Being a pop culture fan naturally comes with a lot of opinions. Youâve got your favorites and youâre ready to defend your picks at a momentâs notice. But whoâs right, and whoâs just plain wrong? Thatâs what Pop Culture Debate Club is here to decide. Each week, two notable mega-fans square off, ready to convince host Ronald Young Jr. that their opinion on TV, movies, music, and more is the only one that matters. And after carefully considering all the arguments, Ronald picks a winner. Will you agree with him?
This week, weâre debating which political TV show is better: Veep or The West Wing? Two familiar voices square off this week, with former host Aminatou Sow returning to argue on behalf of Veep and previous guest Hrishikesh Hirway taking the side of The West Wing. This is not going to be an easy decision for host Ronald Young Jr. to make! Aminatou says that recent political headlines prove that Veep is a realistic portrayal of American politics, warts and all, while The West Wing is a liberal fantasy. Hrishi contends that The West Wing wasnât meant to be realistic and was rather an incredibly entertaining TV show, and that Veepâs satire became too biting to be enjoyable. Which show will Ronald cast his vote for?

Death doula Alua Arthur never thought about death until two back-to-back experiences changed her life.
