Hosts and life-long best friends Angela Lin and Jesse Lin explore their identities as Asian-Americans through the lens of their first-generation upbringings and how those influences have shaped how they see the world and their place in it. Each episode explores a different topic of identity or common struggle, with many episodes featuring special guests from both the Asian and broader POC communities bringing their unique perspectives, showing us that there's so much more that connects us than divides us.

Taiwanese-American Angela Lin is on a journey to elevate her Mandarin skills with the help of her Mandarin teacher guests. On this show, Angela engages in meaningful conversations using only the Mandarin she knows, while her guests provide live corrections along the way. This practical format allows both Angela and listeners to learn "grown-up" Mandarin and correct common mistakes naturally, offering an approachable way to help American-born Chinese (ABCs), American-born Taiwanese (ABTs), and other advanced Mandarin learners find their voice in Mandarin on the topics they care about.
