The Popcast is the Denzel Washington of podcasts: solid, dependable, hard-working and charmingly humorous. More specifically, it is a weekly conversation between Knox McCoy and Jamie Golden about all things pop culture. Frequently we discuss silly celebrities, inexplicable trends, and the most conversation-worthy TV shows and movies.
Just like any great creative pair, Knox and Jamie met on the Internet. Learn more about their story by listening to Episode 224 and Episode 311 about The Business of The Popcast.
