😭😭😭 it's so sad that our 100th ep begins w a sad story for Asian people Btw hope all of us staying safe, and please keep doing the pod, it brings me so much happiness every week 😘 tysm
Poor Nigel, the fear of being attacked. I am not Asian, but I'm often mistaken for being. I married Asian, have Asian in-laws, have 1/2 Asian kids (adults now) I fear for all of their safety when they are out. This new hatred for the community is just ridiculous and sad.😠😢
Hi Evelyn, Nigel. Thanks for your message support of the Asian community and the “asianess” experience. Also condolences and love to the families in America, Atlanta racial hate crime as well as all those around the world.
"Indonesian vegetarian food doesn't look good." ----- Ouch, hurts my Indonesian pride right in the kokoro 😥 But I get it, eating various kinds of food does bring you more joy in life! And no food allergy 😁 Not a vegan myself but I grew up with lots of yummy vegetarian foods in Indonesia + other tasty meat-based Indonesian cuisines ofc. Rendang, nasi padang & tempe goreng sambal ftw!
What a lovely episode. Starts with a seriously important message about cultural unity and a cute series of reflections of the last 100 episodes. You’ve both been awesome to lighten my Tuesdays through the pandemic and the constant working from home grind. Thank you!
12:30-12:50 I feel Evelyn so much. I use to be embarrassed to be Mien because no one knew what that is. Now that I’m older and much more successful than my bullies, I have a lot confidence. I learned that their stupid words meant nothing and I’m proud to be an Asian American
Lol, name dropping Foucault and Nigel’s bookshelf aspirations sounds a lot like my bookshelf. Pro tip - buying second hand books makes it look like you’ve read them yourself 🤣 😆.
I smiled through this whole episode! God I wish I found this podcast sooner, actually the only one I listen to lol. But yeah, I love it, I love hearing about your lives, about what happened to you during the week, about your opinions and thoughts about specific topics, of course all the jokes and everything honestly. I’m not Asian and I don’t live in Europe but I like discussions, debates, comedy, listen to people talk, get to know about other’s culture/traditions/lifestyle so this podcast is really just like hanging with and getting to know these two really nice funny people who share themselves with us and just wow you guys are great thank you so much I know I’m super late with this but I’m listening to the episodes in order so I’m just 2 episodes away from catching up I hope you read RUclips comments lol Love u guys
I'm a long time listener first time commentator love you guys. you guys make me laugh on the weekly and i love it. we are all people at the end of the day and we all put are pants on one foot at a time. Never stop being you.
I am glad that you are each other's support bubble. Greetings from Indonesia! I get happy everytime I come home from work on tuesdays 'cause later I get to listen to you guys :D
Appreciate your message at the beginning. It saddens me how many people are saying they just don't care about the rise of Asian hate when lives are lost and there's now a "slap an asian" challenge going around
Congrats on 100!!!! Thank you so much for doing this show. I've enjoyed all of your episodes (even though I've only discovered you guys in the last 20 or so episodes).
I love this podcast gives me something to look forward to in my day. As for the vegans I completely get what they mean. ( I was vegan for a year. However, vegetarian from birth due to genetic metabolic disorder.) Nigel made me realize that is exactly what vegan restaurants are like. Being pacific islander I don't always have much connection to the Asian community. Especially being "white presenting."
Congratulations on the 100times partnership Nigel N Evelyn. Yes, be proud as an Asian, keep going to inspire Asians who were born in foreign lands, to know more about their own culture. Great shadings and looking forward, as always.
Congratulations on 💯! It’s fun getting to know both of your personalities, and I like watching your friendship grow and strengthen. Most of all: thanks for the laughs each and every week!
Great that you started the pod the way you did as someone who knows what you're talking about but not of asian decent it didn't hit me as deeply as when you shared. So thank you for that.
I am with you on British culture. When I was there, most of my friends were international. The only British friends I am closed too are those who have travelled quite extensively as well.
Thank you for being a voice of how it is to be Asian in a western society. Just as black people cant hide their skin color, Asians can’t hide their Asian looks. Asian family dynamics play such a close and unique role that other cultures may not understand. The Asian society in the west has long been viewed as a weak and silent community that can be easily abused and neglected. I hope that the current movement of bringing light to our abuse will cause acknowledgement and hopefully change things for the better.
I relate to Nigel's struggle with getting friends. I moved to Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2014 and last year we moved to Aalborg, other side of Denmark, to get closer to my fiance's family, but now I have to start from scratch with trying to make friends - again. 😅
Congratulations on your 100th show. Keep up the good work. We both are really upset about the anti-Asian BS that's been happening and people using things like covid or scapegoating in what ever form to justify racism and violence. You guys are beautiful and we love your show. Take good care of each other and let's hope all this horribleness ends soon.
lol, yes, married an asian, one year later, we managed to get our first home, yes, a decent job, etc... lol relationship with parents, well, we're on the other extreme. i would really like to be talked to by you guys lol belated congrats on ep. 100. i'll make it through and catch up!
CONGRATULATIONS on your 100th episode!! Although I am not Asian I enjoy this podcast immensely and have huge respect and love for the Asian communities in the UK, Don't let the minority of assholes here make you feel unwelcome. London is a particularly bad place to live these days too, I managed 3 years before I gave up on it. The one thing I do miss is Seewoo though... I spent ALOT of time there when it was in Greenwich!
I spent my entire asian school life ordering lunch from school and I've never had a classmate who has food allergy. It's actually very shocking to know the number of people who have food allergies (and I am talking about a fair variety of allergies) in the West when I started working in Events.
I found this podcast when Uncle Roger first went viral and the podcast first went on RUclips. I’ve seen how Evelyn’s hair color went from Western to Eastern, and Nigel’s face getting a bit chubbier (but cuter). Hehe! What this podcast has done for me is brought out the milder version of Nigel in me to people I’m comfortable with, minus the vulgarities 😅😂
This tragedy is heartbreaking, as a mother of biracial children it tears my heart ! My children are AsianAmerican @ to have to talk about race crimes is devastating ! We need more love than hate ! Please people stop this 🥺😢😭🤐 ! Stay strong and safe dears , know you are loved and admired 🙏🏼💕❤️
Evelyn, great idea on the emergency contact! It would need to be verified so someone didn’t have ulterior motives, almost like a service where people are background checked and they are on a rolling list of available people who can be your emergency contact. Excuse my run on sentence! - but I like the idea. I’ve thought of something similar. I was alone for years in different cities for my job - (large cities where I didn’t have close friends or family) so I always worried what would happen to me if something bad did happen and who would I call? (Hello from a super hypochondriac too) - I wondered Who would take me home from the hospital. Etc. I’m sure there are plenty of other people thinking and needing the same thing!
Same with dating british guy's😂You won't know if they like you even though you've been dating for a year already!.haha.Congratulations on your 100th episode🍻
I remember my friend brings medicine just to eat seafood (shrimp) My other friend brings medicine to breathe after a binge drinking. Asians work around everything. Have allergy? We bring medicine that is why they made that medicine. So we can enjoy the good things in life
In one of your videos, you said because the workers are Chinese, they were obviously cutting corners when working on the project. I hope everyone will realize the discrimination between Asians groups runs deep. I wish to see you and Nigel discussed is the infighting between Asians. Terms like jungle Asians. And the widely accepted online ridicule and attack on mainland Chinese by HKers, TWnese, Koreans. Or similar ly Chinese online attacking people from HK/TW for political reasons, Or attack on Asians with Chinese origin in Indonesia, Malaysia etc due to their economical and financial success. We should finally wake up and understand we are the same in the eyes of outsiders. They see us as the same when they shoot us, and push our elders to the ground the same way. They don't care about our country of origin. We need to unite.
i think all the tier 1 cities in the world are the same. find so many similarities in beijing. i moved from beijing to a tier2 city, i feel socially more comfortable with ppl around me even with stangers
pleeease dont diss my wittgenstein-fridge magnet, cuz it sums up the metaphysical world view of asian MOMS: "the limits of my [icebox] are the limits of my world"
Despite you guys having filmed this before the tragedy, I love how this episode highlights all the amazing parts of being Asian!
😭😭😭 it's so sad that our 100th ep begins w a sad story for Asian people
Btw hope all of us staying safe, and please keep doing the pod, it brings me so much happiness every week 😘 tysm
Poor Nigel, the fear of being attacked.
I am not Asian, but I'm often mistaken for being.
I married Asian, have Asian in-laws, have 1/2 Asian kids (adults now)
I fear for all of their safety when they are out. This new hatred for the community is just ridiculous and sad.😠😢
Congrats on your 100th episode!!! You guys have become this comforting presence in my life now, I love listening to you every week.

