      <title>Episode 10: Balming Tiger</title>
      <link>https://www.instagram.com/pointoforigin.world/</link>
      <description>Point of Origin opens 2025 with South Korean supergroup, Balming Tiger. The group functions more like a multi-media art collective than a band, with nine members who do everything from songwriting, music production, and video direction, to A&amp;R and artist management. Balming Tiger are also progenitors for a new kind of K-Pop, calling the multi-media mastery of the genre while retaining majority control of their music, which is anything but traditional. Despite political tension making global news in Korea, Sameer connects with both the band's frontman and their founder/creative director to discuss K-Pop, dreams, and the peril of too much ambition.

      <description>Sameer sits down with London-based modern Renaissance man, Bakar, with whom Young the Giant shared a stage while on tour with Cage The Elephant. Known for his experimental indie rock style and viral hit "Hell N Back," this summer marked Bakar's first touring experience in the US. After months of talking on tour, he and Sameer finally record the conversation, reflecting on their summer and diving into what makes Bakar who he is. Listen as they discuss Bakar’s life playlist, Camden Town, tour tea, and lazy journalism.

      <description>Sameer Gadhia reconnects with audio didact and musical sponge David Sanders, better known as Jean Dawson. Jean grew up in Tijuana Mexico where he rode the bus into the US for school every day. He even taught himself to play piano on a drawing of a keyboard on the back of his school notebook. Caught between two countries and classifications, Jean and Sameer connected over the feeling of not belonging when he was first on Point of Origin four years prior. The two met in person two years later when Jean opened up for Young The Giant, and then reconnect on Point of Origin a few days before Jean's new album Glimmer of God is released. Sameer calls the album "top-to-bottom masterful." Listen as they discuss Jean Dawson's life playlist, hot sauce in Spain, and mystery birds.
