This is CRACKING THE COCONUT, a not-so-average podcast that tackles taboo topics in the Filipino community with hopes to bridge the gap between Filipino-Americans and Filipinos back home in the motherland. CRACKING THE COCONUT is hosted by two millennial Filipino-Americans, Carla Jay and Jasmine, who both have diverse, vibrant backgrounds. Together they have 13 years of working in the entertainment industry where they noticed a scarcity of their people working backstage and in the mix of L.A.’s biggest live events. Each week, Carla and Jasmine will crack coconuts through unfiltered, safe-space discussions. Let’s find common ground and shift perspectives, by cracking one coconut at a time. New episodes drop every Tuesday. Slide thru! www.crackingthecoconut.com IG & FB: @crackingthecoconut Twitter & TikTok: @crackingthecoco

    Episode 14: Cracking the Comments

    For many Filipino-Americans, it is not easy to have conversations about the serious topics. In fact, sometimes we can be avoidant or passive when it comes to tackling the tough stuff. On this episode, we get down with some comments from the Cracking the Coconut TikTok page. These topics include: “Why representation is important to Filipino-Americans,” “Filipinos in the Philippines don’t like being misrepresented,” “Filipino-Americans called HALF-BREEDS,” and many other touchy subjects.

    Coconut Juice - Episode 1: The Little Mermaid & Representation

    This mini episode is all about The Little Mermaid -- well, more so about the amazing Halle Bailey playing Ariel and how that affects representation and the Filipino culture.

    Episode 13 - Part-Time Filipino, Full-Time Clout Chaser

    In this episode of Cracking the Coconut, Jasmine and Carla talk about Filipino Americans only claiming their heritage when it's convenient for them. But that's far from the truth! Filipino culture in the diaspora is alive and well, and Filipinos all over the world are doing what they can to stay connected to their culture, despite assimilation.

    Episode 12 - Why Can't We Just F*cking Get Along?

    It seems like #Filipinos outside of the Philippines are always having to "prove" their Filipinoness to mainland Filipinos. Whether it's speaking a full convo in Tagalog, or being quizzed on geography, #Fil-Ams are constantly being questioned by their own community. It f*cking sucks. Website: crackingthecoconut.com

    Episode 10 - Sex, Hot Dogs & Vegan Garlic Shrimp

    In the SEASON FINALE of "Cracking the Coconut," we do things a little different. This episode's topic? EVERYTHING! We pull topics out of a coconut and shoot the sh*t. From sex, our most daring adventures, and answering the tough question: is a hotdog a sandwich, episode 10 takes some fun twists and turns. We also do a little mukbang and indulge on a vegan "Hawaiian" plate.

    Episode 9 - Bless, Dab & Other Filipino Traditions

    Filipinos have many traditions. From “blessing” their elders, wearing polka dots on New Years Eve, and even sending money back home, Filipinos are unique in how they celebrate their FIlipinoness. And honestly, we’re here for all of it. Visit us at on IG and FB @crackingthecoconut as well as Twitter and TikTok @crackingthecoco Also, check us out on our website at www.crackingthecoconut.com

    Episode 8 - Our Childhood Was A Lie

    As kids, our parents, grandparents, and any elder would tell us universal ideas and pass them off as truths. Some ideas were harmless and are now comical to think about, while others were toxic and were the mind bombs that completely shifted our perspectives. In episode 8 of “CRACKING THE COCONUT,” we talk all about the silly and serious things our elders have told us growing up.
