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 May sweeps TV newscast ratings.

The pair also review – spoilers included! – what they liked and disliked about “Obi Wan Kenobi” episode three on Disney+.

Owen recommends “All Rise,” which debuts its third season on OWN this week, for fans of old-school, procedural broadcast network legal dramas.

And they discuss the state of mid-budget movies that have found a welcome home on streaming services.
