Podcasts about Chinatown

San Diego once had a bustling Chinatown with roots that go all the way back to the 1850's and 1860's. We dive into the history behind San Diego's historic Chinatown, and efforts to revitalize the district it once existed in.

We discuss the interesting story behind how this book came to be published, what Eureka, California, was like in the 1850s and now, and the difference seeing a place makes when writing about it. With the patrons, she shares the fascinating story of how she got into writing. The Angel of Second Street by Barbara Tifft BlakeyHow Can Compassion be Considered Wrong? When life is weighed down by challenges, pillars of enduring hope and love are always waiting to be discovered. Ida Dempsey has grown up in a privileged life of luxury thanks to her aunt and uncle. Although Second Street—where women of ill repute ply their wares—is off limits to respectable citizens, her heart of compassion compels her to frequent the area, hoping to make a difference in their lives. Ida has also befriended Qui Shau, a Chinese woman who keeps house for her family, but friendships between the whites and Chinese are taboo in Eureka. Ida tries to keep secret her forbidden compassion, but someone is watching and will use it against her. When Blaine Prescott meets Ida at a church picnic, his parents warn him away from any relationship with the young lady who has been seen on Second Street in the company of a Chinese woman. But how could such a kindhearted, lovely young woman be anything but good? But when riots break out in Chinatown and Ida disappears, Blaine will do anything to find out where and why she has gone.Get your copy of The Angel of Second Street.I live on five wooded acres outside of Olympia, Washington with my husband, Terry. I have four grown children and eight grandchildren, seven of whom live within sixty miles, giving great joy to my grandma heart.Like many authors, I dreamed of writing stories very young. At eight-years-old, I rewrote Cinderella. In my version, the prince comes down with measles and the ball is postponed. I didn't begin seriously writing historical fiction until after the advent of grandchildren as the Lord had other plans for me. During our homeschooling years, I developed Total Language Plus (TLP), an award-winning,  literature-inspired language arts program written for homeschoolers and private Christian schools. I am beyond blessed to have thirty years of producing study guides that make a difference in children's lives. Nothing is more meaningful to me than influencing children with Kingdom principles!But as we know, God's timing is always best. I delight in doing the research historical fiction requires and bringing stories of hope and love to my readers. Time ceases to exist as the Creator of the universe and Lover of my soul draws near to me as my fingers fly over the keyboard. When I write I feel His presence in extraordinary, precious ways.When I'm not writing, reading, or playing with my grandchildren, you can find me volunteering in the kitchen of Pleasant Valley Christian Camp near Mt. Rainier. I'm also an avid soccer fan, especially for the Seattle Sounders. During stormy weather, my husband and I head for the ocean in our RV to take in the power of crashing waves against rocks. Calm weather also beckons us to the beach to dig razor clams and fish for Dungeness crabs.Visit Barbara Tifft Blakey's website.

We're honoring AAPI month with one of our favorite local AAPI community leaders, Cynthia Huie, owner of On Waverly, an AAPI gift shop and bookstore in the heart of Chinatown. Cynthia shares her childhood fondness for shrimp chips made at home by her grandfather, her lasting love for the crunchy, salty, airy snack. Cynthia talks about representation through retail, her relationship with her grandparents and how that has led to intergenerational friendships as an adult, and how our kids get to take a lot of things for granted–and that's a good thing! Plus creating community and bringing people back to Chinatown, super cool events series and spaces, and that one time Freesia met a Grammy winner when she was hanging out at On Waverly.

In this episode we are joined by Kevin Huang and Kimberley Wong of hua foundation. The conversation centers on the rise of anti-Asian racism during the COVID-19 pandemic, and highlights urgent concerns around community health, public health orders, and hate crimes. Kevin and Kimberley emphasize the importance of recognizing and addressing diverse experiences and perspectives within Asian communities, and shifting community engagement and resource allocation towards racialized communities. Speakers also discuss the limitations of the model minority myth and the need to build intergenerational relations, while acknowledging the complexities of identity and power dynamics in community work.

