POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

A year ago today, my first baby was born. What a ride it was. And how lovely it feels to still hear from friends and colleagues who have spotted WANNABE out in the wild at the airport or their favorite local bookstore, as well as from random strangers on the internet who are picking it up for the first time and loving it. That makes me happy. Thank you to everyone who’s shown support in big and small ways. I’m so very grateful. ❤️🫶🏾 by @aha88

What the hell is up with Michael Jackson’s legacy???

This is what I’ve been asking myself for quite some time now, in the run up to the release of MICHAEL, a friction-free, morally bankrupt biopic that didn’t need to exist. I attempted to get at some answers in a special Pop Culture Happy Hour episode looking back on how music videos and previous screen dramatizations helped shape his ever-evolving narrative. It seems like every few years Jackson’s appeal dims a little or reanimates fiercely, based on where the culture’s at or what the robust estate has planned. Listen now, link in bio. 🔗 by @aha88

Every year people complain about so-called Oscar snubs, but what if there was a way to address that?⁠

As with every year, there are the lists I have to put together for the day job (by early Dec.) and then there are the ones I do for myself, cultivated until the very last day of the year. Fave new movies, personal discoveries, and TV. It’s been a helluva good year for pop culture, everything else considering.

Now, as I also do every year, off to go watch WHEN HARRY MET SALLY for the ten thousandth time. K I love you buh-bye, 2025. by @aha88

On today’s episode, Max Martin is the biggest pop producer of all time, having crafted hits across three decades for everyone from Britney and Backstreet Boys to Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, The Weeknd, Ariana Grande and so many more. He recently re-teamed with Taylor for her 12th album, The Life of Showgirl, a record that many believe didn’t reflect his best work but also made us wonder: What is?

Pop Pantheon favs @aha88, @themollyzone, and @popsamcam return for a roundtable with DJ Louie to break down the secret sauce to Max’s 30 years of in the biz, before each sharing their top 5 Max songs of all time.
