We’re here with the first in-person episode since our first two episodes recorded in a hotel room at PAX South! Steven is visiting Megan to be there for her Kpop Academy showcase performance, so this was recorded at her home on opposite sides of the same mic. We talk about what it was like to apply, how it felt to be part of this free five-week bootcamp, and the creation of her group “Megan and the Mamamoos” “Five by Five”. (Not to be confused with f(x).)
