Episode #91 – Best Buddies and Peculiar Pairs
Whether it’s the best friend, the partner, the roommate, or even a tenuous temporary team up, pop culture is filled with examples of memorable duos. There is something exciting about seeing characters who are opposites get into trouble and play off of one another — always. Duos are maybe one the the oldest (and perhaps most effective) tropes there is. It’s hard to imagine any moment throughout pop culture where a dynamic duo would be missing from storytelling. For this installment the panel looks at their favorite duos from across pop culture.
