Billionaires Shouldn't Exist
What in the Shibal Podcast - A podcast by Soogia & Ed Choi - Thursdays
Categories:
On S2 E32 Susie and Ed return with bi-weekly episodes for the time being. Susie has had a busy two weeks with her daughters winning athletic AND academic awards; Christmas shopping and decorating; and all the parental things pre-holidays. Susie's youngest has still been asking about the elf on the shelf a week into December because she still believes in the magic of Christmas, including Santa - which she believes in still BECAUSE OF Susie... comparatively to her more cynical older daughter who stopped believing on her own. Ed has been working on his internal dialogue when it comes to interacting with his mother and has been actively working on not viewing the past with his mother as "owing" him something. Unfortunately, Ed has also been dealing with the loss of one of his childhood best friends who passed suddenly and has been having a hard time getting motivated to make content because of the impact it had on him since. In fact the days started to melt together and Ed got his days mixed up in a funny but embarrassing way. It is also the 1 year anniversary of Archie's adoption/gotcha day. Susie and Ed discuss Luigi Mangione and United Healthcare especially about how the media has been portraying what happened vs the rest of the country. And the lack of care for another school shooting where 15 people lost their lives over one billionaire. South Korea impeaches President Yoon Suk Yeol demonizing North Korea as he schemes to become a dictator of South Korea... while the citizens of South Korea come together in solidarity to impeach him. While Korean American influencers are traveling to South Korea at the same time as this historic event to attend the premiere of the second season of Squid Games while not joining in solidarity with the people of South Korea - at an event about a show about classism as there is a classist war happening in South Korea AND the United States. Ed makes his mom watch Squid Games. We also have some quick write-ins including Pike Place Market being partially owned by an Asian American. A Chinese man dating a Black woman while his family only wants him to date Chinese women. Susie can't think of a word. And finally an AITA for not being let into a class.
