WsspoppinGW??? This weeks pop culture run down features some EXCITING news indeed. Bobby Shmurda is done with his 4 year total prison moment and he is HOT.
But as one door opens another closes….iconic French duo Daft Punk announced they will no longer be making music :(( A moment of silence for all House music enthusiasts out there.
In other news, big golf guy Tiger Woods crashed his car (not the first time by the way) which may or may not impact his golf career?? Klea and Amanda share some *thoughts* regarding that situation.
But honestly, athletes just are not the focus of this radio show….Jojo Siwa is.
The simulation had an unlikely crossover episode between our favorite child star, Jojo Siwa and rapper DaBaby after DaBaby mentioned her name in a song. Listen for yourself and decide if Jojo should release a diss track about him.
The news doesn’t stop there….no no no….Kristen Stewart who was basically blacklisted by Hollywood is BACK and she’s playing a VERY surprising role in a new movie. Tune in to find out who she’s playing and why it…kind of makes sense.
But guys, really, this episode is just too juicy to handle. We’ve got a new rap couple blossoming, a gay icon’s dog held for RANSOM and a life update on Charli D’amelio, because why not.
So please, sit back, relax, and enjoy this weeks pop culture round up.

EPISODE 3
Whats Poppin GW!! For this weeks episode Klea and Amanda are talking all things TV. First we kick things off discussing the (allegedly) famous “where’s the beef slogan” which Klea claims to have never heard. The jury is still out on who’s right, though it may boil down to a cable household vs no cable household discrepancy. Continuing the theme of important cultural moments, Amanda shares that she’s started watching Seinfeld for the first time. Seinfeld, which was on air in the 90’s, is beloved by many-a-parents out there, yet did not receive the same love and cult following as other 90’s classics such as Friends. Looking back, its interesting comparing how comedy styles and joke structures then and now have changed, as well as comparing how those shows have stood the test of time, because let’s face it: most don’t. For example, many beloved shows of the past lack in the “rewatchability” aspect. This important marker of what differentiates good and bad shows is apparent even for more recent shows that we grew up with such as iCarly, produced by the genius but disgusting Dan Schnider. Switching gears to something a little more….”real”… Trisha Pastas exposed David Dobriks famous vlog for its shadiness, prompting a look into influencer culture to round out this episode. From David Dobrik’s abuse of power, to Charli D’amelio and Company’s covid disregard, you’ve got to wonder: why are we expecting any better from them than regular degular plebeians?—Tune into the episode on Spotify and follow @gwwhatspoppin for memes and more hot takes!

WHAT’S POPPIN GW?? The show is back for it’s second season, with returning host and executive producer Amanda Shkreli! This season, we have two new hosts: Klea Markollari, and Nathalie Vuk, both sophomores here at GW. Make sure to check out the show’s new instagram page, @whatspoppingw !! This week’s episode, we start off by talking about the vibes in our communities prior to the inauguration. For DC in specific, the area became a militarized zone with almost every street on the grid having a blockade and a military officer, while smaller areas such as St. Louis Missouri (go Klea!) increase security to prepare for civil unrest. To start of the new season, we all share our roses and thorns of the week- including a few tragic stories about permanent hair damage and the difficulties of traveling around the city under the national guard. The most prominent news topic of the episode is definitely the rumors surrounding Armie Hammer, which have basically been confirmed by his ex-wife. Basically, Armie Hammer (famously known in our generation for his role in acclaimed film Call Me by Your Name) has been accused of being an emotional/physical abuser in romantic and secual relationships. Beyond these general accusations, the story gets darker when it comes to his fascination with blood, flesh, and other sadistic interests. Several women have come out and called Armie a cannibal -- check out this episode to hear more about the story and what the hosts make of it!
