Roman (Kieran Culkin), Shiv (Sarah Snook) and Kendall (Jeremy Strong) resort to shenanigans from their childhood midway through the series finale of “Succession.”

In this episode of the “Pittsburgh Pop” podcast, host Tim Benz and TV Talk columnist Rob Owen discuss Pittsburgh pop culture news of the moment, including new on-air talent at WPXI-TV and a suburban Pittsburgh woman who came in second on the recently-concluded season of CBS’s “Survivor.”

Benz and Owen offer their reactions to the series finale of HBO’s “Succession” – and the theory that the last name of the character who ended up on top predicted that character’s rise — and Owen reviews Arnold Schwarzenegger’s first series, “FUBAR” on Netflix.
