  • Ep. 57 Gold, Silver and Bronze - 2024 and on to 2028 | Conversasians Pod

    With the Olympics coming to an end we're left with some mixed feelings. Funny how the world bands together to cheer on all their athletes and how everyone is quick to judge when it comes to a bit of controversy. Breaking and Boxing had their fair share of heat but one of the more interesting moments turn out to be the French pole vaulter. The gentleman who won the hearts of women and is the envy of most men, got an offer of $250K for an hour cam performance. Quite the consolation prize after placing 12th. Thinking of all the people that will be flying in we are all dreading and looking forward to 2028, as LA is to host the next summer Olympics. Congrats to all the winners and good luck to all the athletes who are training to be competitors in four years time. Thanks for tuning in and we’ll see you next week.Support via Cash Apphttps://cash.app/$ConversasiansConversasians Pod Links IG: https://www.instagram.com/conversasians_podYouTube: https://youtube.com/@conversasians_pod Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@conversasians_pod

  • Ep. 56 For All Masuka Kind w/ C.S. Lee | Conversasians Pod

    We cut to the country side of Jeon Ju, S. Korea. We get a close up of a boy, not knowing he will grow up to play the lead forensic science investigator that’ll be working along side by side with the serial killer Dexter, we have C.S. Lee, aka Vince Masuka.

    C.S. shared a bit of his upbringing where he was the only asian kid around. Having lived in Alaska and Washington State we can see why there was a lack in numbers. His first asian friend took 30 years only after moving to N.Y. From his first role as a klansman with lines, to his first professional gig with a small role serving Harrison Ford, there are no lack of stories from C.S. He is currently on the show, “For All Mankind,” as a North Korean Astronaut.b You check out the last 4 seasons and look forward to the 5th season scheduled to air sometime this year.

    Thank you joining us!

  • Ep. 54 Hurricane Han, The Most Interesting Woman In The World w/ Alice Han | Conversasians Pod

    All of us at Conversasians knew Alice separately, knowing her from different part of her life. So we brought her in to put the puzzle pieces together. Alice Han, a true renaissance woman who has been mostly behind the scenes will be joining us in front of the camera. With the Olympic Games in 2024 introducing break dancing, Alice shared stories of working with R16’s tournament that highlighted urban culture including B-Boying. Which lead to a life which truely can be described as interesting. From K-pop artist to graffiti artists, Snoop and Rock the Bells, the most surprising was that Alice started out in I.T. during Y2K.

    Most recently threw the event for a new soju from a famous Korean-American artist and a Netflix show’s final season premiere.

  • Ep. 53 Tough As Nails, Firefighter Young Jin An | Conversasians Pod

    Fire fighter and reality show stud, Young Jin An drops by Conversasians during his visit in L.A. to attend his cousins wedding. Sung’s sisters wedding brought in a full Yu family mob. As Sung and Young are cousins for a parent whos one of 12 siblings, they even have neices that are older than them.

    We think hero when we hear someone’s a fire fighter but Young takes us backstage in to the belly of the beast. Yes, he fights fires but goes on more medical calls that require more than medical knowledge. We learned fire fighers deal with a lot of sh*t. But the hard work brought opportuniies, being a contestant for a reality show, Tough As Nails which lead to a deal with Carhartt.

We also got news of an amazing hit "Woke Up" by XG, lyrics written by none other than Rick a.k.a. Lyricks from YOX. We couldn't stop listening to the song, just wow. Take a listen for yourself and see what we mean, it's on another level. These 7 girls were able to fully absorb, digest, and bring to life Rick's lyrics.

  • Ep. 51 Appreciation Goes A Long Way | Conversasians Pod

    With Sung attending to his sister’s festivities, this week we have Jess and Ry. Jess and Ry both share some W’s after they found themselves identifying some problematic moments. Family traditions and dynamics are different for everyone. Ryan finds himself graviting towards his wife’s family gatherings over his own, which in-turn had rippled in to having his family start some new traditions. Jess having survived consecutive pivitoal landmarks ended up neglecting the needs of her main support system. Even after having awknowledged a concern, without some outside perspective one could find themselves ill-equiped. Difficult times will never stop suffocating our lives. Jess and Ry were able to seek the air they need starting with appreciation.

    With that, we all at Conversasians wanted to appreciate you, the viewer and listeners of our Podcast. Hope you all have a wonderful week and we’ll be back same day and time, Wednesday's @ 11am.

  • Ep. 50 Bezos, Author, Soldier, Guy w/ Former Navy SEAL Joe Choi | Conversasians Pod

    Currently working for Amazon selling Ads, a hidden story lies within one man, Joe Choi. At a young impressionable age, his Godfather left him with a message that shaped his future. With all of his accomplishments of attending the Naval Academy and becoming a Navy SEAL he drops us with a children's book that will definitely be a classic. Empa and Thee (available on Amazon.com, link below) is about, as one could have guessed, empathy. Providing perspective of the ‘other-side of the story’ it teaches the reader that we may not know the whole story. A very fitting tale for our former Navy SEAL Author to share.

    It happened, it's real, Jessica has now officially joined us here at Conversasians.

  • Ep. 48 Professional Audition Crasher - J.D. McElroy of Hashtag Lunch Bag | Conversasians Pod

    This week we have J.D. McElroy, renowned dancer known for his exceptional talent and contributions to the world of dance. With unfortunate events and possibly a blessing in disguise, J.D. is adopted at the age of two. While surviving his formative and adolescent years in Colorado, J.D. picks up dancing in high school. Which inevitably set his aspirational sights towards our home, Los Angeles. A bit of naiveté and most parts boldness, J.D. gets his big break in L.A. and shares one of his success stories as an audition crasher. As a co-founder of Hashtag Lunch Bag and being a proud dad we see a different side of J.D.
