The SeoulWeaver Podcast

Heya Weavers! I remember quite a bit of talk about the US Army’s Noncombatant Evacuation Operation, or NEO, exercises/preparations a few weeks ago. Tensions between North Korea and the US seemed to be abnormally high, so much so that it became the topic of that weeks podcast episode. It seemed tensions were subsiding with South […]

What’s up Weavers! So South Korea has an election on Tuesday May 9th and whichever candidate Korea’s citizens choose will be responsible for navigating the country through some turbulent times. Most notable to many would be foreign policy and the way forward with North Korea and the United States. I talked about the increased tensions […]

Heya Weavers, We’ve been enjoying a lovely few weeks of spring here in Seoul Flowers blooming, weather warming up, a few light showers here and there. It’s been rather nice. However, it seems others don’t have time to stop and smell the roses. Some are too occupied trying to kick off another war here on […]

Heya Weavers, After teasing an episode on Spring events here in Korea for a couple of weeks now, I’ve finally gotten this episode complete. Ironically, it was somewhat delayed by, you guessed it, the cherry blossoms! I covered a few upcoming events in this episode, mostly festivals. Below are links to websites for any in […]

How’s it going Weavers!! Musicals and concerts are the topic of today’s podcast episode so for anyone who loves watching a live performance like I do, this ones for you! I’ve not seen nearly as many musicals or attended nearly as many concerts as I wish I had. In the past, I’ve never really had […]

Heya Weavers! Winter is just about over and we’re about to head into the beautiful months of spring so I took a little time to talk about my personal likes and dislikes of the two. There was a time when I despised the winter but I think that was just the So Cal in me. […]

What up Weavers! Today’s episode is another Seoulweaver interview but it’s a little different from previous versions as it is in person! That being said, the audio was a little bit of a challenge. I’m also working the night shift so this is going to be a little brief. We talked about a few things […]

Whats goin’ on Weavers! As we approach the end of the month, I’m starting to bring the relationship themed content to a close. But before I do, I wanted to talk about the dating scene and how so many characteristics of Seoul make the city seem so perfect for it. Now, quick disclaimer, I’m a […]
