In this episode, we are joined by Cathy Erway, published food author, and podcaster, as we discuss the mixed Asian American experience. We unpack challenging topics such as being "white-passing" to sharing how food is closely linked with heritage. Listen to hear more about Cathy's Asian American story.

We catch up with our longtime friend Cathy Erway, journalist, author and host of the Heritage Radio Network show Eat Your Words. The coronavirus pandemic has meant all of us quarantining at home for safety’s sake, and the result is not being able to frequent our favorite restaurants, delicatessens, food carts and diners. Cathy has deep experience when it comes to being a resourceful, budget-conscious home cook, which she has chronicled via her blog, Not Eating Out in New York, and book, The Art of Eating In: How I Learned to Stop Spending and Love the Stove. She provides us with insights into making the most of shopping for and preparing meals on our own. We then head back to 2010 to revisit an in-studio performance from hip-hop artist Pigeon John. His newest album, Gotta a Good Feelin’, is set to drop and is available for pre-order now.
