EXECUTIVE PRODUCER SPOTLIFE ASIA ARCHIVE
In 2020 UCLA’s Asian American Studies Center shared that they so treasure what we do that they asked if they could archive each of our episodes in their AASC Library in the near future. And if they’re technically intimidated, take a few minutes to guide them to our webpage or to set them up on iTunes or another podcast platform. Send the link to a specific episode that you think they’d appreciate. Most of all, if you value what we’re doing, we need you to recommend our podcast to anyone and everyone you think would also benefit. Your subscribing will ensure that you’ll never miss an episode. Your listening to these conversations is a vital part of accomplishing this goal. We aspire to enlarge the base of informed and enthralled Asian Americans throughout this country and around the world. Our goal is to use our national and global platform to support a vast array of projects by Asian American culture-makers and culture-shapers–whether famous or not–who are utilizing various avenues and approaches to give substance and shape to the still-emerging and evolving Asian American culture. And when his guest joins him, you’ll get to listen in as he deftly invites them to talk about their pathways, their passions, and their latest pursuits. From the moment Ken launches each week’s episode with his current musings, you’ll feel like you’re sharing a booth with him at a local coffee shop. ASIAN AMERICA: THE KEN FONG PODCAST is a distinctive program that shines a spotlight on the manifold faces and facets of the diverse Asian American community.
