The Empty Cup

E6: “A true warrior, like tea, shows his strength in hot water.” - Chinese Proverb

Absolutely nothing to see here. Not one whit of a thing that can, should or will be seen. We are the Empty Cup, a beloved podcast that would never grievously wrong their beloved listeners by disappearing for five or so months, and, might we stress again, there is nothing to see here! This is, of course, due to the fact that we are back in the audio medium and tackling many a difficult topic. Be not afraid, dear listener, and join us with a cup of chai in hand. This week, we are earnestly petitioning for validation! We would be delighted to learn of your innovations in the field of breakfast with the use of MILO® (not sponsored, just Aussie and enthusiastic about breakfast), so please describe your enterprises in a voice message on Anchor, and share pictures on Instagram @theemptycuppod or email us at tisexcellentatmosphere@gmail.com

E5: Beauty In Diversitea

Hark! Who goes there? It's—why, it's The Empty Cup? A beloved podcast that hasn't put out an episode in three months? Ah, we are loving that new haircut of yours! And how're the kids?  Needless to say, it's been a while. In fact, it has been so long, we have shucked all semblance of consistency in format. Today, join us in this great hurrah of a celebration of what it means to go about our lives in a multicultural society. In which our liminality is a shoddily constructed pinata, and we, alongside our two special guests, are swinging a baseball bat with absolutely no inhibitions.    Take up your own cup! It can be filled with anything, because none of us were drinking the same brew. The possibili-teas are endless!    Leave a voice message on Anchor, DM us on Instagram @theemptycuppod, or email us at tisexcellentatmosphere@gmail.com    Theme: The Zeppelin by Blue Dot Sessions

E4: Oops, We've Run Out Of Tea Puns

Hello! We are back for our fourth episode, where we chat with a lovely special guest about high school, careers, identity, and even the Ivy Leagues?? Meanwhile, enjoy our usual tea tomfoolery and battles of (questionable) wit.   Please fix yourself a piping hot mug of tea to drink with us, this week's brew being: Jasmine Tea!  Apologies in advance for the crappy audio! We experienced some technical difficulties. We will come back swinging next time with audio so clean you can lick it.  This week, we have quite a line-up of questions for you to answer. If you know, you know. Leave a voice message on Anchor, DM us on Instagram, @theemptycuppod, or email us at tisexcellentatmosphere@gmail.com Theme: The Zeppelin by Blue Dot Sessions

E3: The Me-tea-morphosis

Shocking revelations this week as we feature a special guest, and monologues on navigating identity, growing up, culture, and the rest of our lives as they are shaped by our pasts — so, all the good, lighthearted stuff. If you want, fix a cup of our weekly brew before tuning in! This week is: Chamomile! This week, we'd like to know about any books/movies/art that have left lasting impressions on you and your life.

E2: Quaran-tea-n Quabbles

With one whole episode under our belts, we spout on current events, tips for coping, maintaining habits and some food for thought (or, cup for contemplation).  If you want, fix a cup of our weekly brew before tuning in! This week is: Green Tea!
