"Gen Z in Vietnam are so driven. They're baristas in the morning, creators by night, and students in between." - Adele DoanThis conversation with Adele Doan was full of energy, insight, and plenty of laughs. Adele's a TEDx speaker, community builder at Workflow, founder of Career Lab, and LinkedIn influencer with over 80,000 followers—and it's clear she's leading the charge in how young Vietnamese people think about work, social media, and identity.We talked about everything from learning English through How I Met Your Mother, to why Facebook is too noisy for professionals, and how Gen Z in Vietnam are hustling in new, creative ways. She also opened up about the evolution of Saigon—what's changed, what hasn't, and what still needs to happen, especially in terms of art, culture, and public spaces. Adele's mission is all about using social media with intention and building meaningful careers, and this episode is packed with stories and ideas to inspire anyone navigating the future of work in Vietnam.Key TakeawaysLinkedIn is still an untapped opportunity in Vietnam – and Adele's helping Gen Z unlock it. English and confidence can come from unconventional places—even sitcoms. Gen Z are balancing school, work, and content creation with incredible drive. Facebook is cluttered—LinkedIn is where career-focused conversations are happening.Saigon is growing fast—but still lacks creative spaces, museums, and arts infrastructure. Chapters & Timestamps04:30 – Learning English Through Sitcoms & Self-Confidence"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

 "Why do Vietnamese people love seafood pizza? 'Cause it's disgusting." - Niall MackayFind out in this episode why Vietnamese people love seafood pizza! You may be surprised to find out why.With Krista Hope and Adrie Lopez Mackay, we delve into this curious culinary choice and how pizza in Vietnam has changed with a bit of humor and a lot of curiosity. Sharing personal takes on what makes this dish universally loved we explore the cultural and gastronomic factors that influence its life in Vietnam. Over 7 Bridges Craft Beer we discuss the flavors and traditions that make pizza in Vietnam a contentious yet fascinating topic.02:46 Sustainable Brewing and Pizza07:00 Pizza in Vietnam: Then and Now12:44 The Controversy of Pizza Toppings17:17 Enjoying Recycled Ingredient Pizza17:57 Exploring Local Pizza Joints22:26 Cultural Differences in Pizza Preferences24:13 Vietnamese Perspective on Pizza27:25 Seafood Pizza and Market Adaptation29:58 Final Thoughts and Ratings"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

“ Drag, I think, is also just a form of art that it doesn't really require you to have any experience in art.” - Gia NguyenGia's story is one of resilience, self-expression, and community-building, and I think that really shines through in our discussion. It was insightful, energetic, and, most importantly, a conversation that truly needed to be had. We talked about everything from craft beer to drag culture in Vietnam, and Gia's perspective on how the country is evolving was fascinating.What really struck me was how accepting Vietnam is of the LGBTQ+ community, especially compared to some other countries. Gia shared that while there are still challenges, the overall cultural attitude is one of curiosity rather than judgment. It's refreshing to hear that queer people can express themselves openly without fear of widespread discrimination. This is one of the reasons I love Vietnam so much – the people here may be conservative in some ways, but they also have a deep-rooted respect for others living their truths.Gia's journey into drag was another highlight for me. It was a spur-of-the-moment decision that led to years of performances, community organizing, and the creation of Peach, a space where people of all identities can express themselves. That level of passion and commitment to representation is something that truly deserves recognition.Niall MackayKey Takeaways:- LGBTQ+ acceptance in Vietnam is deeply rooted in traditional religious practices- Vietnamese society tends to be curious rather than judgmental about LGBTQ+ expression|"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

