As we all continue to adjust to the new normal, there's one part that definitely deserves some light: dating. To start an ongoing investigation of how people are connecting with others while in quarantine & social distancing (because FOA listeners are being responsible, right? RIGHT???), Minji chats with former college counselor Kevin Nguyen. Kevin is a higher education professional at a liberal arts college who's currently working on his Ph.D. in Higher Education. And if that wasn't enough on his plate, he's also been conducting a ton of life research navigating the dating scene pre- & post-COVID lockdown. Together they unpack his journey of learning about who he is, how to cultivate respect & the value of finding a quality connection in the sea of potential prospects.

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.
