In this Decoding TV bonus episode, David and @joyofnapping discuss the first 3 episodes of Charles Yu’s Interior Chinatown (Hulu):

• Ep 1 - Generic Asian Man
• Ep 2 - Delivery Guy
• Ep 3 - Tech Guy

How does Charles Yu’s amazing book make the transition to the small screen? What components were we particularly taken by? How do we find the show as a parody of police procedurals? And as a piece of media criticism? Listen to hear us discuss all these questions and more!
