277. Greg Rucka on Batman: Caped Crusader, social issues and cyber attacks

It’s another episode of The Mimi and Greg Show! In this episode, we go a little dark as the world around us is entrenched in so much controversy.

Greg expresses his thoughts on Russia and Ukraine, climate change, cyber-attacks, and the difficulties the LGBTQ+ community is facing right now. (especially in Florida)

276. Albert Tam on life in the United States Secret Service

It’s not every day you get the chance to speak with a United States Secret Service agent. Albert Tam recently retired from his twenty-five-year law enforcement career as the Supervisory Special Agent for the Secret Service’s Office of Intergovernmental and Legislative Affairs.

275. Brett Jones on education, quotes and writing

I love welcoming back awesome recurring guests like SFG Chief Brett Jones. As usual, our conversation covers a lot of different topics. We discuss everything from AI to writer’s block.

Brett is currently in the process of writing a book and shares where he finds inspiration and motivation. It wouldn’t be a podcast episode without discussing tv shows and in this episode, we dissect one of our favorites, Battlestar Galactica.

274. Johnny Yang shares how he became a stunt performer

Hi everyone! In this episode, Johnny Yang shares his experiences as a Hollywood stunt performer and coordinator. Johnny is another member of the wonderful Warrior HBOMAX tv series family. We had a great time talking about

his work with friend and stunt coordinator Brett Chan and being a part of the Hitz International team.

May Lee is an award-winning broadcast journalist, host of “The May Lee Show,” adjunct professor at USC, and founder of Lotus Media House who has been both a US-based and international anchor, host, correspondent, and producer.

It was a pleasure to speak to May as a fellow podcaster and AAPI activist. May has been very outspoken about the rise of anti-Asian hate crimes since the start of the pandemic and spotlighted many of the victims of these horrible events.

272. Kelly Sue DeConnick on Wonder Woman Historia, Greek tragedy and Tae Kwan Do

My idea of a lovely afternoon involves talking with Kelly Sue DeConnick! She is the acclaimed comic book writer with works that include: BITCH PLANET, PRETTY DEADLY, AQUAMAN, CAPTAIN MARVEL & her newest release Wonder Woman Historia.

I enjoyed getting to know Kelly Sue in our first episode where we discussed her writing origins and her work on Captain Marvel.

271. Dr. Mark Cheng on the Olympics and Olympic Athletes

I love the Olympics. I enjoy marveling at the athletes and cheering them on. In a world where there is so much negativity and frustration, the Olympics usually provide a moment of comfort and joy.

Unfortunately, I have been frustrated with the Russian Olympic Committee and the controversy surrounding figure skater Kamila Valieva. When I heard reports of her failing her drug test, I was frustrated. I’m not sure what the result of the competition will be by the time this is released, but as of the day this was recorded, she has been allowed to skate and is currently in the lead after the short program.

270. Greg Rucka on podcasting, comic book publishing and RPG

Greg Rucka on podcasting, comic book publishing and RPG

It’s another episode of The Mimi and Greg Show! At this point, do we even need an introduction? We discuss everything from Lunar New Year to Patreon and podcasting.

269. jason chu on hip hop and activism

Chinese American rapper jason chu is known for his high-energy live performances that blend introspective lyricism with crowd-moving passion. On a mission to “speak hope and healing in a broken world”, his songs and videos tell stories of youth, family, and history.

It was fascinating to learn how he blends his love for hip hop with activism. It was also inspiring to hear about his work with the community in organizations like Hate is a Virus and the Japanese American National Museum.

268. A Lunar New Year Hodgepodge

Celebrate the Year of the Tiger with us on our hodgepodge Lunar New Year episode. Oscar and I discuss Lunar New Year and our Wah Lum traditions. We also discuss how we are evolving as humans, covid19, drunk driving, philosophy, and resolutions.

In this episode, I speak with the team behind the Image Comics’ adventure series COMPASS comic!