„Głowa węża” to trzecia książka Patricka Raddena Keefe'a w polskim tłumaczeniu i po raz trzeci ten znakomity amerykański pisarz i dziennikarz śledczy będzie gościem Raportu o książkach.W reportażu „Cokolwiek powiesz, nic nie mów” pisał o konflikcie w Irlandii Północnej i przemianie młodych idealistów w terrorystów, a potem polityków.W „Imperium bólu” pisał o śmiercionośnej epidemii opioidów w Stanach Zjednoczonych i rodzinie Sacklerów, którzy zaczynali jako młodzi lekarze, a skończyli jako mordercy.„Głowa węża” to zaś opowieść o chińskich imigrantach i chińskich gangach w Ameryce, a także pewnej niezwykłej kobiecie zwanej Siostrą Ping – niepozornej starszej pani z Chinatown, która stała na czele ogromnej organizacji przemytniczej wartej 40 mln dolarów.Siostra Ping, jak pozostałe postaci reportaży Keefe'a, to bohaterka niejednoznaczna i pełna paradoksów. Do końca życia wierzyła, że jej misją jest pomaganie rodakom marzącym o lepszym życiu w Ameryce.„Głowa węża” ukazała się w Stanach Zjednoczonych 16 lat temu, ale dziś ten reportaż w wielu aspektach wydaje się bardziej aktualny niż w czasie, gdy był pisany.A sam Radden Keefe mówi, że to dzięki tej książce stał się pisarzem, którym jest dziś.Prowadzenie: Agata KasprolewiczGość: Patrick Radden KeefeKsiążka: Głowa węża, Patrick Radden Keefe / przekład: Jan Dzierzgowski.

CHINA Town Hall (CTH), a program that provides a snapshot of the current U.S.-China relationship and examines how that relationship reverberates at the local level – in our towns, states, and nation – connects people around the country with U.S. policymakers and thought leaders on China. The 2025 CHINA Town Hall program took place on Thursday, April 24, at 6:30 p.m. ET/3:30 p.m. PT, and discussed President Trump's China policy 100 days in. Featured speakers included Ryan Hass, Director of the John L. Thornton China Center at the Brookings Institution; Matthew Turpin, Visiting Fellow at the Hoover Institution; and Lingling Wei, Chief China Correspondent at The Wall Street Journal. Since CTH launched in 2007, the National Committee has proudly partnered with a range of institutions and civic groups, colleges and universities, trade and business associations, world affairs councils, and think tanks to convene town halls and bring this important national conversation to local communities around America (and a few overseas).

EPISODE 86 -  “ANNA MAY WONG: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” - 5/5/2025 Anna May Wong was once the most famous Chinese woman in the world. The trailblazing actress, philanthropist, and fashion icon appeared in over 60 films and was a celebrated star, yet, at the time, she was not allowed to kiss a Caucasian man on screen, which limited the roles she could take, and she was not allowed to buy a house in Beverly Hills. A strange dichotomy, indeed. In recent years, she has enjoyed a much-deserved resurgence. Known as a Trailblazer and a cultural icon, she paved the way for generations of Asian and Asian American actors by proving that talent and perseverance could transcend racist casting conventions. Her life and career continue to influence conversations about diversity, representation, and the politics of race in Hollywood. This week, she is our Star of the Month.

