    Eyes That Kiss In The Corners | Julie Kim | Bothered Podcast #045

    Get ready to be BOTHERED as Julie Kim calls out a racist gesture that should not still be happening but somehow keeps resurfacing. Julie breaks down a moment where someone pulled their eyes back to mock Asians and why this kind of behavior is not harmless not funny and not something people get to excuse away as ignorance. She connects it to the recent Miss Universe winner from Finland who did the same gesture publicly and unpacks how exhausting it is to watch grown adults pretend they do not know exactly what they are doing. Julie speaks honestly about the casual normalization of anti Asian racism the emotional toll of having to explain why it is offensive and the frustration of seeing the same apologies play out over and over again. This episode is uncomfortable necessary and deeply personal blending humor anger and truth in a way only Julie can. It is about calling things what they are setting boundaries and being done with pretending this behavior is acceptable. 🎧 Listen and follow Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/bothered/id1795849350 Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/2I8ebbGrfwnl2tv8hHpb9F 📱 Follow Julie Kim Instagram https://www.instagram.com/juliekimcomedy TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@juliekimcomedy Website https://www.juliekimcomedy.com 📧 Got a story bothered@juliekimcomedy.com 🎥 Produced by Slate6ix Media https://www.slate6ixmedia.com #BotheredPodcast #JulieKim #Slate6ixMedia #AntiAsianRacism #RacismIsNotFunny #CallItOut #AsianRepresentation #CulturalRespect #ComedyWithPurpose #WomenOfColor #SpeakUp #AccountabilityMatters #ModernCulture #RealConversations #UncomfortableTruths #SocialAwareness #ComedyPodcast #StandupEnergy #RepresentationMatters #CallingItOut

    Introducing Rob Dial: Want to Actually Achieve Your Goals in 2026? Use THIS Action-Based Goal System to Get Back on Track (Even If You Fall Off!) from On Purpose with Jay Shetty. Follow the show: On Purpose with Jay Shetty Jay sits down with Rob Dial for a powerful conversation about discipline, purpose, and why so many people stay stuck even when they know exactly what they should do. Rob reframes discipline not as punishment or pressure, but as an act of self-respect, explaining why choosing discomfort today is often the deepest form of self-love. From building consistency to reshaping identity, he reveals why real change has nothing to do with motivation or willpower, and everything to do with designing a life where doing the right thing becomes automatic. Drawing from his own journey, Rob shares hard-earned lessons on following curiosity, embracing failure, and staying consistent long before results appear. He challenges the idea that purpose is something you “find” all at once, offering instead a more grounded path—one built through action, experimentation, and committing fully to the season you’re in. Together, Jay and Rob explore how fear, past pain, and self-judgment quietly hold people back, and how small, imperfect steps can begin healing old wounds while building confidence, competence, and momentum in the present. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Build Discipline When Motivation Disappears  How to Stay Consistent Even When You Fall Off Track How to Focus on One Habit for 100 Days How to Design Your Environment for Better Habits How to Turn Discipline Into Self-Love How to Not Quit Even When You Don’t See Results  How to Make 2026 Your Best Year by Doing Less, Not More Focus on what you can control today. Do one thing well. Create habits that support the person you want to become, and be patient with yourself as you grow into them.

    Never Look a Re-Gift Horse in the Mouth | Julie Kim | Bothered Podcast #043

    Get ready to be BOTHERED as Julie Kim unpacks the chaotic art of the regift, a realm where social etiquette goes to die and people apparently assume no one can recognize a bag of random leftovers. Fresh off her daughters birthday party, Julie is handed a so called thoughtful present that is actually a grab bag of mismatched toys with the energy of someone cleaning out their car before the party started. To make things even better, she received it right before hopping on a flight to Europe because nothing says bon voyage like carrying a sack of suspiciously familiar trinkets across an ocean. And just when you think the regifting chaos has peaked, Julie cheekily calls out another friend by asking for the gift receipt a polite request that instantly exposes the truth. It is a perfect mix of petty social gymnastics, unhinged gifting strategies and the kind of everyday nonsense that only Julie can spin into pure comedy gold. Buckle up the regift rodeo begins. 🎧 New episodes every Wednesday 🔗 Listen & Follow Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/2I8ebbGrfwnl2tv8hHpb9F?si=s_pH4svdQauND2uPztW-rA Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/bothered/id1795849350  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JulieKimComedy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/juliekimcomedy TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@juliekimcomedy Website: https://www.juliekimcomedy.com 👀 Extended blog, photos, and video: www.juliekimcomedy.com/podcast 📧 Got a story?

    Get ready to be BOTHERED as Julie Kim dives into the wild world of Facebook Marketplace, where logic goes to die and lowballers thrive.

And just when you think it cant get worse, another shopper demands she deliver an item for free even though the post clearly said PICK UPS ONLY in bold, caps, and probably large enough to be seen from space. It is a mix of petty negotiations, unhinged expectations and the kind of everyday nonsense that only Julie can turn into comedy gold.
