The chapter-length focus of this episode is from Katy Sprinkel's 2021 book, BTS: One. The two back-to-back chapters highlight the group's success in business terms & their use of that success to support important causes & make the world a better place.
A weekly podcast focused on BTS, through the lens of books about the group...one chapter at a time. Hosted by a university librarian (aka, BTS Bookworm) whose appreciation for BTS was born, not through the group's music, choreo, or all-around good looks, but through books. If you love BTS & love books too, this is the podcast for you!
