After getting laid off 2 months ago and getting madder and sadder about all the layoffs I continue to see, I'm leaning into the misery and working on a story about layoffs for This American Life. Specifically, I'm looking to talk to workers who know layoffs are coming but are waiting

Great panel on BIPOC storytelling in podcasting with Eli Chen 陳歆, Felix Poon, Emily Kwong and Alex Lewis at #AAJA23

I am on sabbatical from Short Wave until 2024 to develop an AAPI history show w/ LAist ✨✨ We are looking for people trying to understand their family dynamics and history’s echo in the diaspora.

Ailsa Chang left a law career in her 30s to intern at KQED. Her parents were baffled. She stuck to her truth, becoming the FIRST Asian American woman to host an NPR program 💐 Last night, we talked about shattering NPR “voice,” creating luck for your colleagues, and equity work

One form of solidarity is celebration 🎉 Ailsa Chang made history. That moment wasn’t widely celebrated. Not even by herself. I’m so glad #AAJA23 could give her that applause last night. Highly encourage reading her interview for The Cut thecut.com/2023/05/how-ai…

I’m a huge believer in lifelong learning, and kudos to you Felix Poon “The more I learn, the more I realize, the less I know” — Michel Legrand

So much ❤️ in Ailsa Chang and Emily Kwong’s convo last night NPR—talking Ailsa leaving law in her 30s to work a KQED internship to now become the 1st Asian Am woman to host an NPR show; and Emily on family histories, saying no to scarcity mentality & supporting one another

My two favorite parts about making this episode was having a conversation with Kathy Kral about fear of death and what happens after we die...and sound designing and scoring an immersive account of her psilocybin trip. What a trip! outsideinradio.org/shows/the-last…

The end of daylight savings is nigh. We turn our clocks back an hour on Nov 5, and I'm making an episode about this controversial ritual. So, I want to hear from you! When has changing the clocks thrown you off, or made life interesting?

I’m not sure I knew my feelings on the afterlife until hearing Felix Poon describe his on Outside In Radio “It’s like returning a drop of water to the ocean. Does the drop still exist anymore? Not really. Does the water itself still exist, it sure does, where is it?”

I love how much environmentalism + mass transit + local and national politics come together in this fascinating story about the Big Dig. A few episodes in and I'm pretty riveted.

People with no direct connection to the Middle East have taken to seeing the Palestinian cause as an anti-colonial struggle connected to their own experience. Columbia historian Rashid Khalidi explains why “decolonization” is resonating worldwide. open.spotify.com/episode/2PdviR…

Two of my favorite podcasts from 2023 won duPont-Columbia Journalism School awards last night -- Emily Hanford 's Sold a Story, and Lauren Chooljian 's 13th Step. Congratulations to you two and your teams! To everyone else, go and listen now if you haven't yet!

97 percent of hunters are white. Most of them are men. But @HuntersOfColor is trying to change that. Felix Poon – lifelong city dweller, first-time hunter – went on a weekend hunting trip with the group in upstate New York. outsideinradio.org/shows/hunters-…

I dunno. Felix Poon (2nd from right) is certainly putting on a good face. 🏹

What's the greenest way to go after you die? I talked about it this week with Darian Woods on The Indicator from NPR's Planet Money. npr.org/2024/03/04/119…

I won a PMJA award for my story about Kathy Kral's journey with psilocybin to treat cancer-related depression. My favorite part of making this was sound-designing her trip experience. That, and being asked by her what I think happens after you die. outsideinradio.org/shows/the-last…
