Can’t Make This Up

As we wrap up our first semester, we reflect on our journey and how this podcast has impacted our lives for the better. BUT FIRST, hear our rants on Shang-Chi and how grad school is going for us! We love y'all and we'll be back in 2022...

Marriage... is that still a thing? To us, yes it is! Marriage means something to everyone, and people have their own rules/standards in a partnership. Pre-nups... Couples Counseling... Do your thing, just be on the same page with your partner... and go to therapy! We tackle Simone Biles prioritizing her mental health, PJ Washington taking his L and Olympian, Sunisa Lee, winning GOLD for all-around gymnastics... the first Hmong American to do so -- period.

For our first monthly episode, we discuss cancel culture and all that comes with it. Where's the accountability? Should there be a different term? Can canceled people be brought back into a positive light? Bloop. Tune in to hear our thoughts! Though we love the Fast & Furious series... it needs to be canceled! Our rants went crazy on Fast 9, men who cheat, and letting Sha'Carri run!!

Ladies, we know you're tired of hearing the phrase “I need to work on myself” after he was wining and dining you. Forget him and tune into this episode where we drop some gems on this topic. Oh, and we also discuss who was wrong in Tyler Perry's ‘Acrimony'... plot twist, Tyler was wrong for making that whole movie.

Y'all think once a cheater, always a cheater? Hear our thoughts on it and how we've played both roles, unfortunately. But we're all about growth and accountability, so join us on this journey! We can't make this sh*t up at all...

Happy Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month! Hear how Bina celebrates her Hmong culture, Bruce Lee's influence on AJ, our love for martial arts films, and everything else. Celebrate AAPIHM to the fullest, and don't forget to continue your support and education on the culture past the month of May.

You asked us to discuss our views on the topic of chivalry and if it's dying out with our generation... Well, tune in to find out what we gotta say. The biggest takeaway here is to not confuse chivalry with basic respect. Don't be the one to refuse to hold the door open for your date just cause they got baggage. We know y'all are out there, take a seat and listen to what we gotta say.

We get deep into our personal experiences with intergenerational trauma and mental health, and how they're passed down inherently through family. It's difficult being the one to break these habits, surpass through the trauma, and speak up. Let us release, let us learn, and let us break and build.

Y'all have heard us talk about how dreadful social media can be. Lately, everyone's phones have been filled with news about your favorite couple, Saweetie & Quavo, and your love guru Derrick Jaxn... Not to mention the controversy over Lil Nas X's ‘Call Me By Your Name' and the “Satan Shoes”. Tune in to hear our take on all of this stuff… that doesn't really matter.

Continuing our dating chronicles, we decided to speak on some of the key things we've learned from our experiences. We discuss putting yourself first, limiting what you give early on, and so much more… So tune in if you wanna better yourself, or to just hear how we've got our hearts broken.

As violent and racist acts have been rising towards the Asian American community, we address our sentiments while shedding light on the conversations that have been sparked from these events. We explore why this is only now getting wide coverage and awareness when Anti-Asian hate DID NOT start with COVID-19, as well as the fact that Asian Americans have been involved with social action for decades. We analyze the minority myth, and dissect the toxic mentality of “you didn't support me, why should I support you?”

As Black History Month comes to a close, we wanted to reflect on the history and discuss our experiences on how and what we learned within the schools and beyond. Happy Black History Month everyone, and remember to celebrate, educate, and support Black businesses/individuals beyond the month of February.

Valentine's Day is coming up and we know some of you are planning on first dates, (hopefully virtual ones) so let's discuss dating expectations, realistic or not. We get into our own expectations for dates, texting, and what we're looking for in partners… And of course, we're single.

After getting endless questions and assumptions about our relationship, we decided to lay it all out on the floor and discuss our views on platonic friendships.

Reflecting on the year 2020, we discuss COVID-19, BLM, and loneliness, to moving forward…

Get a glance into who we are, what we're about, and what we're hoping to accomplish... we're telling you, we can't make this up.