Discussing improvements towards the Chinatown area

Gianluca MargheritiMilano è. Città di quartirri.Un mosaico di città in 19 raccontiA cura di Fiorenza Pistocchi e Gian Luca MargheritiPrefazione di Luca FoschiNeos Edizioniwww.neosedizioni.it Diciannove racconti ispirati ai quartieri di Milano, città multiforme e in continuo movimento: un viaggio letterario fra storia e futuro, ricordi e misteri.Un'antologia che immerge il lettore nella vita di vie e di luoghi, spaziando fra il noir e la memoria, il distopico e la cronaca, il fantastico e il poliziesco. Il tutto condito da humor e creatività.A Milano convivono fianco a fianco realtà sociali, culturali, economiche e antropologiche assai diverse tra di loro, dove è possibile incontrare situazioni e personaggi inconsueti e difficili da dimenticare: i draghi verdi e il ragioniere della Panda blu, San Siro e i festeggiamenti per lo scudetto e il cadavere nella valigia, il bar che chiude e il grande caos a Chinatown, Umberto Boccioni e il disastro ferroviario dell'Acquabella, il processo al giornale studentesco La Zanzara. E poi il misterioso rapitore dei Navigli, il tour con delitto e la ragazza che ballava il tango, i briganti della Merlata e la cucina cosparsa di sangue (di Giuda), Ornella che parla dal muro e l'ombra della ‘ndrangheta, l'inizio degli anni di piombo, la gatta e il monopattino, il furto del quadro del Bergognone, la visita cardiologica e l'incontro in treno con il Signor Morte. Senza dimenticare la Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, il barbiere che non c'è più e il difettoso esperimento.“Solo cent'anni fa, questo era il Borgo degli Ortolani, anzi, per la precisione, il Borgh di Scigulatt: il borgo dei cipollai. Qui, erano tutte cascine in aperta campagna”...A Milano troviamo zone ricche di storia e altre inurbate di recente, i piccoli paesi e borghi un tempo confinanti con la città e oggi parte integrante della città stessa (Crescenzago, Baggio, Niguarda, Affori) e quartieri costruiti negli anni del boom economico. Quartieri che «sembrano più che mai agire come organismi interconnessi ma allo stesso tempo distinti nella loro unicità. Eppure, proprio in una metropoli così densa mente abitata, ci troviamo di fronte a una delle emergenze più gravi della nostra società: l'isolamento sociale e la crisi della comunità. In questo scenario, i quartieri, intesi come luoghi di relazione e di identità condivisa, possono tornare ad avere un ruolo centrale. Non più o non solo, come palcoscenico di mode passeggere o come brand da vendere a colpi di marketing territoriale – come nel caso di Nolo, Isola o CityLife – ma come spazi di comunità in cui le persone si sentano parte di qualcosa di più grande. I quartieri sono il luogo ideale per sperimentare una “nuova” forma di urbanità, fatta di prossimità, di relazioni quotidiane, di condivisione di spazi pubblici, di servizi e di esperienze. Qui, nel cuore di ogni quartiere, è possibile ricostruire il senso di appartenenza, trovare risposte alle necessità quotidiane e, soprattutto, vivere in un contesto che non sia solo di passaggio, ma di radicamento» (Luca Foschi). Il volume «Milano è Città di quartieri» è la seconda edizione della collana antologica che Neos edizioni dedica a Milano e alle sue storie (il primo volume aveva come protagoniste le donne milanesi). I quartieri che hanno ispirato i racconti: Bovisasca, Bovisa, San Siro, Tortona Solari, Acquabella, Porta Venezia, Musocco, Brera, Crescenzago, Nolo, Calvairate, Porta Volta, Isola, Centrale, Navigli, Ronchetto sul Naviglio, Comasina, Ortica, Centro storico. A cura di Fiorenza Pistocchi e Gian Luca MargheritiRacconti di: Erica Arosio, Elisabetta Berti Arnoaldi, Mauro Biagini, Giancarlo Bosini, Marco Donna, Donatella Genovese, Arrigo Geroli, Rossana Girotto, Giorgio Maimone, Gian Luca Margheriti, Maddalena Molteni, Livia Negri, Davide Palmarini, Angelo Pappadà, Alida Parisi, Fiorenza Pistocchi, Paola Varalli, Gloria Vellini, Anna Versi Masini.Prefazione di Luca Foschi.I diritti d'autore saranno devoluti in beneficenza alla Fondazione Fracta Limina Onlus. IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

