Nuances: Our Asian Stories

Nuances is an award-nominated audio space where guests from a wide range of Asian ethnic groups, careers, countries, and communities explore our often complicated relationships with our culture(s) and how they shape us. It can be a source of validation, a space for healing, a call to self-reflection, or a good laugh, often all at the same time. The current 5th season is a limited series exploring wholesome queer stories from premodern Asia, what they can teach us about our cultures, and why they were forgotten in modern times. It features scholars and guest co-hosts from the queer Asian community. We talk about the careers we’ve pursued: winemaker, writer, actor, musician, politician, activist, brain scientist, care worker, doctor, & so many more. Our intersectional conversations explore how our experiences affect our views on anti-racism, disability justice, feminism, LGBTQIA+ rights, religion, etc., and how we can create change in our own circles to build solidarity across movements. Tune in for fun, uplifting, yet thought-provoking conversations with the Asian diaspora at the intersection of career, culture and community. Support this podcast: f.k.a.

    Feed drop: Fruitbowl - An oral history of queer sex

    Did you enjoy the last episode "5. Gods, Sex and the Patriarchy"? I'll be back with episode 6 of Queering Premodern Asia very soon! A new opportunity to interview another scholar came up and I couldn't pass it up. I think it would greatly add to the remaining episodes, hence the wait. But I didn't want to leave you hanging so in the meantime, I'm doing a few feed swaps with podcasts that I think you might enjoy if you're enjoying this series.    Warning: this episode has explicit content and is definitely not suitable for work or young ears.   We’ve been focusing on premodern queer history on this show, but the Fruitbowl podcast is an oral history of queer sex today. The first 4 seasons of fruitbowl were interviews with queer individuals sharing their coming of age stories and their journey discovering their sexual identity. The current season is a compilation of the past interviews that outline the common threads in these diverse stories. The episode I’m sharing today is S2E2 with Aditya who grew up in India, and eventually moved to NYC.   Episode description: Raised in Hyderbad, India, Aditya didn’t come out until his second year of college in New Delhi. Luckily his family and friends accepted him, but an awkward experience he had at a bath house in Hong Kong served as a reminder that queer people can often be as racist and socially elitist as straight people. Over the years, Aditya has learned to follow his instincts as he has navigated his journey from India to New York City. It hasn’t been easy, but he eventually found his tribe.  If you enjoy this episode, feel free to subscribe to Fruitbowl wherever you listen or connect with them on Instagram.   NUANCES CONTACT Instagram | TikTok | Web | LinkedIn | Twitter Host: Lazou Subscribe to Lazou's Substack
