Pop, the Question S1-E9

"Guilty Pleasure Songs"



Episode Summary

This includes songs filed under the category of "guilty pleasure," where earnest tastes somehow prove misaligned with what's considered cool. In a special live episode of Pop, the Question (recorded for the 6th Annual Philadelphia Podcast Festival), Dr. Melinda Lewis digs deep in the crates with pop music fans Ann Alexander, Dr. Katie Barak, and Jenny Carolina- Bell to unearth some of their greatest hits of all time.
