Synopsis
Oddly Specific Pop was born out of the hundredths of conversations we had about very specific topics in pop culture. From movies, tv shows, music, and theater. If you like the sometimes coherent ramblings of two friends who love to talk about things like “Does Jim Halpert wear a wig in season 3 in the office?” to “Is Hamilton really the greatest musical ever written about Alexander Hamilton?” then this might be the podcast for you.
