ABOUT POP CULTURE ZOO
Pop Culture Zoo was started by Joseph Dilworth Jr. to make right what once went wrong. In the 1990s he wrote for one of those cool websites that reports every little film and TV rumor as fact. That is, until one dark day in 1999. Joseph’s main unnamed source, the One-Armed Voice, passed along intel that Star Wars Episode One: The Phantom Menace would be released in ultra-secret two days before the actual premiere. The story was published, but unbeknownst to Joseph his second step-cousin twice-removed (on his mother’s side) and his friends decided to spend the night lining up for the supposed ultra-secret premiere. Unfortunately, they lived in Northern Alaska and ended up as human popsicles by the time they were found the following morning. Joseph’s great step-aunt (on his mother’s side) never forgave him. His parents were none too pleased either. Since then, Joseph has dedicated his entertainment reporting skills to only writing the truth. After spending many years in far away points of Asia, learning the ancient, long forgotten skill of press-fu, Joseph returned home and started Pop Culture Zoo.
Today, he has gathered around him a plucky group of writers who earnestly want to help spread proper entertainment news and really can’t understand why Joseph doesn’t celebrate each week’s hard-fought resolution by having a beer with them at the local pub, but instead darkly broods about how this one victory only begins to start to repay the debt he will forever owe his great step-aunt (on his mother’s side). Also, Joseph was rocketed to Earth as an infant from his doomed planet and is probably a mutant. Also also, if you happen to know the whereabouts of a shady source called the One-Armed Voice, Joseph would appreciate you telling him. Partly so he could finally catch the voice that has haunted him these past many years, but mostly so he could find out how a voice can be one-armed.
