Since 1960, the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences has presented the Best New Artist Grammy to celebrate up-and-coming performers with a bright future in the music industry. Over the intervening 64 years, many of those winners have indeed become superstars in their own right, and on occasion, the award has gone to never-weres, has-beens, and in one notable instance, a pair of total frauds. Crank up the gramophone as the Great Pop Culture Debate seeks to determine the best Best New Artist Grammy Winner of all time. Artists discussed: The Beatles, Olivia Rodrigo, The Carpenters, Sheryl Crow, Cyndi Lauper, Christina Aguilera, Tracy Chapman, Amy Winehouse, Mariah Carey, Megan Thee Stallion, Carly Simon, John Legend, Adele, Alicia Keys, Bette Midler, Billie Eilish.
Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Andrea Guerrero, Gary Jackson, and Kevin Dillon as they discuss 16 of the most iconic Best New Artists of all time.

Nobody sets out to make a bad movie. And yet, it happens. A lot. Especially when it comes to sequels. Hollywood can’t resist going back to the well when a movie captures a passionate audience – and makes lots of money. But again and again sequels disappoint, and in some cases, can be so bad they kill a franchise. So join the Great Pop Culture Debate as it focuses on the most dreadful of duds, the most creatively bankrupt of flops, as we debate the Worst Movie Sequels. Films discussed: Speed 2: Cruise Control, Highlander 2: The Quickening, Space Jam: A New Legacy, Caddyshack II, Jaws: The Revenge, Halloween Kills, Basic Instinct II, Teen Wolf Too, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2, Staying Alive, Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, Grease 2, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Batman & Robin, Zoolander II, Spider-Man 3.
Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Jim Czadzeck, Kate Racculia, and Kevin Dillon as they debate 16 of the most reviled movie sequels of all time.
