On Sunday July 26, The Pop Break hosted a panel at San Diego Comic Con 2026 at The Neil Morgan Auditorium at the San Diego Public Library (330 Park Blvd, San Diego, CA).
The concept was simple — Could a place like Atlantis convince you to take a trip under the sea, or would you prefer skiing on the grounds of historic Winterfell? In a bracket style tournament, our panel argued the pros and cons of each place (and food, a lot about food). The bracket feature areas from Star Wars, comic books, Lord of the Rings, Moana, Pixar, and all over pop culture.
The panel features:
- Alex Marcus (Podcast Network Director of The Pop Break, Co-Host of TV Break, It’s Tom-Plicated and Bill vs. The MCU)
- Amanda Rivas (Podcaster and Senior editor of The Pop Break, Cosplayer, Co-Host of Anime x Pop and Socially Distanced)
- Gigi Ford (cosplayer, podcaster, and content creator)
- Jason Patrick Galit (JPG) (pop culture educator and consultant – InterMyth)
- Brandon Jackson (content creator and photographer – Chief Geek Photography),
- Derick McDuff (podcast host – Underrated Movie Podcast)
