This week we bring you an episode from one of our favorite podcasts, The Longest Shortest Time, which features bold, poignant, funny stories about parenthood and reproductive health. Kulap was a guest in 2018! You can find her episode here.

CJ Rivers had always dreamed of being a dad. But as a single person with a uterus who also dates people with uteruses, the path to parenthood was logistically tricky. In this episode, we follow CJ's road to dadhood — including sperm mishaps, blatant discrimination, and an underground group of queer midwives in Athens. Buckle up, because this ride is a wild one!

It’s our first Auntie Book Club of the year with the incredible memoir Boat Baby by Vicky Nguyen. But we start with why Su is feeling wolverine-level insane and a book pick that is making her feel less insane. Plus Ku and her friends go hard (yet again) on game night, complete with costume change. Author Vicky Nguyen talks about going from boat refugee to national TV and why the R is for refuse in her household.

Prompted by a DM from a listener who asked for alternative brands for the home, Auntie Ku & Su come to the rescue with a list of brands that may curb your Amazon and Target addiction.  Su focuses on the home and Ku has major fun recreational shopping with Eme and together, they are trying to find joy through “protest shopping”...which may or may not be a thing, but here on the pod, it’s our preferred form of resistance.

Carters, we are so excited to share with you an episode from Model Minority Moms, co-hosted by a beloved previous guest Susan Lieu (The Manicurist's Daughter), Jeanette Park and Kate Wang, three millenial Asian American moms. In this episode, Kulap talks about making of her documentary Origin Story. Talking about your life story with three other women who just understand you so well because they are fellow parents, fellow women, fellow immigrants... it just lets you get to another level of your story, real quick. Model Minority Moms started as a lengthy text-chain between a couple of working moms who were having babies during the pandemic and it morphed into a podcast that gets into the honest and deep conversations about parenthood, careers, relationships, growing up as an immigrant and everything in between. After you listen to Kulap's interview, check out more episodes of Model Minority Moms on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
