Bing Chen builds worlds at the intersection of entertainment, tech, and community activism, but his real goal is to encourage people to live their purpose and be warriors for each other.
In this conversation, Bing shares his thoughts on how art can be a catalyst for change, living his childhood ambition of being the next Oprah or Walt Disney, and the massively unglamorous side of pursuing one’s passion.
We both love a good Pokémon and Power Rangers reference – try to catch them all!
Notes:
1. Bing very correctly rhymed J.K. Rowling’s last name with “bowling” and not “howling,” as I did. Peace.
2. My audio set-up (major lesson learned for Ep. 2!) required leaving some of our less audible banter on the cutting room floor, but his choice bits of advice are all intact and make an impact.

Other interviews where he discusses the development of franchises and his work at Gold House, the AUM Group, YouTube, Google, and Disney (including Frozen, for the fans) below.
I particularly like his personal musings on being a third culture kid and his explorations into how socio-cultural identity works intersectionally across communities, as the team at Gold House learned from pioneers in the African-American, LGBT, Latinx communities, women’s movement, and Jewish diaspora in shaping their own approach to effecting change.
