You may be wondering: Sandie, where have you been? Her apartment flooded, and she got very exhausted by the end of it all (it's actually still an ongoing issue). But this week, she's back! And she's joined by Melissa Slaughter, former actress and current co-creator of Hapa Mag and co-host of the podcast "We're Not All Ninjas." They talk about Celeste Ng's latest article about the harassment of Asian American women. Melissa tells the story of the forgotten Japanese-American Zoot Suiters, the bad boys that both Melissa and Sandie probably would have fallen for. Sandie talks about high school history projects. They both urge everyone to go to therapy and avoid the downfalls of the dreaded intergenerational trauma.
