Now boarding: first class, for the third episode of Zouk’s Cubes! Jason Mantzoukas returns for an ATC takeover. This time, Kulap is getting the deets on how SuChin and Jason pack for an international trip. Jason is fresh off ten days in the U.K., while SuChin is prepping for her family’s trip to South Korea. It’s Jason’s jigsaw puzzle packing vs. SuChin’s clear Ziploc bags. There will be finger shoving, tarp tucking, and plenty of cubes.

Kulap is turning up the heat for her trip in Miami, but these pants are not it. Find her latest return at https://shorturl.at/hFGIO

Spring has sprung, and the Aunties want to feel the wind on their skin (moisturized and with SPF, of course). The Pak-Benders embarked on Van Life, which has been long in the making. The journey had its ups and downs, and SuChin is reflecting on lessons learned. Like, what does dinnertime look like for four people in a treehouse? Meanwhile, Kulap has been attending shows on shows, and talks about what that means for her after the pandemic and writer’s strike.

You’re in a cult! You’re in a cult! We’re allll in a cult! Amanda Montell, host of Sounds Like A Cult and all-around smartest person, joins the Aunties this week. She talks about her new book “The Age of Magical Overthinking,” and dives into why we add more things into our life when the solution is to pare down (the call is coming inside the house!) But that won’t stop Amanda – or the Aunties – from collecting things that just scratch that itch. Like lemon bells, LED candlesticks and bike figurines that remind her of Amsterdam. To quote Taylor Swift: “I got a blank space, baby…” and I’ll fill it with knick knacks.

These greeting card prices are getting out of control, and Su has had enough.

Author and playwright Susan Lieu joins the pod this week to create a trifecta of Asian Auntie shenanigans. She talks about writing her first memoir, “The Manicurist’s Daughter,” which chronicles her search for answers after losing her mother to a botched tummy tuck. It’s an emotionally raw conversation that will leave you hopeful that generational healing is just as real as the trauma. Then, the Aunties dive into her cart, which is truly an ode to Costco and its generous return policy. Susan also shares her solution to inflating matcha latte prices. 

Lemonada has teamed up with Apple Books to bring you the Lemonada Book Club. “The Manicurist’s Daughter” by Susan Lieu is our audiobook of the month! Listen here.
