Alexandra Evans joins us this week for an in person interview. Alex started her hospitality career over four decades ago in her teenage years working at a French café a few blocks from where she grew up in midtown Toronto. A few years later, Alex lied her way into a waitressing job at Toby's Goodeats - very popular burger chain in Toronto in the 1980's. Alex loved the late nights and fast cash and fast cameraderie that comes with working in the industry. Alex moved into Management at Toby's and in the early 90's joined the team at O'Tooles on Carlton St across from Maple Leaf Gardens and stayed for 3 years. Alex eventually moved on to work at a French bistro - Le Paradis - for over 12 years, then soon after got bitten by the wine bug. Alex started a wine class in 1999 that morphed into a Sommelier diploma by 2004. That diploma opened the door to a management job at Boba restaurant on Avenue Road then Celestin on Mount Pleasant. That in turn opened a bigger door to Scaramouche restaurant where she stayed for 10 years as Maitre d', Sommelier and server. Eventually, Alex retired from serving in 2019. Alex and her partner moved to Stratford Ontario in the summer of 2021 and started teaching wine and service at the Stratford Chefs School where she enjoys passing the torch to the younger generation. In March of 2022 Alex started working for Nicholas Pearce Wines as their sales representative for South West Ontario where she gets to interact and keep her foot in the door of the hospitality industry and be in bed by 10pm….. In Alex's own words "It's been a great gig!"

Reflecting on all their conversations during season one, Oliver shares that he has learned that he is obsessed with money, specifically mixing sex and money. Although Oliver is a dirty free spirit, he stopped himself from starring in his own pornography for fear of professional repercussions. He has since realized that he hates wholesomeness and loves addiction and vices. Meanwhile, Teresa reveals that she has learned she was depressed from her prior toxic relationship with the cheating old man and that her depression stopped her from living a Hot Girl Summer. She talks about the steps she made to change herself, including her extreme weight loss and getting back out on the dating scene. Then Teresa and Oliver reflect on personality types and how some people are unforgettable in our minds while others can be easily forgotten. The episode wraps up with Oliver sharing his summer goals of making a short film about porn that he can submit to mainstream film festivals and making spicy content for his Onlyfans. Teresa reveals her plan is to get a summer romantic partner who adds to her life, not tries to change it.

Oliver usually only hooks up and never dates, but for the first time, he tried a speed dating event, where he was shocked to meet wholesome queer people. Meeting the wholesome people made him feel weird about himself and old, because his dates were all Gen-Z who did not know any of his pop culture references. Teresa reveals that she also wants to change her romantic behavior. Instead of being a dominant independent woman, she fantasizes about being a submissive pillow princess to a manly guy–like a fireman. The talk eventually leads to Oliver sharing that he wants to act in porn himself but that he holds himself back for mainstream career possibilities, and this shocks Teresa who views Oliver as someone who does whatever he wants. The two then talk about escorts and porn stars they know whose lives are enriched by their sex work money, and this leads them to explore the question, “What's the point of saying no to something you actually want to do?”Teresa lo's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/teresalowriter/Oliver Wong's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@oliverwongcomedy?lang=enOliver Wong's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oliverwongcomedy/Get Intimate's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getintimatepodcast/About Sex & Boba PodcastIn Asian culture, it's taboo to talk about sex, but Asian women are the most fetishized and Asian men are the most dismissed in the sexual dating pool.

Recently Oliver got a skin rash and thought he had syphilis. Luckily, it was just a viral infection, but the scare got him and Teresa to talk about trusting doctors, STDs, health insurance, and sex education. Teresa states that it is important who we pick to be with because they can ruin your life, and thrill-seeker Oliver shares that he has lots of sex so he tests for STDs every three months. Hopeless romantic Teresa reveals that she actually enjoys getting lovebombed, and Oliver jokes that she would've fallen for Armie Hammer. The conversation then takes a more serious turn when Oliver and Teresa talk about other dangers of sex besides disease, such as sexual assault, stealthing, and murder.Teresa lo's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/teresalowriter/Oliver Wong's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@oliverwongcomedy?lang=enOliver Wong's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oliverwongcomedy/Get Intimate's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getintimatepodcast/About Sex & Boba PodcastIn Asian culture, it's taboo to talk about sex, but Asian women are the most fetishized and Asian men are the most dismissed in the sexual dating pool.

