P.o.p. Presents is a podcast that will explore all of the genres of art that I've been a part of to inspire a whole new generation of creatives. I will explore my personal history, accomplishments, music history, pop culture, education, motivation, peaks and valleys, and the everyday lifestyle of an artist. I aim to be the spark that starts a wildfire for your goals, habits, and dreams. It will be an all encompassing experience of the host Walter P.o.p. Matthews IV.
"It’s a breeze blowing, but there is a frequency of stillness out here in the 3 A.M. hour... The present is a gift, and I’m just here in the serenity of the summer moonlight."
— P.O.P.
Episode Description
In this intimate Part Two of his July series, P.O.P. (Walter IV) steps into the quiet stillness of a 3 A.M. Fourth of July morning. Beneath the cosmic silence of a clear night sky, distant stars, and a luminous moon, the daytime heat gives way to a cool, refreshing summer breeze—setting the backdrop for deep reflection.
Moving beyond the surface noise of daily life, P.O.P. shares candid thoughts on the fleeting nature of time, reclaiming personal autonomy, and the sacred urge to create. From navigating the news of a past connection to dissecting how the algorithms of both social media and life mirror whatever energy we feed them, this episode is a meditation on gratitude, presence, and protecting your peace.
In this episode, we talk about:
The Frequency of Stillness: Finding a rare, serene quiet in the 3 A.M. hour before the holiday noise begins.
Connections & Life Impact: Reflecting on past relationships, mutual respect, and the comfort of checking in on the people who shaped our journeys.
Reclaiming Control & Purpose: Standing firm in personal destiny, rejecting societal noise, and honoring the fundamental human drive to create.
The Cosmic Mirror: How social media algorithms—and life itself—reflect back whatever we choose to search for, invest in, and plant.

The Evening Star and a Crescent; A BirthdayBlessing Ep. 21
Episode 21: Podcast Prose and Poetry: The Evening Star and a Crescent A Birthday Blessing
"You are listening to P.O.P. Presents. And I’m P.O.P., also known as Walter IV. This is a special birthday edition—6/21, the first day of summer."
In this episode, recorded deep within the transition from night shift to the dawn sky, P.O.P. reflects on the gift of another year. Moving from the Western horizon’s evening crescent star to the vibrant purples, blues, and rising sun of the Eastern horizon, this is a raw, real moment of presence. It’s a meditation on investing in oneself, stepping into a creative flow state, and looking beyond the immediate rooftop to the vast, unpolluted night skies of the future.
Thank you to everyone for the birthday wishes, for seeing the vision, and for walking this path.
Listen, evolve, and grow. One love.
