TX Engine/Exhast question(backfire/pop)(accel and decel)

new to mazda i have 2004 mazda rx-8 100000 miles.

If you are catless and the popping happens when you lift your foot off the throttle, especially after some....spirited driving, then it's normal

if your battery died, your fuel trims got reset, so there would be some anomalies during idle and accel, but nothing severe.

at 100k miles, more info is needed, last time coils replaced, spark plugs replaced?
