You Doo?Sensi-titties (with Jackie Tien) | YOU DOO? #14We laughed. We cried. We questioned all our life choices. Now it all comes down to this... the final episode (of Season 1). We’re going out with a bang featuring the iconic Jackie Tien — a chaotic “good” queen and multi-talented force of nature. She’s an LA-based actress, social media manager and all-around storytelling sorceress. We discuss the trials and tribulations of navigating Hollywood as a Vietnamese American and the legacy she's building in filmmaking. We dive into a reflection of our biggest lessons since starting You Doo? and our own personal evolutions over the past season.

Pride isn’t just a celebration. It’s protest. It’s presence. It’s power. In this episode, we sit down with Will Chen, a gay Asian man whose story cuts across borders and barriers. From silence to survival. We unpack the deep-rooted stigma around queerness in parts of Asia, the emotional toll of living in the shadows, and the complexities of dating and identity in Western queer spaces. Why are Asian men still overlooked or exoticized — even in communities that claim to be inclusi...2025-06-2558 minYou Doo?Fairy Gay Mother (with Dalane Nash) | YOU DOO? #11This month, we're honoring Pride—not just the parades and rainbows, but the people and progress behind them.

2025-06-111h 02You Doo?30 Is...Crying At The Gym | YOU DOO? #10Inspired by Vogue’s iconic 73 Questions, we sat down with birthday boy Vince for 30 questions to celebrate 30 years. But it’s more than a Q&A—it’s a deep dive into growing up, nostalgia, and what “thriving at 30” really means. From the lessons we never expected to the power of staying connected to our inner child, we’re unpacking the truth behind adulthood with a nod to 13 Going on 30. Is having it all figured out just a myth? Let’s find out.

Our moms carried so much with quiet strength — acts of love, sacrifice, and resilience we only now truly recognize. In this special episode, we sit down in person for the very first time with none other than Mathew's mom— to talk motherhood, identity, cultural shifts, and everything in between. This one’s for every mother who’s ever built a home in a place that didn’t yet feel like one.

We talk about what it means to be Asian American in Hollywood, the importance of telling authentic stories, and how he uses his platform to amplify marginalized voices — especially in support of the LGBTQIA+ community. Paul doesn’t just talk the talk — he shows up, he listens, he challenges, and he leads with empathy.
