Trying out something new!  Dropping mini podcasts between our longer ones.  These will be reactions to current things that come out.

But for this episode, we bring back our K-Drama buddy Jennifer to talk about the Netflix phenomenon Squid Game.  We don't spoil anything in the first part of the podcast, but about 18 minutes in we start to go over the major plot points, but we'll warn you when the spoilers are coming.
