"It is a scientific fact that these macaques, like all other primates, including humans, are communicating. They communicate in much the same way we do - facial expressions, vocalizations, body postures, those kinds of things." - Jeff Kerr Jeff Kerr is PETA foundations Chief Legal Officer. I asked him to come on the show to talk about one of PETA’s current lawsuits against the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Nathional Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). PETA is arguing that the monkeys being tested on in a government run facility are capable of communication (or “are communicating”). And that we have a constitutional right under the First Amendment to receive their communications. This could be a game changer in allowing us to see what’s really going on in labs that are funded by taxpayer money, and which have so far been censored from public view. PETA’s lawsuit follows years of NIH’s attempts to deny Freedom of Information requests banning PETA executives from its campus and illegally censoring animal advocates’ speech on NIH’s public social media pages. Through the lawsuit, PETA is seeking a live audio-visual feed to see and hear real-time communications from the macaques who have been kept isolated, used in fear experiments, and had posts cemented into their heads. Anthropologists and other scientists have studied macaque and other primate communications for decades and know that the monkeys communicate effectively and intentionally through lip smacking, fear grimaces, body language, and various cries and sounds—all of which constitute speech under the law. Primatologists can analyze that speech on a deeper level to share their stories with the world.…

1:22:21

Today we're talking about the 2024 Cdrama You Are My Secret. Part of the reason this drama caught our eye is because of Miles Wei, as well as it being about a married couple. This drama definitely had some very good moments, but we thought it slowed down a lot towards the end. We have a lot of thoughts about this show so we hope you enjoy listening!…

It’s been a few weeks since we upload but we’re finally back with our thought on 18 Again. We also thought it would be fun to watch the 2009 movie 17 Again, and compare the two. This show definitely exceeded our expectations in the best ways possible. It did a very good job of weaving together the comedy and serious moment throughout the show. We hope you enjoy listening!…

This week we’re talking about the 2023 drama Tell Me That You Love Me. This drama initially caught our eye because we know the lead actress and it sounded like an interesting concept.

Unfortunately this week we're back with another dropped episode. We were really looking forward to this show especially because Park Hyung Sik is in it and we haven't seen him in anything in a while.

We’re back with a movie this week, Concrete Utopia. We had been wanting to watch this movie for so long now and it finally became available in North America. We don’t usually go for disaster movies but it was a very interesting watch. Even though there are quite a few shows exploring human nature this one still was able to be unique in it’s portrayal.

We’re back with our first drama that finished airing in 2024! This drama takes quite a few tropes/themes like friends to lover, love triangle, and small town and portrays them in their own unique way. We weren’t quite sold in the first few episodes of this drama but really grew to enjoy it as we went and we hope you enjoy listening!…

Sorry we’ve been gone for so long but we’re finally back with another episode. Today we’re talking about the post-apocalyptic Kdrama Black Night. We were very excited to start this drama because we’re Sci-Fi fans, but unfortunately it didn’t quite work for us. The drama had a lot of potential but just didn’t do the story justice in our opinion. Even though this review isn’t quite as fun we hope you still enjoy listening!…

Today we’re talking about the 2021 Japanese drama The 3Bs You Shouldn’t Date. This drama is very cheesy and lighthearted which made it a very easy watch. If you’re looking for a good serious romance this show isn’t it but it’s was still a fun in it’s own way. We hope you enjoy listening!

It's been forever since we've done a first impressions episode but we're finally bringing it back with Summer Strike. We just stumbed across this drama and had no idea what to expect.
