S03 E26 - We Layer on the Flavor
Pop of Culture is back! This week, we head to a commercial kitchen to learn the art of layering flavors with Chef Jason Reynolds. He also talks about how his catering team maintains their culinary creativity while managing hundreds of events each month. Then, just ahead of the 2026 IndyFringe Festival (August 13 - 23), Executive Director Paul Daily explains how they turn dozens of shows around in ten days. We also meet comic book author—and owner of Aw Yeah comics in Muncie—Christina Blanch, and we'll hear from the remaining artists in this year's Muncie Three Trails Music Festival!

Pop Bonus Track - Pokey LaFarge
It's a little extra Pop! We sat down with musician Pokey LaFarge ahead of his performance at the Muncie Three Trails Music Series on Saturday, July 25. We asked what keeps him coming back to Muncie, what's different about his latest album, and how music can speak to the moment we're in. He also tells us how the birth of his daughter has changed his career outlook. Pop of Culture returns August 7! Listen on IPR every Friday and Saturday at 12:00 p.m. ET, or right here in your podcast feed.

S03 E25 - We Build the Ultimate Road Trip Playlist
This week, we've put together some of our favorite musical guests from Pop's first 2 ½ seasons, including: a live performance from singer-songwriter Dave Carter, 10-piece band "White Lies & the Half Truth" (featuring bandleaders Jarrod Case and Jason Cooper), healing Native American flute music from Larry Gindhart, a previously unaired song from Behind the Song artist Spencer, and more! Grab your headphones—or connect to your car stereo—and dodge potholes while listening to local artists. This is also our last episode before our regular summer break. We'll be back with new episodes starting Friday, August 7.
