Summary

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings star Simu Liu talks with Anna about emigrating from China at the age of five, the meaning behind “eating bitter”, wistful first loves, being agreeable when you shouldn’t, relating to 500 Days of Summer, how getting fired from his accounting job turned out to be a good thing, the amazing story of how a tweet led to a starring role in a Marvel movie, an unexpected afternoon playing volleyball, and more. Later in the episode, Anna and April talk with a listener who wants a mature, loving relationship but seems to attract partners only interested in sex.
