Soon was born to be a podcaster, the way he steers the conversation makes it a great and fun listen. Easy going with humor added in, talking a lot about life and Asian upbringing, not just focused on business. Plus the guests are some very prominent Asians! And yes, Soon was a literal rockstar back in the day too with his band FunkU. Highly recommend.
