In today's episode I was joined by Mai-Anh and Charley who make up 2/6 of our besea.n group. We talk about Asian babies being born with blue bum (ask your parents if you had a blue bum!) - it’s actually called Mongolian Spot, our different approaches to activism and mental health as an activist, fluidity in our identities, we then have a healthy debate over Rice or Noodles, I start tearing up over what Mai-Anh said about the voice note I sent her, being told you look like Gok Wan lol, Asian fetishisation and a microwavable rice thing!!
