#115 - Love & Dating In the Time of COVID with Julie & Yue (Dateable Podcast)
Well these past three months have been a blast, right guys? Quarantined, isolated, stressed, & socially distanced...it's the perfect time to find love & experience romance! Seriously though, all of us are learning to connect & relate to one another in new ways that could truly redefine all our relationships moving forward. And funnily enough, there could be some interesting pros to the dating & relationship scene as a result of Coronavirus. To discuss the many ways this pandemic has impacted our interactions with potential SO's, temporary distractions, existing long-term partners, & ourselves, Minji sits down with Dateable Podcast co-hosts Julie Krafchick & Yue Xu. With their extensive backgrounds unpacking everything from first dates to fetishes on their channel, Julie & Yue are no strangers to navigating the nitty gritty of sex & dating with their guests. The three of them share their own COVID experiences & perspectives on dating apps, virtual dates, reconnecting with exes, coping with current relationships & projections of the TBD future of dating culture.

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR
"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting. New episodes premiere every Thursday.
