There is nothing I enjoy more on this podcast than catching up with former students of mine! Justin Chin graduated about 25 years ago, and we hadn't spoken since. It was an extra-pleasant surprise to hear that he is the general manager at San Francisco's hottest restaurant, The Happy Crane. I had to call him up to find out how a kid who skipped college to go to the Marines ended up in fine dining. I had a blast listening to Justin's stories, and I'm so happy he's doing great!You can, of course,

His recommendations always hit, so I wanted to hear more about how he got into content creation.I felt like it was only appropriate to break bread together as we chatted, so we popped on down to New Lun Ting in Chinatown for some roast pork and oxtails.

2025/08/20

If you were around pop culture in the early 2000s, you know Kaila Yu's face. She was a young import car model and pin-up girl. In her just-released book, Fetishized, Kaila pulls back the curtain on what it was like to be an Asian model in the 2000s. Her book is raw and revealing, and definitely worth a read.We recorded this way back in April, as I think I was one of the first podcasters to jump in line to speak with Kaila. It was really fun to chat with her, and I hope you enjoy our conversation

We had some free time this summer, so I suckered some podcast friends to watch some shows with me. Lingjie from @worstasianpod and Isabel from @proudlyasian were game to be part of a watch club. We each recommended a show for the others to watch, and a few months later, we jumped on a Zoom call to give our thoughts! The shows picked were: Love After Divorce Season 4 (2023), Karma (2025), and Signal (2016). We ended up recording for almost 2 hours, so I split it up into 2 episodes. Part one will have
