Be More Woke ft. Michael Lam & Michael Truong from Respect the Mic podcast

In today's episode we had Michael Lam and Michael Truong - the two hosts from Respect the Mic who I regard as one of the OGs in the British Asian podcasting space. We talk about being mistaken for another type of Asian, assimilating to white culture, whitewashing, wearing the same outfits as couples, and how important media representation is for ESEA folks. These two were so lovely and easy to chat to, make sure you give ‘em a follow and listen to their podcast!!
