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.

Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin
Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
