This week Joey The Anime Man and AkiDearest are recording after 15 hours of travel. They're delirious, which is probably an understatement. The duo have been to a small anime convention in Finland, which turned out to be their favourite ever. There were about 3,000 attendees and half of them went to Joey and Aki's panel, which was also their favourite panel ever. The two explain why Finland's anime con is the best, and talk about anime sereis that are massive in Finland but not elsewhere. Then the chat takes a turn, Aki starts talking about Hogwarts as an anime because she's so tired. It's all laughter and hilarious dribble from here. Joey sums it up best: this one's a nighttime episode (and good for a laugh)!

BTS' 'Fake Love' is everywhere at the moment and for Aki, she is surprised at how big K-Pop has become especially in the US. Joey also recognises how influential and powerful the internet is behind the success of K-Pop, but what does he think of the music itself?
