The Popped crew remember their fathers who all passed within the last two years. They reminisce on their fathers favorite, movies, television shows and music relating how their fathers either encouraged or influenced their own choices in pop culture.

This show is the end-result of a long hiatus due to these deaths and a complete meltdown of Daniel's computer. Now that the computer is fixed, the Popped crew will resume their show but wanted to honor their fathers and the Popped viewers with an episode that explains their recent absence. 

So, sit back, grab some corn and get ready for an unusually heartfelt episode of Popped.

Daniel speaks to the Vice President of Marketting for Harmony Gold, Kevin McKeever about the 1985 hit anime series Robotech. Kevin covers the history of Robotech as well as that of Frank Aghrama and Carl Macek. Daniel and Kevin discuss the many products and projects that have been promised for years by Harmony Gold with Kevin welcoming fan question and criticism equally. 

It's an eye opening look into the world of ROBOTECH through the eyes of a a Marketting Executive. Many fans have reached a point of exhaustion with what they perceive as endless excuses and unfulfilled promises by Harmony Gold and they view Kevin as the front-man for a company that has not delivered on much of what it's promised. Kevin does a good job of covering his bases here and gives somewhat of a timeline for when things can be expected to happen. That said, this interview happened during the SAG-AFTRA strikes so there is some open-endedness to certain projects many of us have waited for news on.

Put on your helmet, power up your Veritech, and get ready to kick Zendtraedi butt ... just make sure you have your radio tuned to our braodcast as we talk about ROBOTECH!

Daniel, Ben and Tanya discuss the seminal Sci-Fi horror Classic “Aliens” 1986, Directed by James Cameron. This successful sequel film followed the lone survivor of the Nostromo Ripley, played by the extremely talented Sigourney Weaver. 
The gang talk about how the ensemble crew lead to a palatable storyline and the dramatic tension was ramped to extreme levels by the story pacing, ambience, and uniqueness of the aliens themselves. 

Join us as we take a drop ship into Hadley’s Hope to find out what happened to the settlers on LV-426 but you’d better hang on “were in for some chop”. It could get rough but if we can survive it, we’ll be “in the pipe, five by five.”