From the time we're old enough to hold a crayon, it feels instinctive to draw on the wall. But for MISS CHELOVE – also known as Cita Sadeli – this instinct became a calling. Through bold color and layered symbolism, she transforms everyday public spaces into deeply personal statements, inspiring some passers-by to wonder: what is the role of the public artist? And how can public art both reflect and shape a community's identity?Guests:MISS CHELOVE (also known as Cita Sadeli), independent Washington D.C. - based art director, muralist, designer, and illustrator Sojin Kim, curator for the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center's exhibition: Sightlines, Chinatown and Beyond

On this episode of Mise en Place, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Chef Patrick Hennessy, the longtime culinary vet,  behind Vancouver's Michelin-starred gem, Barbara. Nestled in the heart of Chinatown, Barbara is a testament to Hennessy's remarkable journey—from his early days at West Vancouver's Beach House to Chambar to  honing his craft at global heavyweight Eleven Madison Park, in Manhattan. With a kidney transplant shaping his resilience and a deep love for local, sustainable ingredients, Hennessy has created a 17-seat restaurant that redefines intimate dining. We dive into his creative process, the challenges of running such a small operation. I hope you enjoy our chat, and as always, please DM me with any comments and who I should chat with next. Send us your feedback

"Chinatown" is inarguably one of the greatest films ever made in the United States. While Roman Polanski is often credited for that certitude, the film's editor Sam O'Steen is also largely responsible for the film's place in film history. And the Metrograph Cinema in NYC is once again recognizing Sam's place in the editing pantheon by screening "Chinatown" in a gorgeous 35mm print as part of the ACE Presents series. That's on Saturday, April 26th, 6:50 PM with a post screening conversation between Sam's widow, editor/author/film historian Bobbie O'Steen and her daughter Molly O'Steen. They are my guests on this special episode of the podcast. https://youtu.be/i-mmzpwFT60

Lele Dinner Club is the buzzy new supper club from Pizzana chef and master pizzaiolo Daniele Uditi, offering an exclusive 10-course Neapolitan tasting menu that's quickly become Los Angeles' hottest reservation. With only three seatings so far and a waitlist already topping 6,000 names, this underground culinary experience is redefining LA fine dining. On this episode of The LA Food Podcast, I take Father Sal behind the scenes of the entire Lele Dinner Club journey—how to get in, what's on the menu, and why this immersive, communal experience is unlike anything else in the city's restaurant scene.In Part 2, we're joined by 13-time James Beard Award winner Steve Dolinsky for an exclusive Pizza City Fest Los Angeles 2025 preview. Happening this weekend at LA Live, Pizza City Fest will feature over 40 top pizzerias from across Southern California.

What do we owe to the dead? What responsibilities do we inherit from the past, and how do they intersect with the crises of the present? In an era of ecological collapse and cultural dislocation, how can we meaningfully honour ancestral memory when the material sites of remembrance - tombs, villages, traditions - are themselves vanishing? In this episode, sociologist and author Alice Mah joins us to discuss her new book, Red Pockets, a deeply personal yet globally resonant exploration of ancestry, ecological anxiety, and cultural memory. Mah is a writer and Professor of Urban and Environmental Studies at the University of Glasgow. Originally from a small town in northern British Columbia, she has a long-standing interest in ecology and place. Drawing on her experiences tracing her family's lineage from the rice-growing villages of South China, through the Chinatowns of Western Canada where she was raised, to the post-industrial landscapes of Scotland and England where she now lives, Mah reflects on what it means to reckon with a legacy of silence, displacement, and environmental degradation. As Qingming Festival tomb-sweeping traditions fade and wildfires rage across ancestral lands, Mah's meditation on the “hungry ghosts” of forgotten obligations is both an intimate memoir and a cultural history of rupture.  Joining Mah to discuss environmental sociology, intergenerational responsibility, and the often overlooked spiritual dimensions of ecological grief, is journalist and book critic Mythili Rao.

