URN

Hello, and welcome to the final Popular Table of the year! Before David, Mike, and Felix leave the show, they delve into the world of pop culture news for one last time. With Vicky, Ibi, and the ghost of Tom, they discuss the unfortunate passings of Christopher Lee, Ron Moody, Dusty Rhodes, and Ornette Coleman, Chris Hemsworth's role in the all-female Ghostbusters reboot, Marvel's response to their fans, and Jurassic World's success.

In part 2 of this week's show, the gang reminisce about how they got involved in the show, and examine some of their favourite moments.

In the final part of this week's show, our keen pop culture analysts look at Vicky's contradictory opinions on Taylor Swift, and bloopers, before saying some last goodbyes...

And that's all from the Popular Table for this academic year. Thank you so much for listening in week after week. The show will return in September with a slight facelift.
