Some of us live in the future. A future where every time I make popcorn my blueteeth speakers crackle so I can’t hear my cryptobro podcast and go all in on bitcoin in 2018.

I make stovetop popcorn in the microwave.
The real trick is to actually read the god damn directions, which tell you to not let the time go all the way and stop the process once the kernels are popping longer than 1 second apart. If 1 full second goes by without a pop, it’s done.

Technology concessions did an episode on this. Those instructions are for the lowest common denominator of microwaves.
If your microwave has a popcorn setting that uses sensors, is almost always the best option. Some use humidity, some use a microphone, some use both.

That affects the overall cook time, not the bit about stopping when the popping slows. Even making it on the stove, you need to take the pot off the burner once the popping slows or you’ll burn what’s already been popped.
