In this episode, JR is joined by her friend Eric from Cinematic Adventures! The two discuss Squid Game, with an emphasis on the final season.

NOTES: Season 1 of Squid Game has 9 episodes, not 8 as stated.

JR misspoke and called Park Gyu Young, Park Gyu Ri.

JR calls Heirs a “light, teen drama”—that is very much not the case, check out her Single Scoop on it featuring OldR.
