For our final main episode of 2024, Louie and Russ look back at all the artists ranked in the Pop Pantheon this yearâ from Demi Lovato to Frank Ocean to Adele, Tina Turner, Pink and so many moreâ and, with the help of calls from our dedicated and very passionate listeners, assess whether any tier adjustments need to be made. Did Brat Summer make us overzealous on Charli XCX? Was it cruel to put Hillary Duff in Tier 5? With the blockbuster success of Wicked, has Ari finally made it to Tier 2? All that and more!
We'll be publishing a couple little treats on 12/24 and 1/2 and will be back to our regularly scheduled programming on 1/9 with new weekly episodes!

Happy Thanksgiving! We're off this week but we wanted to highlight an older episode, a personal fav of Louie's that many of you might have missed. This is our Robyn episode from way back in May 2021â the sixth of Pop Pantheon everâ with the brilliant Jia Tolentino. Not only is it wonderful conversation about one of the greatest pop artists of the modern era. It's where the Niche Legend Pantheon tier was created. A seminal moment in the podcast's history! Enjoy.

In a preview of this week's Pop Pantheon: All Access episode, the film adaptation of the Broadway musical Wicked is a smash hit, raking in $114 million dollars during its first weekend and earning rave reviews from critics and fans alike. One of its two leads, pop diva Ariana Grande, is also earning plaudits in her first headlining film role, even including some serious Oscar buzz.
But while many pop stars have attempted a Hollywood crossover, very fewâ even those with a successful film or two under their beltsâ have been able to turn that into a long-term successful film career. Why is that? And will things be different for Ariana?
Chief Film Critic at Vanity Fair and host of the podcast Little Gold Men Richard Lawson joins Louie and Russ to break down Ariana's performance in Wicked and what it portends for her future on the silver screen.To hear the rest of the this episode plus receive weekly bonus episodes of Pop Pantheon, gain access to our Discord channel and so much more, subscribe to Pop Pantheon: All Access at the Icon Tier.

Katy Perry's latest album 143 lit the internet ablaze for all the wrong reasons when it dropped earlier this year, mostly because of how wrong it got nearly everything and how hard it underperformed as a result. 143 was a capital-F flop in the classic sense of the term. But what exactly does the moniker "flop" mean when it comes to pop music? What constitutes a true flop? How do pop fans use it? Where did it originate and how has it morphed over time into a term of endearment for diehards, especially queer ones? All that and more in this fascinating conversation.

Shaad and Louie unpack Charliâs 2020 lockdown album, the DIY How I'm Feeling Now, and 2022âs Crash, which ditched the outrĂ© experimentation of her PC Music era in favor of open gestures at the pop charts.

Senior Editor at Pitchfork Anna Gaca returns to Pop Pantheon for the second in our three-part series on Charli XCX. Anna and Louie look back on Charliâs early link-ups with "hyperpop" innovator Sophie, starting with 2016âs Vroom Vroom EP, which began Charli's pivot from an also-ran on the pop charts into the genreâs savviest alternative auteur. From there, they chart her adventurous new creative direction, her work with frequent creative partner A.G. Cook on her 2017 mixtapes, the sugar-rush Number 1 Angel and the critically-beloved Pop 2. Finally, they discuss Charli's scrapped third studio album, XCX World, her failure to launch commercial singles in the U.S. and her 2019 self-titled album Charli.
Join us next week for our third and final part in the series, which will cover Charliâs output from 2020âs How Iâm Feeling Now through brat.

In a preview of this week's Pop Pantheon: All Access episode, Lady Gaga turned heads with her debut film role, her Oscar-nominated turn in 2018's A Star is Born, and many thought she might defy history and become the rare pop diva who successfully pivots to Hollywood. But since then, her track record has been spotty at best. Despite her performance being singled out as a bright spot, her next film, 2021's House of Gucci, got a mixed reaction at best. And now her third effort Joker: Folie Ă Deux, released last week, is being pegged as one of the biggest comic movie flops of all time, critically and commercially. With more duds than hits in her filmography, what's Gaga's future as a film star? Louie, Russ and Variety's Daniel D'addario discuss.
