About this podcast

One episode about politics, then one episode about pop culture. And repeat. Note: Episodes are published once (a) editing is complete and (b) a reasonable amount of time has elapsed from the publishing of the previous episode. The plan is to have 2.5 to 3 hours of content released per month (with months starting on the 24th), which should be roughly 3 episodes.
