just another rant #21: Why are young people being so indifferent to social movements?
In this episode, we talk about the case of young people in Vietnam in particular, it is of course not the case for every group of people, community, country,... Why are a vast majority of us so ill informed and simply don't care about racism even though it's directly and indirectly affecting us? Is it because of the culture, or education, or the media, or... all of them and more?

For those who prefer video format, here are some Youtubers I subscribe to and recommend, who also make informative, educational video:

This episode is not just about young people in Vietnam not caring about racism, so many social issues are being neglected. Always remember that we have so much to learn and there's always room for change and improvement, and it begins with us educating ourselves!

just another rant #23: feeling not Vietnamese enough?
In this episode we talk about how we sometimes feel distant from Vietnamese culture, especially pop culture. I don't know if this has happened to any of you guys but oftentimes, I'm the person in my group of friends who don't know anything about the new trends, the new slangs, what's new on the news,... Vietnamese pop culture in general. Since we literally complain about anything that passes through our mind, let's talk about this today.
