Description

Nuances is an award-nominated audio space where guests from a wide range of Asian ethnic groups, careers, countries, and communities explore our often complicated relationships with our culture(s) and how they shape us. It can be a source of validation, a space for healing, a call to self-reflection, or a good laugh, often all at the same time.
The current 5th season is a limited series exploring wholesome queer stories from premodern Asia, what they can teach us about our cultures, and why they were forgotten in modern times. It features scholars and guest co-hosts from the queer Asian community.
We talk about the careers we’ve pursued: winemaker, writer, actor, musician, politician, activist, brain scientist, care worker, doctor, & so many more.
Our intersectional conversations explore how our experiences affect our views on anti-racism, disability justice, feminism, LGBTQIA+ rights, religion, etc., and how we can create change in our own circles to build solidarity across movements.
Tune in for fun, uplifting, yet thought-provoking conversations with the Asian diaspora at the intersection of career, culture and community.
