Phil subjects Dylan to a “blind react” of the K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack, and the two have a conversation about expanding their worldviews and helping their kids connect to other cultures. A quiz is popped, a secret family is revealed (or is it?), and we pop a record onto the good sound system in the basement- tune in, it’s gonna be golden!
If you are a listener, come in.If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,A parent, a friend, a J.K Rowling supporter,Wait. Screw that. We support trans rights.If you’re a defender, come sit by our fire.For we have some parental tales to spin.Come in!Come in!
Grab your towel and stick out that thumb, Dylan and Phil are taking a cue from Douglas Adams and reflecting on life, their kids’ expanding view of the universe, and what it all means. Learn how, in Evanston, trees (much like petunias) just fall from the sky. Be in awe as the kids befriend the most alien creatures Museum Campus has to offer. And reflect on the deep, philosophical questions only a 6 year old could ask. And whatever you do- DON’T PANIC!
How has Sing, a movie that neither Dylan nor Phil like, changed Dylan’s household? How can one movie cause one child to fall in love with Elton John, playing music, and The Muppets? You’ll have to listen to find out!
Lordy, Lordy, HOPC’s 40!... th episode! Huzzah! To celebrate, Dylan and Phil took their families out to the movies together. It was Dylan and Mal’s first time seeing A Minecraft Movie, and Phil and Rebel’s third. Pop in those earbuds and jop into the Overworld! We’ve got jumbo sized pop quizzes, a primer on MInecraft in its many varied forms, an examination of Phil and Dylan’s childhood Jack Black experience vs their kids current one, and so much more!
Dylan and Phil reminisce about the early 1990’s game show Legends of the Hidden Temple, which they’ve been sharing with their own kids lately. Walk down the steps of knowledge and clutch tight to your pendant of life- you never know where a Temple Guard might be lurking in this episode.
Gotta go fast! Dylan and Phil FINALLY get out to see a movie together with their kids, and it couldn’t have been a better choice. We share our thoughts on the latest addition to the Sonic The Hedgehog movie franchise, relive our kid’s birthday parties, and engage in the deadliest game of Last Tag this side of the Mississippi.
Season finale already? Wow, what a decade this year has been. You deserve a treat! It’s an extra-length special holiday episode of Hop On Pop Culture! Phil and Dylan debate the ethics of making their kids believe in Santa Clause, make some recommendations for board games for the family, and expose their children to violence and larceny via the Christmas classics Home Alone, and The Grinch.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and feelings at the dinner table are guaranteed to be running HIGH this year. Why not give yourself an emotional vocabulary and a respite with a family movie night? Dylan and Phil set off from Friendship Island to explore Inside Out 1 & 2, a couple of their kids' favorites.
With Halloween on the horizon, we’re looking for age appropriate horror for our kiddos. Luckily R.L. Stine is a prolific author of young reader horror, and now we get to share his work with ours! Take a nostalgic stroll through the Scholastic Book Fair of Horror as we talk about Goosebumps books, TV adaptations, and movies. Listener beware, you’re in for a scare!