“We are up at the crack of dawn. It's so early in the morning that the fish are still asleep.” This video captures our early morning adventure in Da Lat, filled with various activities and hidden gems. Our day begins at dawn and involves cloud hunting—a unique activity of watching clouds roll over the hills. We drive through town, witnessing the quiet before the city awakens and humorously comparing it to nightlife in other regions. Our strawberry picking plans hit a snag as we realize it's off-season, leading us to buy strawberries from a roadside vendor instead. The adventure continues with a visit to a local chocolate factory offering a tasting session, highlighting hidden gem number eight. We also explore the Maize Bar, a labyrinthine establishment inspired by the Crazy House, culminating in spectacular views over the rolling hills of Da Lat. Alongside these activities, we savor local dishes such as Vietnamese pizza (Banh Trang Nuong) and Da Lat pancakes with quail eggs. This episode encapsulates the diverse attractions and culinary experiences that make Da Lat a fascinating destination.00:00 Early Morning Adventures01:33 Cloud Hunting Excitement04:10 Exploring Hidden Gems10:15 Breakfast Delights14:57 Strawberry Picking Misadventures20:57 Strawberry Picking in Da Lat21:58 Exploring the Chocolate Factory23:00 Tasting Chocolate Samples27:02 Discovering Vietnamese Pizza31:38 Maze Bar Adventure34:12 Navigating the Maze Bar39:53 Concluding Thoughts and Farewell

"Vietnam is becoming more open, more expressive, and more accepting. It's exciting to see."This was such a fascinating conversation with Phuong Truong, the owner of Twist Coffee Bar, one of Saigon's best LGBTQ+ friendly spaces. We talked about the evolution of queer spaces in Vietnam, how attitudes toward the LGBTQ+ community are shifting, and why sex education in Vietnam still has a long way to go.One of the things I loved most about this conversation was hearing how Vietnam isn't necessarily anti-LGBTQ+—it's just that for many people, it's still something new. As Phuong put it, many people in rural areas haven't been exposed to it, so their first reaction isn't rejection—it's curiosity. That's a perspective we don't often hear.Key TakeawaysLGBTQ+ spaces in Saigon are growing, and Twist Coffee Bar is a perfect example of that. Vietnamese society isn't necessarily anti-LGBTQ+—it's just that exposure is still limited in rural areas. The shift from a coffee shop to an LGBTQ+ bar was an organic one—and business actually grew. Sex education in Vietnam is still awkward and outdated, leaving young people uninformed. Vietnamese culture leans more toward acceptance than open discrimination. Chapters & Timestamps04:00 – How Saigon's LGBTQ+ Spaces Have Evolved06:00 – Attitudes Toward LGBTQ+ People in Rural Vietnam vs. the Cities10:00 – Why Vietnam Feels More Accepting Than Some Western Countries24:00 – The Awkward Reality of Sex Education in Vietnam30:00 – Religion, Karma, and"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

Join Adrie and I (and Biscuit) on an adventure through Da Lat as we uncover hidden gems and more! We started with a trek that Google Maps recommended but were blocked by security, leading us to Happy Hill Café with stunning views and Instagram-worthy spots. While there, we observed the excessive use of plastic in such a natural setting. We then ventured to the Crazy House, a Gaudi-esque marvel designed uniquely. Throughout our journey, we navigated Da Lat's scenic routes, met locals with impressive English skills, and enjoyed lunch outdoors. Despite some challenges, the exploration was filled with beautiful landscapes, local culture, and of course, our furry friend Biscuit. This video captures the beauty, quirks, and environmental concerns of Dalat, making it a must-watch for future travelers!00:00 Introduction and Trek Plans00:48 Encounter with Security Guards01:01 Enjoying Coffee at Happy Hill02:10 Observations on English Proficiency04:57 Plastic Waste Concerns in Vietnam07:33 Exploring Hidden Gems09:39 Attempting the Trek Again12:38 Lunch at Moe Bistro15:14 Visiting the Crazy House"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!Support the show

"We don't always take a straight path in life. Sometimes, the detours lead to the most exciting places."This conversation with Ben Nguyen was an inspiring discovery into the creative journey of someone who has truly embraced change. From growing up in Hanoi to studying in Japan and working with global brands like IKEA and Trunk Hotel, Ben's story is a testament to following your passions—even when it means taking unexpected turns.One of my favorite parts of this episode was discussing the power of saying yes to opportunities. Ben didn't plan to work in social media, but thanks to a viral Instagram post of his dog, he found himself managing digital content for a luxury boutique hotel in Tokyo.Key TakeawaysSaying yes to unexpected opportunities can change your career—Ben's social media success started with a dog video.Work-life balance in Japan is intense, but international companies operate differently. The cultural differences between Hanoi and Saigon are more than just accents—each city has its own unique vibe.Creativity isn't always a straight path.

