  • Resumen

  • A podcast for Asians and Asian Americans in America. Did you eat yet is synonymous with love and care. Growing up, my parents have always shown love and care to me by asking me that question and no matter if we were mad/sad/irritated at each other, it always comes back with making sure that I was not hungry. Food brings us all together universally and specifically in Asian culture. Quite literally we all come together but at a table and we share something that is crafted with time and effort with love and care. Even in our food we have a sense of together-ness when spices/flavors are incorporated in the food itself. That together-ness is important in a family because much like how amazing food can taste when you add in flavor, having a good bond with family/loved ones can help with having a healthier relationship with your parents and also yourself. There are lots of struggles as Asians living in America: the identity crisis of if you’re really an American in the eyes of an American to if you’re an Asian according to other Asians; balancing between your roots vs western culture; the challenges of embracing your culture(when we were younger), etc. While maneuvering through all of these hurdles, there’s also a challenge with our immigrant parents: the language barriers, the confliction of living life, etc. For some of us it might even feel like we’ve been doing this on our own as our immigrant parent(s) might not have spoken English so you had to do everything by yourself. Or you might be the one that is just coming over to America and are also figuring shit out yourself alone. It seems like sometimes no matter how many friends/people are around you that say they have your back, it can still feel isolating because the struggles that you faced might not resonate with anyone around you. In this podcast for season 1 we have food related title episodes that fit the theme of an issue that we all might’ve faced growing up. Throughout the series we will talk about the trauma, emotions that we felt, and the reflection of where we are with that situation today. We will start off with very heavy and deep topics but gradually get to lighter topics to mimic and reflect what could feel like real time emotions as you relive our childhood. As each episode becomes lighter, we will juxtapose the harsh things we might’ve felt and twist that to be more in understanding of why we think things happen the way they did. Nobody is perfect but when you’re family, we want to make sure that at the end of the day, you’re not going to bed hungry. So… did you eat yet?

    Things work better in pairs. What happens if one of the two fails? Complications in ideas, philosophies, and up bringing is hard and to balance between them is just as difficult. In this episode we talk about how the lack of supportiveness of our parents and the un-aligned ways of raising us as their kids creates this hard to maneuver environment. Nobody said that growing up would be easy but it gets even harder when you don't have supportive people by your side to navigate through it and understanding what you're going through. Despite all these hardships that you'll listen to us ramble about, we wanted to ask you... did you eat yet?
