Could be good
The hosts come off a little pretentious. Sorry. I wanted to love it, but on the first episode I listened to, they trashed most popular shows and movies from 2020 and gave huge props to shows that were very specific in taste that most people have probably not watched. I guess it pairs well with classic CBC radio listeners, but I had hopes it would be entertaining and provide me with interesting pop (popular) shows to check out. I didn’t leave feeling that way at all. Will give another episode a try, but I’m not feeling it will do more than “Here’s this cool thing I think I sound cool for watching, you’ll want to watch, but you’ll hate it and me for suggesting it and that’s so good.”

Love this show!!! The three hosts will become your four Bffs. Great coverage and discussions on all pop culture topics. Never boring. Always learn something. As a Canadian expat in U.K., love feeling like I’m back in Toronto.

It’s hard to listen to news podcasts these days, and listening to Pop Chat has reinvigorated my podcast love. I...Read full review »
