I'm a little late but I love this so much. Your show is great to work to. You have great taste in music

Also, the album of Black Skirts you didnt like as much, it sounds more like indie-folk than country.

I really liked this one! I think you've found a good balance between podcast talk and music! Keep it up!

Another pleasing episode of SS3. Thanks Danny.. Here in the US we call it, bring your kid to work day. Sort of the reverse of what you do. I watched Korean baseball yesterday on ESPN. what I found particularly funny was that you could hear the fans cheering but there were cardboard cut outs in the seats. Lolol First time I ever saw that. The tunes were good, as usual. Thanks for a great broadcast. Steve_Ho.

He actually mixes a lot of different languages in his songs (especially the older ones). I think there's one song where he includes like 4 or 5 languages all jumbled together. His Korean pronunciation is kind of slurred in places, but I think it's very deliberate. It's kind of like having a twang? I guess that's the only way to explain it. I mean English speaking pop singers sometimes have little unique bends and things they do to their vocals too.

20 seconds in and you have mentioned Black Skirts again and I'm sold. Last time you played one of their songs and I got so excited. I love Black Skirts so damn much ㅠㅠ

I was also disappointed that Solar didn't really shave her head. Also, as an American who loves baseball I'm very excited about the possibility of watching the Korean leagues. Personally I find our pro baseball very boring and generally prefer watching the AA or AAA league games. I thought the first couple songs you played from The Black Skirts sounded odd. Maybe I don't have room to make this comment because I don't speak or understand much Korean but something about the pronunciation didn't sound right. The foreign sound of the Korean lyrics definitely gets less as the discography progresses. Thanks for another great episode Danny! Perfect listening right before bed!
