Christina Vo is a Vietnamese-American writer and the author of two memoirs, one titled “The Veil Between Two Worlds,” and the other a dual memoir written with her father called, “My Vietnam, Your Vietnam.” In our interview, we discuss the differences in experiences and perspectives between her and her father, who fled post-war Vietnam in the 1970s; the death of her mother when she was a teenager; her extended journeys to Vietnam as an adult to better understand her heritage; and her continued exploration of identity, culture, and belonging in her life and writing.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
