EP 214: They Call Us (Bruce) K-Pop Dreaming
This month to celebrate AAPI heritage we’re sharing an episode from They Call Us Bruce, a sister podcast from the Potluck Podcast Collective (who MM’s been a part of for years) featuring unique Asian American voices and stories.
They Call Us Bruce is hosted by two Asian American community mainstays Phil Yu, aka the Angry Asian man, and Jeff Yang, a prolific writer and celebrity dad who, along with a guest or two, come together weekly to discuss the good, the bad, and the WTF on the latest topics in Asian American culture and media. We've actually had the privilege of having Phil on this podcast, and Jeff's been a friend and supporter of Modern Minorities. Jeff & Phil also recently published “RISE: A Pop History of Asian America from the Nineties to Now” - available wherever your favorite books are sold. On THIS episode of They Call Us Bruce, Phil and Jeff are joined by Vivian Yoon, host and writer of the LA-ist podcast, K-POP DREAMING - to chat all about the rights of K-pop and pop culture, and to be nostalgic about the classics.
