What did we think of ep 1?? :D :D ALSO, don't forget to subscribe + hit the bell iconπto get a notif! fresh episodes every tuesday at 8 am PT (well, this is the plan). Oh yes, and pls do leave a 5-star rating on Spotify and Apple Pod! (apparently that matters a lot in the pod world?)

I can tell this is gonna be one of my fav podcasts to look forward to, so so relatable with tech, Asian upbringing, and so much more!
-
Ericβs Graham impression was spot on π
-
SHOUT OUT TO SHORT KINGZ π hahaha what a fun pod. Appreciate ya'lls honesty and transparency!
-
this is such a sweet conversation. I love it the easy honesty. thanks for sharing

Chloe, Iβm so glad you shared your perspective because the rest of us can look at you and think, I want what she has. But what we donβt realize is that the higher you soar, the more people want to make you fall. Iβm so sorry that people you even trusted treated you this way. It also just goes to show how mistreated and trampled on Asian women can be. I really like what Eric said, about the audacity of putting ourselves out there as AAPI. I would love to hear more on your courage to do this, as I have actually just left my 15 year copywriting career to do more video, a dream Iβve had for 20 years with the goal of getting more stories like ours out there. Iβm wishing you both the best of luck, I really enjoyed this pod!
