For our 2nd gathering of the Good Pop Culture Club, we discuss Alan Yang's new film Tigertail now available on Netflix. Tzi Ma stars as Grover, an immigrant from Taiwan loosely based on Alan's real father. It's a story about the immigrant struggle, regret, lonliness, and a reminder that our parents had real lives before having us.

Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin

Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
