Send us Fan MailKeegan Fong is the founder and owner of Woon, a homestyle Chinese food restaurant and packaged goods line based in Los Angeles. Raised in the Pasadena area, he worked professionally in apparel marketing before transitioning full-time to the culinary industry. Woon initially launched as a pop-up noodle stand in 2014 to share the original recipes of his mother, Julie Chen, also known as Mama Fong. The family-backed venture grew to open its first brick-and-mortar restaurant in Historic Filipinotown in 2019, followed by a second location in Pasadena in 2025, while also expanding its distribution of sauces and pantry staples nationwide. This episode details the evolution of Woon from a temporary food cart into a multi-location restaurant brand and retail packaged goods company. The discussion explores Keegan's professional background in brand building and how those storytelling skills were applied to launch and scale a food business. Key topics include the logistics of scaling family recipes for high-volume commercial kitchens, transitioning from a single brick-and-mortar space to a multi-unit operation, and developing a nationwide consumer packaged goods line for retail distribution. For San Gabriel Valley viewers, this conversation highlights a local business owner who grew up in the region and recently expanded his operations back into Pasadena. The guest's audience will gain insight into the behind-the-scenes mechanics of keeping a family-oriented food brand authentic while managing rapid business growth. Additionally, individuals searching for real-world case studies on restaurant entrepreneurship, career pivots, and scaling retail pantry items will find practical insights into building a brand centered around cultural heritage.

You're mid-combo, nailing your choreography, and suddenly—snap! The floor shifts beneath you, pain shoots up your leg, and your rehearsal dreams hit pause. This week on Performers Happiness in the Arts (PHARTS), Jenna Kantor, PT, DPT—dance medicine specialist and performer—dives deep into one of the most common and frustrating injuries for musical theatre artists: the ankle sprain. Whether you're a dancer landing from a tour jeté, a singer gliding across stage in character heels, or an actor pivoting during a quick scene change, your ankles are the unsung heroes of your performance. Learn how to spot the difference between a mild twist and a true sprain, why these injuries happen so often onstage, and what the science says about your recovery timeline. We'll also unpack research showing that up to 70% of dancers experience an ankle injury during their career (Steinberg et al., Tel Aviv University, 2011) and discuss how even minor sprains can affect balance, mobility, and confidence long after the swelling fades. This episode walks you through: The anatomy behind a sprain (why the ATFL is always in the spotlight) What the healing phases really look like for performers How to safely return to turns, jumps, and stage movement Evidence-based prevention tools that keep you performing pain-free ✨ Referenced Research: Steinberg, N., Hershkovitz, I., et al.

In 2018, Jefferson Glassie interviewed Michael for Episode 55 of Planetary Gig Talk. Their conversation was profound, and addressed many fantastic musical topics. They decided another conversation would be good to do, and this one covers more incredibly esoteric and important musical topics, including intention, the holographic nature of the universe, vibration, quantum physics, perfection of intent, music shamans, the Fong, Hermeticism, and many more.
In what will be the last edition of the 2026 NBA Draft scouting series, Owen and Fong give their analysis on Arizona guard Brayden Burries and Tennessee wing Nate Ament.Both players are projected a little lower than 7 on most mock drafts but they present interesting options the Kings could go if they really want to surprise fans.They then talk about the Spurs and Knicks making the finals and how the Kings are unfortunately linked to the parties involved.And they end the episode talking about some wrestling.Use code SKT15 on checkout to get 15% off from HYVDesigns on Etsy during checkout or use this link: https://www.etsy.com/shop/hyvdesigns/?etsrc=sdt&coupon=SKT15Intro Music by Blue Dot Sessions. https://www.sessions.blueIf you want to email us: kingtherapypod@gmail.com

