Episode description

It's our 20th episode! And to celebrate this milestone, we have an equally celebratory word - Pop!
Can't go an episode on Pop without talking about pop culture. We take you through a surprising study that details out the evolution of pop music - turns out it's not actually getting unbearable as the next generation takes over, that's just us. Also, we pay tribute to one of the biggest contributors to pop culture - Shakespeare.
Ever wondered why soda is called pop? We've got you covered. There's also a segment on the famous nursery rhyme 'Pop Goes The Weasel' and the history of popcorn.
Going out with a pop - why is popping bubble wrap the best thing ever. Find out here!

Barely Researched Facts is a facts-based show (barely) brought to you by ArtNowThus, a Mumbai-based experiential arts company. Born out of the infamous lockdown of 2020, the show is a trip down dissection lane – of words. Every episode, the hosts Ragini and Shar choose one word and deep dive into it. Every interesting fact we can find, we research – somewhat casually – and bring to you, pairing it with some good humour and casual chat between two friends. Come take a listen!
