It's finally here! In part two, Briana talks about her summer trip to Singapore and Seoul, South Korea! Briana gets real and tells us her perspective on what it's like traveling internationally as a black woman, cultural differences and observations, and tips on if you plan to visit any of these places in the future. We hope you enjoy and learn a lot!Simone also comes in at the beginning of the episode to express her thoughts on the conversation of "Durag Gate" and her perspective on how black culture is looked at through K-pop and an entertainment lens in general. Please remember this was recorded before Oct 7th and that happened the same weekend. The PSA was recorded during the week so she could get her thoughts together while also trying to figure out and learn what was happening to the Palestinian people. As always, we will not be free until we are all free. 00:00 - 1:40 - Intro1:40 - 36:00 - "Durag Gate" and perspectives of Black American culture36:00 - 2:23:00 - Briana's trip to Singapore and Seoul, South KoreaSocial Media- IWasThinkNPodEmail - iwasthinkingpod@gmail.comSimones new Tiktok: simonesayswhat_

We're so happy to welcome back our favorite guest, Briana! She joined us to talk about her trip to Singapore and South Korea initially, but we had to split this episode into two parts due to us talking for so long.

Welcome to another ramble episode! Listen to what we've been up to this past month, the struggles of being a teacher in America, the continuation of the TV writers and actors strike, pop culture and K-pop concerns, and Simone catching Nafees up on everything that happening in BTS/ARMY land! Conterversies and all!
*This episode was recorded on September 10, 2023. Many of the information we discuss is outdated news. Update on the WGA & SAG-AFTRA strike, the WGA has come to a tentative agreement with AMTP, while the strike is not entirely over, they are closer to getting back to work. SAG-AFTRA is still on strike and we are hoping for the best for them and that they receive all the terms they are asking for!

Listen as we try not to lose our minds talking about all the pop culture and current issues in the United States. Support the writers, actors, and any other union strike that may be happening here.

In this new episode, we discuss the Korean movie Unlocked! Perfect timing with all the talk of AI right? We also get into a small discussion about (HBO) MAX’s show The Idol (you know we can’t go one episode without talking about K-pop), TV Writers Strike in America, and why a second season of Squid Game is happening. If you want to skip all that, we start talking about the movie around the 40-minute mark. Enjoy!

*This episode was recorded at the end of June. When Simone goes on her rant about the writer’s strike, she mentions the actors may go on strike, and they are currently on strike and have been on strike for about a week or two now. It is also not the first time the actors have been on strike as she has stated, but TV writers and actors have not been on strike at the same time since the 1960s. We have also been learning a lot from WGA, SAG-AFTRA, and how the industry works through official members online, like how little residual pay they make due to streaming, studios trying to use AI not to pay workers, and many more.
The links to learn more are listened to below. If you want to learn more, please visit their websites to keep up to date and find any ways you can help. We stand with WGA and SAG-AFTRA and hope this trickles down to other professions to enact actual change in the world*

It's a long one, but we had so much to discuss. The Glory released the second part of the show on March 10th and we were NOT disappointed. Listen as we discuss how the show wrapped as well as further discussions of real-life bullying, trauma victims, and how sometimes revenge is needed and well-deserved. Do you want a second season? Let us know!

Listen as the I Was Thinking hosts break down and discuss the hottest new Korean drama currently streaming on Netflix, The Glory! (part one). Since this drama has a heavy theme of bullying, Simone also shares some facts and statistics about bullying in the United States and Korea. And as always when we do in tv/movie reviews, we spoil everything, literally. Everything. We will definitely be back to talk about part two when it drops so stay tuned for that!

Wow! We can't believe it, it's our second year anniversary! Will we make it to three? We hope so. Listen as we go over our stats as a podcast, go on our usual tangents, and play a fun game where Simone took the questions from our first-year anniversary episode and re-asked them to the other hosts to see if anyone's answers changed within the year. Thank you all who have listened and continue to listen to our little show. We really appreciate it and hope these episodes can bring you some joy in this crazy world. What's your favorite episode from us?
Simone does give condolences at the beginning to all the recent tragedies over the Halloween weekend

As promised, we talked about Yumi's Cells season 2, and boy, did we have to say a lot about the second season. Listen as we break down the season in more depth, point out the more significant comparisons between the webtoon and the show, and how we really feel about Yumi and Babi's relationship. Before the episode, Simone does bring up a real-life coffee shop used in the show and why it makes her uncomfortable. Are you team Babi or team Wung? Do you think they'll make a third season ? We hope so.

In this episode, we did a movie review on Pixar's 25th movie, Turning Red! Listen as we talk about the movie's symptoms, introduce the cast and crew, and even talk about some controversies that came up around the movie. This episode is also a little different because we got really deep into our own coming-of-age stories and how certain themes related to our own childhoods and school years. We even ranked our favorite Pixar movies at the end! Which ones would you put in your top 5?

*Somethings that were missed by (Simone)
Mark Tuan did a song with BIBI for the Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings official soundtrack called Never Gonna Come Down
Ateez released a song and music video called Don't Stop through Universe (I don't know what Universe is)
Update: BTS sold out all 4 nights in Las Vegas with JUST the ARMY membership presale in 6 hours???? That's amazing, powerful, and scary all at the same time.

