Not all heroes wear capes - some just pay for the TV streaming accounts. In this episode, we shine a very unserious spotlight on the real MVPs of everyday life: eldest daughters holding households together since the dawn of time, the one friend who keeps the group chat alive, and more. These overlooked legends deserve a round of applause or at least a mention on Hop Culture.

In this episode, we dive into The Altar - a new spinoff of Provo's Most Eligible that follows singles as they date, get engaged, and (hopefully) make it to the altar, all in one day. We break down the highs, lows, and hilariously familiar stereotypes of dating in Provo, from whirlwind romances to awkward first dates. Whether you've lived it, witnessed it, or just love reality dating chaos, this one's for you.

You’ve heard us rave about our latest obsessions in our #influenced episodes—but what about the OGs?

This week, we're diving into the world of whimsy—what it means, why it charms us, and when it maybe crosses the line into cringe. Inspired by a viral TikTok asking people to share their most whimsical habits, we chat about everything from fairy houses to teacup gardens, and play a round of “Love It or Lose It” featuring unicorns, Luna Lovegood, and a healthy dose of twee. Whether you're a full-time whimsical girlie or just whimsy-curious, there's something here for you.

Let us know—what’s the most whimsical thing you’ve ever done?
