This week, the Drama Trio is diving headfirst into the 2025 Chinese drama Mobius, starring Bai Jingting — and let’s just say, this time-loop story had us going in circles too! 

Some of us enjoyed it somewhat, some of us… not so much. From the twisty plot to the missed potential, we’ve got plenty to say. So grab your headphones and join the chaos as we break down all our thoughts on Mobius — the good, the bad, and the “wait, what just happened?” moments.

In this week's episode it is the end of the month, and that means it is time to go through my currently watching list.

Because the podcast was on hiatus, it’s been 2 months since I have done one of these episodes, so the first half of the episode is what I am currently watching now, whereas the second half, is a little catch up with everything that I have been watching.

Hope you enjoy.

In this week’s episode I sit down to review the Chinese drama “A Dream Within A Dream”, staring Li Yitong and Liu Yuning.

I had been looking forward to this one for a while, since I am a fan of both these actors, and although this drama was good in quite a few aspects (the satire comedy being one), it fell short in one big place. So tune in as I go through all the things I loved, and how I think this drama ultimately could’ve been so much more

In this week’s episode I am joined by guest Becki, and together we chat all things cohabitation dramas.

The challenge was to try and talk about dramas which we haven’t really talked about before, and for me personally to try and talk about dramas from different countries and genres, to show that the cohabitation trope can show up anywhere, and not just romance. 

I hope you enjoy this episode, and share with us what are some of your favourite cohabitation dramas.
