Hunter is Dead
It is with great sadness that we announce the untimely passing of Hunter Morpheus Bishop who died in an unfortunate smelting accident. 140 episodes in, he never was able to make it to his own podcast and now he'll never get the chance. Regrettably, he never told us the password to the podcast distribution account so this will be the last episode of Culture Popped. This week we pitch video games based on movies. RIP Hunter. We will continue to make content in honor of Hunter and will keep the Culture Popped brand alive through Youtube videos to honor Hunter's memory.