“Dalat is full of hidden gems—you just have to know where to look.”Dalat has always had a special charm, but this trip was all about discovering the lesser-known spots that make it truly unique. From scenic coffee farms to quiet nature trails, we set out to uncover places that offer something beyond the usual tourist stops. And of course, Biscuit came along for the adventure—because if anyone loves the cool mountain air, it's her.One thing I love about Dalat is how easy it is to explore. We hopped on a motorbike and within minutes, we were riding past pine-covered hills, flower farms, and roadside cafés that felt like they belonged in a movie. Along the way, we met locals, tasted some interesting drinks (cheese coffee, anyone?), and enjoyed the kind of fresh air you just don't get in Saigon.If you're looking for the real Dalat beyond the usual tourist spots, this episode is for you. Get ready for scenic views, local flavors, and a few unexpected twists along the way!Key TakeawaysDalat's cool climate makes it perfect for growing strawberries, flowers, and wineRenting a motorbike in Vietnam is unbelievably easy—just show up, pay, and ride.Dalat Eden is a must-visit café with fresh local produce, beautiful gardens, and Instagram-worthy drinks. The town is packed with dog-friendly spots—Biscuit had just as much fun as we did. Hidden bars exist in Dalat—we found one disguised as a video game shop. Chapters and Timestamps:01:00 – The French Influence & Climate of Dalat04:00 – Hidden Gem #1: Dalat Eden Café & Gardens09:00 – Hidden Gem #2: Roadside Viewpoints & Dog-Friendly Stops12:00 – Exploring Dalat's Northern Side & Finding Local Gems19:00 – Hidden Gem"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

“ Vietnam is the number two producer of coffee in the world, which blew my mind because I didn't know that as a Vietnamese American.” - Sarah NguyenRevisiting this conversation reminded me why I started this podcast—to amplify powerful stories, and Sarah Nguyen's journey is nothing short of inspiring. Her passion for reshaping the global coffee industry, advocating for Vietnamese coffee farmers, and pushing for diversity and transparency is exactly the kind of discussion that makes podcasting so rewarding.What stood out most was Sarah's deep connection to her heritage and her unwavering commitment to redefining the perception of Vietnamese coffee in the U.S. She broke down long-held misconceptions about Robusta beans and exposed how "Vietnamese coffee" is often misrepresented in specialty cafés. But her mission extends beyond coffee—it's about cultural preservation, economic empowerment, and challenging industry biases.Beyond the coffee industry, we explored themes of identity, language, and the Asian American experience. Sarah's openness about her family's refugee journey and the broader challenges facing the AAPI community added an important layer of depth to our conversation. Whether you're hearing it for the first time or revisiting it in this remastered edition, this episode remains just as powerful. From her surreal Drew Barrymore moment to her insights on sustainability and ethical sourcing, this conversation is packed with energy, authenticity, and game-changing ideas.Key Takeaways:Vietnam's Coffee Industry is Vastly"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

"We can't be creative all the time. We have to be like a vegetable on the couch sometimes." - Chris NguyenChris's story is one of adaptability, creativity, and carving out your own space in a world that often demands labels. I loved this conversation because it really encapsulated what it means to be a third culture kid—straddling different worlds, blending influences, and figuring out where you truly belong.We talked about everything from UX design to content creation, and what really stood out to me was Chris's perspective on finding a niche—or rather, not having one. He's embraced a philosophy of creative exploration, which is refreshing in a world that constantly pushes us to specialize.Another highlight for me was our discussion on the expat experience in Vietnam. Chris has a unique vantage point as someone with Vietnamese heritage but a Western upbringing, and he shed light on how that shapes his interactions with both locals and other expats. His insights into the fast-growing creative and tech scene in Vietnam were fascinating, especially for anyone looking to start a business or build a career here.It was a conversation full of laughs, deep insights, and, most importantly, a real look at what it means to build a life across cultures. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.Key Takeaways:The idea of a "niche" is overrated—authenticity matters more.Creativity comes in waves, and that's okay. You don't have to be productive all the time.Expats in Vietnam often get pigeonholed into certain labels, but everyone has a unique story."Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

