We're not gonna beat around the bush: Pastor Robin and Cass both loved Bao, the preceding short to Pixar's latest theatrical release, Incredibles 2. The first short ever to be directed by an Asian-Canadian woman at Pixar, this small story is chock-full of cultural easter eggs and symbolism that not all white audiences have embraced. We laud the producers at Pixar for having the courage to support this beautiful, poignant, and powerful story of family dynamics and letting go in non-white cultures. Take a listen as we review the spiritual resonances of love and the empty nest in this Hot Take.
