Hello and welcome to P̶o̶p̶u̶l̶i̶s̶t̶ ̶T̶i̶p̶s̶ Episode 36 of Diversity Hire.

It has been a tough and trying week and we weren’t sure if we should even do an episode this week. But we’re so happy that our guest, Chris Gayomali, was down to talk with us.

Chris is an articles editor at GQ. Fifty weeks ago, Chris wrote an article for GQ titled “The New Fear for Asian-Americans Going Out in Public.” It’s surreal to think about what has and, sadly, hasn’t changed since March 2020. In today’s episode, we spoke about identity, invisibility, and the interstitial space that Asians occupy in America. We also talked about basketball, Steven Yeun, Filipino food, “menswear”, and shopping tips.

Thanks for listening. Thanks for subscribing. Thanks for being here for us.
