Welcome to Pop Pantheon, the podcast where we completely overanalyze the music, legacy, and cultural impact of all your favorite pop stars.

I'm your host, DJ Louis X. Andth, and I'm a DJ, writer,

and all-around pop music fanatic. I've spent my entire life and career thinking about,

dissecting, and being obsessed with pop stars. Their music, their legacies, how they relate to one

another, to the larger pop musical landscape, and to culture more broadly. What separates an icon from a mere superstar?

Why does some careers become the soundtrack to our lives, and why do others flop?

Whose work in legacy transcends time, and whose feel stuck in it?

Every episode of Pop Pantheon, we'll devote an entire episode to a pop icon,

from Titans of the Genre like Beyonce and all the

way down to lesser Titans, like Nicole Scherzinger. Each episode, you'll hear a little breakdown from

me, and then some distinguished guests and I will chop it up about their careers, discographies,

public personas, live performances, music videos, feuds, tweets, you name it.

And at the end, we'll turn pop into fantasy football, make our final judgment, and place them in the official pop pantheon.

Well, hello, everybody.

Welcome back to another episode of Pop Pantheon.

This, of course, is DJ Louis once again. Thank you for joining me,

as always. Always so thrilled to have you here back again listening to another episode of this podcast.

I want to extend a huge shout out to everybody that came out in the last couple weeks to my shows
