April 27, 2022 Asians Don’t Look The Same
“Oh hey! Aren’t you…?”
No. Don’t even finish that sentence. I’m not so and so sibling.
To all the Asians out there, have you ever been mistaken for other Asians at your school? Perhaps, do you almost never get called the right name? We’ve been there. In fact, that’s what today’s episode is all about! Come along as we groan over the “All Asians look the same” stereotype and talk about how even the two of us got mistaken for each other.
P.S. Happy Fobiversary! We love you 💛

March 30, 2022 What’s Asian Fishing?
What do you think of when you hear the term “Asian Fishing”? An Asian person fishing? A culturally significant hunting technique? As much as we would love to say yes, Asian Fishing is something much worse.
With the ever-rising popularity of anime, K-pop, and dramas, some people have taken their love a few steps too far………as far as even pretending to be Asian on social media 😳
Tune in as we break down the Asian Fishing phenomenon and talk about the harm it causes to the East Asian community.
