The true lede: 325m views for K-Pop Demon Hunters since June!

Call us when Frankenstein hits the five-month release mark and/or triple-digit views.

We covered the Indiana Jones franchise back in ep. 44, and truly, how many academics would love to fight nazis as a side gig during field research? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/y...

I think a lot about the story Carl Reiner told: he’d have been a sewing machine repairman if not for a free WPA drama class. That led to other theater work, to Sid Caesar, to Mel Brooks, and all the rest. All because of one free class paid for by a government that felt the arts were worth teaching.

My fav '25 Halloween moment was when the middle-aged woman who'd herself created an incredible Derpy the Tiger costume from #KPopDemonHunters & giant Derpy decoration for her house gave my daughter, dressed as Rumi, her own 3-D printed Derpy. It reminded my daughter fandom wasn't just for kids.
