Deepti is finally back after a LONG hiatus and is thrilled to welcome new podcast guest Deana! Deana is a fabulous culture aficionado AND a therapist IRL! Perfect for Real Housewives analysis. They discuss the season 6 premiere of our beloved show (just ask John Oliver and Kristen Wiig who gush about RHOSLC) Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. While this premiere left a lot to be desired, Deepti and Deana still break it all down. Especially trying to figure out what Britney's role even is, whether or not Heather and Whitney are "trying their best" and wondering where on earth Lisa Barlow was! (This ep was recorded on 9/21/2025...so yes there have been more RHOSLC eps that have aired since! Pop Culture Prisoner will be catching up!)

PCP EPISODE 200!!!!!!! Next Gen NYC S1 E1-E2 ~w/Sean
Pop Culture Prisoner's 200th episode!!!!!!!! WOOT WOOT!Deepti and Sean mistakenly dreaded watching the new Bravo show Next Gen NYC about the children of Bravolebs and other rich/famous parents' kids BUT IT IS AMAZING! Well so far at least. The douchey villain Charlie is providing decent tv so far, Ariana (Kim Z's daughter) is shockingly endearing, Brooks has become a SWEET BOY on this show, a couple of the cast members are leaving a bit of a snooze mark so far, Georgia is fantastic and Dylan...wow Dylan wow.

The Valley S2 E2-E8 ~w/Haley & Sarah
Deepti, Haley and Sarah decided to do an impromptu episode about the second season of The Valley so far. They discuss why season two is feeling SO MUCH MORE ICK compared to the equally disturbing season one. Topics discussed: "HOW sorry" they feel for Brittany (it's a mixed bag), that Zach isn't enough comedic relief for the show (but kudos to him for trying), Lala being annoying, Jax being a dangerous psychopath, how Janet must have zero fans, the intricacies of Nia and Danny's relationship and Deepti denounces her past attraction to Jesse!

The Valley S2 E2-E8 ~w/Haley & Sarah
Deepti, Haley and Sarah decided to do an impromtu episode on the overall vibe of Season 2 of The Valley. They discuss why it's giving them the ick and has been a little hard to watch, despite LOVING the first season so much. Deepti no longer finds Jesse attractive PHEW! Michelle and Brittany need to stop talking about their husbands in front of their toddlers! Janet has exactly zero fans. Zach is sweet but he's not capable of carrying all the lightheartedness on the show. Brittany is just a tough watch in general. Jax is obviously a monster! Deepti has some strong opinions on Jasmine for some reason. Kristen is having her baby SOOOON!
Deepti has a large probably unhealthy obsession with pop culture, especially reality TV. Join her and her friends with equally problematic obsessions analyze the bejeezus out of their favorite shows - Real Housewives, Southern Charm, Summer/Winter House, Family Karma, Vanderpump Rules, Indian Matchmaking, Love Is Blind and more!
