March Pop Culture Round Up

03.30.2018 by Elizabeth // Leave a Comment

March Pop Culture Round UpMarch Madness is back and I am miraculously in first place in my family bracket. For the moment (come ON Villanova!) I’m not a sports fan but for 3 weeks every March I am a HUGE college basketball fan. My friend Jen talks all the time about the importance of sports, and I agree that it’s great for networking and as a conversation starter. How’s your bracket doing? Besides March Madness I’m doing my best to stay up on my pop culture, here’s  a few of my recent favorites…

Reading

I finished Red Clocks and I LOVED it. I talked about it last month too but man was it fantastic…

I was super sad to hear that Kelly Thompson’s Hawkeye comic series was coming to a close. I finished it up last week when we had some sunshine and it did not disappoint. It was funny and snarky and action packed and I now think I’ll read every comic Kelly Thompson writes. You should check her out too!

A few months back I read about Misfit City a comic from the writer of 10 Things I Hate About You and Legally Blonde. Yup. I was delighted that the comic takes place in a fictional version of Astoria, Oregon and has some great pop culture and snark to it. Plus a dog! I can’t wait to see where volume 2 goes…

Listening

I downloaded Chris Stapleton’s From a Room: Volume 2 a few months ago (I think when he was on SNL) and realized I hadn’t downloaded Volume 1. I fixed that a few weeks ago and Chris Stapleton is back on heavy rotation around here.

As for podcasts, the usual political pod suspects are still there. The Late Night with Seth Meyers podcast live from SXSW with Amber Ruffin & Jenny Hagel interviewed by Joy Reid was FABULOUS and worth a listen. Also, if you missed the Bill Hader interview and loved his Stefan sketch on SNL, make sure to listen!

I’m also enjoying The Daily Show: Ears Edition as another political podcast spot with some great interviews. He had the Parkland students on right before the March for our Lives and it was great…

Watching

I started watching the Wild Wild Country documentary with my brother and sister in law when I was in Spokane this past weekend. It’s really fantastic. Fun fact – I went to high school in Bend and was involved with Young Life which is the organization that now owns the camp that was the Rajneesh Purim. I helped to clean up the camp and get it ready for kids when I was in high school so know the property pretty well. It is CRAZY to see it back in the early 80’s when it was Rajneesh Purim. It’s also a fantastic story about local politics, my other favorite hobby these days.

I saw Black Panther again with my husband who said it’s his favorite super hero movie now. I’d agree. I still haven’t seen A Wrinkle in Time (don’t worry, I’m more disappointed in myself than you are in me) but have tickets to see Ready Player One this weekend. I can’t WAIT!

I am LOVING this season of Jane the Virgin and while I don’t usually love a cancer scare story, they’ve handled it well I think. Brooklyn 99 has returned and it’s SO DANG GOOD. And I continue to love this season of UnREAL…

My very favorite show The Americans returns this week and I am so happy it’s back and so sad it’s the final season. But as I tweeted a week ago, I can’t WAIT for the reboot to see what the Jennings are up to in 2014…

I’m anxiously awaiting the arrival of my copy of A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo thanks to Last Week Tonight’s fantastic story earlier this month.
