This week Jun and Daniel celebrate reaching their 100th episode milestone by embarking on a comprehensive journey through their podcast's first 33 episodes. From their humble pilot episode recorded with a single microphone to exploring major cultural topics like food, healthcare, education, and social relationships, our hosts reflect on their evolution as podcasters and their deepening understanding of Korean and American cultures. They share nostalgic memories of their early recordings, discuss how their perspectives have changed over two years of living in Korea, and highlight key revelations and takeaways from each episode. The conversation also includes updates from recent listener visits, including a thoughtful Portuguese couple who brought gifts and sparked discussions about colonization, slavery, and European cultural sophistication.
If you're interested in hearing Daniel and Jun's personal reflections on their podcasting journey, learning which episodes stood out most to them, understanding how their cultural perspectives have evolved since starting the show, or simply enjoying a nostalgic trip through topics ranging from Korean pizza and wedding culture to beauty standards and workplace dynamics, tune in to hear them discuss all this and more! This episode also features discussions about their early technical challenges, memorable guest interactions, viral social media moments, and the unexpected ways this podcast has helped them track the passage of time while living abroad.
As a reminder, we record one episode a week in-person from Seoul, South Korea. We hope you enjoy listening to our conversation, and we're so excited to have you following us on this journey!
