Shownotes

On this episode of Good Pop, in honor of APAHM and the recently announced remake, we check out the classic Ang Lee romantic dramedy from 1993 THE WEDDING BANQUET. Does this 31 year old film about generational differences and family expectations hold up today as good pop? And if it does, what does that say about the Asian American films that have come out since?

What's Popping? - Bridgerton, The Idea of You, Mother of the Bride, Frostpunk, Top Chef

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.
