The gang from “Jackass,” right, return for “Jackass Shark Week 2.0,” 9 p.m. July 24 on the Discovery Channel and discovery+.

In this episode of the “Pittsburgh Pop” podcast, host Tim Benz and TV Talk columnist Rob Owen discuss Pittsburgh pop culture news of the moment, including Emmy nominations with local ties, a Pittsburgh native who’s departed his on-air role at “Jeopardy!” and an increase in Pennsylvania’s film tax credit program that may bring more TV/film production to Western Pennsylvania.

The pair discuss the final run of episodes of “Better Call Saul” and what to expect in this year’s “Shark Week” on Discovery Channel.
