    Ep. 273: AMAK Movie Club - My SHINee World 1st to 15th

    Ep. 273: AMAK Movie Club - My SHINee World 1st to 15th

    Y'all know we love any excuse to make a SHINee ep, and this is a really good one!!!! The SHINee 15th anniversary movie is now available with English subtitles so you know we had to watch it (several times)!!! Tune in for a full recap of the movie, including a key for figuring out which SHINee World concerts each stage is from, getting teary eyed over displays of old technology, reveling in the honest and funny stories that SHINee tells, and of course enjoying flawless concert performances that we've never seen in HD before. Then, we get a little in our feels about some uncomfy omissions and feelings that got brought up in the aftermath of watching, and hear a voicemail from one of our listeners! If you watch the movie, please tell us what you think!! We really truly want to know!!!

    Ep. 272: Writing 'Monster' Hits with Chikk

    Ep. 272: Writing 'Monster' Hits with Chikk

    How do you thank the person responsible for writing the song that changed your life as a fangirl forever? That's what we had to figure out this week as we welcomed the one and only Chikk to the podcast!! Chikk has written dozens of Kpop mega hits including SHINee's 'Don't Call Me', NCT127's 'Kick It' and of course our EXO gateway, 'Monster'!!!! We ask her all about her career in Kpop starting with getting thrown right into the deep end of an SM writing camp, creative perseverance, the freedom that is making music, and wait til you find out her EXO bias (Shannon actually screamed). Thank you so much Chikk for coming on the podcast and sharing your stories with us! We were truly geeking out to the highest degree.

    Ep. 271: Discover Weeekly

    This week, AMAK is proud to welcome the incredibly talented and unbearably adorable girl group, Weeekly!!! We'll start out with an infamous AMAK group "snorkel" into their career with member intros and a quick timeline rundown. Then it's time to hear from Weeekly themselves! We discuss our incredibly similar music tastes, skateboard lessons, stage fright, communicating without actually talking, and a very special announcement! Thank you thank you to the lovely ladies of Weeekly for being the first girl group to come on the pod!
    Also big thank yous to IST, Lobeline, our in room translator Aiden, our post translator Kate, and Dana Wickens for being the voice of our audio subtitles.

    Ep. 269: Deja Vu Battle (Deja Vu Battle)

    Did you just get deja vu? Cause it's time again to battle some songs! Along with our seasoned fan tier patreon patrons, we're ranking 10 different songs that are all titled 'Deja Vu'. This list was pretty diverse, and the listeners opinions were as well! Listen to hear the songs and discussions around their common themes, and find out which song reigns supreme! Then, weigh in on whether our random game group is facing forward or away at the beginning of the music video. It's the greatest debate of the episode!

My favorite kpop podcast!

This is my favorite podcast, hands down. These ladies work so hard to create informative, engaging, and super fun content. I think this podcast is totally accessible for long-time fans of kpop, or newbies! Aside from the in depth research and information, I think the best thing about this podcast is the friendship between Shannon and Angelica. They are hilarious, warm, and completely genuine. Every episode makes me feel like I’m hanging out with friends. S&A are knowledgeable and open to sharing what they love (like in the Bias episodes, so fun). I’m so grateful that this podcast has introduced me to tons of amazing groups and solo artists. Thank you for all your hard work, ladies! I look forward to this podcast every week! :)
