I know nothing about making a leap to a new country to start a new life. Thankfully my parents can tell me all about it as 1st generation Indian immigrants. Join me as I interview my dad, Dr. Sanjay Jagdale (with guest appearances from my mom and many other South Asian immigrants) to learn more about their stories, record pieces of Asian-American history, and turn a Generation Gap into a Generation Map.
