How many offspring can cockroaches produce? Why should you keep sending postcards? Why were weird hats having a moment in 1991? Believe it or not, these are all questions that get explored in our January 1991 POP CULTURE episode — but we do cover more expected topics — shocking omissions from Karen’s reviews of Mermaids and Listen Without Prejudice; not-so-shocking half-assery from Neill in his INXS album review; a One To Watch who wasn’t; and much more. Put on YOUR dumbest hat and listen in!
