Well, the life of a professional Asian American is never easy, and this is especially true in May. Because of several professional Asian obligations overlapping (as well as Jess' birthday week which is a holiday in itself), we've decided to take the week off to gather ourselves. In place of a regular episode, Marvin dug into the way back machine to bring you another throwback from the Fresh Creatives podcast, this time it's an episode we recorded live at the LA Asian Film Festival during Heritage Month 2017 and featuring one of the first times Jess and Marvin podcasted together, along with a very special guest.

Please enjoy and tune back next week for a new episode of Good Pop!

Live from the 2017 Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival, Marvin is joined by special guests Jess Ju, Director of Programs & Ops at CAPE, and Andrew Ahn, award winning director of Spa Night for a special live episode of Fresh Creatives. Together, our creative dream team develops "Merit," an thrilling heist story filled with brave girl scouts, shady tech bros, and Ja Rule.

Don't miss an all AAPI production of HENRY VI: A Trilogy in Two Parts at The Public in NYC

NAATCO returns to The Public with their production of Shakespeare's trilogy, HENRY VI: A TRILOGY IN TWO PARTS, adapted and directed by Stephen Brown-Fried. Condensed into two parts and performed in rep, experience this saga of a nation spinning wildly out of control. Part 1: Foreign Wars kicks off with the funeral of King Henry V, leaving his infant son on the throne and sending the country into decades of spiraling chaos both abroad and at home. Part 2: Civil Strife picks up nearly 30 years later, as nascent domestic feuds rapidly metastasize into the full-blown civil war known as the War of the Roses.
