A New Administration

anti-asian violence and the model minority myth

These past few months, many hate crimes targeting asians have gained much media attention, sparking protest against anti-asian violence and racism. There are few words to truly sum up the anger, frustration, fear, sadness, and hope that many of us, particularly asians, currently face, and still struggle to process and fight back. In this episode, we, as asian americans ourselves, process the string of publicized attacks, voicing our own fears, hopes, and experiences that have even preceded the violence we face today.

ambition in a pandemic

The pandemic has been going on for nearly a year, leaving many of us unmotivated for school, work, or personal pursuits. Beyond the rather mundane day-to-day life of school and quarantine, we've begun to contemplate what life beyond and after school might look like, our hopes and concerns for the future and how we might get there. Join us for a somewhat existential conversation on ambition!

A New Administration

It's a day after the election, January 21st. We reflect on the past four years as well as our hopes for the next four: a possible end to the pandemic, semi-functioning government, the usual. Join us for Google Translate-voiceover filled banter and fun! (Katrina couldn't speak, so she used good ol' Google Translate.)

Tiger Parents

They're feared, revered, and have a complicated history: tiger parents. In this episode, we ponder the oftentimes overbearing nature of parents, and how that has affected relationships with our own parents and siblings. It's a chill time, so grab some tea or toast, and listen along!

colorism

Colorism. What one might call a side-effect of racism. It is often excused or pushed aside, even within communities of color. We'll talk about colorism in all its shapes and forms, from beauty standards to "preferences" and how it extends beyond the color of your skin.
