What’s Your Roman Empire?

What’s Your Roman Empire?

Author: Pop Culture Junkie March 21, 2024 Duration: 48:29
The Junkies briefly ponder the Unsolved Mystery of “What Happened to Kate Middleton?”, but out of respect to PCJ superfan King Charles III, the topic swerves to the umpteenth season of Survivor, and addictive reality shows in general. Then Shauna endeavors to explain the Dune universe to Nicole and Olivia, but how do you adequately explain Spice? Then the Junkies plan a sleepover to watch Dune and the perfect companion movies, American Mary and High School Musical, and emphasize that this will be a drug-free triple feature,just in case you were wondering. Then on to this week’s topic, which isn’t the Roman Empire but also it’s not NOT the Roman Empire. The Junkies each confess what they think about at least once a day, and the answers may or may not surprise you. Make the PCJ podcast your daily obsession and listen now!
