351. Imposter Syndrome, Communication and Injuries

Have you ever felt imposter syndrome? We have! Oscar and I discuss the areas in our career and life where it hits us most.

Oscar and I have just returned from Machu Picchu and share some highlights of the trip. Plus, more of Oscar asks me anything where we delve into the philosophy of excellence versus consistency, the Barbie movie, and more!

I always love these conversations with Oscar and for those that tune into YouTube we have now decided to stretch and work on mobility while conversing in case you are interested in watching us online.

349. Spencer Ackerman on Waller vs Wildstorm

Spencer Ackerman is back on the show discussing his comic book debut: Waller vs Wildstorm. As a fan of comics, it was fun to see how Spencer brings his journalism expertise to the comics medium.

Spencer shares his thoughts on the comics creative process and collaboration. It was also fascinating to hear his take on writing his first comic book as a musician. We discuss the pacing of the pages in reference to music and he breaks down the rhythm of the book like drum rudiments. So much fun!

Oscar Asks Sifu Mimi Chan Anything!

It’s the Mimi and Greg Show! I’ve really missed my dear friend and amazing writer. Due to my intense legislative session and its’ aftermath, my schedule has been unpredictable. Throw in time zone challenges and it equals a way overdue chat with Greg.

338. Perry Yung is a Warrior on screen and in real life

Perry Yung is the real deal. He plays Father Jun on the hit show Warrior, but he is also a Warrior in real life. I’m inspired by his activism in the community and I want to be just like Perry when I grow up.
