Donut shops are an integral part of Southern California's landscape, with an independent mom-and-pop on almost every corner. But, how did they become so prevalent? And how did they all come to use the same pink box to signify that fluffy goodness inside? SoCal's donut scene owes much of its legacy to Cambodian refugees, who came to California during the Khmer Rouge's civil war. In fact, your local corner shop is most likely thanks to one man in particular: Ted Ngoy, the Donut King. Ngoy fled Cambodia in 1975, and eventually opened his first donut shop in La Habra called Christy's. Although small donut shops existed before Christy's, Ngoy's donut recipe and signature pink box soon became the standard, largely because Ngoy would help other Cambodian immigrants open shops of their own. Today on AirTalk, we learn about Ted Ngoy's legacy and the Cambodian donut shop that has made SoCal the donut capital of the world. Joining us is Alice Gu, director of the documentary The Donut King and Phung Huynh, artist and educator. You can see Phung's Pink Donut Boxes series at Cal State Long Beach as part of their Against Monoculture exhibit. You can also watch The Donut King documentary on Hulu.  

We speak with filmmaker Alice Gu about her 2020 documentary 'The Donut King.' The film tells the story of Ted Ngoy, a Cambodian refugee who escaped the Khmer Rouge and built a donut empire in California in the 1970s. Ted's success helped hundreds of fellow refugees start their own shops, transforming the West Coast's donut scene. But as Ted enjoyed the American Dream, personal struggles with gambling and infidelity led to a dramatic fall from grace. In our conversation, Alice reflects on the rise and fall of Ted's fortune and the immigrant experience at the heart of his story.Actual Facts is hosted by Eric SteuerTheme music by Yalls: https://www.dancasey.me/'The Donut King': https://www.donutkingmovie.com/MovieMaker Magazine: https://www.moviemaker.com/ Hosted on Acast.

When "The Donut King" documentary came out in 2020 it really blew my mind and made me want to know more about the Cambodian families that ran these friendly and delicious donut shops. Featured in the film is Mayly Tao, who was actually the first person filmmaker Alice Gu spoke with when researching Ted Ngoy, the Donut King.  I came across Mayly on Instagram and couldn't be happier that she made some time to talk with me. Mayly is part of California donut royalty and has so many other passions, I think you'll really enjoy hearing more about her story!

Welcome to Season 2, Episode 27! National Doughnut Day is coming soon! It's safe to say that without the Cambodian American community, the world of independent doughnut shops in the U.S. would be very different. How did Cambodian refugees and immigrants end up with over 80% of the doughnut shops in California and Houston? In this episode, we talk about Ted Ngoy, some of the secret to success for Cambodian doughnut shops, and the lasting impact of the community. We also talk about the history of National Doughnut Day and do another installment of Obscure Asian Comic Book Characters. This time we feature someone more contemporary… Pearl Pangan AKA Wave, a Filipina superhero by Marvel Comics. To learn more about Ted Ngoy and Cambodian doughnut shops, we recommend the movie The Donut King by Alice Gu and the book of food essays Eating Asian America with an essay on Cambodian doughnuts and American culture by Erin Curtis.

In this episode, documentary filmmakers Alice Gu (The Donut King, Really Good Rejects) and Ciara Lacy (Out of State) discuss the power of framing, the true value of collaboration, and their mutual desire to transition into narrative spaces.

Our first episode of the SXSW Film Festival features all return guests to the show! We love seeing familiar faces, and it's especially impressive that these filmmakers are all regulars on the film festival circuit.  Pussy Mask is a music video for Peaches' new song (of the same name), directed by Leah Shore, who we had on at last year's SXSW for her short film Puss. We're sensing a trend in the titles of her projects...anyway, this is an animated music video that features dancing vaginas (of varying colors) wearing masks. It's glorious. And Leah shares how she first met Peaches, some of her favorite Peaches lyrics, and her plans for (hopefully) catching some strange while in Austin, Texas during the festival.Really Good Rejects is a documentary centered around Reuben Cox, who makes some of the most unique and sought after guitars for some of the biggest names in the music industry, including Jackson Browne, Carrie Brownstein (of Sleater-Kinney) and Aaron Dessner (of The National). Director Alice Gu (who we had on last year for her documentary The Donut King), shares how she got connected with Reuben Cox, which musicians she was most excited about interviewing, and the unexpected vulnerability they shared with her.Horse Brothers is a short film co-directed and co-written by Fabian Velasco and Milos Mitrovic (who also stars in the film), both of which we had on at Slamdance 2020 for their feature length film Tapeworm. Horse Brothers is a thriller that takes you on a crazy ride with two brothers, a talking horse, a bathtub, and a boat. We get into their process of coming up with unique storylines, filming during a pandemic, and the trials and tribulations of working with horses.The SXSW Film Festival runs from March 11th-20th, check out their website for online and in person ticket options before it's too late!...and Thanks to our friends over at Lost Republic for sponsoring  our SXSW 2022 coverage this year, and for being the official whiskey of The Bitch Talk Podcast!