This week, I'm heading back to San Francisco's Chinatown for another delightfully chaotic mystery with our favourite sixty-something sleuth, Vera Wong. In Jesse Sutanto's latest novel, Vera Wong's Guide to Snooping on a Dead Man, the tea shop is still bustling, but what Vera's craving is just a little more excitement in her now much fuller life. When she encounters a young girl outside the police precinct, Vera senses a mystery in need of an answer, and she's back on the case! A locked briefcase, a viral social media moment, and a trail of secrets are far too much for the calming effects of a cup of her chrysanthemum tea.In this episode, I share my spoiler-free thoughts on this cosy, yet surprisingly dark sequel. I talk about why Vera continues to be such a compelling character and how this book explores found family and identity in the digital age.Whether you loved the first Vera Wong book or you're just dipping your toes into the world of cosy crime and cosy mysteries, this one has humour, heart, high-stakes sleuthing, and a grandmother who's got more guts than your average gumshoe. So, pop the kettle on, settle in, and let's chat all things books.

This week on The Leftovers, never-before-heard audio from Danielle Chang, host of Lucky Chow on PBS. And Rachel Belle takes a very special field trip to Seattle’s Mixed Pantry, a beautifully curated specialty foods shop that exclusively sells Asian and Asian American-made products. On last week’s episode of Your Last Meal, Danielle told Rachel she never goes anywhere without a little vial of high-quality soy sauce in her purse. So Rachel popped into Mixed Pantry for a soy sauce tasting, a fun activity open to anyone who visits. The shop sells soy sauces from several countries, but the tasting centers around the five standard types of Japanese shoyu, owner Tak Kunimune’s specialty. You’ll learn the difference between mainstream commercial soy sauces and traditional barrel-aged ones; how Kikkoman came to be America’s go-to soy sauce; and Tak’s tips on what to cook with each one. Then, a lightning round with Danielle Chang! She shares her favorite Chinatown snack (she's a big fan of the neighborhoods around the world), the Asian dessert she always wants for her birthday and so much more.

The day had come on March 22nd, 2025... the day we crowned the greatest dish in Chinese Cuisine for 2025!  It was a hotly contested battle, voted on by about 60 members of our audience on a beautiful night in Chinatown. Cohosted by myself and the folks from The Worst Quality Crab Podcast and the On Waverly Bookstore, it was truly a fun night! I hope you were able to join us live, but if you weren't, here's our recording. Mark your calendars for next year, we'd love to do another round with lots of your favorites that didn't make this year's list! So many people to thank: Jon for helping me come up with the idea, and Freesia and Sam Lee for adding fuel to the fire and bringing their audience along!  To Cynthia and Jenn for providing a beautiful, inviting place to have it. My friend Steve for running the Zoom, as well as all the staff at On Waverly for keeping things in order and providing prizes and snacks.  And, of course, to everyone who was able to make it down, we couldn't have had this without your votes!

On this episode we're doing something a little different. In the spirit of March Madness we present to you, March Madness of Chinese Cuisine! We partnered with our friend Curtis Chinn of the Infatuasian podcast and our friend Cynthia Huie at On Waverly to record this live, with an audience inside of On Waverly, the best AAPI gift shop and bookstore in Chinatown. This was a just for fun attempt to crown one Chinese dish winner among many excellent choices. It was all for goofs and laughs so please don't @ us if your favorite dish didn't make it out of the first round or didn't make the brackets. They were near impossible choices and my personal pick didn't make it out of round one. Anyway, we hope you enjoy this fun live episode. We'll be back soon with regularly scheduled programming!

Some paths in life aren't so much chosen as they are revealed—often through unexpected encounters, serendipitous moments, or a relentless tug of curiosity. The call to become a healer, to step into the role of a doctor, is often as much about who you are as what you do.In this conversation with Dr. Steven Rosenblatt, we step back into the early days of acupuncture in the West. From his serendipitous meeting with a renowned acupuncturist in Griffith Park to becoming the first Westerner licensed to practice acupuncture in the United States, Steven's story is a rich tapestry of curiosity, perseverance, and pioneering spirit.Listen into this discussion as we explore the underground days of acupuncture in Chinatown, the quest for legal recognition of the medicine, the challenges of integrating acupuncture into mainstream healthcare, and how becoming a doctor is as much an internal calling as it is an external practice.
