Working on this show gave me a whole new way to understand what being proud to be Taiwanese-American means. A piece in Taiwanese and Mandarin that unearths history my family only ever hinted at finally gave me the opportunity to show them what I do on their own turf, in their own language. Massive thanks to everyone for your patience, warmth, and collaboration in welcoming me into the fold— it honestly felt like coming home. And a huge huge thanks to Sheng for trusting me with your beautiful show and bringing me on board.

Apollo, a new musical podcast about a prophetic(?) octopus. Coming Soon.
As winter embraces us with its icy chill, the sound of the world’s most cephalopodic violin is here to remind you that Apollo is coming (like the death which haunts all)
for YOU.
Apollo, the musical podcast, traveling from the far reaches of the North American continent, by wintery woeful wind and light of the moon… to sound waves near you.
