Episode description

Dìdi is a 2024 coming-of-age film, written, directed, and produced by Sean Wang in his directorial debut. The film follows a 13-year-old Taiwanese-American boy as he navigates the challenges of adolescence, his relationship with his mother, and his love of skateboarding. In a departure for movies covered on this podcast, it's really good.


Kevin and Mike discuss the film and then go on some weird semi-related tangents around deathbed summons and snack cakes, the Scottish pop band Belle & Sebastian (who are featured on the movie's soundtrack), and their own embarrassing adolescent memories. This episode is messy and all over the place, kind of like how being 13 years old feels like. So yeah, we meant to do that. It's conceptual.
