Two hundred episodes. A legendary voice. And a look toward the future.

In this milestone episode, Pop Culture Pastor celebrates its 200th journey around the fandom sun with a little help from the incomparable Malcolm McDowell, who kicks things off with a cinematic introduction worthy of the occasion.

Dave and Cody dig into what’s next for pop culture itself — from the rise of AI actors and streaming burnout to reboot fatigue and the evolution of fandom. Then the guys turn the conversation inward, opening up about the future of the podcast, their hopes for the community, and how listeners can shape the next 200 episodes.

Finally, a supersized edition of The Lobby answers listener questions that range from thoughtful to downright hilarious — with plenty of surprises, callbacks, and a few emotional moments in between.

Featuring:
🎤 The voice of Malcolm McDowell(!)
💬 A hopeful look at the future of storytelling
🙌 A celebration of fans, friendship, and 200 episodes of shared geekery

“Stories brought us here. Stories will take us further.”
