On the 10th installment of our Missing Pieces series, Las Vegas hip-hop mainstay Phil A returns to the podcast to talk about 2016's music mockumentary Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping starring the Lonely Island. One of the funniest movies of last decade, it's filled with memorable funny songs and performances and was a great movie to rediscover for this series.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping and the movies we discuss!
