    Roren 2

    Roren is back on again for a chat about personal finance and then we go on a few tangents like macroeconomics, the church, and whatever our enneagram 8 gut feelings wanted to go. Honestly very helpful if you are a 2nd gen immigrant who did not grow up with financial literacy. A big roadblock to many dreams and futures. A necessary evil I might add to aide the marginalized. You gotta know the system to help solve the inherent problems within it.  Resources: www.investopedia.org "Total Money Makeover"- Dave Ramsey "Rich Dad, Poor Dad"- Robert Kiyosaki

    Tong

    I like to think of him as the Chinese Dr Fauci. He has a wide range of interests and beginning his interests in public health a midst a pandemic we have not seen in 100 years. A thoughtful sensitive man exploring what it means to be in healthcare, politics, all while trying to be faithful to his innermost identity. He's a good guy and if you're in DC, buy him a meal please. Or maybe a fiddle leaf.  Links Music: https://www.bensound.com Taste The Nation https://www.hulu.com/series/taste-the-nation-with-padma-lakshmi-53d48a66-d254-4e4f-89a1-277ec6c57368

    Daniel DDS

    Daniel DDS, my buddy Daniel calls in and we talk about his hemorrho..... I mean dating life! We go off the rails at some point but when you've got Dane Cook, cancer detecting sex toys, and the Jesuits, you got yourself a GD podcast.  Links Music: https://www.bensound.com Revisionist History about Jesuit Priests https://open.spotify.com/episode/1IRPLtfP40PhGM0WYVqV38 https://open.spotify.com/episode/72P6CBWNA3UzpbxWibCCQL Philosophize This https://philosophizethis.org/

    Roren

    Roren C- She's got the personality of a doberman but the heart of a pug. Roren talks about her journey from female pastor at a Methodist Korean church to smoking cigarettes and playing craps in the back alley of the mean streets of dc. Part of that was true. She is a unique person that has a lot to share from her perspective.  Links Music: https://www.bensound.com

    Dr. Francis

    Dr. Frankie is a board certified family practice physician who I've known for years. In our circles we like to call him Frank the Bank. Frankie, Joyce, and I talk about a whole range of topics (sorry for the length) because that's how we normally talk about things. Honestly we went much longer but we had to keep it at a cool crisp 70 minutes for brevity sake. I've been to Argentina, Bolivia, Mexico, and even rural Illinois with this guy. He's close to getting that coveted MD+MDIV dual degree and we discuss that and sort of the Asian American church scene which Frankie knows all too well.  Links Music: https://www.bensound.com

    NYC

    I'm back! I came back from NYC and was staying in Harlem with a world wide pandemic going on and a country wide protest against police brutality. It was an incredible trip and this episode is part of me processing everything that went down.  Links Music: https://www.bensound.com The New Jim Crow https://newjimcrow.com/

    Basic Finance

    I grew up an immigrant kid. I had no financial acumen and I was super mission minded in helping to serve the poor and needy. After a few years of adulting, I realized without financial literacy I would be doing a disservice to my family and the people I'm actually helping. I fear the idolization of wealth and money but my journey has come to where I am beginning to understand the system in order to guide myself and other through it effectively. I am not a financial advisor, please consult one.  Links: Music: https://www.bensound.com Dave Ramsey https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=dave+ramsey+total+money+makeover Tim Ferris https://fourhourworkweek.com/ Rich Dad Poor Dad https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&sxsrf=ALeKk02YqqSPGIWI_dde0U6SEgkURvvPjA%3A1593294511965&ei=r773Xqm3OsL2-gT-zpXwDQ&q=rich+dad+poor+dad+pdf&oq=rich+dad+poor+dad+pdf&gs_lcp=CgZwc3ktYWIQAzIECAAQQzIECAAQQzICCAAyAggAMgIIADICCAAyAggAMgIIADICCAAyAggAOgQIABBHOgcIABAUEIcCUL4GWJ8LYJcMaABwAXgAgAGhAYgB_QKSAQMwLjOYAQCgAQGqAQdnd3Mtd2l6&sclient=psy-ab&ved=0ahUKEwjpyqHL_KLqAhVCu54KHX5nBd4Q4dUDCAs&uact=5

    Calling

    What exactly does it mean to be "called" somewhere? Is it destiny? Is it providence? God's will? Or maybe just a plain bad decision. On this episode we will explore what does this mean and how it affected us growing up as young adults.  Music: https://www.bensound.com

    Dating

    I am 100% happy I'm done with dating. There are so many ways of thinking about dating, but what if what we were taught growing up on the subject of dating is incomplete? Joyce and Sam breakdown their own mishaps, online dating, and the sociopath test.
