  • Ep. 199: Kpop Parlor Games - Utter Nonsense 2
    This week we're playing one of our favorite and funniest parlor games, Utter Nonsense - the game where we have to sing a ridiculous phrase to the tune of a Kpop song. That's all there is to it and it's really fun and hilarious. Please enjoy. See you next week for episode 200!

  • Ep. 198: The Year in Kpop - 2002 (Pt. 1)
    C'mon we saved you a seat in the time machine, let's keep with tradition and check out the Kpop scene 20 years ago. This week we're covering the first 6 months of 2002 and all the popular music releases we could find. We've got a lot of music that sounds super familiar in ways we can't place, and singers that um... struggle with live singing in a way we have yet to see in these episodes. As well as assorted news including lost pets, drug scandals, dating, rough injuries, and some very strange PR choices. Strap in for a long episode of laughs and watch along with our playlist here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-8Wdlv0O5P7oyQGJ6I4i1Astawz-4M4t

  • Ep. 197: Our NU'EST Love
    Raise a glass and let's say farewell to NU'EST while simultaneously learning everything about them. That's right, today's episode is a bittersweet deep dive into NU'EST, recorded on, and in honor of, their official disbandment day. We've got 10 years of NU'EST to cover, from their beginnings as the first boy group at Pledis, to bringing Kpop to often skipped parts of the globe. And how a last ditch shot on a reality competition leads to Waiting, and finally making it to deserved acclaim. Tune in for some incredible bops and a lot of sadness that's all gotta end so soon. You did well NU'EST!!!

  • Ep. 196: What Makes A Fan Song?

    It's time to get back into Kpop Academia with a dissertation exploring the concept of a Kpop Fan Song. What do they sound like? How can you tell what is and isn't a fan song? Shannon carefully studied and analyzed 50 different songs throughout Kpop history to figure out the answers to these questions! Were the findings what you thought they would be? What's your favorite fan song?

  • Ep. 195: SHINee Showdown '22
    Hey happy March! We're revisiting an episode that we did in 2020, but actually in March this time lol. We made another meticulous March Madness bracket of different SHINee songs from across their whole discography and painfully ranked them! How did it go this time? How much did we agree? What song wins?!?!? Find out here! Check our instagram for a blank version of the bracket if you want to play your own way!

  • Ep. 194: 2012 Hit Stage Flashback Part 1 (Full Audio)

    It's that time of year again to go back in time 10 years with MBC and their compilation stage videos! Today we're watching the 2012 version and there's SO MANY GOOD SONGS so apologies in advance, we do scream a lot in this one. This version of the podcast does have the audio to the video we were watching so you can tell what we're reacting to without watching. If you'd rather watch along, try the other version!
