Welcome to another ramble episode! Listen to what we've been up to this past month, the struggles of being a teacher in America, the continuation of the TV writers and actors strike, pop culture and K-pop concerns, and Simone catching Nafees up on everything that happening in BTS/ARMY land! Conterversies and all!

*This episode was recorded on September 10, 2023. Many of the information we discuss is outdated news. Update on the WGA & SAG-AFTRA strike, the WGA has come to a tentative agreement with AMTP, while the strike is not entirely over, they are closer to getting back to work. SAG-AFTRA is still on strike and we are hoping for the best for them and that they receive all the terms they are asking for!
