scrapbooking Pop Culture

This week's ScrapGals podcast is all about Pop Culture! 
It's a really fun show and one of our longest at an hour and a half. I share my most embarrassing story of all time which is quite a riot!
As I listened to the show, I typed up a list of ideas we discuss to document Pop Culture. To my surprise, it added up to 100 ways!

I hope this list will inspire you to start scrapbooking some of these things!
