Moving Oolong

This week we’re keeping up with the...kitchen and getting an inside look at the culinary world thanks to our special guest, Kathy Chen 👩🏻‍🍳

Kathy shares her experience attending a top culinary school in NYC and discusses what it’s like to be an East Asian American woman entering a still male-dominated field in the US.

🍣 If you’re in the Baltimore area, check out Kathy’s own family's restaurant, Yamato Sushi!

A season staple, it’s about time for another Asian media review! We review the latest 3 Asian American movies 💌🌱🐉 and then get into other media, including k-dramas ofc.

Keep listening for a deeper discussion of tropes and how shows, like ATLA, reflect realistic and more mature themes.

Let us know what you’re watching/listening/reading in the comments!

Another Monday and another episode on relationships, platonic & romantic!

We use We’re Not Really Strangers’ signs you’re in a healthy relationship to discuss green flags, instead of red ✅

Stay tuned for the end of the episode where we also talk about how to end a relationship when the time comes...

Cheers, mate! We’re back this week with a two-for-one guest episode on studying abroad ✈️

Obviously, traveling anywhere is limited now, but we can still mentally visit Madrid & Edinburgh with our guests, Dave & Tim!

Join us for a fun, random episode on traveling abroad as Asian Americans and tips for the application process at the end!

Finding a mentor is often recommended to students and recent grads, but we think it’s seems easier said than done.

🧐 And what even is a mentor?? Join us this week as we share our personal experiences of finding, keeping, and yes, even training our mentors…

We’re sipping and spilling the tea this week…imagine a truth or drink game, but with bubble tea!

Sally puts her new AZN Flush x KFT card game to use (“the world's first boba-themed game”) and we answer different questions like “story time”, “if this, then”, and “most likely to.” Tune in for a fun, lighthearted boba chat session to get a glimpse of the kind of conversations we have off-pod.

Liked this kind of episode? Let us know and we might record more friend games in the futures!

Do you call it boba or bubble tea? Freeway or highway? We brought on our old high school friend, Jethro, to talk about the difference between U.S. west coast and east coast culture.

Jethro went to school with us in Maryland, but he’s lived all over the world and spent the last few years in Northern California and Las Vegas. Join us to hear why he thinks #WestCoastBestCoast.

We just missed Valentine’s day, but we hope the results from our rigorous review of 6 unique dating apps will still be helpful in your quest for love.

That’s right, in this week’s episode we compare 4 obscure/niche dating apps with 2 classic ones that you may already have on your phone. Although we have a 20 pt. rubric, we did this app review just for fun and laughs, and it shouldn’t be taken too seriously. If you’ve had success with EME Hive or Christian Mingle, let us know!

We told you we had a lot in store for this season… we’re excited to share our first ever podcaster guests, Crystal and Jeeso from Eat Your Crust!

Crystal and Jeesoo are both college grads from c/o 2018 so they’ve had a few more years to figure out what it means to be post-grads working full time. On this episode, we chat about work-life balance, how to quit your first job, and how growing up in Silicon Valley impacted their career choices.

After listening to our episode, head over to their pod to hear us debate Gen Z vs Millennial and the future of TikTok