Welcome to the 2022 SXSW Film Festival (taking place March 11th-20th)! We're kicking off our coverage with a Basic Bitch of what's to come. From comedies and dark short films to documentaries about women's reproductive rights and the Christian mothers of LGBTQ+ children, we have a wide array of conversations coming up in the next two weeks that will (hopefully) make you laugh, help you empathize, and encourage you to take action. We will also have some returning guests to the show (shout out to Alice Gu, Milos Mitrovic, Fabian Velasco and Leah Shore!), and celebrate some of the best film titles we've ever seen at a festival (ie: multiple names containing the words dick, slut, and bitch). And of course it wouldn't be a Basic Bitch without at least one random rant. Does anyone else think Generation Alpha is a horrible name? And don't @ us about the Greek alphabet, the name still sucks.Be sure to tune in to our coverage of SXSW for the next two weeks!

Po latach znikomej obecności twórców i bohaterów azjatyckiego pochodzenia w amerykańskim kinie, od jakiegoś czasu obserwujemy znaczący zwrot akcji. Nagrody dla "Parasite", "Kłamstewka" czy "Minari", Oscar dla Chloé Zhao, zapowiedzi pierwszej marvelowskiej produkcji z azjatyckim superbohaterem - wygląda na to, że pewne bariery zaczęły pękać. Równocześnie Amerykanie pochodzenia azjatyckiego mierzą się w codziennym życiu z narastającą falą rasizmu i otwartej przemocy.  Jak wyglądała historia różnych mniejszości azjatyckich, przybywających od XIX wieku do Stanów Zjednoczonych? W jakie stereotypy przez dekady ubierało ich kino głównego nurtu? Dlaczego aktorzy azjatyckiego pochodzenia nie mogli liczyć na pierwszoplanowe role? I w końcu - dlaczego sukces takich filmów jak "Minari" ma kolosalne znaczenie dla poszerzania świadomości masowego odbiorcy? Odpowiedzi na te pytania szukamy w 29. odcinku Azja Kręci!   Filmy odcinka:  Awkwafina is Nora From Queens, Stany Zjednoczone, seria od 2020 Bajecznie bogaci Azjaci / Crazy Rich Asians, reż. Jon M.

