The Bull and the Badger

In a Confucian-influenced Asian Am culture, there’s not much discussion of sisters, so we asked Anna Akana to bring all the facts and all the feels. In this podcast she candidly details how her younger sister’s suicide became the before and after moment for her identity as a sister and her transition into adulthood. And as the big sister to a generation of kids who increasingly turn to the internet for advice, we’re glad she stands as a shining beacon of vulnerability, courage, and introspection. Anna also breaks down her approaches to stand-up, YouTube content creation, and her newest book. It’s basically, the mother –or sister??– of all podcasts, because we ran that gamut.
