This is Just Add Soy Sauce, where we talk about our American identities with a dab of Asian flavor! This podcast is our smoke signal to find like-minded people hungry for authentic Asian-American identity.
We're so grateful for all who have contributed to the Asian-American conversation thus far, recounting history, digging into shame, debunking the model minority myth, and normalizing mental health.
So...why are we still feeling a void? Is it just us? Join us as we imperfectly dialogue at what might be missing; taking all that is beautiful about America and adding a bit of soy sauce.
We see the truth in stereotypes, but...does that make us internally racist? (oh.. and Happy AAPI month...)

We're delving into the topic of family - a sensitive one for us, but an absolutely necessary conversation. Please forgive the edits -- our intention is to remain fully authentic while honoring our families. Our dialogue's a bit raw, so it's a little lengthier, but we hope you'll stay to the end.