Hang Tien 1 is part of a vast cave system in Phong Nha, connected by a river and featuring around 30 individual caves. In this episode, we explore the challenges of making these caves accessible for tourism and uncover fascinating details about their discovery and naming history.With an entrance measuring a massive 90 meters high and 50 meters wide, Hang Tien 1's entrance is even larger than the world-famous Son Doong Cave. However, Son Doong holds the title of the world's largest cave by volume, spanning an incredible 38.4 million cubic meters.Join me as we dive into the wonders of this incredible cave system and the unique geological features that make it such an awe-inspiring destination.04:46 Cave System Naming and Structure05:01 Tourism and Accessibility05:11 Cave Dimensions and Comparisons05:23 Song Doong Cave vs. Other Caves05:36 Volume Recognition of Caves"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!Support the show

“I keep forgetting that I'm in Vietnam, the country that I live in.” This episode was one of the most exciting and adventurous ones we've done so far. Exploring the caves in Phong Nha truly felt like stepping into another world—massive chambers, stunning rock formations, and even a bit of a Lord of the Rings vibe. The trek itself was no joke either—river crossings, steep climbs, and the constant challenge of staying warm and dry made it a real test of endurance. But that's what made it so rewarding. Pushing ourselves physically and getting to experience such a breathtaking environment was absolutely worth it.- Niall MackayKey Takeaways:Hang Tien Cave is part of the world's largest cave systemHuu explains how the tour supports local employmentDetailed explanation of limestone cave formation processRiverside campsite with sauna facilitiesEvening meal featuring local Vietnamese cuisine prepared by portersChapters & Timestamps:01:00 – What's Ahead: Trekking, River Crossings & Cave Exploring02:00 – The Brutal Climb Out of the Cave04:00 – Inside the Hang Tien Cave: A Geological Wonder06:00 – A Proper Lord of the Rings Experience07:00 – The Freezing River Challenge: To Swim or Not to Swim?08:00 – Camping by the River & Sauna Time09:00 – Local Food & Stories from the Porters10:00 – The Haunting Sounds of the Cave: A Ghost Story"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Support the show

Her insights into how Hanoi's culture, tourism, and food scene have evolved over the years gave me a fresh perspective on a city I thought I already knew so well. It reminded me of the magic that Hanoi holds, from the chaotic charm of Train Street to the serenity of Halong Bay, and how it continues to captivate both newcomers and long-term residents alike.

"I can't imagine how massive the cave is... it could be fit one Boeing airplane in the cave, or four 50 Building Floors." -  Hoàng Văn HữuThis trek through Phong Nha with Hoàng Văn Hữu offered an incredible glimpse into how tourism has transformed this region of Vietnam. What struck me most was the stark contrast between past and present - where locals once had to resort to dangerous activities like logging and collecting unexploded bombs for metal, they now have opportunities in the growing tourism sector. Hữu's personal journey from learning English to becoming a cave guide perfectly exemplifies this transformation.The most fascinating aspect was learning about Son Doong Cave and how carefully they're managing its tourism. Limiting visitors to just 1,000 per year shows remarkable foresight in preservation, especially considering the cave's massive size - being able to fit a Boeing airplane or a 50-story building inside is mind-boggling. The detailed organization of the tours, from fitness checks to the high guide-to-tourist ratio, demonstrates their commitment to both safety and conservation.5 Key TakeawaysThe Life-Changing Power of Learning English – Huu shares how learning English transformed his opportunities in Phong Nha, shifting his career from farming to becoming a tour guide. The Danger of Unexploded Bombs – Many villagers still risk their lives collecting scrap metal from unexploded bombs, a remnant of past wars in Vietnam. The Conservation Efforts Behind Son Doong Cave – Tourism in Son Doong Cave is highly restricted to protect its fragile ecosystem, allowing only 1,000 visitors per year. The Toughest Challenges of the Trek – From river crossings to steep jungle climbs, this adventure demands serious fitness and preparation. The Evolution of Phong Nha as a Tourist Destination – Once ove"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!

