I chat with Chris Chyung, who recently became the first Asian-American state legislator in Indiana's history at 25 years old. With no previous political experience, he was able to beat longtime Republican State Rep Hal Slager by 82 votes. This was such an inspiring conversation where we talk about his winning strategy, how his ethnicity played a role during his campaign, and what he considers his accomplishments and setbacks from the 2019 house session.

16. Season 3 - Gettin' More Political

This is a show about Asians who didn’t become doctors, lawyers, or engineers. I’m Angie Hom, I'm Chinese-American, and I have meaningful conversations with Asian Americans who break the stereotypes.

I get to talk to interesting folks who balance two different cultures while staying authentic to themselves. We talk about the small stuff like pursuing unconventional careers, culture clashes, disappointing parents, and our SAT scores. Just kidding on the scores.
