Pop Culture Blind Spots is back, and this time it's Thomas who has gone his whole life without really digging into a classic. Thomas enjoys sitcoms, but one of the great 80's sitcoms has escaped him. This week, Deremy introduces Thomas to The Golden Girls. Throughout Deremy's life, his mom was always watching the fun dynamic between Rose, Sophia, Dorothy, and Blanche. Deremy is excited to pass his appreciation on and hopefully make GG Nation proud.

Deremy and Thomas always love exploring legendary musical acts, and they're doing their first one of 2025 as they chat about Five Essential Rolling Stones songs.

But the guys feel like The Stones should be appreciated way more for what amazingly talented musicians they are. Let's see if Thomas and Deremy gave a good look at what makes these icons pop from a musical standpoint.
