The Pop Cult EX-perience
A tale as old as time itself. The classic story of boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy and girl start a pop culture podcast together 20 some odd years later.
Welcome to the Pop Cult Ex-perience brought to you by Karen Giffin and Tyler Smith. Two former flames, once inseparable, now find themselves separated by 6000 miles and a couple of decades. Still friends, with a similar love for all things pop culture and a similar want to share our love of these things with y'all. We talk movies, TV, gaming, comics, books, music and any other manner of things that we fancy. Join us for our weekly podcasts to hear about news, musings, commentary, reviews and upcoming fun things in the world of entertainment. We will also be doing bonus episodes with themed content and the occasional live stream for extra fun. Follow us on Twitter (@PopCultExP) and Instagram (@popcultexp) We want to hear your thoughts and ideas too. Feel free to comment on posts or DM us any time.

Our Chat With Charlie
In this extra special episode of the podcast, we got the chance to interview the charismatic and charming Charlie Kerr, lead singer of Hotel Mira, who are currently in the last legs of a cross-Canada tour in support of their new album, “I Am Not Myself”. A tour that finishes up right here in Ottawa at The SAW Gallery on Feb 18th.
We talk to Charlie about some highlights and awesome moments from the tour, the new album, with its wonderful blend of catchy beats and introspective lyrics, and the connection people make through music and other mediums.
We even take some time to delve into some pop culture shenanigans with Charlie talking about unapologetic love of cinema and other arts, the nonsense of toxic fandom, and he takes us behind the scenes on a few of the tv sets he’s had the pleasure of working on.
