Everything you need to know about the newsletters.
HELLO!
Welcome to Popculturology and Snackology. These are free newsletters about pop culture and snacks written by Bill Kuchman. (That’s me.)
Here’s what you can read about in Popculturology: Movies, TV, trailers, box office news, Star Wars, Marvel, Saturday Night Live and more.
On top of all that, Popculturology publishes Deep SNL Thoughts, an edition after each new of Saturday Night Live, The Box Office Report on Mondays and The Monthly on the final Sunday of each month. I’ll also publish if there’s really cool breaking news.
And here’s what you can read about in Snackology: Snacks. But more specifically, the special editions, the gimmicks and the bizarre variants of your favorites things to eat and drink.
WHO AM I?
I once ran a different website called Popculturology. (It covered pop culture.) I also wrote for CBS Interactive’s TV.com before they disappeared. Between those two ventures (and Twitter), I’ve been writing about pop culture — Star Wars, the MCU, How I Met Your Mother, SNL — for over a decade.
I’ve resurrected Popculturology as a newsletter to have a space to share my thoughts on pop culture in a post-Twitter social media world.
WHEN DO I PUBLISH?
Every week, you’ll receive at least two editions of Popculturology.
- The Weekly Newsletter: Publishes on Friday at 7 a.m. ET. This covers all the pop culture news of the week.
- The Box Office Report: Publishes on Monday at 7 a.m. ET. This covers the weekend box office.
Sometimes, you’ll receive an extra edition of Popculturology.
- Deep SNL Thoughts: Publishes the Sunday after a new episode of SNL, hitting your inbox as soon as I can write it.
- The Monthly: Publishes on the last Sunday of each month at 9 a.m. ET. Three things to know. Two trailers to watch. One article to read.
- Special Edition: Sometimes there’s news that just can’t wait until the weekly newsletter. Other times, I publish special features outside of the weekly newsletter.
Snackology’s publishing frequency is dependent on when I make a cool find or track down a limited edition item.
READER PRAISE
“For years, I loved being Bill’s coworker because I got to pick his brain on pop culture — everything from analyzing SNL’s guests to explaining Marvel’s strategy. I’m delighted that he’s sharing those insights.”
— Dan Diamond, The Washington Post
“A fun and irreverent look at pop culture with a focus on Star Wars, Legos and other nerdy stuff. Highly recommended.”
— Will Cleveland, The Cleveland Prost
