About this listen

This episode we talk with author Kaila Yu, new book Fetishized and her classic Taiwanese comfort food, Lu Rou Fan. We’re a little light on the food this episode but spend lots of time on Kaila’s new book, the fetishization of Asian women, and stories that feel like they’re from 20 years ago but are, unfortunately, still true today.

Plus we talk about Kaila’s experience as an import model, Chinese school, and padding that college application with extracurriculars.

Fetishized is out August 19 and available for pre-order whenever you get your books. It’s a great read—plus a chapter on The Joy Luck Club!
