Episode 77
#77 - Self-Awareness & Dating w/ Slim
We’ve been on a mental & emotional deep diving streak here on First Of All, & this time we’re back on one of our fav topics: DATING. There’s so much from our previous episodes that come into play in this murky, beautiful, maddening world of chemistry & courtship - love, anxiety, stress, self-discovery, the list goes on. Minji invites Steve Lim aka Slim back to FOA to get updates on his dating life since he last sat down to talk about getting into the world of dating apps. If you’ve struggled with ghosting, rejecting & rejection, coming up with first date ideas (or tolerating really bad ones), problematic gender rules & evolving social expectations, all while truly trying to figure yourself out, we are here for you. This definitely ain’t an easy road, but at least we have each other, right?
This week's guest:
- Slim

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.