Congratulations for your 100th episode! 🎉🎉🎉

I would love "Strong enough to be kind" in the Live Laugh Love font with a crystal as a fridge magnet. I couldn't buy fast enough!!
Woooooo congratulations 🥳💗!!!!

Nigel back in UK? I see that orange cat in the background.
Yup
Haha woohoo. Grats for the 100th.
"I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, but I'm gonna keep on doing what I'm doing"
"fuck you"
too hilarious 😂
The refuge part was top-notch!
I spent my entire asian school life ordering lunch from school and I've never had a classmate who has food allergy. It's actually very shocking to know the number of people who have food allergies (and I am talking about a fair variety of allergies) in the West when I started working in Events.

YOU TWO ARE FUCKING GREAT! Subbed!

Asians work around everything. Have allergy? We bring medicine that is why they made that medicine. So we can enjoy the good things in life
Not only Asian, agree
Going beyond and deeper beyond race, ethnicity and nationality....economic (money and power)
Proximity
It goes down to the personal core of the perpetrators.
May be a projection of unresolved issue(s) as I am working on
HAPPY 100
Keep going!!
In one of your videos, you said because the workers are Chinese, they were obviously cutting corners when working on the project. I hope everyone will realize the discrimination between Asians groups runs deep.

Agree, these issues run deep. We need to unite before we can fight!
nigel's so true about forced to be around someone. so isolated modern life! haiyaa!
i think all the tier 1 cities in the world are the same. find so many similarities in beijing. i moved from beijing to a tier2 city, i feel socially more comfortable with ppl around me even with stangers
Haha deng. Hope 50000 subs coming soon.

pleeease dont diss my wittgenstein-fridge magnet, cuz it sums up the metaphysical world view of asian MOMS: "the limits of my [icebox] are the limits of my world"
Agree with the British friendship bit. I feel although British people may not be racist, they certainly still care a lot about "class".
People forget that almost all comedy comes from pain.
Evelyn sounds happier...keep it up ;) Did you sprinkle MSG on your duck, Nigel?
