Description

“Our original WHY for all of this was so folks could get a better sense of what someone else's experience is like.” “...but we're NOT an Asian podcast - this is an American podcast.”
After TWO HUNDRED episodes, Sharon & Raman reflect on where we’ve been (with you), and where we’re going. We grapple with the heavier questions of why do we even DO this podcast, and why should we keep it going (and if so, how)? It’s a friendly reflection and discussion that’s equal parts realistic and hopeful, and we want you to weigh in. What do you think? Email us himom@modmypod.com. Not only will we send you some stickers (LOL), but YOUR take on our podcast will help us figure out what we want do next

Sharon Lee Thony and Raman Sehgal are two MODERN MINORITIES - Asian-American industry pros "making it" (?) - even though they never became the doctors their parents wanted them to be. Each week, they are joined by folks of all stripes - entrepreneurs, corporates, athletes, reporters, politicians, entertainers, and more - to uncover how our different cultural backgrounds shape how we uniquely experience the world. MODERN MINORITIES is a collection of conversations about work and life through the lens of race and gender. It is a show where we talk about “the thing” that everyone is thinking about, but nobody is actually talking about it. New episodes drop weekly.
