Dumb is the most genuine and no filter host. He makes the guests feel so comfortable. Love you Dumb! And thank you for inviting Eric!
When you're soo used to Eric being the Interviewee, it's cool to hear everything from his POV. And all the lil struggles in between and how Dumb also relates to some of it.❤
Hi
Love Eric Nam! Such a talented human being! ❤
I waited 5 years for this wonderful moment, THANK YOU DUMB! This podcast episode made me so happy ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I feel like Eric was saying in a roundabout way that Asian American/Canadian musicians still have a hard time being seen a simply American/Canadian musicians period and being marketed as such without any reliance of the "foreign exoticism" or popularity of kpop or jpop. Eric Nam's recent music is really just pop to anybody who has bothered to listen to it. But at the same time he did get his music start in Korea and gained enough popularity from his time in Korea that it definitely helped him in becoming an indie artist aiming more at an English speaking audience. Highly doubtful without that Korea experience that Eric could've become an English language musician or it would've been a hell of a lot harder to grow his audience.
I remember seeing Dumbfoundead in Montreal and in NYC shows so very long ago as being one of the early Asian American musicians trying to make it in USA. It was very hard to build an audience back then.
Thank you for talking about our country Brasil! 🇧🇷 We Love you Eric Nam
I admire Eric for being so genuine in all of his conversations ❤️
@ 49:15 i think its the first time Eric has ever mentioned the actual reason of going Indie music way .Its honestly heartbreaking but I feel it was best risk and for sure it had its own complexity but I am very sure by 2025 Eric will be great multi hyphenated artist who is greatly admired (us fans still do 😊 ) by GP . He has also dipped into voice and acting ...for sure he has a very bright future !!!
Good luck and best wishes Eric !!!
Eric has such a great brain it draws me in everytime.
Omg, I saw Eric Nam’s pic on the thumbnail and just had to watch. Watching now.
The level of topics discussed is incredible. The range, the depth, everything
Thank you for mentioning my beautiful country! 🇧🇷 Brasil just hits different and we are built different too. We are passionate people and know how to show love and appreciation.
Cries in consultant😭 haha I’m glad you followed your dream
6:30 "they comment like it's Russian bots but they're real people" LOL 🤣
My guy is Avatar Aang
This back and forth of interviewer and quest situation is such a vibe. This episode was so good!!!!
Nice! Been waiting for this interview. Love their work. Both inspiring in their own way.
2 great interviewers interviewing each other... GOLD! // Eric is surprisingly honest and I do appreciate it! For me kpop is heavily into fashion and idols going to fashion shows... since I have 0 interest in it, I feel kinda detached! /// I would love to see more acting roles in different styles from Dumbfounded (feeling so awkward saying his name like this)
So happy to have seen Eric Nam on both world tours!! Great interview, great conversation 😊
Dumb is an amazing host. He made everything seems so casual and natural.
어디서도 들어보지 못한 에릭남의 이야기...!! 토크쇼 게스트 자주 나와주라~
Thanks Eric. We are waiting for you in Africa 🌍❤🤗
I like when the regular crew are on the couch but I also really enjoy when Dumb interviews someone 1:1. Great conversation, lots of interesting insights. Thanks guys!
This is a really good episode/conversations being had
🇧🇷 So glad you enjoyed the concert here in Brazil, Eric. Btw, Brazil's population is 203 million people
I happened upon this interview and am super impressed with both of the guys. You have gotten a new fan here, I will continue to check all the videos out...THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for this great interview!! I'm used to seeing Eric interviewing others so it was refreshing seeing him the one being interviewed 🥹
Found Dumbfoundead when there was an AZN channel and he was in a rap battle. Years later, as a mature in years fan, I met him at a meet and greet at Hawaiian Brian’s. Years later, on one of his world tours, I met Eric Nam at a meet and greet at The Republik. Appreciate their candor. Just learned that Eric’s cd was added to the National Museum of American History. 💕
i really loved them talking about mental health and social anxiety, the act of going to the bar to simply have a task to do i've definitely done when i was uncomfortable.
From philippines..
Proud #1 fan of eric nam
Watching this currently while wearing the tour shirt feels right
These two personalities together = Entertainment ! Thanks for this collab!! 💛💛
에릭남 …. IS Soooo Cutie 🥰 🫶🏽🐼🪩🔥🎙️🍊🧡
not " you have a small forehead" hahaha
Such a great interview! I could listen to Eric talk all day.
I can’t believe Eric is finally on your show! Love him, love your convo together.
I discovered both of you after my deep dive into BTS years ago. I had to find out who Eric Nam was after watching After School Club. I am a big fan and i love your music and the content you produce on Dive studio. PS: I am OG American woman and i am happy about current light being shone on K-culture 💜
This is really interesting and real, thanks very much.Saw Eric in Dublin, was a great concert.
Loved this episode, Eric seems like a smart and down to earth dude. I can't imagine having to adapt that fast to another culture and just wing it, dude has some balls for sure. I have a couple guest suggestions for ya bruh, Jinsang (Asian American lo-fi artist) and Eric Reprid (AA rapper) 🙏
ERIC NAM ❤❤❤❤
Eric be everywhere
I feel like kpop is where jazz was in the early 1940's before it separated into bebop and swing. I wouldn't be surprised if an underground korean music movement is forming with creative musicians who feel stiffled by the commercialization of kpop that is happening on a global level now. Time will tell if this idea is true.
great seeing these two catch up ☺!
Wow! Thank you so much
Speaking of Tablo. Can you get him on here dumb? That’ll be EPIK!
❤😂👍enjoy watching/listen to this. Just randomly came across.
Glad you enjoyed it
Ayee Thank you for having Eric!!!
I want to hear Eric's "I'm so happy" songs :)
Such a good episode! Props for Alex bringing up the Avatar animated series and Eric's thoughts about voicing Aang and the stuff that comes along with it!
HANGOOK CHINGUUU HANGOOK CHINGUUUU HANGOOK CHINGUUUU HANGOOK CHINGUUUU
What are the chances we can get Eric on Tiger Belly? Lol.
Wowwwwww

