Welcome to Pop Pantheon, the podcast where DJ Louis, the 14th and guests overanalyze your favorite pop stars and rank them in the official Pop Pantheon.

I, of course, am not DJ Louis.

I'm Russ.

I produce the show with Louis,

who is taking some time this summer to work on his book.

You can, by the way, sign up for updates on that book from Louis at Poppantheonpod.com.

I've created a little book tab with an email sign up.

Go and do that. Little housekeeping,

we have our main pop girls. Pop girls summer edition of our party coming up next week, July 25th

at the Meadows in Brooklyn. Early bird tickets sold out, but you can snag advanced tickets right

now on the website or on the show notes of this

episode. Always in the bio of our social media. Gorgeous, gorgeous is back in LA on August 1st.

It is the same night that Lady Gaga is in town, so they are doing a Mayhem Ball edition of

the party. That is going to be an absolute blast. I really wish I could go. You can get our niche legend dad hat, poppantheonpod.com. It is very cute. I wear mine all of the time. Do not forget to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. It really does help us out, and we do really appreciate it. And as always, if you love this show that you're listening to, you will also love Pop Pantheon All Access,

where every single week we put out a new episode breaking down the latest pop music.

Troy McKee from Beyond the Blinds just came on with me to discuss new songs from Cardi B, Lizzo,

Katzai, and more.

Brittany Spanos from Rolling Stone just did an episode on Kesha's period with me.

We've got a huge back catalog there of episodes on both new and classic albums.

Patreon.com slash pop pantheon or audio only directly from the Apple Podcast app.

Find them at the link goodbye on our socials in the show notes.

You know where to get them.
