Summary

We had so much fun talking to Karen Chee (New Yorker, New York Times) this week about supportive Asian parents (they’re out there) and owning Asian stereotypes. She also went to Harvard so I know the Asian listeners out there are hard as hell right now. Check it out on an all new #AsianNotAsianPod. Listen, share, and leave a review!

Follow her work at @KarenCheee and www.karenchee.com!

Quick S/O to our partners @listeningpartypresents @canalstreetmarket for letting us use their studio!

We finally launched a PATREON page! Please support us in exchange for some fun rewards from Fumi & Mic.