What if one of the most overlooked factors affecting memory consolidation, emotional regulation, practice efficiency, and performance consistency wasn't a new practice strategy - but sleep?Dr. Joanna Fong-Isariyawongse is a triple board-certified neurologist, sleep specialist, and epileptologist at the University of Pittsburgh, where her work focuses on cognitive performance, sleep, and neurological recovery under high-demand conditions. In addition to her clinical and academic work, she consults with high-performing populations including professional athletes, executives, pilots, and first responders, and has served as a neurology consultant to the Pittsburgh Steelers.In this episode, we explore why practice sometimes doesn't “stick,” how sleep affects emotional reactivity and performance anxiety, why pianists improved 10-13% overnight without additional practice, how naps and “sleep banking” can help before auditions and performances, what musicians should know about jet lag and chronotypes, and the surprisingly small sleep habits that may have the biggest impact on performing at your true level.Get all the nerdy details in this month's interview:Joanna Fong-Isariyawongse: The Science of Sleep for MusiciansMore from The Bulletproof MusicianGet the free weekly newsletter, for more nerdy details and bonus subscriber-only content.Pressure Proof: A free 7-day performance practice crash course that will help you shrink the gap between the practice room and the stage.Learning Lab: A continuing education community where musicians and learners are putting research into practice.Live and self-paced courses
For decades, a tight carotid stenosis felt like a ticking time bomb — a plaque waiting to throw an embolus and cause the next stroke. We were taught that severe narrowing meant surgery, and trials like ACAS and ACST-1 seemed to prove it. But medicine has changed. Statins, antiplatelets, tighter blood pressure control, even PCSK9 and GLP-1 therapies have quietly slashed stroke risk, and now newer data from CREST-2 suggest that for many asymptomatic patients, the knife — or the stent — may not add much at all. So if modern medical therapy works better than ever… who actually benefits from intervention anymore? Today, we unpack the evidence, the controversies, and how to counsel the patient who feels perfectly fine but has high-grade stenosis.Hosts: Carolyn Judge, Andrew Huang, Luciano Delbono, Frank Davis, Robert BeaulieuInstitution: University of Michigan, Department of Surgery, Section of Vascular SurgeryLearning objectives: Describe how modern intensive medical therapy has transformed the natural history of asymptomatic carotid stenosis and explain why contemporary patients experience substantially lower annual stroke risk than those in earlier eras. Interpret and compare the results of landmark trials—including ACAS, ACST-1, and CREST-2—to assess the relative benefits of medical therapy, endarterectomy, and stenting. Apply current evidence and guideline recommendations to patient care by selecting which asymptomatic patients are most likely to benefit from carotid revascularization versus optimized medical therapy alone.

There was no more trenchant and substantive critic of the Left from the Left in the 1960s and 1970s than Bayard Rustin. Some liberals and leftists today valorize Rustin on the basis of his multiple oppressed identities and civil rights organizing. On the other hand, many others dismiss him for being compromised by his commitment to the Democratic Party or by his deep suspicion of the new forms of left activism that appeared in the mid-1960s. While Rustin certainly made some strategic mis-steps later in life, his challenges to the New Left, Black Power, and a regressing liberal establishment from 1964 until his passing in 1987 were insightful, cutting, and often quite prescient. At a time when the Left is in dire need of self-reflection and reorientation, Rustin's work has gained a new relevance and urgency. In a new collection of Rustin's writings from this period, Fong and Prescod gathered together articles and speeches that represent Rustin's Challenge to the Left of his day. Some of the pieces of Rustin's writing chosen for inclusion have been published before, but only in pamphlets or newspapers from many decades ago. Some will be published for the first time here.The volume also includes commentaries on these pieces by Adolph Reed, Jr., Jennifer Silva, Les Leopold, Mark Dudzic, Jen Pan, John-Baptiste Oduor, and many others, all contextualizing Rustin's challenge and demonstrating its continuing applicability. Matthis Frickhoeffer is a scholar of critical theory and French thought with a background in literature studies, linguistics and art theory. His work focuses on questions of form, semiotics, and intertextuality. He teaches at the University of Texas at Dallas. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Kings were outmatched and outshot from 3 all game, but it did not matter.They kept playing hard, made plays and got great shots of their own to storm back to win the game.This will further tank their lottery odds but does it matter in a system that at its core is just a crapshoot?Owen and Fong also discuss the poorly received return of Pat McAfee and his insertion into the Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton feud.Use code SKT15 on checkout to get 15% off from HYVDesigns on Etsy during checkout or use this link: https://www.etsy.com/shop/hyvdesigns/?etsrc=sdt&coupon=SKT15Intro Music by Blue Dot Sessions. https://www.sessions.blueIf you want to email us: kingtherapypod@gmail.com

On Amazon, labour & logistics, and trains. Benjamin Fong, of ASU's Center for Work and Democracy, as well as an editor at Damage and co-author of the substack On The Seams, talks to Alex and George about organising workers in locations of corporate vulnerability. We also preview the forthcoming print issue of Damage, Trains, by discussing modernity and its avatars, and development and de-development in Brazil. Why target Amazon above all else? What are the "seams" and why are they important? Can labour still "go after the big targets"? Do these still exist given the dispersion of production and distribution? How much public appetite is there for blockages at pain points?

