    Aug 5 2025

    BTS is BACK. Join the Afternoona Army as we dive into the whirlwind that was June—from the emotional highs of Festa and military releases to the Hope on the Stage Encore "Hipples" and the pure joy of Run Jin. Some of your hosts were actually in Korea during all the chaos, so get ready for behind-the-scenes stories, real-time reactions, and all the feelings that came with witnessing this incredible month unfold.

  • Festa 2022 Re-Do
    May 27 2025

    Join Lia, Megan, Alison, and Tonya (patching in from Osaka) as we discuss our time in the "way back machine" rewatching BTS enter Chapter Two in June 2022. Yep, that's right. We watched the Festa 2022 dinner to examine all the Easter Eggs and Hot Takes from the day and see how it lands at the threshold to June 2025. Our main takeaway: Promises made, promises kept. Apobango.
