In this final episode, Niki and Emily say goodbye to PopCorner and reminisce on some of their favorite moments both in the podcasting booth and as members of Velocity. Who knew a podcast where two people talk about their niche pop culture interests could bloom such a loving friendship and be such a fulfilling creative outlet. Thank you to everyone who has listened to us chat the past two years! Goodbye! …for now….

For the first episode of season 4, Niki and Emily sing their hearts out about Rock Band and Guitar Hero. The unique controllers, extensive song libraries and iconic artwork fuel nostalgia for millions.

For this very special episode, Niki and Emily are joined by guests Ali and Salem to discuss parasocial relationships. They’re more common than you think, but many are taking it too far. These fans are spilling their guts during meet and greets, but these tortured poets are fed up, celebrities are people too.

It’s the first episode back for PopCorner’s third season and the third time’s a charm! Niki and Emily welcome in this new era by discussing the ever-changing music industry. Whether it’s the insanity of ticket buying, impossible to please fans or the seemingly irrelevant awards shows, music as we know it is constantly transforming.

For the last episode of season 2, as well as the Spring 2024 semester, Niki and Emily discuss some key moments within the first full year of Velocity magazine. What started as a random idea in class, turned to weekly zoom meetings and has now become an online publication that has just wrapped up their first ever print issue.

From the parking lot to the food court, Niki and Emily walk through the fun that is the mall! For decades, this classic teen hangout spot has created endless memories. But will they still be here in the coming years? Sit down, grab some pretzel bites and slurpee, and lets go to the mall!

To welcome in the spring 2024 semester, Niki and Emily REWIND to what we had on repeat all of 2023. Tune in to see how many minutes we spent listening to our favs. We are okay… we promise.

Niki and Emily wrap up the fall 2023 semester with something that has been an important part of their lives since birth: toys! You’re never too old to sleep with a plushie, or carry around a Calico Critter. Tune in to hear what pieces of plastic and fluff are bringing us the most joy.

Male directors throughout the years have made very polarizing films, all while being polarizing themselves, and not always for the right reasons. In this episode, Niki and Emily discuss a little show named “Euphoria,” along with its male director Sam Levinson. Through every controversy he and his show face, we really wish he was joking…

Welcome back to PopCorner! We’re starting our second season and are part of a brand new publication. What better way to celebrate these new beginnings than with an opportunity to get to know us better?
In today’s episode, we go as in depth as humans can possibly go, by taking BuzzFeed quizzes. If you have ever wanted to know what type of sandwich we are, you don’t want to miss our return.
