Not Your Average Netizens

The OGs of K-pop and Korean entertainment podcasts since 2014. This is a safe space for open and mature discussions about K-pop stuff we love, hate, or love to hate. No sugar coating here, but we hope you can relate to our views even if you disagree with some of them. Above all, we want to make Kpop fun and have fun while doing it! We are made up of netizens from all over the world and we gather weekly in our spare time. Sometimes we agree, sometimes we don’t, and we hope that you find yourself in each of our voices.

CL The Taco Bell Queen

Saturday Feb 20, 2021

Saturday Feb 20, 2021

It's a brief (for us) recording of this episode, as there just isn't much going on in K-pop at the moment. But is that a good, or bad thing? Of course, there is still some tomfoolery about, as I.M. gets slammed for wearing a sacred religious prayer, Jamie incomprehensively calls herself a Black queen, and CL becomes the unofficial mascot of an American fast food chain. Join us for the discussion, and don't forget to like and subscribe!

Springtime for Kitler

Saturday Feb 06, 2021

Saturday Feb 06, 2021

Don't you hate when Nazi imagery gets in your K-pop? So do we. This episode we discuss the delightful topic of Korea and K-pop's fascination with the Third Reich, along with (G)-Idle's relevancy, Taemin's (fake) controversy, and apparently Wonho sleeps with very few clothes on. Ask us how we know. Plus — Nicki from Unbothered Unnies and Soju Chronicles joins us!
