Hello Juicy Lemoners! Welcome to this week's episode!

SEGMENT 1: BLACKPINK Nursing a Controversy

- BLACKPINK's latest music video LoveSick has attracted some controversy this week after the Korean Nurse Union demanded a scene of Jennie wearing a nurse uniform was deemed 'sexualising' the profession.

- Many Non-Korean fans don't understand how the outfit or scene was offensive but is it because we don't understand the culture and history of nurses in Korea?

SEGMENT 2: Coming Out Day

- We look back at how far we've come with the 'Coming Out' process and how more work is needed to normalise sexuality.

SEGMENT 3: Recommendations

- Phil recommends Emily in Paris and Tom recommends you check out Anjelah Johnson's stand up Not Fancy on Netflix.

Hello Juicy Lemoners!

We're taking a bit of a break this week so we're revisiting some of our favourite moments in the past year! Can you believe it's been almost a year since LEMON was launched?!

Fighting anti-Asian racism in Australia

Rising anti-China sentiments in the early days of COVID-19 led to an increased number of racist attacks towards Asian-Australians. In this segment, we discuss and share our experiences of the casual racism we faced but also talk about how many Asian-Australians actually don't know where the line is drawn for 'casual racism' because it's something that we've all grown up with and dealt with on a daily basis. 

Why do Asian people Anglicised our names?

In this segment, we explore why our parents decided to give us English names and why so many international students coming to Australia are encouraged by their teachers to adopt and Anglicise their names. 

The Asian Black Problem

Black Lives Matters has been one of the biggest movements of our generation but for the Asian community, it has always been viewed as a white vs black person problem. In this episode, we discuss why Asian pop culture and societies in Asia need to do better to further the discussion around colourism and BLM.

Hello Juicy Lemoners!

We're taking a bit of a break this week so we're revisiting some of our favourite moments in the past year! Can you believe it's been almost a year since LEMON was launched?!

WeChat Aunty

WeChat is the most popular messenger app amongst Asian parents and misinformation on the social network spread like wild-fire. In this segment, we breakdown the common coronavirus cures and prevention, as told by a WeChat aunty. 

Dami Im

X Factor winner and Eurovision Qween Dami Im has an honest chat to us about the backlash she got after winning the X Factor - many people believe she shouldn't have won because she was Asian. 

Jenny Zhou

TV actress Jenny Zhou recounts the time when she auditioned for a role written for an Asian character but the director and writers had a last minute change in direction - any guesses what? 

The Ni Hao Me Debate

MasterChef contestant Sarah Tiong sparked a debate about why it was offensive to greet an Asian person with 'Ni Hao Ma' after she hung up on a radio host. In this episode, we discuss why greeting an Asian person with 'Ni Hao Ma' is a form of microaggression and how the phrase has a long history of being traumatic to Asian-Australians because of the way it is used to mock us.

What’s in a name? Particularly in Australia, having a distinctly foreign name has its positives and negatives, and I’ve always had this inkling that there’s a different way we think about names in Australia compared to Chinese culture in particular, but I could never quite put my finger on it. This episode we explore how this difference in names affects us.

Shoes Off is a written, produced and edited podcast that educates, connects and inspires Asian Australians, because we don’t talk about culture enough. Each episode is topic-driven, and we'll bring you stories and thoughts from interesting Aussie Asians, academics and everyday folk so we can question, explore and celebrate what it means to be an Asian in Australia.
