We're pausing Pop & Circumstance while Elizabeth focuses on growing her business and balancing responsibilities.

This is a deliberate pivot—not a failure—and we'll retool the show to return with better-quality content when the time is right.

Thank you for your support; we'll be back in some form soon.

What does $165 million get you for Wuthering Heights? Emerald Fennell’s bold, polarizing adaptation — starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi — has the internet buzzing. We break down the box office, the casting controversies, critical reactions, visual design, Charli XCX’s soundtrack, and whether the film’s marketing spend lived up to the payoff.

Plus quick cultural updates: Prince Andrew’s police interview, Shia LaBeouf’s arrest, the Nancy Guthrie missing-persons case, and the ongoing Warner Bros. bidding war.

In this episode we break down a major update in the Nancy Guthrie case after investigators obtained and released stills from doorbell video footage retrieved via Google Nest, showing a masked person at the front door and prompting a public appeal to share the images.

We then shift gears into a thorough discussion of mouth taping: the differences between nose and mouth breathing, how nasal breathing supports oxygen uptake and immunity, research linking childhood mouth-breathing to developmental and orthodontic changes, and the aesthetic claims (like mewing) tied to tongue posture and jaw shape.

The hosts share personal experiences with mouth taping, cover trending products and study findings on sleep and snoring improvements, and summarize practical takeaways for listeners considering trying the method themselves.

Pop and Circumstance is your go-to podcast to stay in the loop on what’s happening in pop culture, and get a digestible amount of personal growth to help you deal with all of life’s circumstances. Hosted by Elizabeth Martin, a business owner (Southern Supply) and former HR lady, and Hart Morse, an actor (Will Trent, FBI) and writer, these two bring diverse and hilarious experiences, perspectives, and expertise in a relatable, fun to listen to format every Monday and Thursday.
