Pop Culture Roundup

Join Jonah, Jaden, and special guest/resident Sonic expert Ty Pallomino as they review “Sonic the Hedgehog 3”!

This week on the Pop Culture Roundup, we bring back beloved guest Ryder Vance as we give our take on the new Superman trailer and the state of the new DCU. Not only that, but we look at the downfall of the Sony Spider-Verse with their latest flop, Kraven the Hunter. Cause let's be real, Sony has as much of a chance to make a great Spider-Man villain spinoff movie as Shameik Moore has with Hailee Steinfeld… too soon?

*Two human-like figures emerge from cryo-sleep* “*GASP* What year is it?” said one of them “*COUGH* are we too late?” said the other Little did they know, it was all a dream created by none other than the Poop Fairy. “Arise, my creatures” said the odorous being “I have but one more task for you to do” “No…” said one of the human's weakly “Anything but that… not again” “Ah, but you must. You must create another draft, and another, and another. For all eternity, you must draft” “You're a MONSTER!” said the other human as he makes a break for the door; will he finally be free? No. They will never be free. As long as the Poop Fairy lives, the two boys will draft. Forever. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/popculturerounduppodcast/support
