Dot Dattie Podcast #54 - D Chris - D Black
Episode notes
This episode of the podcast is available in two versions: English and Korean.
If you speak Korean, skip ahead to the 41-minute mark — the rest of the episode is fully in Korean, including Joey Dots’ segment. (한국어를 하신다면 41분 지점으로 건너뛰어 주세요 — 이후 에피소드는 Joey Dots의 부분을 포함해 전부 한국어로 진행됩니다.)
This episode with D Chris was special. We got creative: I asked questions in English, had them translated into Korean, and D Chris answered in Korean. His answers were then translated back to English, and we edited everything into one full podcast. It was a long process, but totally worth it.
I hope to sit down with D Chris in person one day with a translator, so we can dive deeper into his life before SMP. Huge thanks to D Chris for doing this — I’m truly grateful.
