About the Podcast

We are Culturally Irrelevant, a now-defunct podcast hosted by four friends who shared overlooked goodies in pop culture with each other and our listeners...

In a typical episode, each host brought one movie or video game or comic book, etc, and gave a spoiler-free overview of it. At the end of the episode, the gang debated about which of them brought the most irrelevant topic, and which brought the most relevant.

Tyler Driscoll
Born in the cold of Michigan and shown Star Wars by his father; Tyler developed into a full-blown nerd. Star Wars, Marvel, and cinema galore. I'm Tyler.

Ben Lundsten
A father of two future superheroes and a victim of male pattern baldness. His specialties are Halo 1 and films you've never heard of.

Josh Wierschke
Your friendly neighborhood Josh has been reading comics since before he could… well, read. But this nerd won't be put in a box.

Dane Christenson
An unapologetic Sega fanboy from WI who always roots for the underdog, making him the most irrelevant of the bunch. P.S. Stanley Kubrick.

In April 2020, we lost our friend and cohost, Dane, who filled every room he entered with joy and laughter. He loved long-forgotten movies and video games and was a driving force behind this podcast's existence. He also blogged about things he was passionate about and enjoyed photography.

We will miss him.
