Podcast: Sam Yoon, Candidate for Mayor of Boston
Sam Yoon and Family
Today I had a podcast with Sam Yoon, Candidate for Mayor of Boston. Intern Sagar Sane, who made all the arrangements for the podcast and who is helping with internet publicity, was also present. The podcast is 46 minutes and 13 seconds long. For those who are following my ridiculous ongoing battle to get GarageBand ’08 to import large files directly to mp3, this time I WON, and the podcast is a sleek and slim 21.2 megs. Download it here, or listen to it here:

In this podcast, we discussed Jimmy’s career, his previous life as an html coder, his interest in comics, his involvement with The Minority Militant’s website and Project X, and his goals for the future as an Asian American writer.
Podcast: Interracial Relationships and the Gender Divide, Asian American Female Perspective
C-Bruhs (BicoastalBitchin), Eva (Blake and Micah podcast), and Sylvie (Antisocial Ladder) recorded an all-female podcast yesterday. It’s the third in an ongoing series about Asian American Interracial Relationships and the Gender Divide that we started last year on the first part and continued a few weeks ago with URB4N on the second part. This third one runs for just over an hour. Download it here (55 megabytes fat–not phat–since, once again, I ran into GarageBand problems), or listen to it here:

Podcast: URB4N talks about Interracial Relationships
After our first attempt at discussing IR via podcast, we finally brought back URB4N! In this podcast, URB4N, a 29 year old Asian American alpha male investment banker from NYC who posts on 8Asians, Yellowworld, and the 44s, discusses the interracial dating disparity among Asian Americans, and he shares his thoughts about how it affects society, where the trend is heading, and what Asian men need to do.
