  • Thnx KUOW! This is a Keeper!

  • Beautiful storytelling about the Asian American experience

    I love that this podcast explores the complexity and the diversity of the Asian American experience. I find comfort and solidarity in listening to stories that are both like — and unlike — my own. Asian stories are American stories, and I’m so glad this podcast exists to share them with the world!

  • Poetic and meaningful!!

    I can’t believe I waited this long to listen to this podcast! It’s a precious gem amongst the many many podcasts out there.

While the stories are often told by those of Asian descent, what I find compelling is the universality of the feelings and lessons shared in the stories -... more

  • Beautiful, Necessary Storytelling

    After discovering this podcast earlier this year, I eagerly made my way through each episode. As a longtime Seattleite and Asian-American, this is the podcast I’ve been waiting for. My only note is that the seasons are too short, while the stories to tell are vast & inexhaustible. I’m excited for Season 3, and I hope KUOW will expand this award-winning podcast to offer many, many more episodes throughout the entire calendar year!

  • Wonderful, Beautiful Work!

    I was deeply moved by the episode on Voice. I found the guest, Alice Wong, to be inspiring, and I loved how thoughtful and nuanced the episode was - how it explored, not only the physical voice, but the evolution of, and the notion of voice itself. I especially appreciated Shin Yu’s insights at the end where she shared the journey of her voice from the written word to embodied expression. After the episode, I kept thinking about it — it led me to think about the mind-body connection, and how it ... more
