Asians who grew up in the West, or as a minority, love it when we see people who look like us in the media. What's not to celebrate, right? They're representing us on a big platform! BUT, what happens if those who are supposed to represent us, do not? Worse, what happens when the person who’s supposed to represent us stands up for a cause that goes against our values? How much value/weight should we put on movies, music, pop culture in general? Tune in for our takes on Disney's adaptation of Mulan.

Decisions decisions, we all gotta make 'em! How much do you consult/rely completely on your friends for decisions? This week we cover interpersonal, financial, and social decisions and how easy it is for each of us to be pushed over in these situations.