Mission encre noire Tome 24 Chapitre 300. À événement exceptionnel, invité.e.s de choix, nous recevons ce soir Kevin Lambert et Alice Guéricolas-Gagné pour fêter le numéro 300 de Mission encre noire. Hélène Lefranc, revient à l'antenne, pour l'occasion, le temps d'une chronique et d'une entrevue. Querelle de Roberval de Kevin Lambert paru en 2018 aux éditions Héliotropre. Voici l'odyssée éphémère de Querelle, jeune homme de 27 ans, le dernier journalier rentré à l'usine de la Scierie du Lac Inc. de Roberval, qui emploie une vingtaine d'ouvriers spécialisés. Il est beau et scandaleux, il enfile les jeunes minets de bonnes familles comme les mauvais garçons. Ce personnage, emprunté au Querelle de Brest de Jean Genet, est le caillou dans la chaussure d'un système économique et social paternaliste qui s'enraye. Les employés de la Scierie sont en grève et le conflit se dégrade rapidement. Alors que le chaos s'installe, Querelle et une gang de slutboys d'amour jouissent en rafale comme d'autres crient leur rage à coups de batte de baseball. Piquetage, joke grasses et mauvais café le jour, quand tombe la nuit, une autre complainte s'élève au-dessus de l'horizon québécois, tout devient permis. Querelle de Roberval est le journal de bord d'une déflagration sociale et romanesque à la fois tendre et féroce. Roberval est un monstre froid qui dévore ses enfants. L'imagination est au pouvoir et Kevin Lambert nous propose ni plus ni moins que de changer de paradigme: appelons désir ce qui semble immoral, osons nommer la fleur du mal qui pousse entre les poubelles du profit. Kevin Lambert est notre premier invité pour cette 300 ème. Extrait: «Les mères, narquoises, écoutent leurs maris déments, les laissent parler et continuent de se moquer gentiment de leur science tout en les réconfortant par des paroles positives, finement choisies: ce sont les plus nigaudes qui les consolent le mieux. Quand les pères, enfin, s,endorment, les mères se lèvent et poussent leurs petits hors du nid en craignant que l'homme de la maison tente de les baiser pour leur injecter - terme de cette logique occulte - un peu de sa testostérone. Si les fils tombent trop abruptement et se cassent le cou, les mères encaissent le deuil avec un sentiment de devoir accompli. Elles pleurent sur leurs charognes, oui, mais elles demeurent convaincues que la tentative de fuite en valait le coup. les mères sont aussi perverses que leurs époux lubriques. Elles savent toutefois que les fils n'ont rien à faire des romances incestueuses. Pour mieux conjurer la convoitise des pères, les garçons s'accrochent à la bite de Querelle et s'évadent en préparant clandestinement leur vengeance.» Saint-Jambe de Alice Guéricolas-Gagné paru en 2018 aux éditions vlb éditeur. Notre deuxième invitée est la récipiendaire du Prix Robert-Cliche du premier roman 2018 ! Est-ce seulement un roman d'ailleurs? Le quartier de Saint-Jambe, copié-collé d'un quartier de la haute-ville de Québec, est sous la menace de pépines creusant des trous immenses à ses limites et finissent par l'isoler du reste de la ville. C'est un prétexte inespéré pour sa population, qui saisit l'occasion pour proclamer la République de Saint-Jambe. L'événement devient l'épicentre d'une éclosion imaginaire et poétique sans précédent ; sous la lune des acrobates sautent de toit en toit, un terroriste poétique graffite des petits soleils rouges sur des bâtiments austères, des sources d'eau gazéifiées suintent du roc du cap Diamant, les éboueurs font de la musique bruitiste avec leurs déchets, deux femmes s'écrivent sur le dos de leur amant... À Saint-Jambe, l'utopie et la résistance joyeuse sont au pouvoir ! Une chercheuse en ethnologie à l'université libre de Saint-Jambe, associée à la Chaire d'étude internationales sur les mythologies locales contemporaines tente de recoller les morceaux d'une histoire morcelée et intemporelle du siège de la République. Le recueil que vous tenez entre les mains recensent les anecdotes, les événements historiques, les péripéties qui entourent le mode de vie saint-jambien et brosse le portrait des personnages clés du quartier. Dans ce splendide miroir déformant, vous serez, sans doute étonné de reconnaître certains aspects familiers de la ville de Québec. Ludique et insolite saint-Jambe est un appel à devenir des pionniers de l'imaginaire. Utopie ? Vraiment ? Nous montons aux barricades pour cette 300 ème à la rencontre d'Alice Guéricolas-Gagné à Mission encre noire. Extrait: «Au petit matin, tu m'as invitée à rencontrer tes amis, célestes comme toi, amis chats ou amis hommes, je ne veux pas savoir. Vous vous appeliez entre vous les poètes aériens. Vous viviez sur les toits dans de petites cabanes de carton et il y avait des arbres autour de vos logis, des arbres en feuilles malgré le fait que nous n'en étions encore qu'à la fin de l'hiver. Tu m'as invitée à vous accompagner dans une de vos sorties poétiques. En retrait, j'observais les coulisses de vos actions sublimes. Vous vous couchiez sur le ventre tout au bord des toits, et, le corps à moitié dans le vide, vous scrutiez les rues afin de choisir votre prochaine proie. Une fois l'individu méticuleusement sélectionné - vous ne vouliez pas vous retrouver avec n'importe qui - vous l'attrapiez à l'aide d'un lasso dont l'extrémité ressemblait à un harnais, et vous le hissiez jusqu'à vous en tournant une grande manivelle, jusqu'à ce qu'ils se retrouve à vos côtés. Vous kidnappiez les passants pour la beauté du geste, pour les couvrir de couronnes de fleurs avant de leur offrir de visiter avec vous le dédale des faîtes.»
