Greetings, new listeners. Thanks to everyone who checked out the premiere episode of Sound and Fury: The Angry Asian Podcast. I know the quality was a little rough, but we're working on it, and I appreciate your support with this new project.That said, we're already back with episode two. Whaaaat. I know it's only been a couple of days since the first one, and I'm not planning on churning out future episodes this quickly, but this one's sort of time-sensitive for film fans in Southern California, so I wanted to get it out there as soon as possible.
So gather 'round, my friends, for episode 2...
