GroundPod Day 2024! Happy Groundhog Day!

Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don’t forget your booties ’cause it’s cooooold out there today! It’s Groundhog Day, and you know what that means! It’s the return of your favorite annual podcast, GroundPod Day! Just like every year, Joe, Andrew, Nicole and Mav return to do a deep dive analysis of a fan favorite film… so long as that film is the 1993 movie Groundhog Day. On this year’s episode, we ponder existential questions about Phil Connors’ experiences, like grappling with the reality of constantly reliving the same day and how his actions could change different timelines, discuss the burgeoning theater scene of the real world Punxsutawney, draw parallels with other movies and TV shows featuring the time loop concept, and we unveil a new segment where we talk about minor characters’ impacts on the story and their actors’ careers outside of the film. That, and whatever else happens to come to mind in the process of talking about it. You’ve heard the show before. You know how we do it! Same thing every year, right? Well, maybe not. What have we been up to since last year’s show? What do we have to say this year? Listen and find out and then let us know your thoughts in the comments! See you next year! And every year after that. Same Groundhog Time! Same GroundHog Podcast!

Om Podcasten

Vox Populorum is a blog and podcast devoted to pop culture criticism. We believe that the best way to understand culture is to discuss it. But we also believe that it's a lot more fun to have these conversations throwing back a couple beers at the bar rather than in a classroom. Please join our weekly round table of media critics, academics, creators, artists, professors, students and fans for an engaging discussion about movies, novels, comic books, television, video games, music or whatever else we happen to think of! Nec audiendi qui solent dicere, Vox populi, vox Dei, quum tumultuositas vulgi semper insaniae proxima sit.
