Sorry in advance for some of the hiccups in the audio quality - we tried recording an online call for this week! Thanks for listening and supporting :) When friendship is long distance, it can be hard to be up to date with their lives. Today we catch up with our friend about pillows, East Coast Asians, and how our childhood/siblings affect the number of kids we want.P.S. Rock pillows are a thing!Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

By some chance, we aced our interview and got accepted into an on-campus job in college. We tried to learn as much as we could through our mentors, made our first co-worker friends, and learned to juggle studying (and partying) with 8am shifts. And because of these student jobs, we became much more prepared for our first post-grad jobs!Today we talk about our first job struggles and professional tips we picked up while at Taco Bell, DocuSign, supply chain shipping centers, and even university call centers.Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

Our parents are superheroes. One morning, after long deliberation, they decided they wanted a better life for their families and packed their bags, trading in their comfortable lives for challenging ones. They conquered the difficulty of an unfamiliar language, navigated the brand new culture, and explored countless communities to fit into the new country. They left behind their parents, their loved ones, their closest friends. They are immigrants, and they are our everyday inspirations. Today we dive deep into our parents’ immigration journeys, and discuss our experiences growing up with immigrant parents - from everything to being embarrassed about their broken English, to learning to express love through every way except saying the L word.*NOTES*12:00 Sponsorship, ok Crystal clarified with her mom: a sponsor was needed if you were going to school in the new country and needed a student visa (Crystal's parents were enrolling in Canadian university to get their Canadian master degrees). The sponsor would sign with the intent/proof that they could pay for the education. If the person coming to study in the new country already has enough money/proof that they can pay for the education, then they would not require a sponsor for their student visa.American student visa rules , Canadian student visa rules27:22 Pork Floss51:18 Mission Peak is referring to a 6 mile hike in Fremont, popular for the totem pole and beautiful view at the top.

When you’re growing up, family friend parties are a major part of weekends - especially the huge holiday dinners where everyone brings a special dish, kids are forced to play piano, and parents brag about their kids’ most recent achievements. Family friends are also the people your parents always seem to compare you to, especially that damn John kid who quadruple-majored at Harvard and invented the cure to cancer. Join us today where we talk about family friend dinners, being compared to other kids, and getting drunk at holiday parties.Visit us at eatyourcrust.com for special content.Reach out to us @eatyourcrustpod on insta, twitter, facebook, or email us at eatyourcrustpod@gmail.com !*NOTES*10:00 - Korean Jellyfish salad - Here’s a link to Maangchi’s Jellyfish Salad recipe!Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

Most newly working adults could probably relate - after the fluttering unfamiliarity of your first adult job dissipates, your 9-6 work schedule (how is that even legal anyways?!) with your 2-3 hour commute (which is terrible for your back) leaves you with no energy to do anything else except scroll through social media for 3 hours on your couch until you finally drag yourself to go shower. Trying to fit in all of your errands and housework on the weekends is easy enough, until you realize you need to leave time to hang out with your friends, hit the gym, maintain some hobbies. Is it just us, or does it feel impossible to do ALL of this and be as creative and adventurous as we were in college?Long ass intro aside, we want to let you know that - SAME. We feel you. Today we discuss how we keep our brains fresh and our hearts passionate as modern day working adults. Visit us at eatyourcrust.com for special content.Reach out to us @eatyourcrustpod on insta, twitter, facebook, or email us at eatyourcrustpod@gmail.com !Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod
