Podcast Shoutout: Verbal Diorama. Hosted by Em, this show goes behind the scenes and tells you all about how a movie gets made. She gives you the inspiration and the path the movie takes until it gets made.

Listener Shoutout: The listener shout out is to Malé, the capital of the maldives. It is one of the most densely packed cities in the world. There are over 200 thousand people living in just over 8 square miles. It is a cool mix of Dravidian people who migrated to the islands from south India and Sri Lanka and Arab traders who built up the area.

Music suggestion: B.I (비아이) ‘Tasty’ Official just some good funky kpop. I like his other song BTBT and this is just more of him being an awesome dancer and fun singer. Enjoy!
