Summary

This week, Margaret hosts a very bittersweet episode with the whole gang present (Guy via phone). This is Oliver Wang’s last show as a co-host, and the gang is talking about pop culture farewells. They talk about the departure of which characters affected them most growing up, good and bad series finale’s, and the most recent pop culture departures that really got to them. And later, Guy joins the conversation to talk about their latest jams and to say his own farewell.

P.S. because this show is about **farewells** please note that there will be many spoilers

That’s My Jam:

Margaret Wappler - Ragged Wood

Oliver Wang - Always In My Heart

Wynter Mitchell - A Solid Wall Of Sound

Guy Branum - Adventures in Paradise

Each week we’ll add everyone’s jams to this handy Spotify playlist.

You can let us know what you think of Pop Rocket and suggest topics in our Facebook group or via @PopRocket on Twitter.

Produced by Christian Dueñas and Kara Hart for MaximumFun.org
