Being an Asian American creative during the pandemic

Hi everyone, happy holidays and welcome back to another episode of the Loud Slurp podcast!

For this episode, we have special guest Amy Zhang, a writer, editor, educator, and former segment producer for the popular Netflix series Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj. In a wide-ranging conversation, Amy shares with us her experience pitching and co-producing viral episodes of the Patriot Act including Don’t Ignore the Asian Vote in 2020 and Censorship in China. She reflected on writing an Op-Ed about becoming an American citizen in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic for The New York Times and another essay on what it means to be American in a tumultuous year for The Atlantic.

Last but not least, don't forget to subscribe to Amy and her cousin's YouTube channel Learn with the Cousins where you will have the most fun learning about American slang and culture.
