In another late-published episode, I recall an exhausting week filled with project work and mishaps, but also an exciting Friday night spent watching the newest Marvel movie Eternals! I give an in-depth, partially-coherent movie review (with no spoilers) and gush about the characters, subplots, and backgrounds that set up a new era of Marvel characters. I also recommend watching Shang-Chi and Black Widow (if you haven't already) as these movies are both recent Marvel releases this past year that are long overdue and much-deserved! This week's song recs are both chill, but while one is sweet and twirly, the other is boppy and straight-up "vibez"!

Coming to you live from a VERY tired host, this week's episode is all about squid, bike seats, pianos, and fishing! I talk about the progress of my (hopefully on-time) Halloween costume order, my experience biking for the first time in several years (and its resulting soreness), my first (an unintentional) piano gig, and me being bought into the fishing life. Song recs this week are both songs that I've been playing non-stop all week and include a timeless youthful singing-rap and an upbeat joyful melody appreciating good company!

In a surprisingly on-time episode, I finish up my fourth week and full month of my semester program in Massachusetts, providing a fun recount of an overnight kayaking trip spent with the other students in my program, which involved hiking, kayaking, and getting knocked over by a wave at the beach! I also talk about the latest (and very popular) Korean drama that I have begun, a riveting and thrilling societal/psychological show that is short, easily bingeable, and keeps you at the edge of your seat. Song recs include a poppy upbeat yet wistful melody and a playful singer-songwriter tune!
