    Episode 10: Was it all a Dream?

    Happy New Year, folks! Welcome to Episode 10 of and the final episode of Season 1. We’re closing out 2020 by asking ourselves: was it all a dream? We reflect on 2020 and the living dreamstate we’ve all been in, discuss our very own dreams (and sometimes nightmares), and try our hand at a new talent: dream interpretation! We hope that in 2021 we can live a more limitless life and actualize our best potential!

    Episode 9: Represent!

    There’s some representation in this HOUSE. Welcome to the 9th episode, where your fabulous co-hosts King & Christine dive into Asian American representation in the media (or lack thereof). We chat about what we’ve seen in the past, present and what we’d like to see in the future...and believe us when we say there are some deep cuts in this episode. Also: we discuss comedy queens, decorative turtleneck accessories, King gets alarmed by Christine’s organization tendencies...and more!

    Episode 8: Tired, but Optimistic!

    Moodies, this here is a special episode: it’s about the 2020 Election Week in the US of A! And let us tell you...that week had us WEAK. We did a pre-record before the 2020 Presidential Election, as well as a recording post-election, so you can hear our real time reactions! We talked about managing stress during Election Week, how monumental it was, and how truly hopeful and excited we are for the next gen. Also - other countries being excited we’re breaking up with our current prez, Christine gets clocked live for not having up-to-speed Star Wars knowledge, and trashy romantic television of a bygone era!

    Episode 7: Riding the waves of NOSTALGIA

    Hey Moodies! We’re setting sail today and riding the waves of nostalgia! Today we take a look back at how things used to be. We cover everything from where we were at the beginning stages of the pandemic to the havoc that’s been wrecked under this administration, and take a glimpse at the ‘cancel’ culture phenomenon. Also: Jessica Simpson, Mariah Carey...and does wearing strangely patterned pants hurt anyone other than yourself?

    Episode 6: LEAF Laugh Love

    Hey Moodies! Welcome to the middle of October and to a very special SIXTH episode of the Insert Mood Podcast (that’s more than halfway to ten). We’ve landed smack dab in the middle of spooky season, so put on your flannel, grab your pumpkin spice latte and dust off those horror movies because we’re taking you on a one-way ticket to Halloween Town.  We talk costumes of Halloween past (shout out to the ‘rents for some of the best ones!), haunted houses for Asian Americans, as well as King and Christine’s latest entertainment travels (The Haunting of Bly Manor vs. Call the Midwife - bet you can’t guess whose choices those are) and much, much more!

    Episode 5: Knowing Your Truth

    Hi Moodies! In this episode of the Insert Mood Podcast, Christine & King hunker down to discuss things that we never thought would happen, from surviving a wildfire to the passing of our dear RBG. To borrow the words of Alicia Keys: “This world is on fire” - and now is the time to not only know your truth, but to present and live for truth. Listen in as we both navigate some difficult topics and hopefully inspire you to get out of your comfort zone. ‘Cause at the end of the day, ‘we’re all in this together’ (shout out to High School Musical).

    Episode 2: When the ‘steaks’ are high, we’re all WELL DONE.

    Welcome to the 2nd episode of the [Insert Mood] Podcast, featuring your fabulous co-hosts, King Choi and Christine Vo. In today’s podcast we discuss today’s mood: “Well Done.” Are we referring to steak, or is this a compliment to ourselves for uploading this 2nd podcast? We discuss the Zoom fatigue that’s been plaguing us all, how winning isn’t always everything, and how when you don’t set your own boundaries...the boundary finds you. Also: alien probing and bringing back Derelicte!
