Take Two with ARMY Take Two with ARMY

It’s finally here…it’s D-DAY! This is the episode Amanda has been waiting for, it’s (almost) the all-Yoongi episode! In this week’s episode, we’re sharing our journey to Chicago for the Agust D D-Day concert and the adventures we had along the way and during our time there! Brooke also continues her “adventures” with online dating and fills us in on what we’re all missing out on…or not 😂

In this week’s episode, we’re taking a slight detour from our usual BTS content and chatting about, mostly, Epik High! In February of this year, we ventured to Detroit for the All Time High Tour and we’re taking you along for that adventure! After the battle royal for Agust D tickets and personal strifes, we needed to soothe our souls with a truly EPIK concert! 

We would love to hear from you! Please share with us how you became ARMY, how BTS has changed your life, and if you have any suggestions for future episodes, we would love to hear them!

Our journey continues with our early 2023 adventures and we introduce you to Namjooning. For those of you who don’t know, “‘Namjooning’ refers to the act of appreciating art, visiting museums, reading, communing with nature, and other forms of self-care (National Gallery Singapore, n.d.).” We also kick off our journey to Yoongi’s D-Day World Tour and the nail-biting experience of the ticket-buying experience!

In this week’s episode, we’re taking a little break from our journey to Hobipalooza and opening up about our personal lives and events that BTS has helped navigate us through. Whether you’re new to BTS or long-time ARMY, we hope that with sharing our stories it may help you along your journey and, maybe, feel less alone.

Also, Brooke shared with me the One Direction song she absolutely loved before BTS captured her heart, Story of My Life. I too had a One Direction song that I listened to on a constant repeat before BTS stole my heart, You & I. I have added both of those to the show notes, enjoy the throwback!

We would love to hear from you! Please share with us how you became ARMY, how BTS has changed your life, and if you have any suggestions for future episodes, we would love to hear them! Also please let us know if we can share your story with our listeners and if it is okay to share your name or if you would like to remain anonymous.
