“And from people’s personal experiences with it. I have to admit that I grew up a sheltered suburban kid of immigrant parents. I didn’t realize how “good” I had it until I was in university when I heard people criticize private school kids ask me what it was like to go to one. Now, I wasn’t sure if they meant going to one in general or whether they meant what it was like for an Asian kid to go to one, assuming that they thought the schools were “very white.” That simply wasn’t the case in 1990s Toronto, especially schools with boarding programs. I’m in my 40s and I sometimes STILL get asked. It makes me feel comfortable telling people where I went unless I sense that it’s okay. I also didn’t know until I went away to university that there were Chinese Canadians my age whose families struggled growing up and didn’t have “typical suburban kid” experiences. I thought those were only in period novels I read about earlier immigrants. Keep in mind that I was 18-19 at the time.”

“Feels more like a relatable coming-of-age drama with conflicted characters trying to figure out what it means to be good and to be happy, rather than a dry, traditional interview-style podcast. It’s cool.”

“I just loved this podcast, start to finish, but especially Jonathan’s conversation with Jarvis Cocker and of course Queen for a Day episode. Jonathan brings just the right touch to a sensitive topic, letting the podcast go to deeper and richer places as a result. Heartily recommend!”
