Join host Amy in Part 1 of a series on interethnic dating as she chats to our very own Mai-Anh and her partner of 12+ years, Jamie (or Jai-Anh, if you will). Amy grilled them on how they met, how they navigate the world as a multiethnic couple and what they’ve learned along the way. Expect chat on Scottishness, microaggressions, feminist pockets and sweaty pits!

CONTENT NOTE: expect strong language (naughty Jamie).

Amy talks to Huong (@mrshuongblack), Liz (@themodernchef) and Georgie  (@chinesechippygirl) about parenting as ESEA mums including how we try  to instil a sense of ESEA heritage in our kids, introducing durian, the  dreaded poonamis, and everything in between!

Visit Liz at Mei Mei in Borough Market London or grab a taste of Singapore at home with her new shiny cookbook, Makan. 

Check  out Georgie’s podcast, Chinese Chippy Girl where she connects with all  kinds of people in the ESEA world including her interview with Katie  Leung!

Mai-Anh Peterson is joined by Hollie and Sui on a bloomin' brilliant and insightful discussion around decolonising green spaces. They dig into how poc and marginalised groups feel in green spaces, they then branch out into discussing the history, why gardening is gate kept, how gardening isn't about perfectionism. and then Hollie even graces our ears with a cluckin' chicken impression! Join in on the convo over at besean!
