Ep 5 is a very special first podcast collab with none other than the woman who reinvigorated and inspired this and many other pods to get over the line. The phenomenal Viv Yau of the 'But Where Are You From podcast'. The person who started the petition for better representation of Asians in the media. The woman who is 1/6 of Besea.n and got Asians represented in Parliament for the first time! But those are just the start of her list of achievements.Exclusively fresh off her announcement (literally hours) to take a well deserved break from podcasting, I talk to Viv about her podcast journey to this point, what inspired her, what led to the decision and how she feels about it. We delve into the experiences which altogether led to kicking it all off for her. Growing up in a town without a cultural community, identity crisis from meeting other east and south east asians for the first time, cultural code switching and much much more. Since the launch of her podcast there have been a plethora of changes and developments and we talk all about it! We play a game of her own creation as an ode to her pod and what plans she has going forwards during the break. Be sure to check out Viv at @itsvivyau - https://www.instagram.com/itsvivyau/Her podcast But Where Are You From at: https://open.spotify.com/show/71r4oAbdEH1B7g51ckOwnt?si=250pVhsKSvSNkz_-hGuN2wBeseanInstagram - @besea.nhttps://www.instagram.com/besea.n/Twitter - @besea_nhttps://twitter.com/besea_nAsian Recommendation:IllustratorsAlittlebitsketchyhttps://www.instagram.com/alittlebitsktchy/Karlie Wuhttps://www.instagram.com/wukarlie/Diamond Canopyhttps://www.instagram.com/diamondcanopy/Chop Stick n Pokehttps://www.instagram.com/chop_stick_n_poke/PodcastsChinese Chippy Girlhttps://www.instagram.com/chinesechippygirl/Respect the Michttps://www.instagram.com/respectthemicpod/Rice to Meet Youhttps://www.instagram.com/ricetomeetyoupod/Yellowbeepodhttps://www.instagram.com/yellowbeepod/--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/crazybritasian/message
