Hey! We're two best friends from Shanghai in our mid-twenties, half a world apart, trading stories across time zones. We blend corporate deadlines with everyday daydreams - from career highs to the realities of day-to-day life. Raised in Shanghai, we bring our third culture lens to the funny, messy, and real parts of life. Tune in for honest convos, laughs, and a little long-distance bestie energy.

    44. Are You a Hoarder… or Just Prepared?

    Where's the line between being prepared and being a hoarder? In the grand finale of "we have moved!!", we unpack the many forms of hoarding that we have discovered as part of moving, from sentimental keepsakes and "just in case" items to digital clutter and the growing pile of cables, boxes, and reusable bags we can't seem to part with. Plus, we confess the random things we secretly hoard: concert tickets, takeaway sauce packets, hotel toiletries, old uni notes, mismatched socks, empty jars, phone boxes, souvenirs, and even things from past relationships. Everything that we're convinced we'll need one day (or should we say one of us tsk tsk). As always, you can reach out to us at: timezonetalkspod@gmail.com

    43. Our thoughts on AI (as laymen)

    41. Job Non-Negotiables: Salary, Stability, or Sanity?

    In this episode, we get into our biggest non-negotiables when it comes to work: salary, flexibility, culture, growth, reputation, and whether a good manager can completely change a job experience. No longer fresh graduates, we talk about how our career priorities have shifted with experience and whether passion at work is overrated. We go through rapid fire questions like: would you take a high-paying job you dislike but more importantly, we just chat through the careers we've had so far.

    40. Current Obsessions: Media & Habits (Part 2)

    Welcome back to part 2 of our current obsessions! In this episode, we talk about recent media favorites, from TV shows, to YouTube, to podcasts. We (mostly Claudia) then go on a spiel of voluntary and involuntary habits that set up a day for success (it's related to obsessions and is not as out there as this description seems, promise). Thanks for listening! We'll be back next week. Feel free to reach out to us at: timezonetalkspod@gmail.com

    39. Current Obsessions: Food & Music (Part 1)

    Are you the type to casually enjoy things... or become obsessed with them? In the first part of this two-part conversation on current obsessions, we discuss Claudia's cyclical food hyperfixations (and Angelin's lack thereof), Claudia's (also cyclical) music taste, and Angelin's renewed passion for a big boy group that recently went on tour. Thanks for listening! We'll be back with part 2 next week. Feel free to reach out to us at: timezonetalkspod@gmail.com

    38. Would You Pay for Nostalgia?

    From Hannah Montana turning 20 to brands bringing back everything we grew up with, nostalgia is everywhere. But how much are we actually willing to pay for the thing? We get into whether nostalgia gets stronger as you get older, if it’s about the object or the moment in life, and whether we’re more likely to fall for nostalgic products or experiences. Plus, do these throwbacks ever live up to the hype, or are they better left as memories? As always, you can reach out to us at: timezonetalkspod@gmail.com

    37. Spring Wardrobe Refresh: Elevating Casual (Part 2)

    We’re back with part 2 of our spring wardrobe refresh, and this time, it’s less “cleaning out” and more “who am I trying to be??” Claudia is deep in her minimal chic but still comfy but also cute for everything era... which sounds simple until you realize her closet currently says otherwise. We get into the reality of online shopping (why is the hit rate so bad??), being ruthless with returns, and the ongoing struggle of wanting elevated outfits when your default is aggressively casual. + a tangent on shopping in China and navigating WeChat Pay as a foreigner. Thanks for listening! Feel free to reach out to us at: timezonetalkspod@gmail.com
