Did you relate more to Antman than you did to Crazy Rich Asians? Ever feel like Joy Luck Club didn’t represent your Asian-American identity?
 
Today we bring on up-and-coming filmmaker Grace Kim to discuss the creative pressure to “represent” the community, her journey into film, and the intersectional struggles she faced along the way.

As finalist for the Horizon award at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival and a Viacom Viewfinder Program fellow, Grace is quite an exciting character to follow - keep an eye out for her upcoming projects Heart Tick Kaboom and Fissura!

It’s Day 8 since the governor of California announced mandatory shelter-in-place. We no longer have to commute to work, but in place we have back pain, carpal tunnel, and this insatiable urge to snack?!

This week, we discuss our personal best (and most toxic) WFH practices and share what it’s like to be in lockdown with your family or your boo!

It’s been impossible to have a conversation in the past few weeks without the word Coronavirus - and rightfully so, COVID-19 has been causing panic (and mass TP shortages) worldwide with its high contagion factor. 

Today we discuss the social impact of the fast-spreading virus. What’s worse, the fear-mongering on social media, the lack of adequate government response, or the rampant increase in xenophobic incidents?

Toxicity is a monster that manifests in many forms (and, unfortunately, isn't as hot or catchy as Britney Spears circa 2003). Whether it manifests in incompatible friendships, unhealthy cultural values, or pure self-sabotage, toxicity is always both a pain point and an opportunity for growth. In this episode, we get up close and vulnerable to explore the idea of toxicity in our friendships and ourselves. This week's guest, Natalie, actually opens up about her tumultuous 14 year friendship with Jeesoo and we reflect on how friendships can evolve, change, and adapt as we grow.

There’s a balance between not working hard enough and working too hard. There’s also a balance between carefully making an informed decision, and being cripplingly risk-averse. In the start-up space, balance is crucial. This week we invite Michelle, CEO of startup Tinctorium Bio, to chat about how she finds balance in her life and explore how she took the leap of faith into co-founding a start-up.
 
Michelle and her co-founder Tammy seek to provide a sustainable alternative to the harmful (and pollutant!) indigo dye in denim. Tinctorium Bio has been featured in global publications such as Newsweek and BBC and is an industry-leading start-up to keep an eye out for!

Here’s the Gen Z daily routine: 

1. Wake up and immediately tweet about your dream. 
2. Work out by learning (or struggling to learn) TikTok dances. 
3. Fall asleep to the sweet sound of a Twitch streamer’s maniacal clicking. 

NAH, we’re just kidding. But we did bring on our resident Gen Z expert, Yane, to discuss the evolution of mainstream media, especially the rise of streaming culture and the mystifying success of bathwater-selling e-girls!
