EP0: Intro - So...who are the Pandas?

In our first episode, we embark on a thoughtful exploration of what it means to be Asian American, viewed through the distinct lenses of two "pandas"—one who grew up in the heart of China and the other who was raised in the West. Together, we unravel the differences and similarities in our experiences, identities, and the ways we navigate the world. 

As we share our stories, we delve into deep, thought-provoking questions—pondering the nature of identity, the meaning of happiness, and the search for truth in a world that often feels contradictory. How do our unique backgrounds influence our views? What does it mean to live between two worlds? And how do we find our place in a society that often tries to define us before we can define ourselves? 

In Pondering Pandas, we don't just discuss our differences; we ponder them, seeking to understand the broader human experience. Whether you’re navigating your own cultural journey or just curious about the world around you, this episode is an invitation to think deeply, question freely, and join us in our endless curiosity.
