On this Taste Test of The Halo Halo Podcast, Sigi samples "Turning Red" now streaming on Disney+. Domee Shi's Toronto based  movie tells the tale of 13 year old Mei Lin, an overachieving 8th grader who is trying to balance her interests in boy bands and anime; maintaining her relationship with her parents by doing them proud and calming her new found inner, or rather outer panda. This coming of age story tackles not only the physical changes, but the emotional changes that a first generation immigrant teenager experiences.  Grab a box of Pocky Sticks, feed that Tamagotchi, and pop and lock to the tunes of 4-Town in this funny and touching romp.

Jodi, Alex and Philip discuss the new Pixar film, 'Turning Red,' available now on Disney+. The third major animated Pixar film to be released directly to the streaming service with no premium surcharge, 'Turning Red' has been an object of praise and criticism for tackling themes of adolescence. Any risk of an awkward family viewing experience is greatly superseded, however, by 'Turning Red's' charming characters and signature heartfelt storytelling from Pixar. Mei Lin is a 13-year old living in 2002 Toronto whose family carries an enchanted bloodline allowing the women to transform into a giant red panda upon reaching adulthood. This creates problems at home and at school, altering Mei Lin's promising future along with her most treasured relationships.

We were all awkward in our teen years and Mei Lee is no exception! Join us as we talk about this Disney/Pixar movie that has everyone bringing out their inner panda!

Have you seen the new Pixar movie, Turning Red? Even if you haven't watched it yet, I'm guessing you may have heard about it—and some of what you heard might not have been good. Spoiler alert: I disagree with the criticism being thrown at this movie, and we are here to talk about the giant panda in the room today.   First, the basics – Turning Red is an animated kids movie about a 13-year-old girl living in Toronto. Mei-Lin is Chinese-Canadian, and like pretty much every 13-year-old ever, she's also going through some changes. After a particularly difficult interaction with her mom, she turns into a giant red panda. Before this movie was even released last week, I was reading criticism and that did not stop after the public could flip on Disney+ and watch for themselves.   I invited my friends Michelle Reyes and Tasha Jun to talk with me about Turning Red, and I hope you'll join us on the couch for a conversation full of, yes, pushback and opinions but also really good insight from my friends who are moms, Christians, and Asian Americans.   If you've been waiting for things to get spicy here on The Couch, today is your day. Let's jump right in.   MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:   “Turning Red” is a turning point for Asians in film. Why is it seen as unrelatable?

When you think about the deep blue sea, you might instantly think of whales or coral reefs. But spare a thought for giant clams, the world's largest living shellfish. These incredible creatures can live to 100, grow up to four and a half feet long and weigh as much as three baby elephants. In this charming talk, marine biologist Mei Lin Neo shares why she's obsessively trying to turn these legendary sea creatures into heroes of the oceans. Hosted on Acast.

Quand vous pensez à la mer bleue et profonde , vous pouvez instantanément penser à des baleines et des récifs coralliens. Mais pensez aux mollusques géants, les plus grands au monde. Ces créatures incroyables peuvent vivre jusqu'à 100 ans, mesurer jusqu'à 1,37m de longueur et avoir un poids égal à trois bébés éléphants. Dans ce charmant discours, Mei Lin Neo, spécialiste en biologie marine, partage pourquoi elle essaie de transformer ces légendaires créatures en héros de l'océan.

Si pensamos en el mar azul profundo, puede que pensemos de inmediato en las ballenas o en los arrecifes de coral. Pero pensemos por un momento en las ostras gigantes, el marisco vivo más grande del mundo. Estas criaturas increíbles pueden vivir hasta 100 años, crecer hasta un metro y medio de largo y pueden pesar como tres elefantes bebé. En esta charla encantadora la bióloga marina Mei Lin Neo comparte su obsesión por convertir a estas legendarias criaturas marinas en heroínas de los océanos.

사람들에게 깊고 푸른 바다를 상상할 기회가 주어진다면, 가장 먼저 고래나 산호초를 떠올릴 것입니다. 하지만 세상에서 가장 큰 조개인 대왕조개를 한 번 생각해보면 어떨까요. 이 놀라운 생물은 100년이나 살 수 있고 137cm까지 자라며 아기 코끼리 세 마리를 합친 무게 만큼이나 무겁습니다. 이 놀라운 강연을 통해, 해양 생물학자인 메이 린 네오는 전설 속 이야기에나 등장하는 바다 생물을 바다의 영웅으로 바꾸고자 하는 이유를 설명합니다.

Wenn wir an das tiefblaue Meer denken, kommen uns wahrscheinlich sofort Bilder von Walen oder Korallenriffen in den Sinn. Aber denken wir doch auch einmal an die Riesenmuschel, das größte lebende Schalentier der Welt. Diese faszinierenden Lebewesen können ein Alter von 100 Jahren, eine Länge von über einem Meter und das Gewicht von drei Elefantenjungen erreichen. In diesem bezaubernden Vortrag verrät uns die Meeresbiologin Mei Lin Neo, warum sie sich so leidenschaftlich dafür einsetzt, die legendären Meerestiere zu Helden der Ozeane zu machen.

Quando pensamos no mar azul profundo, talvez imaginemos baleias ou recifes de corais. Mas nele também existem as ostras-gigantes, os maiores mariscos do mundo. Essas criaturas incríveis podem viver até 100 anos, atingir até 1,4 metro de comprimento e pesar o mesmo que três filhotes de elefante juntos. Nesta palestra encantadora, a bióloga marinha Mei Lin Neo explica por que ela vem obsessivamente tentando transformar essas criaturas marinhas lendárias em heroínas dos oceanos.

In de zomer een winkel voor frozen yoghurt, maar in de winter een winkelconcept voor noodles. Mei Lin Ang raakte na het introduceren van frozen yoghurt in Nederland verslingerd aan het ondernemerschap: ‘Mijn doel voor het eerste jaar was het realiseren van 4 à 5 winkels, het werden er 7.’ExperimentTijdens haar vakantie naar Amerika kwam zij er voor het eerst mee in aanraking: de frozen yoghurt. Gefascineerd door de enorme populariteit van het caloriearme ijsje, besloot zij op onderzoek uit te gaan in Nederland: ‘We zitten in een land met de beste yoghurt van de wereld, het was voor mij vreemd dat wij zoiets nog niet hadden.’Mei Lin Ang besloot daarom te gaan experimenteren om zelf frozen yoghurt te maken. Aan de keukentafel nodigde ze verschillende hockey teams uit om de verschillende smaken te proeven. In samenwerking met een art director ging ze vervolgens aan de slag met het merk Frozz. In 2010 opende ze de eerste Frozz-winkel in de 9-straatjes in Amsterdam. Inmiddels werkt Frozz samen met de Bijenkorf en Schiphol, en zijn er 12 winkels, waaronder één in Portugal.OodlesOm ook in de wintermaanden een juiste bestemming te vinden voor de Frozz-winkels, bedacht Mei Lin Ang het concept Oodlz. In dezelfde winkels zijn dan in de wintermaanden ook noodles te vinden. Volgens de mede-oprichter van Frozz en Oodlz kunnen mensen op straat zo altijd iets gezonds vinden: ‘Dat is uiteindelijk ons doel’.Mei Lin Ang hoopt de komende jaren zeker honderden winkels te kunnen openen met behulp van franchise ondernemers. Volgens de ondernemer biedt franchising daarbij de ultieme groeistrategie: ‘Op die manier heb je geen eigen kapitaal nodig’.Kleding Karin Husslage: Armani via PerfectlyBasics.nl
