    Completing college is one of the most bittersweet experiences you go through in life. On one hand, you are relieved that you finished and excited for what the future has in store for you. On the other hand, is the anxiety that comes with finding your next step in life and having to go through it yourself. Today, we speak to you about the trials the three of us have face to get to where we are today; and some tricks and tips that might help you when finding a job in this competitive market.  The three of us also have unique perspectives in our work philosophy as Alex works in a corporate SaaS position, Phillip works in the real estate industry as an entrepreneur, and Winston is a unique hybrid of both (corporate marketing, and entrepreneur at heart.) We hope you get some great info from this podcast as we had a great time recording this one! If you have any questions for us regarding our work fields feel free to contact us at any time.

    The Asian Trailblazers

    The reason we started this podcast is because we wanted to challenge the boundaries of Asian American identity. We love celebrating all the diverse and unique experiences of Asian Americans here at Off the Soju. A recent poll done by the leading Asian Americans to unite for change (LAAUNCH) revealed that the three adjectives most used to describe Asians Americans were smart, hardworking, and nice. Although these adjectives seem to be desirable traits, not all of us align with that perception. Some of us want to be sexy, cool, outspoken, confident, passionate, etc. Today, we celebrate the Asians trailblazers who defied the boundaries of what an Asian can be. Those who we admired while growing up where we could say, “Hey that person looks like me.. and they’re doing that.” ——— Follow Kimmy!

    Father's Day

    Happy Father’s Day!! Father’s Day is a holiday that fosters many different emotions depending on your experience with your pops. There are those who have a special bond and loving relationship, those who have a bittersweet relationship, and those who have no relationship whatsoever. However, Father’s Day is a day that is worth pondering about. A day that forces you to realize the importance of the father figure. On this episode of off the soju, we bring in a very special guest! He is an important person in both mine and Winston’s lives. He is none other than mr Jaxon Tai! This episode is an intimate one, as we share our experience with fatherhood and what we think fatherhood means. No soju necessary for this one (although it may help.) ——— Follow us @offthesoj on instagram for updates on new episodes and content, as we are planning loads of exciting episodes and other content for you guys. ——— Send us a voice message! www.anchor.fm/off-the-soju ——— Brought to you by Phillip Kim & Winston Yang

    Kyle "DJ Asthmatc" Dacallos, NAACP, Boogie, White People Can't Dance

    We are living through a post-Trump era, filled with many racial tensions and a vast divide in opinions and political stances. In a time like this, it’s so easy to point out the negatives and have a pessimistic outlook on America. There are those who walk around with weary shoulders and there are those who march with their heads up high, fighting for the possibilities that lie in the future. For our fourth episode, we bring to you Kyle “DJ Asthmatc” Decallos. Kyle is a man of fitness, both physically and mentally. He is a DJ, physical fitness manager and trainer, activist, and the current president of NAACP’s San Jose youth branch. Join us as Kyle schools us on the history of oppression on minorities and how our roots relate to our identity. Kyle has his own podcast!

    Welcome to Off The Soju!

    Off The Soju: Defying the boundaries of Asian-American identity through stories and honest conversation. Drinking soju can often lead to hazy memory, throbbing headaches, and nights you’d prefer to forget. However, they can also lead to conversations that reach passionate depths that are seemingly unattainable without a bit of liquid joy. Conversations free of ego, tension, and inhibitions. These are the types of conversations that we wish to bring to you in each and every episode as we discuss a wide range of topics, experiences, and current events involving Asian-American culture. Thank you for joining us for our first ever episode where we discuss what the podcast is all about, our origin stories as Asian-Americans, old and new Asian television shows/media, and the recent attacks on the Asian elderly. Follow us @offthesoj on Instagram for updates on new episodes and content, as we are planning loads of exciting episodes and other content for you guys.
