Episode Notes

Well, it's finally here.  Our 2nd Annual Pop Culture Case Study Awards.  As all podcasters seem to think that the Oscars get it wrong, EVERY SINGLE YEAR, I have gathered all of them here to make their own choices!

This year, instead of numerous guests, Mike and I talk about all 7 categories, and the result is that our awards show, unlike many others, is about an hour long.  

We discuss snubs, awards for the major categories, and 2016 as a whole.  Enjoy!

Episode Notes

In this episode, Mike and I discuss Jordan Peele's new film, GET OUT.  We talk about how it works as a comedy, a horror film, and a satire.  Britt also joins me to talk about a true classic, WEST SIDE STORY.  I know, there is no connection here, but last week, we had our awards show, so it's good enough for me!
