Do We Want This? - October 2025
Special guest host Ada Tseng of the Saturday School Podcast joins us once again for our October 2025 edition of "Do We Want This?" Good Pop's monthly Asian American entertainment news roundup. On this episode we check out some exciting new projects from some of our favorite Asian American actors and directors, including an unexpected Opera adaptation of one of our favorite films of the year, but alas, spooky month also brings some bummer news as we pour one out for one of our few mainstream outlets for Asian American journalism.

Mentioned in this episode:
Don't miss an all AAPI production of HENRY VI: A Trilogy in Two Parts at The Public in NYC
NAATCO returns to The Public with their production of Shakespeare's trilogy, HENRY VI: A TRILOGY IN TWO PARTS, adapted and directed by Stephen Brown-Fried. Condensed into two parts and performed in rep, experience this saga of a nation spinning wildly out of control. Part 1: Foreign Wars kicks off with the funeral of King Henry V, leaving his infant son on the throne and sending the country into decades of spiraling chaos both abroad and at home. Part 2: Civil Strife picks up nearly 30 years later, as nascent domestic feuds rapidly metastasize into the full-blown civil war known as the War of the Roses.
