Episode notes
We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming. After the craziness of the Oscars on Sunday, we needed to calm down and talk about our favorite Facebook discussions from the official Pop Rocket Facebook group! Guy, Karen, Margaret, and special guest Chris Schleicher are here to talk about traumatizing movie scenes, TV shows that make them cry, and films that are better than the books they’re based on. Plus, perhaps the best Jams so far in the history of Pop Rocket (imho)!
By the way, if you want to hear the panel’s thoughts on the 2017 Oscars ceremony, check out our Bonus episode released earlier this week!
With Guy Branum, Chris Schleicher, Karen Tongson and Margaret Wappler.
That’s My Jam:
Margaret Wappler – Intro – Mica Levi (from “Jackie”)
Karen Tongson – Hello Stranger – Barbara Lewis
Chris Schleicher – Ne Me Quitte Pas – Michel Legrand (from “The Umbrellas of Cherbourg”)
Guy Branum – Someone in the Crowd – Justin Hurwitz (from “La La Land”)
Each week we’ll add everyone’s jams to this handy Spotify playlist.
You can let us know what you think of Pop Rocket and suggest topics in our Facebook group or via @PopRocket on Twitter.
Produced by Christian Dueñas and Kara Hartfor MaximumFun.org.
