Elizabeth Ito is a director, writer, storyboard artist, and recent Peabody Award recipient for her show City of Ghosts! We discussed what the writers rooms look like for our favorite animated series (like Adventure Time!), having your own award-winning Netflix show (but also not having it renewed :\), and what we could all learn from children. Also, the bane of everyone’s existence – industry parties. Follow Elizabeth Ito at @ottersnaps on Instagram and Twitter and subscribe for more bonus content at patreon.com/FeelingAsian!

We're All In Drag (feat. ALOK, Artist)

ALOK is a comedian, poet, author, and this week’s amazing guest who many of you have asked us to have on the show! We talk to them about using comedy as an instrument for social good, embracing our sense of play as adults, and the hypocrisy of gender constructs in society. Thank you Alok for the reminder to feel radicalized in the midst of devastating news rather than despair <3 Follow them at @alokvmenon and subscribe to our Patreon for more bonus content!
