The cosmos of pop culture never stops as Melinda Barkhouse-Ross and Gerald Glassford bring you another great episode of the latest news and trends in entertainment. Star Wars Celebration took place this past weekend with some major announcements for the future of their television shows and upcoming movies, and the crew breaks it down including a surprise return of a major character from the previous trilogy of movies and what the new setting is for that character. Plus they go over the absolutely HUGE box office numbers for the Super Mario Bros. movie and how it's another big win for the video game industry when it comes to entertainment adaptations. Plus they have not only one but TWO awesome interviews lined up as they speak to Alex Shydler from the Desert of Shadows Live Action Role Playing (LARP) group with an explanation of what is LARP and how anyone can delve into a LARP experience of their own. Plus coming off The Mint Collective 2023, Gerald reaches out to Rob Dolby of Game Time Sports Collect to get an update on the sports card collecting scene as he shares thoughts on how the market is now overall and how former big names like Panini and Beckett maybe looking upon some hard times in the future. Another jam-packed episode of pop culture greatness is heading your way as we venture again into the Pop Culture Cosmos!
