This week we are celebrating the last few weeks of summer by taking a lovely listener suggestion and talking about the beach and how it is tied to dramas. We talk about the dramas with pivotal scenes, why we think beach scenes are important as a plot device - all of which spirals into Natalia professing her love for the “missed the last ferry/bus” trope.

During our Twice episode, we got into a side conversation about fatphobia and beauty standards prevalent in society and in idol culture and decided that it would be beneficial as its own small episode. It's an issue that deserves a lot more discussion, and we hadn't intended to dive into it when we started the episode so we don't go into as much as we should, but maybe this small start will lead to greater conversations.