Alas, another loss for the Kings in this season. The Kings were in a hole early but were able to come back and lead briefly, only for the Sixers to get control back and never relinquish it.The Kings simply don't have the fire power to match teams like the Sixers and it's an issue they need to address in the off-season.In addition to the game, Owen and Fong talk about the WNBA coming to terms on a new CBA and the Afroman defamation case.Use code SKT15 on checkout to get 15% off from HYVDesigns on Etsy during checkout or use this link: https://www.etsy.com/shop/hyvdesigns/?etsrc=sdt&coupon=SKT15Intro Music by Blue Dot Sessions. https://www.sessions.blueIf you want to email us: kingtherapypod@gmail.com

Pearls on men used to get laughed at. Now they're a quiet flex for anyone who understands style. We sit down with Jordan Fong, a Hawaii-based jeweler and photographer from the Bay Area, to talk about how he built a look, a network, and a creative life by staying true to what he likes even when it wasn't “normal.”We start with jewelry and fashion, including why pearls became his signature, how custom pieces come to life, and what it means to be different without trying to be louder than everyone else. Jordan breaks down the real value of personal style: it's not about clout, it's about self-respect, consistency, and the connections you create when you show up as yourself. If you're curious about custom jewelry in Hawaii, men's pearl necklaces, and building a niche that actually fits you, you'll get practical insight and mindset in the same conversation.Then we shift into photography, where Jordan shares nearly two decades of experience and how shooting sports trained his eye for timing, emotion, and the moment. We talk about capturing strong images in camera, keeping edits minimal, collaborating with clients before the shoot, and using Instagram marketing to grow without losing the human side of the work. We also get real about competition, gear, and why the hustle never replaces having an actual point of view.If you're building your own creative path, press play, then subscribe, share this with a friend who needs confidence, and leave a review. What's one style or creative choice you've held back on because of other people's opinions?
LilypaDesigns is run by Lily Fong—designer, pattern maker, and proud bra nerd with a master's in education and over 30 years of sewing experience. Her patterns are all about wearing comfy bras. LilypaDesigns Once a middle school algebra teacher, Lily now helps people sew bras that actually fit—especially if you've got a full bust, a small band, or a body that's never quite matched “standard” sizing. Her patterns use a body-aware system built on real breast measurements—not just full bust minus underbust—and the unique shape of each person's breast root. Think of it like grading a dress across bust, waist, and hip... only this time, it's for your bra. With choose-your-own-adventure-style instructions, inclusive sizing, and plenty of teaching along the way, LilypaDesigns helps sewists build skills, confidence, and bras that feel as good as they fit. Lily's work has been featured in Threads, Sew News, The Pattern Pages, Bra Sewing Bee, and several sewing podcasts. Through her patterns, blog, online courses, and community, she's helped thousands of sewists find support in every sense of the wor Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Kelley Fong, Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of California, Irvine and author of the award-winning book Investigating Families: Motherhood in the Shadow of Child Protective Services, and Frank Edwards, Associate Professor at the Rutgers University School of Criminal Justice, join us to discuss their new study examining the relationship between foster care entry rates and child maltreatment mortality rates. Drawing on 16 years of federal and state data from AFCARS and NCANDS, they explore a deeply consequential question: does increasing foster care entry actually reduce child maltreatment fatalities?Their findings challenge some widely held assumptions about how foster care functions as a tool for child safety. Kelley and Frank unpack what the data does and does not show. They also explore what this means for child welfare policy, why CPS systems are largely reactive rather than preventative, and how foster care has increasingly functioned as a catch-all intervention for family instability. They discuss the urgent need for more research in this largely unstudied space and whether safer, less invasive approaches could better protect children while preserving families. Their study is open access and available to read in full here.The EPPiC Broadcast is hosted by Michael Ramey, President of the Parental Rights Foundation.
