Critical Kpop Podcast

Twice is finally here! On today's episode, Tim and Zander talk all about JYP's newest nine-member girl group! Join us as we analyze their hit single, "Ooh Ahh," review their humble beginnings from Sixteen, discuss our favorite members, and more! Is this the best rookie group debut of the year? Listen and find out!

On today's episode, it's another guys' night in! This time, Tim an Zander focus their attention (and their mental faculties) on one song: "I Got You" by NS Yoon-G. Obsession is the operative word, and it's something that every Kpop fan deals with at some point or another. So sit back, relax, and listen as Tim and Zander analyze a single song as a metaphor for the much larger Kpop world.

On today's episode of the Critical Kpop Podcast, it's guys' night in! Join Tim and Zander as they pop open a beer and discuss which "buttons" a debut solo release should push, comparing Taeyeon with Goo Hara and Amber. Also reviewed is new music from Ailee and iKon. And who has had a better year: YG or SM? Listen and find out!

This time on the Critical Kpop Podcast, we're talking all about S-E-X and our "first times." That's right, sex and sexuality is everywhere in Kpop. But does it affect men and women equally? Join the discussion with Sarah Luca, Zander Stachniak, and...Tim Moore? What is this, an alternate universe where Tim still exists? Not quite! We found this gem hidden away in our archives, and now is a perfect time to share! - See more at: http://www.criticalkpop.com/2015/07/critical-kpop-podcast-lost-files.html#sthash.ZawXmFyH.dpuf

In this week's episode, we talk about all the new releases: 2PM, BTS, Teen Top, AOA, Mamamoo, Sistar, and more! Whew! We also welcome a new contributor to the show: Claire! Tune in to see which new releases are duds, and which ones have us excited for more!

In the third episode of the Critical Kpop Podcast, Zander, Sarah, and Tim take on the boyband! We talk debuts with Monsta X and Seventeen (whose debut was better?).

Tune in for all this and more! - See more at: http://www.criticalkpop.com/2015/06/critical-kpop-podcast-episode-3-rise-of-the-boyband.html#sthash.vhDY99Cj.dpuf

Join Tim Moore, Sarah Luca, and Zander Stachniak as we talk about the first ever Toronto Kpop Con, four very different releases from female artists this week, and, of course, BTS. Tim Moore hosts, guiding us through news, reviews, and critical analysis on everything Kpop.

We're excited to introduce the brand new Critical Kpop Podcast! Join Sarah Luca, Tim Moore, and Zander Stachniak as they discuss the clever censorship of EXID's "Ah Yeah," BASTARZ and the apparent racism in "Conduct Zero," JYP and his butt obsession--we mean "Who's Your Mamma," and the sexy construction workers of Girl's Generation's "Catch Me If You Can."
