Shownotes
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.

Don't miss an all AAPI production of HENRY VI: A Trilogy in Two Parts at The Public in NYC
The National Asian American Theatre Company’s acclaimed production of HENRY VI: A TRILOGY IN TWO PARTS brings an all-AANHPI cast to The Public Theater for a decades-spanning saga of Joan of Arc, warring dukes, and the bloody birth of the War of the Roses. Adapted by Stephen Brown-Fried, this is Shakespeare like you've never experienced it.
Part 1: Foreign Wars opens with a king dead, an infant on the throne, and a country already coming apart at the seams. Part 2: Civil Strife picks up nearly 30 years later...and the bloodbath is yet to come. Simmering feuds explode into the War of the Roses, and nothing will ever be the same. Performances from June 9 through July 19!
