K-Pop Demon Hunters (aka Corn has its Connotations) with Maia Kobabe

from Progressively Horrified

It's Ben's birthday show and we're talking about something that is a horror movie in roughly the same percentage as Funny People is a comedy, it's K-Pop Demon Hunters! Listen to us as we marvel at the brilliant writing. Nod with us as we observe the nature of a completely abusive mentorship. Worry with us as we consider the troubling connotations of lore around this world that isn't fully built out in a way that makes us wonder if maybe our heroes aren't heroes at all. We're here to go in way too seriously deep on K-Pop Demon Hunters and we have a first time guest, the writer of Genderqueer, Maia Kobabe here to show us how it's done done done. Who's Responsible for this? Director: Chris Appelhans Maggie Kang Writers: Danya Jimenez, Hannah McMechan, Maggie Kang Stars: Arden Cho, May Hong, Ji-young Yoo, Ahn Hyo-seop, Yunjin Kim.

Explicit DWT: Drinking While Talking Blake & Sheeler Every episode of DWT: Drinking While Talking, Jill Blake & Wade Sheeler discuss movies and music, new and old, with some forays into pop culture from the past, as well as wherever the spirit takes them, as they get progressively more “spirited.” Whether they’re delving into classic film, desert island picks, quizzes, games or misguided monologues, the question will always remain, how far can they get, until everything falls apart? As the editors of TheRetroSet.com, the premiere clearing house for all things classic, you can catch their deep dives into movies, music and lifestyle. Sober. Their hope on DWT is to take the pretension out of discussing the classics, as they make their way from the early 20thcentury through modern day by way of film, culture, politics, through the prism of their unique and personal lens.
