Best of Pop Goes Your World 35: Fun With Caveman

In this bonus episode of Pop Goes Your World, hosts Chris McBrien and Derek Myers revisit their popular 'Fun with Caveman' trivia segments from past episodes, compiling highlights from three distinct rounds. The first round features Derek attempting to identify six 'weird' science fiction films based on cast or director clues, with mixed results—naming classics like *The Matrix*, *Inception*, *2001: A Space Odyssey*, and *Altered States*, but missing others like *Quest for Fire* and *The Sorrow and the Pity*. The second round challenges Derek to identify foreign films nominated for Oscars across categories like Best Picture, Documentary, and Art Direction, where he correctly names *Roma*, *Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon*, *The Triplets of Belleville*, and *Das Boot*, though he struggles with lesser-known titles. The final round is a head-to-head trivia showdown between Chris and Derek, testing their knowledge of baseball teams featured in Hollywood films. Chris ultimately wins with perfect recall on all 10 questions, including *The Rookie*, *The Natural*, and *A League of Their Own*, while Derek falters on key titles. The episode closes with a lighter Star Trek trivia round, where Derek shows some knowledge but misses several canonical details, ending on a humorous note about his 'Trekkie' reputation.
