Hot Water in the Morning

Hot Water in the Morning

What does being Asian have to do with anything? Join your hosts, Jason Yu (he/him) and Joyce Tran (she/her) as they discover how far down their cultural identity really reaches. It’s the Chinese-Canadian existential crisis extravaganza! We feel all the feels and cover topics that have haunted our past, present, and future. From dropping out of Chinese school, navigating BFRBs, to becoming compulsive save-a-holics, come enjoy a cup of hot water in the morning with us. We're not sure what the health benefits are, but we know it does something good. Send us your asian elder wisdom!
