What I Know So Far
17. How Pop Culture Connects Us with Liz Ball and James Obert
Join me and my guests, Liz Ball and James Obert, as we explore pop culture and its indelible impact on our lives. Our conversation ranges from the influence of iconic franchises like Star Wars and Sesame Street to the personal connections fostered by shared cultural experiences. We share our unique perspectives, reminding us of the profound ways in which TV shows, music, books, movies, and games shape our individual narratives from a young age.
We believe pop culture is more than just entertainment—it's a catalyst for creating bonds and a source of comfort during life's ups and downs. The conversation also tackles the idea of "guilty pleasures" and how embracing our eclectic tastes contributes to our personal ecosystems. Our stories illustrate how pop culture can connect us with our families, bridge the gap between strangers, and forge lasting friendships.
In a plot twist, this episode offers more than just an exploration of cultural connections—it brings the thrill of live recording to the forefront when Mother Nature unexpectedly shakes up our discussion!
Liz Ball spends her professional days working in science communication in addition to publishing Heart Eyes, a weekly recommendations newsletter that provides connection and an outlet for her most benevolently bossy impulses. She enjoys cooking, reading, crafting, traveling, and looking forward to things.

James Obert is a hugger, and hugs well, but doesn't make a thing of it. When he isn't working, he spends his time immersed in pop culture, gaming, and previewing menus of restaurants he is going to. He has been blessed with great family and friends.
