Episode 20: A Hypnotic Slow Burn Warming Our Hearts - 【Snowy Night Timeless Love 七夜雪】 Li Qin 李沁 Joseph Zeng Shunxi 曾舜晞

Chinese costume wuxia drama “Snowy Night: Timeless Love,” based on the novel 七夜雪, was not on our radar, but we are so glad to discover it. Having watched 14 episodes, we just had to talk about it and share with the world. A simple tale that is as much about mood and tone as action, it isn’t your typical plot-driven drama. However, don’t let the lack of surface ripples deter you. If you haven’t checked it out, give it a peek and let the magic enthrall you. Note: We apologize for the sound quality of this pod. Juniper screwed up her mic setup, so we had to do post-production enhancements that made her often sound like she had a muffled lisp and nasal congestion. It was better than the alternative of her sounding like a chipmunk trapped in a tin can.
