Customer Reviews
Important conversations
The podcast has a winning assembly of bright, articulate and self-aware individuals who, each episode, take on a topic of Asian-American identity, something of growing importance in our culture, and one that doesn’t get as much attention as it should. Compelling listening.
Definitely Recommend Listening!
I finished the “Gossip Girl, but not really” episode, and it was so nice hearing my experiences being mirrored with the hosts’. The topics were well thought out, and overall it was very entertaining!
Worth listening
Can’t wait for the next episode!
