Was she the victim of foul play, an accident, or did she choose to disappear? In this episode of The Vanished, we retrace Diana’s last known movements, strange witness accounts, and the lingering mystery that has never been solved or.. was never meant to be solved.

I’m absolutely delighted to collaborate with Chinatown London for my latest episode where I talk to Lucy, Managing Director of See Woo Group and Emily who runs Cuppacha and Taiyakiya.

Lucy and Emily spoke about their journey of running a business in the heart of London. It was so nice to chat with them and share our experiences of what Chinatown London means to us and discussing how diverse it is with more and more ESEA shops and food stalls/restaurants opening.

For me, Chinatown London brings a lot of memories of when my mum and dad used to take me here when I was at school. Shopping for dried vegetables that mum would put in her soup and buying endless supplies of Chinese bakery. When I first moved to London in 2007, there were times when I missed my family, I would go to Chinatown London for comfort and it’s always been such a joyous place. I have Chinatown London to thank for my entire London experience.
In light of ESEA Heritage Month, Chinatown London have put together a campaign #OurChinatown to explore what Chinatown means to people who have stepped foot in Chinatown London. What’s your greatest memory of Chinatown London? You can message me on Insta or email me chinesechippygirl@gmail.com 📧

S4 Ep1: Food and restaurant writer/editor David Jay Paw 57:42

I chat with David Jay Paw who is a food and restaurant writer/editor. We talk mostly on food. Heading straight in to his role at Resy and collaborating with some amazing people such as Amanda Nguyen and Susie Bubble who have written articles to share their stories on food and restaurant. Speaking of restaurants, we have a conversation on Somsaa and Ivy Asia, how they misrepresented ESEA (East and Southeast Asian) food and the work that David did to call this out. My favourite part of the show is talking about David's dad who is in a band back in the 80's in Burma called The Wild Ones (check them out on YouTube). If you're listening don't forget to share the show with your friends. If you have any Asian stories to share with me or a shout out, please DM me on Instagram and I might read out your message on my next show :) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chinesechippygirl https://www.instagram.com/thedavidjaypaw/ Articles: https://blog.resy.com/2022/03/nem-chua-by-moonlight/ https://blog.resy.com/2021/05/susie-lau-personal-guide-to-londons-chinatown-restaurants/ The Wild Ones: Saw Thein Win https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWNk_IZyQW8 Hosted on Acast.

On this episode, I speak with Ray Roberts who is a Filipino-British Filmmaker & Photographer, based in East London. We get personal on this episode as Ray shares his stories of his upbringing on how he suffered from racism at school. We also lighten up the mood as he tells us his upcoming projects that he is working on - all of which amplifies ESEA (East and Southeast Asian) voices and celebrates ESEA culture.

S3 Ep2: Chinese takeaway/restaurant kids - this one's for you! 1:10:47

I know I always say on all my shows 'this is a very special episode'. But this time, I REALLY mean it! It's special for a few reasons: * It was my first live show with an audience * People paid £14.06 for a ticket (thanks guys) * Proceeds were donated to London Chinese Community Centre and the event raised just over £2K. * Two amazing guests, John Li from Dumpling Shack and food writer and Takeaway book author Angela Hui shared a stage with me. * There were raffle prizes (is it even an event if there's no raffle prizes? Asking for a friend, LOL). Angela, John and I have all been brought up in our parents Chinese takeaway/restaurant and we share stories from behind the counter. It was heartwarming and personally for me, it felt like therapy. If only I knew there were more takeaway kids when I was growing up!! This event is part of ESEAHM (East and Southeast Asian Heritage Month). Thanks to Besean for hosting this for the 2nd year running. A few insta pages to check out!

Hey!! I'm back with a new season. In this episode I speak to my fiancé eWan Smith as we talk about how we met, the adventures that we've had and we probably over share when we talk about the mini break up that we had a few years ago. I also asked him if he has yellow fever (spoiler alert, he doesn't) but it did boost a conversation on how yellow fever is dangerous on ESEA women. You can find both eWan and I are on Instagram: @Chinese Chippy Girl @mui_mui_records Image by Georgina Leung (thank you leng lui). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.…

Hello! In this episode, we speak with Siu Kee . A BBC (British born Chinese) who grew up in Glasgow/Barnsley. Also a fellow takeaway kid! I feel he ticks all the boxes for Asian golden child. Academic, a lawyer and the only son in his family. Sounds good on paper right? But tune in to this episode as we hear from Siu Kee on his identity issues and speaking openly about his sexuality.

S2 Ep1: ESEA representation in kids books with Maisie Chan 53:54

4 years ago53:54

53:54

I'm back from my break of podcasting and my first guest of series 2 is Maisie Chan. Maisie is a BBC (British born Chinese) childrens author. She has recently launched 2 books, Danny Chung does not do maths (or Danny Chung sums it up in the US) and Tiger Warrior. Also, Amy wants a pet which is my daughter's favourite book. Maisie also runs Bubble Tea Writers Network that supports and encourages ESEA writers in the UK. We also talk about a short story called Brian Wong who was never, ever wrong (written by David Walliams and illustrated by Tony Ross) on how the story has used harmful stereotypes to depict the Chinese community. Which is why the ESEA community need better representation to show the real culture and not the negative stereotypes or the model minority myth. Please follow Maisie on https://www.instagram.com/maisiechanwrites or checkout her website https://www.maisiechan.com/ for more info on her books and Bubble Tea Writers Network.

S1 Ep15: Chinese takeaways and Clubhouse 58:38

58:38

In this episode, the legendary takeaway owner from Jade Park joins us for this episode. Jade (or should I say James) went from working in IT to running his own takeaway. He's also the Co-Founder of 'Asians in the UK' on Clubhouse every Monday at 8pm. A room where they have built a community on ESEA people and allies to come together and talk about important topics such as hate crime on Asians. A very honest conversation where I admitted to some mistakes on internalised racism and why I am unlearning and relearning. I also share my thoughts on the mass shootings that have happened in Atlanta, America and why we should be more careful on using the words 'massage parlour'. Please give Jade Park a follow: https://www.instagram.com/jvdepvrk and if you're in Moreton, Wirral, definitely place an order with them. Hosted on Acast.