Eric Nam "your eyes are those beautiful gates...that lead to your heart which is my home" everything. 😌 Well...all NamNation want to live there and unfortunately my kind of living beings are still homeless.

Ericcc
Loved the episode 👍👍👍
ERICCCC!
❤❤❤❤❤ oo Johnnie's memoir 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Eric❤
I wanna see Eric Nam and Bobby Lee together in a same room... Please make it happen... please..
Eric 😎💖 we love u 🫶🏼🇲🇽
It's so funny that we all want "celebrities" or people who are watching us to acknowledge it publicly and share with the community they've built instead of quietly cheering! I love the conversation, especially about what Eric feels about the future of K-pop.
inception the support! wonderful idea
Hope one day this man be big star in Hollywood. Eric we love you man
Getting thrown into another culture is sooo nerve wracking but it's reality for so many people in so many jobs. You just have to survive 😂
There is a very real difference between appreciation and interest in Korean culture vs obsession with Korean culture (which can manifest as very unhealthy behavior), so I respect the fact that Dumb and Eric want the media and general public to just take the time to explore a bit more of each niche involved in all those different buckets related to entertainment and Korean artists and come to them with that respect. I love K dramas and enjoy the music of several K pop artists, but I am very aware that those 2 niche areas don't represent ALL Korean culture.
Yay!😍😍😍
Thanks!
OMG, Dumb!! It's Ericcccc!! 🥰🥰🥰🩵🩵🩵
great ep. You guys look soo great, and soo young !! Drop the skin care routine. And dumb Bobby named dropped you on armchair expert this Monday haha ..
Great episode Dumb. I always thought Eric Nam was just a pretty boy who got things handed to him, but gained a lot of respect for him through this interview. Very well-spoken, and hard-working man who deserved the success he's gotten~
Can we get Hana Vu on here next? I think she is a trailblazer in her music seane and is a reintroduction to the punk sound that we haven't seen in a long time in the Asian community.
Ditto !love dumb
❤❤❤
28:10 FYI, the term "wife beaters" came from the late 70s - 80s movies where you would see a guy abusing his girl and he usually was only wearing a tank top. It became a common theme in film and so therefore if you saw a man wearing one we would joking refer to those movie characters portrayed.
❤❤❤❤

Eric being interviewed instead of hosting…
why doesn't Eric do an album with half Korean songs and half English songs. He even speaks Spanish so why not throw in a couple pf Spanish songs too??? why does it always have to be one thing? I don't get it.
