Academics Henry Jenkins and Colin Maclay use their combined knowledge to dig deeper and ask more ambitious questions than most pop culture podcasts out there – not doing recaps or just remaining on the level of entertainment coverage. For them, popular culture offers resources for asking questions about who we are and where we are going, questions that can be political, legal, technological, economic, or social, but often cut across all of the above.

What's Making You Sappy Episode 18: Pop Culture Collaborative
You'd bet that the Pop Culture Collaborative would have good pop culture recommendations! And you're not wrong -- today's media recs come from Bridgit Antoinette Evans and Tracy Van Slyke, who touch on the big and bright sit-coms like The Office, Superstore and Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and how we might revisit them in the light of last year. Also, we have the immortal works of Cicely Tyson, who left this world to ever appreciate her presence earlier this year.