Teresa recently conquered her fear of solo traveling and took a day trip to Catalina Island where she met new friends since Oliver wouldn't go. Oliver shared that he hates outdoor activities but that he loves to travel alone, especially to places where he can explore and find men on Sniffies. The two talk about how traveling can open your mind, and Teresa recalls a trip to Texas where a man with an Asian fetish wouldn't leave her alone. The two agree that non-Asians having a sexual preference for Asians is actually great for them but there's a line between preference and objectification. All of the chatting about traveling leads to talk about their favorite gym, Equinox, which has clean locations around the country, and this eventually leads to their discussion about how it's okay to chase money. Oliver reveals he now only writes for money, and Teresa shares her life goal is to retire and travel.Teresa lo's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/teresalowriter/Oliver Wong's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@oliverwongcomedy?lang=enOliver Wong's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oliverwongcomedy/Get Intimate's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getintimatepodcast/About Sex & Boba PodcastIn Asian culture, it's taboo to talk about sex, but Asian women are the most fetishized and Asian men are the most dismissed in the sexual dating pool.

Oliver starts the show by sharing his recent positive experience ingesting psilocybin mushrooms and the emotional crash afterward. Teresa talks about her own psychedelic trips and reasons why she doesn't need drugs anymore. They explore the authenticity of their sober and substance-altered selves, with Teresa preferring her sober self and Oliver leaning towards his substance-induced persona. The conversation shifts a little to the subject of Hollywood toxicity, specifically with the past hit show Lost, which makes the two question the essence of successful work created by flawed individuals. Oliver shares a saying that every filmmaker spends their entire life making one film or working on one idea. The two contemplate their own ideas and explore themes like loneliness and human connection. They also talk about their evolving attitudes towards money, negative influences, and the delicate dynamics of money in relationships. The episode ends with Teresa reflecting on her past romantic experiences with cheaters before she piques Oliver's attention with a cuddling service that she discovered.Teresa lo's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/teresalowriter/Oliver Wong's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@oliverwongcomedy?lang=enOliver Wong's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oliverwongcomedy/Get Intimate's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getintimatepodcast/About Sex & Boba PodcastIn Asian culture, it's taboo to talk about sex, but Asian women are the most fetishized and Asian men are the most dismissed in the sexual dating pool.

Teresa and Oliver dive into the buzzworthy topic of ChatGPT, sharing contrasting experiences with it. Teresa has tried using ChatGPT as a therapy session, comparing it with platforms like BetterHelp, and Oliver talks about a friend who turned a script into a book using AI. The two discuss the impact of AI on various aspects of life, like jobs and relationships, but they agree that it cannot replace or replicate true real-life experiences. They also bring up a podcast episode they both heard and lessons they got from it, such as the significance of being out of the home and working on their personal growth. Teresa has been seeking excitement outside of comedy by signing up for Meetups and other live events. Oliver credits Exposure Therapy as one of his reasons to pursue comedy and practice his English skills. Teresa reflects on her motivation to write while Oliver struggles with procrastination but finds an outlook to create through the writing of his autobiography. The two end the episode by stressing the need to declutter one's life and to prioritize fulfilling experiences.Teresa lo's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/teresalowriter/Oliver Wong's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@oliverwongcomedy?lang=enOliver Wong's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oliverwongcomedy/Get Intimate's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getintimatepodcast/About Sex & Boba PodcastIn Asian culture, it's taboo to talk about sex, but Asian women are the most fetishized and Asian men are the most dismissed in the sexual dating pool.

To finish up APAHM, we're highlighting another one of our fellow Asian American podcasts from the Potluck Podcast Collective. This time we're dropping an episode of our fellow #PotluckPod QUARANTINED COMICS, a podcast where hosts Raman and Ryan discuss, debate, and nerd out on some of the comic's greatest, latest, and strangest works, about Gene Luen Yang's seminal graphic novel, AMERICAN BORN CHINESE, now a television series on Disney+. ---So with Asian American Heritage Month, we decided that G should be for Gene Luen Yang ...mostly as an excuse to read AMERICAN BORN CHINESE, Yang's Eisner Award-winning, seminal graphic novel soon to be released as a Disney+ streaming show with a bevvy of Oscar winners. American Born Chinese is Gene Luen Yang's was first released in 2006 - written and illustrated by Yang, and also colored by cartoonist Lark Pien. American Born Chinese consists of three seemingly disparate tales...First, the legendary Chinese Monkey King from the classic 16th century Chinese novel Journey to the West. However, blink and you might miss it, but Yang replaces the Buddha with a Christian influenced deity.The second storyline is the all-too-familiar Asian American coming of age story of a young American Born Chinese man Jin Wang, who befriends a new arrival from Taiwan, Wei Chen. As with any story of teen drama, romance is afoot with Jin's American crush Amelia Harris. And the third story depicts an American TV sitcom with All American boy Danny and his cousin visting from Chin-kee, who if you couldn't tell from the name alone, is meant to be an amalgam of racist stereotype, from the outlandish costume, heavy accent, buck teeth, and yes, predilection for putting pee pee in your coke. Eventually these three tales become come together into a poignant lesson of culture and self acceptance. ---*Support the podcast by purchasing books at our bookshop or by buying Books & Boba merch at our Bonfire store*Follow our hosts:Reera Yoo (@reeraboo)Marvin Yueh (@marvinyueh)Follow us:FacebookTwitterGoodreads GroupThis podcast is part of Potluck: An Asian American Podcast Collective

