It's the semi drunk Christmas episode we promised! From Cavill, Twitter to just the usual insane tangents about whatever Cricket & Wombat can wrap their brains around at the time! There's a few more expletives in this so be prepared for bleepy goodness

Well, it happened, Cricket in all his wisdom forgot to upload Episode 8. And so if you'd like to understand what it's like to go back in time and listen to completely outdated news and events, as well as completely irrelevant tangents then this episode is for you.

Well, we've recorded 10 episodes since our return after 3 years off. And what better way to celebrate that 10 episode landmark than with more chaos and no acknowledgement of it at all! Finally moved in to Cricket's new space, we discuss our mascot Farrah; James Cameron's Avatar The Way of Water; how they used to be in the old days of POP; cursing celebrities; Twitter (yet again) and also Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin.

POP will now be recording once every month, due to some considerable schedule changes in our lives. Thanks for your continued support and we hope you'll stick around!
We find ourselves this week at SAE in Sydney, on account of Wombat's choice to undertake a Diploma. You would think that being in a building specifically focused on audio and film, we would have some peace and quiet. This is however NOT the case, and we were haunted throughout the podcast by some odd music. And not to mention Cricket cannot seem to use any microphone but his own, and proceeded to talk into the wrong side of the mic.
After an unofficial hiatus, POP is BACK! And boy do we have a lot to talk about.
We're also trying something a little different in regards to our recording... by not being near each other AT ALL.
This could only be a recipe for disaster!
So, Cricket managed to catch the flu a few days ago and therefore, we've had to push back our recording another week.
We'll be back to our regular schedule next week!
