Ka-Pow the Pop Cultured Podcast #105 Barrel of Cheryls

There is a lot of information to cover in any given week, and we here at Ka-Pow the Pop Cultured Podcast try to get to as much as humanly possible.  But some pop culture events have a much bigger impact than others, and deserve our full and undivided attention.  That is why we are devoting this entire episode to just three recent spectacles: "Deadpool 2," "Solo: A Star Wars Story" and, of course, the season two finale of "Riverdale."  SPOILERS abound from the very beginning, so be sure you've seen them first, then join us for our in-depth reviews.

Language - PG-13.  (Contains mild adult language.)

0:01:09 - DEADPOOL 2

Hoping to recapture the feeling of the Merc with a Mouth's first blockbuster film, Ryan Reynolds returns for more over-the-top action and R-rated humor, bringing Cable and Domino along for this bigger, brasher sequel set in the X-Men Universe.

0:17:06 - SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY

More impressive than the astronomical odds of picking the same two showtimes as Bucky, this prequel officially introduces our word "kashyyykee" into Lucasfilm canon.  Oh, and there's also Kessel runs and sabacc games and unrefined coaxium and Lando and stuff.

0:49:05 - RIVERDALE

Season two of our favorite teen soap opera concludes with Episode #22, "Brave New World," wrapping up some major storylines and giving us hints of what's to come next year, both on screen and on the shelves of our local Hot Topic.
