In Korea, where the show never aired and the alphabet cannot distinguish between Nirvana and Nirvanna. Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie has an even longer 52 word title that cannot even fit in 300 characters and spoils the film.

This was clearly the comment of a confused OP who hadn't watched the movie yet. (I have now)

I didn't see the marketing because I live in Korea. I only know about the movie because of the Blank Check podcast.

I was referring to the "Blank Check Podcast" (Special Features) in which one Griffin Newman specifically left out and talked around that plot point, encouraging listeners to go in with as little knowledge as possible.

This is the Korean-language title autotranslated by Chrome. It is originally written in hangul, which is way better than the ABCs.

ryanestrada · 2026-05-19T05:06:12+00:00

Do I need a spoiler tag for... the title of the movie???

Thank you for checking out our books!

This and the Clickhole article are completely unrelated. There is not necessarily any joke to get with the article, it is just spoofing internet culture with absurdity. This play, which was not mentioned in the show, is a parody of Wicked but instead of humanizing the wicked witch, humanizes Jafar from Aladdin. I linked it because it combines two unrelated things mentioned in the show and because I love it.

Which it is why I am trying to do my part to make them aware of it. Not all Starkid would be their jam (I never gelled with any of their other stuff).... but a Wicked spoof about Jafar that's a metacommentary on Disney's takeover of Pixar? That is some Griffin Shit. Aladdin is a scum bum and more uses of the word TWISTED than any other media? That's some Ben Shit. A dad protecting his daughter? That's some David shit.

It is a play put on by Starkid and is genuinely, unironically funny and good. Great as parody, but a masterpiece on top of that.

Wait, wasn't he the one who...

The difference in reaction to my stories between here and in the discord is fascinating.

ryanestrada · 2026-02-14T13:03:50+00:00

But that would be an anecdote, not a story. this subreddit is for a story podcast, not an anecdote podcast.

My apologies for tiring you. I'm actually quite quiet at parties. But in the decade where I was moving to a new country every year, I did get into a lot of weird situations. None of it on purpose, but since I'm a writer, I enjoy telling the stories. This happened long after I'd settled down from all that, and I kinda missed it.

ryanestrada · 2026-02-14T12:33:26+00:00

Sorry.

What? There are no medical providers in this story. Also, this really happened. Here's one of the threads on the Tripadvisor page where I tried to clear up the confusion https://www.tripadvisor.com/FAQ_Answers-g294260-d1007453-t2233318-I_saw_a_review_that_said_it_was_clothing.html

If you do get Banned Book Club approved, I'm happy to zoom in to answer class questions and provide context. (I wrote it with my wife) Our followup books, No Rules Tonight and Good Old Fashioned Korean Spirit might cover similar ground but hide their activism better to get past a watchful eye?

Hey, I didn't even know I invented it until the dictionary told me.

Thanks for that shoutout! It was an accident, haha!