"Our traffic jams are herds of ducks and families of water buffaloes." - Faryl HoangTalking with Faryl about her journey, her experiences as a Vietnamese-American rediscovering her roots, and what it's really like to live in a place as magical as Hoi An was fascinating. Her perspective offered a really balanced view—yes, it's paradise, but it also has its challenges. That's something I always try to emphasize when we romanticize a place. Hoi An isn't just lanterns and slow riverboat rides; it's also a living, breathing community that's evolving in real time.One of my biggest takeaways from this conversation was how we, as expats, often view progress differently from locals. The discussion about KFC and Starbucks coming to Hoi An was a perfect example. While foreigners might resist these changes, the local community celebrates them. It's a reminder that we're guests in these places, and our nostalgia for an "untouched" Vietnam doesn't necessarily align with what people living there actually want.Also, I just loved the moment when Faryl's dog started barking because a family of buffalo was walking by her house! That's the kind of real-life, unfiltered Vietnam I love capturing on this podcast. It was a great episode that blended travel, history, and a bit of cultural reality check all in one.- Niall MackayKey Takeaways:- The Reality of Living in Hoi An – Hoi An is stunning but lacks Western conveniences. No shopping malls, no major grocery stores—life here requires a slower pace.- The Changing Face of Vietnam – The arrival of big chains like KFC and Starbucks sparked debates among expats, but locals were thrilled. It's a sign of progress and accessibility, not just commercialization.- The Complexity of the Vietnamese Language – Even for someone with Vietnamese heritage like Faryl, learning the language is incredibly challenging due to regional dialects and pronunciation differences.- Hidden Gems Near Hoi An – Bac Ma National Park between Da Nang and Hue is an under-the-radar spot for hiking, wildlife conservation, and stunning landscapes.- Hoi An's Nightlife is Underrated – From backpacker chaos at Tiger Tiger to r"Send me a message!"Support the show

Yesterday, Neal's project got a step closer to groundbreaking. But he still expects pushback. Next: The City of Sarasota spent quite some time and money to have a new logo designed. On Monday, they picked their choice. It's probably not what you think. Then: Roundabouts have turned many Sarasotans from foes into friends after they have been able to experience them first-hand.

In the craft beer world, where a new brewery seems to sprout up every day, a fresh logo alone won't set you apart. Join the Brand Weaver in this rollercoaster presentation designed specifically for brewery owners ready to dive deeper than mere aesthetics. Discover the core differences between a simple redesign and a full on rebrand. This session will guide you through the key top five strategies to keep in mind when rebranding your brewery. More importantly, we'll explore the tangible benefits and real results a successful rebrand can deliver. Learn how to not just refresh your image, but how to resonate with beer lovers in a way that sustains and grows your business. Don't miss the chance to transform your brewery from just another name in the market to a standout brand. There are few certainties in life: birth, death, taxes, and The Brand Weaver (Tim) overthinking his bio until it almost implodes. Yet, here's a bio! Born in a lab under the watchful eyes of mad scientists (think wild grey hair and maniacal laughs), The Brand Weaver was an accidental result of an experiment gone slightly awry. Instead of better buttering toast, they created a branding guru. Emerging from his test tube amidst a dazzling explosion, The Brand Weaver was destined to help businesses dominate their markets. With over 15 years of experience and a client list featuring big hitters like DC Comics, Warner Brothers, and Kamado Joe, he's mastered the art of captivating audiences and crafting standout brands—think a Cannibal Corpse fan at a Harry Styles gig!
