A little bird told me that this week on APN is a particularly special one not just because we have a wholesome shoutout to Xenia's birthday but also a bunch of important group discussions and hot new Asian pop culture news to chat about! We have our team talk through meanings behind their names as well as an early Mother's Day conversation, while also reliving the excitement from the end of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival & new music comebacks coming from PSY and a rumoured one from GOT7. 

Please note that SYN does not have the rights to podcast the music it plays on 90.7FM. That means you'll have listen live on SYN 90.7FM | DAB+ syn.org.au every Tuesday from 8pm to 11pm for all the wonderful tunes.

There seems to be two very specific topics that the APN team can't seem to stop thinking about these last couple of weeks: sports anime and why Haikyuu reigns supreme (allegedly) & the first studio album release to come from South Korean girl group, aespa. So, it only makes sense that we yap all about it on this episode!



(01:46) Mini deep dive into the genre of sports anime 

(22:24) Aespa title tracks (Supernova & Armageddon) thoughts

(32:18) Aespa first full-length album, Armageddon, thoughts

Concerts Galore (28/05/24)

If this seems like we are slightly late to the game when it comes to chatting all about the Asian celebrities who attended this year's Met Gala... you would be right as this week, we are bringing you an episode that was semi-late to the party! 😅 But hopefully you will forgive our poor timing since we also brought some fun local topics revolving around a throwback television series, a more intimate film festival & a crash course into an interesting Chinese food concept. 



(01:53) Met Gala 2024

(23:23) Border Security (and we just mean the Australian TV show)

(33:05) Asian filmmakers at the ReelGood Film Festival 2024

(45:18) Chinese Parenting 101 on Heaty & Cooling foods
