Pop Culture Role Call is a weekly podcast that reviews television and movies from different characters' perspectives. Each week our geek panel (panel of hosts) watches the same TV episode or movie each assigned their own character role. They will only watch scenes that their character is present in, leaving them with only part of the bigger picture.

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 5 episode 4. This week, we break the moon! Oh, the shenanigans sure are strong in season 5. Maybe a little too strong? Regardless, it's convergence time and the group needs to infiltrate the "apocalypse party" of an eccentric dot-com era billionaire who is very much looking forward to making a few more billion off the suffering of innocents. Good thing…
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 5 episode 4. Penny misses the entire episode only to wake up nerf'd?? Plus, Fillory's Dark King may or may not be living up to his reputation. Thanks for listening! Here's the aforementioned Garfield strip for those looking to correct me: https://kotaku.com/garfield-drink-dog-semen-owner-cum-jim-davis-interview-1851783121
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 2 episode 3! This week, Elliot and Alice spend some time working out their Quentin issues-while climbing the Filorian equivalent of Mount Doom and with it's Dark King. Thanks for listening!
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 2 episode 2! This week, Elliot and Margo are still hard at work trying to save their LONG dead Fillorian friends. Hopefully Elliot's box of unethically acquired time mcguffins holds the key. But my guess is shenanigans are more likely than solutions. Thanks for listening!
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 5 episode 1! Yep, Quentin is still dead...no shenanigans. So what is Brian going to do now? Come find out. Meanwhile, Penny (begrudgingly) takes a job teaching young travelers at the newly reopened Brakebills University. Margo and Elliot are back in Fillory trying to piece together the events leading up to the 300 year time jump and the rise of the Dark…
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 wrap-up! Thank you everyone for listening along and a special thank you to everyone who submitted questions. We talk favorite episodes, what to do with Brian now that Quentin is (supposedly) very dead, and of course, we speculate wildly about season 5.
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 13! This week, we say goodbye to season 4, but more importantly, we say goodbye to a dear friend. The plus side? Elliot is back, the brother+sister monster demon things are handled and magic appears to be back on the menu. We were one bad break away from a perfectly executed plan. Welp, onward and upward. Thanks for listening!
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 12. This week, Quentin and Alice finally have "that talk"...you know the one. Meanwhile, Margo's definitely NOT boyfriend Josh is turned into a Werefish after touching some magic nonsense and Monster Elliot finally gets his Monster Sister back! Not cute. Very dangerous. Thanks for listening.
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 epiosde 11! This week, Quentin hops back in time to visit Brakebills South from season 1 in hopes of unlocking the secrets behind a particularly important spell. Meanwhile, Penny, Margo and friends free a librarian trapped in an ancient text, only to be hit with a generational lore dump. But can any of this actually stop the monster? Or, maybe, help it?…
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 10! This week, Margot goes on her own little drug induced musical side-quest out in the desert. Turns out, licking random reptiles can really cause things to spiral quite quickly. Meanwhile, Penny and Quentin and crew finally track down the monster's final target in hopes of getting ahead of a potential world ending afair. Unfortunately, he is a…
Hello and welcome the The Magicians season 4 episode 9! This week, Margo is deposed with a teargul hug rather than a dagger in the back. Count your blessings. Meanwhile, Penny helps Monster Elliot explore repressed memories of his violent past and we all just kind of hope that won't blow up in our faces. Thanks for listening!
Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 8. This week, we really dig into the magical world of dragonic mating practices. Lots of...interesting lore implications and maybe even a salacious illustration or two. Meanwhile, Margo is out with Fen on her quest to save Fillory, but Fen might need some advice regarding (metaphorical) snak eoil salesmen. Thanks for listening!
