First up, we're catching up with our good friend and OG guest, the legendary Ming Chen. We talk about how life is short, and there's no time to waste when you're at a con, even if it's as unpredictable as this one. Ming shares his philosophy of living life all in, inspired by his younger years when he had no money or car, dreaming of adventures beyond his computer screen.

We also explore San Jose's hidden gems, as Ming spills the beans on his favorite spots that don't get enough love. From dive bars to karaoke nights, we uncover the local haunts that make this city unique. And yes, we even brave the places the locals warn us about—because that's where the real fun begins!

But the real highlight? Ming's karaoke adventures with none other than Patrick Warburton, singing Pearl Jam into the night. Plus, we dive into the world of Malört, the infamous Chicago liquor that turns a night out into a shared challenge of taste buds.

Of course, it wouldn't be a true Uncle Dad adventure without a few hiccups. From press badge mishaps to the mysterious disappearance of con organizers, we faced it all. But thanks to Ming's connections and our determination, we turned chaos into an unforgettable experience.

So grab a drink, settle in, and join us for a candid chat about the highs, lows, and everything in between at Fandong Kong. Whether you're a con veteran or a curious newbie, you're in for a treat. Let's dive into the madness together!