This episode was recorded back in December before the rise of COVID cases due to the omicron variant. Everyone, please continue to do your best when it comes to keeping yourself safe against COVID. I know we are all out here trying to survive - Simone
It's finally here!!!!! Simone and Briana got together to reminisce about seeing BTS in Los Angeles, California for their Permission To Dance in LA concert!!!! Honestly, though, do they even talk about the actual concert? It's really hard to say because sometimes being at a BTS concert feels like a fever dream. Listen as they (mostly) fangirl, talk about the traumatic experience of Ticketmaster (which they are still not over), how they thought SoFi stadium handled the concert and their overall experience of being in LA. Did any of our listeners get a chance to see them? We would love to hear your experience and see if they were similar to Briana's and Simone's. We are sorry in advance for the amount of squealing we do in this episode.

Welcome to another movie review segment! In this episode, we talk about one of Macy's favorite movies of all time - A Studio Ghibli film - Howl's Moving Castle! Listen as Macy retells the whole movie ( by memory, by the way, isn't that insane?) and gives her insight on the characters, plot, and overall movie.
As stated, we discuss the whole movie in full so there will be spoilers. Do not listen If you have not seen Howl's Moving Castle and do not like spoilers
Wow. The time has come. It's I Was Thinking's one-year anniversary! Can you guys believe that?!? Thank you so much to everyone who has listened to us, whether you've listened to every episode or just one. To celebrate, Macy asks the I Was Thinking crew questions so our audience can get to know us and our personalities a little bit better. We also go off-topic and on tangents a lot so please enjoy and answer the questions along with us!
Welcome back to another edition of, Can you Guess My Favorite (insert group or artist) Song? Listen as Simone and Macy play the guessing game with Kpop Group TXT, give facts about the members, and try to figure out if alwayness is truly a word or not.
(This episode was recorded a while ago, so some information may be old or not up to date)
Trigger Warning: Some of our off-topic discussions do get a little dark, especially towards the end talking about TXT's latest album.

Welcome to our very first movie review! Listen as Nafees and Simone talk about and share their thoughts on What If or The F Word, starring Daniel Radcliffe, Zoe Kazan, Adam Driver, and Mackenzie Davis.
"Wallace, who is burned out from a string of failed relationships, forms an instant bond with Chantry, who lives with her longtime boyfriend. Together, they puzzle out what it means if your best friend is also the love of your life." - IMDb
The burnout of 2021 is real but I promise we will still be making and putting out episodes!!! Thank you for continuously listening to our little show! - Simone

Thank you Ed for joining us in this special episode! Listen as the host and Ed share their excitement, thoughts, and comparison to real-life scenarios with one of the most popular animes, Attack on Titans Due to time, Nafees, Simone and Ed only discuss the first season, but that doesn't mean there won't be a future episode or two about the others (wink wink) This episode also contains major spoilers of AoT Season 1. We give a warning before we start talking about them for anyone listening that has never seen the show before. Listen at your own risk.* More on the Norse Mythology: https://www.ancient.eu/Norse_Mythology/

What started out as an episode to catch up on life and talk about the podcast, turned into ranting about the many current events that have been happening in America. Nafees and Simone felt that it was important to have a serious discussion about their thoughts, opinions, and feelings on BTS's loss at the Grammy's, the rise in Asian Hate Crimes, and racism in general.

Surprise!!! You thought this game was over? Simone and Macy are back to play the guess our favorite song game with BTS Rap Line mixtapes! Listen as they try to guess each other's favorite songs from RM's first Mixtape, Agust D, Hope World, Mono, and D2. Mixtapes can be found on Soundcloud, Spotify, and Apple Music (except for RM's first mixtape which is only on Soundcloud) We recorded this episode before parts 3 and 4, so we stuck with the original point system, 30 points for getting the number song correct and 50 points for getting 5-1 correct in the right order *Copyright Disclaimer: Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for “fair use” for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship and research.

Happy Valentines Day! (sort of, we are a little early). To celebrate this holiday, we are talking about relationships, but not just your average couple's relationship. Nafees and Simone wanted to take a deeper dive into the word "relationships" by talking about relationships between lovers, friendships, family, and yourself. To help us with this topic we brought back Matt and Rebecca as they tell us their relationship journey with each other, themselves, and their family. They also give great advice at the end about finding love, self-love, and why they are big advocates for therapy.

Happy New Year everyone! Or is it? On this week's episode of I Was Thinking, Nafees and Simone talk about the future (sorta?). This episode is a mix of talking about the future and rambles about their childhood dream careers, SpongeBob, and aliens? Yeah, it got off topic a lot, but still enjoy the casual and a little deep conversation of where they wonder where this year and the rest of the future takes them. Also, Simone shares her 2018, 2019, and 2020 Apple Music Wrap if you're curious to hear her change in music since discovering Kpop and BTS.

On this week's episode of I Was Thinking, we have our very first guest! Simone's best friend since childhood, Macy, joins the hosts as they talk about their adventure of getting into K-pop. This is very important because Macy is a very important factor in Simone's journey. Since K-pop and certain K-pop groups will come up throughout the podcast randomly, they thought it would be best to share their stories of how they discovered the genre. Tell us your Kpop journey and if there are any groups, old or new, that you think Nafees, Simone and Macy should check out.
***Towards the end of the podcast, things get a little real as Simone takes some time to talk about her feelings and things she has noticed as a black K-pop fan in the messy year of 2020. All of her criticism is towards K-pop and American entertainment companies only and hopefully, she is able to get her point across even though there are some times she may have misspoke (like when she says we but shes mostly talking about herself or her group of friends that she's discussed these issues with in-person). Nonetheless, these are just her feelings and opinions on things that affect her personally.
The moral of the story of this episode is to enjoy whatever it is that makes you happy and don't let anyone try to shame you for trying to find joy in this crazy circus we call life, especially if you are black because we already go through so much stress in life.
