Straight into online dating etiquette and the exchange of knowledge on the art of casual dating.
Then to how it feels to experience fear and anxiety everyday of one’s life.
Sidetracked by the our very own dating mishaps and hopes for the future. 🫂

Within the past year, a lot of you have asked me about Jisa or mentioned that you missed the podcast. We are finally back, but with a few exciting changes! I am however, so happy that Vivian will be joining me and let me present her thoughts and feelings to the world through this new segment. (Jisa is just marinating a comeback that's all) In this episode, we touch upon self-hatred, and self-help materials such as apps and videos. A touch of anxiety here, a dash of depression there, and an over-all shooting-the-shit type of conversation. Thank you for your continued support!
Love always,

The long awaited episode on family and culture is finally out. Please excuse us for such a long break between episodes, personal affairs in our lives prevented us from being able to take the time to edit the episode. We start by discussing our backgrounds and growing up in China versus growing up in the USA, as well as family dynamics. I talk about my personal experience with being of mixed race/ethnicity, and Jia and I muse on the feeling of existing in between worlds. There is also a sprinkling of discussion about white privilege, and finally, we talk about what defines a family. 💝

Let's just say I am the queen of preventing us from ever finishing a whole thought... which resulted in a lot of things left unsaid. For example, the affect media has on people's perception of masculinity. My mind is this constant moshpit of thoughts and ideas, either that or I'm just in a continuous state of fight or flight response. Anywho! Please take a listen to our thoughts on toxic masculinity, self-worth, gas-lighting, incels, and many more terms I recently came in contact with. -Jia

Get excited!!! Jia is a world star wannabe who hopes to be the next Beyoncé. Lisa is an old piece of gum on the bottom of Jia's shoe. Together they made a podcast.
