I won't be doing a Better Call Saul podcast to cover season 6, but I will likely be putting together a few recaps here and there. If I post anything, Patrons here will definitely hear about it.
@joyonapping and I watched the two-episode season premiere last night and got together the next morning to discuss it. We talk about how the tone of the show has gotten darker and where we see the fate of each character heading right now.
Thanks, as always, for your support.<...

I won't be doing a Better Call Saul podcast to cover season 6, which will begin airing in two separate parts starting tomorrow (April 18), but I will likely be putting together a few recaps here and there. If I post anything, Patrons here will definitely hear about it first.
@joyonapping recently rewatched most of the series, then we got together with our friend Carter to re-watch the season 5 finale and talk about our thoughts. In this bonus audio, we reflect on what we ...

Dave on Dave is an ongoing series in which David Cho and David Chen gather together to discuss life and work. Also, usually David Cho has some harsh words to say about David Chen's stuff!
In this episode, Dave Chen freaks out about Elon Musk's Twitter stake, then debate whether Dave should launch a new newsletter or whether he needs to think bigger.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced today that Will Smith will be banned for 10 years. He can't attend any Academy events but it's still possible for him to be nominated and even win awards.

Severance Season 1 just aired its finale on Apple TV+ and wow, what an incredible season of television! I was pleased to have the chance to chat with Myles McNutt about this season -- what was great about it, what could've been improved, and our thoughts/hopes/fears for Season 2.
I will be posting this conversation on YouTube later but am making the audio available as a podcast exclusively for Patrons. Thanks for your support!

I had a chance to chat with The Daniels this week, the writer/directors of Everything Everywhere All At Once, which is going into wide release this week.
The final version of the conversation will be made available on Culturally Relevant and there will be video snippets on my YouTube/Tiktok pages, but for Patreon, I thought I'd release the unedited conversation, which includes some fun tidbits at th...

Morbius is a movie that is filled with baffling decisions. The film feels like the end result of an uninspired script followed by tons of studio meddling.
Movies like this really get me thinking about the stories behind them and how they get made and put out in this state. I was pleased to chat with Patrick H. Willems about these topics. As usual, our conversation spun outwards and encompassed a bunch of other tangents, including WTF Jared Leto was doing in this ...

Wow. What a night. It's safe to say that Oscars did not go down as anyone predicted.
Immediately after the telecast, I got on Twitter Spaces with Michael Collado and Myles McNutt to discuss. A bunch of other people joined as well (including several Patrons). I'm sharing the audio recording with you folks as a podcast.
Thanks as always for your support!

I watched Everything Everywhere All At Once tonight and it was one of the most impressive movies I've ever seen. I loved it so much, so I recorded some quick thoughts about the movie. This is a particularly short recording because I didn't want to talk about any of the movie's plot details - everything about the movie is a surprise and I want to limit the spoilers as much as possible.
Thanks, as always, for making my work possible.

Greetings Patrons!
Kogonada's After Yang is a gorgeous, lyrical film that asks the same questions that great sci-fi films do: What does it mean to be human? What truly defines us? Is it our memories, our emotions, our compassion? What is love, really, when you think about it?
For me, the film made me reflect on what it means to be Asian-American. In the brief video above, I explain why. I hope you find it interesting, and thank you so much for making my work pos...
