Lane Kim is one of the Gilmore Girls fandom's all-time favorite characters! Brilliantly played by Keiko Agena, Lane Kim had a strict, rules-based upbringing plus a burning passion for rock music and playing drums. In today's episode of Gabbing Gilmore, we dig into the repression of Lane Kim. How did growing up in a strict environment impact Lane's personality? How did Mrs. Kim influence her values? When was she willing to stray from being the obedient daughter?

Hi friends!:) Let's discuss this lovely & light episode with TWO double dates involved. Featuring fun facts about the characters of Mrs. Kim and Lane, as well as their wonderful portrayals by Keiko Agena and Emily Kuroda! Here is the recipe I used for the Recipe of the Week. Feel free to try it out and let me know how it went! Strawberry-Blueberry Smoothie (inspired by Sookie and Jackson): Add 4 spoonfuls of frozen blueberries, 3-4 frozen strawberries, 4 spoonfuls of oats, 1 teaspoon matcha, 1 teaspoon cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon peanut butter, and 1 cup of almond milk to a blender. Blend until smooth! :) I love having this smoothie as part of my breakfast! If you do not have frozen fruit, you can use non-frozen, but just make sure to add a few ice cubes to the blender to make the smoothie cold. Feel free to add more almond milk to the blender if you want the smoothie to be less thick. You can also add a sweetener of your choice.

On this Artist’s Brain interview, Stormchaser sat down with actress and improviser Keiko Agena. Keiko’s improvised for years with Ham Radio, Aisian AF, and many other teams. You may know her from one of her many roles on television: she played Lane on Gilmore Girls, Pam Bradley on 13 Reasons Why, and she’s currently playing Dr. Edrisa Tanaka on Prodigal Son - which you still have time to catch up on season 2 on HBO Max before seeing the last couple episodes live on Fox. If that isn’t enough creativity for one person, she’s also a skilled visual artist, and she wrote a creative journal based on mindfulness practices and the improv principle "no mistakes" called No Mistakes: A Workbook for Imperfect Artists (amazon link). On this episode, we dig into the specifics of Keiko’s process as an improviser, as a writer, and as an actor.

Do you want to create more freely? If so, you might wanna shift your relationship to mistakes, and let go of some of that idealism. That’s the central topic of today’s show with actress Keiko Agena.

In today’s episode, we talk about Keiko’s experience as an Asian American woman in the world of acting and Hollywood, why you don’t have to call yourself an artist, and the one thing she recommends you do to bring more creative freedom into your life. As a heads up: For the next eight weeks, there will be an episode dropping every Thursday – alternating between interviews and minisodes. The minisode series is all about boundaries, my favorite topic, so stay tuned for those too. Show Notes: ● On childhood, acting, auditioning and landing a role on Gilmore Girls show. [02:23]● Transitioning from Hawaii to the mainland and realizing how being Asian American would impact her acting career moving forward.

Today’s guest on ADD Comedy is Keiko Agena. Keiko’s been on “Scandal,” “Transformers: Dark of the Moon,” “House M.D.,” and, once and once again, “Gilmore Girls.” I know Keiko from the couple of years when I was her improv director working out of a small theater in a converted two-car garage! Keiko’s a bright light, she’s funny, she’s inspiring, and she’s sensitive. We hit all of it in this honest, true, grounded and, at time serious podchat. Keiko’s awesome, and I was really glad she came over to the apartment. Give it a listen.
This week we have a very special 25th episode edition of the Shipping Room! We are joined by Gilmore Girls star, Keiko Agena, and her cohost of the Drunk Monk podcast, Will Choi, to talk the 'ships of Gilmore Girls. We dive into Lorelai's love life and Rory's big three and take a few minor tangents along the way. Come join us in Stars Hollows and don't forget to share your thoughts with us on twitter @shippingroompod!