Teresa gets into an awkward situation at her gym on Mother's Day, and Oliver convinces her to join him at Equinox, which has clean steam rooms. The two delve into their thoughts on gym culture and their shared admiration of money-driven individuals working in unconventional industries. Oliver recounts tales of one past boss that demanded "obedience" and was obsessed with control tactics like calculating her employee's menstruation cycle. Teresa shares her perspective on balancing traditional values with aspirations in nontraditional industries. The two also touch on the sensitive nature of modern society and the intricacies of social media, especially OnlyFans. Shifting gears, Teresa expresses her readiness to embrace Hot Girl Summer and her experience with dropping hints on her crush and making the first move.

Asajj Ventress has sought sanctuary with the Nightsisters of Dathomir. She meets with Mother Talzin, who tells Ventress to abandon Dooku and the Sith, and become a true nightsister. A baptismal ceremony changes Ventress' eye color, and a celebration signals her rebirth as a Nightsister. Meanwhile, Dooku learns that Ventress has returned, so he orders Grievous to attack Dathomir and wipe out the Nightsisters. The Separatist fleet arrives, and the battle rages! Ventress leads a counterattack which has some success, until Grievous sends out defoliator tanks to dig through the ditches and burn through the witches. Mother Talzin goes to Old Daka, and asks her to call the army of the dead; apparently she is the last heir of Isildur, so it works. It's zombies vs. robots! Mother Talzin reveals she has a lock of Dooku's hair; she uses it to create a poppet of him and torment via the power of sympathetic magic. Grievous and Ventress stage a lightsaber duel for the fate of the planet, but when Ventress is about to win, Grievous cheats and has his troops intervene. But before they can kill Ventress, Dooku orders them after Mother Talzin to stop the psychic attack on him. Grievous discovers Talzin and Daka. He kills Old Daka, ending the threat of the zombie army, and forces Talzin to turn to mist and flee. The separatist army quickly deals with the remaining nightsisters without their undead reinforcements. Mother Talzin appears in spectral form to Ventress, telling her she has her own path to follow now, then vanishes.With the Nightsister clan wiped out, Assajj is wandering the outer rim looking for her own purpose. She ends up on a desert planet and heads to the bar because she has 4d in genre savvy.She is noticed by Bossk who is a good bounty hunter, but who's real talents lie in team building. A short interview ensues and we head to the hideout where Dengar is annoying and Bossk tells him to shut up. We meet the rest of the crew in Boba Fett and his baroque assassin droid Hi-C? Oh Yeah!The job's a pretty standard escort mission. Our antagonists are super cool looking underworld dwellers and I had to check to make sure that this episode wasn't titled ‘the Crystal Shard.' The under-ninjas have really taken realultimatepower.net to heart and are flipping out all over the place. The bounty hunters are good, but there are too many ninjas. Space Drizzt enters the fight with two awesome electro katanas and proceeds to beat up Boba, solving one of the great nerd debates of all time.We find out that the cargo was Drizzt's sister; Pulma. After the legally distinct and totally unique space Drow are captured, Pulma says that Assajj will never know what it's like to be ripped from the only life she's ever known. Even Boba Fett is powerless before a nat 20 persuasion role. Ventress decides to take charge of the operation, which Boba does not care for. He fucks around and finds out. Assajj delivers the box and the gross pasha of this planet makes it clear that Pulma is his bride and I do not like this. Ventress collects the bounty, and shock!!! Boba was in the box. Unfortunately for him all humanoids look the same to Belugians and Boba spends a few very unpleasant days before the mix up is discovered.Assajj frees Pulma and Krismo and takes her cut of the bounty. She delivers the remaining shares of the bounty to the rest of the hunters. Assajj has grown and she has her own life to live and is she the best character in Star Wars?https://twitter.com/ClosingCrawlhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/closing-crawl/id1530133296https://www.closingcrawl.com/Merch at: https://bit.ly/spacetimetm
