Throwback Feed Drop - Fresh Creatives #7: Merit
Well, the life of a professional Asian American is never easy, and this is especially true in May. Because of several professional Asian obligations overlapping (as well as Jess' birthday week which is a holiday in itself), we've decided to take the week off to gather ourselves. In place of a regular episode, Marvin dug into the way back machine to bring you another throwback from the Fresh Creatives podcast, this time it's an episode we recorded live at the LA Asian Film Festival during Heritage Month 2017 and featuring one of the first times Jess and Marvin podcasted together, along with a very special guest.
Please enjoy and tune back next week for a new episode of Good Pop!

Mentioned in this episode:
Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin
Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
