Youngmi Mayer - The Comedian and Author on Her New Memoir, Raising a Son in a Misogynistic World, & Conquering Her Fears to Work in Comedy

Today's guest is comedian, podcaster, and writer Youngmi Mayer.Youngmi is one of the very first people we profiled on MOTHER 10 years ago, back when she—and her ex-husband Danny Bowien—were food world darlings thanks to their restaurant, Mission Chinese Food.It wasn't until several years after becoming a mother that Youngmi finally vocalized the goal she'd had since she was a kid—and was too embarrassed to say out loud—she wanted to be a stand-up comedian. She chronicles this experience—as well as the rise and fall of Mission Chinese—in her brand-new memoir, I'm Laughing Because I'm Crying.The bulk of the book covers her personal history of being raised in Korea by a Korean mother and American father, as well as the powerful stories of the many ancestors that came before her. As the title suggests, the book is at times funny and deeply emotional, as it touches on issues of colonialism, abuse, love, death, motherhood, and generational trauma.In today's conversation, we talk to Youngmi about what she's happily inherited from her own parents, her big breaks in comedy, raising a tween son in a world steeped in misogyny, and her ultimate goal of being relatable.  You can follow Youngmi at @ymmayer on Instagram.Today's episode is brought to you by three mom-owned brands we love—Tubby Todd, Minted, and Ritual.

On this episode of Tell Me About Your Father's pop culture and news review show Daddy Issues!, Erin and Elizabeth are joined by comedian Youngmi Mayer, host of must-listen podcasts "Feeling Asian" and "Hairy Butthole." We talk to Youngmi about comedy being the best way to talk about the worst things, her young adulthood in Korea and why she left to move to the US at age 20, as well as her white father's internalized white supremacy and misogyny. We also discuss the brain-searing experience of being mistaken for your father's girlfriend, and Youngmi's life as a happily divorced single mother to a young son. Then it's on to daddy issues in the news, as we dissect the ironic infantilization of women pregnant enough to have an abortion, and the fetid stench of recent Twitter purchaser Elon Musk and his dad Errol, who married—and has a child with—his stepdaughter. The Musk men stink and our commentary is the spiritual Febreeze you need. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/tell-me-about-your-father/support
