Did You Eat Yet?

著者: Le Nguyen
  • サマリー

  • A podcast for Asians and Asian Americans in America. Did you eat yet is synonymous with love and care. Growing up, my parents have always shown love and care to me by asking me that question and no matter if we were mad/sad/irritated at each other, it always comes back with making sure that I was not hungry. Food brings us all together universally and specifically in Asian culture. Quite literally we all come together but at a table and we share something that is crafted with time and effort with love and care. Even in our food we have a sense of together-ness when spices/flavors are incorporated in the food itself. That together-ness is important in a family because much like how amazing food can taste when you add in flavor, having a good bond with family/loved ones can help with having a healthier relationship with your parents and also yourself. There are lots of struggles as Asians living in America: the identity crisis of if you’re really an American in the eyes of an American to if you’re an Asian according to other Asians; balancing between your roots vs western culture; the challenges of embracing your culture(when we were younger), etc. While maneuvering through all of these hurdles, there’s also a challenge with our immigrant parents: the language barriers, the confliction of living life, etc. For some of us it might even feel like we’ve been doing this on our own as our immigrant parent(s) might not have spoken English so you had to do everything by yourself. Or you might be the one that is just coming over to America and are also figuring shit out yourself alone. It seems like sometimes no matter how many friends/people are around you that say they have your back, it can still feel isolating because the struggles that you faced might not resonate with anyone around you. In this podcast for season 1 we have food related title episodes that fit the theme of an issue that we all might’ve faced growing up. Throughout the series we will talk about the trauma, emotions that we felt, and the reflection of where we are with that situation today. We will start off with very heavy and deep topics but gradually get to lighter topics to mimic and reflect what could feel like real time emotions as you relive our childhood. As each episode becomes lighter, we will juxtapose the harsh things we might’ve felt and twist that to be more in understanding of why we think things happen the way they did. Nobody is perfect but when you’re family, we want to make sure that at the end of the day, you’re not going to bed hungry. So… did you eat yet?

エピソード
  • Finishing your bowl
    2024/11/16

    Finishing your bowl is a metaphor on "is your work done yet?" The often self inflicted question that you ask causing you to be aware about your efforts towards something. In this episode I am accompanied by a great friend who helps guide me to being more confident in my actions. All while listening to her story and how she is where she's at today. Our thoughts and insecurities are driven within ourselves but that also means that we can give ourselves the validation we need to move forward/ to seek within. In this episode my friend Choney explains that we must forgive as that is the first step for your healing journey. Although we face trails and tribulations in our lives, we at the end of the day want you to not sleep on an empty stomach so... did you eat yet?

  • Digestion
    2024/11/02

    Digestion is all about taking the time to take in what you are given and in this episode I talk about the challenges that I was faced at a young age. Being told to basically know anything and everything is unrealistic but how do I cope with that today? This episode is a good seg-way to the next one which is about second guessing. Although we face trails and tribulations in our lives, we at the end of the day want you to not sleep on an empty stomach so... did you eat yet?

  • Some Soup
    2024/10/15

    Soup is a comforting dish that is warm most times and nourishing. In this episode I talk about how I felt on edge and the moments in life that have translated to how I am today. The parenting of making your child be fearful is a very effective way to have a child understand concepts but what else really comes out of it? It's important that young kids know that they are comforted and supported as they are so impressionable about what parents give them. Although we face trails and tribulations in our lives, we at the end of the day want you to not sleep on an empty stomach so... did you eat yet?
