Fall Back In Love With Yourself

Join the hosts of Add to Cart, comedian-writer-director Kulap Vilaysack and veteran journalist SuChin Pak, in a subversive take on consumerism. Each week, they have honest, revealing (sometimes TMI) conversations about all the big and little things they’re adding to, or removing from, their carts. They decide what's worth the monetary/emotional investment, and what's not. From beauty products and health trends, to celebrities and philosophies they’re passionate about, our hosts dig into anything we buy into and what it says about who we are.

It’s a podcast family get-together this week, as the Aunties are joined by Samantha Bee, host of Choice Words on the Lemonada Media network. The comedic powerhouse tells Ku and Su about her bread-making era that wasn’t, swimsuits that are a community hazard, and eye health. She also talks about her The RealReal loves and losses, because nothing hits harder than a purchase that could’ve been. Plus, SuChin glanced at the eclipse and why you shouldn’t jump on a trampoline after birthing kids.

Zouk’s Cubes CUBED: International Travel

Spring has sprung, and the Aunties want to feel the wind on their skin (moisturized and with SPF, of course). The Pak-Benders embarked on Van Life, which has been long in the making. The journey had its ups and downs, and SuChin is reflecting on lessons learned. Like, what does dinnertime look like for four people in a treehouse? Meanwhile, Kulap has been attending shows on shows, and talks about what that means for her after the pandemic and writer’s strike.

The Aunties Are Getting Out

You’re in a cult! You’re in a cult! We’re allll in a cult! Amanda Montell, host of Sounds Like A Cult and all-around smartest person, joins the Aunties this week. She talks about her new book “The Age of Magical Overthinking,” and dives into why we add more things into our life when the solution is to pare down (the call is coming inside the house!) But that won’t stop Amanda – or the Aunties – from collecting things that just scratch that itch. Like lemon bells, LED candlesticks and bike figurines that remind her of Amsterdam. To quote Taylor Swift: “I got a blank space, baby…” and I’ll fill it with knick knacks.

The Cult of Knick Knacks (with Amanda Montell)

Author and playwright Susan Lieu joins the pod this week to create a trifecta of Asian Auntie shenanigans. She talks about writing her first memoir, “The Manicurist’s Daughter,” which chronicles her search for answers after losing her mother to a botched tummy tuck. It’s an emotionally raw conversation that will leave you hopeful that generational healing is just as real as the trauma. Then, the Aunties dive into her cart, which is truly an ode to Costco and its generous return policy. Susan also shares her solution to inflating matcha latte prices. 
Lemonada has teamed up with Apple Books to bring you the Lemonada Book Club. “The Manicurist’s Daughter” by Susan Lieu is our audiobook of the month! Listen here.
