#28: Asian Americans in Pop Culture with Dr. Oliver Wang

Culture writer, DJ, sociology professor, and co-host of the album appreciation podcast “Heat Rocks”, Dr. Oliver Wang joins us to share his research on the ways in which Asian Americans participate in different forms of popular culture. Oliver has made it his mission and work to share the stories that have yet to be told--like the story of Filipino American Mobile DJs in the Bay Area or the story behind the travel patterns of the Kogi food trucks. Keep listening to hear some of these untold stories.
