringe. Inspired by a viral TikTok asking people to share their most whimsical habits, we chat about everything from fairy houses to teacup gardens, and play a round of “Love It or Lose It” featuring unicorns, Luna Lovegood, and a healthy dose of twee. Whether you're a full-time whimsical girlie or just whimsy-c...

If you met your younger self, what would you say? In this episode, we tackle this viral question—but, of course, with our signature tongue-in-cheek twist.

Have you ever heard of the fun scale? We hadn’t either! It’s a way of categorizing experiences and deciding whether to repeat them. You’d be surprised how much discord the fun scale caused us, but in the end we look back on this episode fondly! You could say it was a type 2 experience!

Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders takes you back to 1983, when two teenagers were found murdered, execution-style, on a quiet Texas hill.
