Pop Culture Confessional
This week: What is your favorite pop culture moment of 2006?

Doug's Pick: The video to the web movement. YouTube has made it easy and TV networks are following suit.

Jamie's Pick: A performance by U2 and Green Day at the Superdome in New Orleans. It was a celebration to begin the rebuilding of a great city. Check out the performance over at YouTube.

Listener Picks:
Tim Westergren - Warren Buffet gives away his billions
Christine - "(though officially released in Dec 05, we saw it and purchased the DVD in 06....) The Narnia movie exceeded my expectations. I was nervous, as I adored the books and have loved reading them with my kids, so I didn't want them tampered with. But LWW was excellent. Now if they can get the other ones made before the kid actors get too old..."

New question: When flipping channels on TV, what movie will you stop and watch even though you own it on DVD?
