North Mollywood

North Mollywood is the weekly altered reality pop culture recap that you didn’t know you needed. Hosts Alex Pappademas and Molly Lambert love the 90s, outer space, and underwater sea creatures. They dislike most new technology, can agree to disagree on anything medieval, and they may or may not be stoked about nu metal. North Mollywood is about all of these things, and weird AF. Listen? North Mollywood is a proud member of the MTV Podcast Network. You can check out other great shows including Speed Dial, Lady Problems, The Stakes, Happy Sad Confused, and more at podcasts.mtv.com
