Our first Hollywood hunk on the pod, meet Sam Song Li.
What do you do when your mom tells you, “Name one person who looks like you on screen”?
Sam ignored the odds—and booked a major role on Netflix’s The Brothers Sun.
In this episode, Sam opens up about how he went from goofy skits on TikTok to acting alongside Michelle Yeoh.
He shares the reality of being an Asian-American actor in Hollywood (spoiler: it’s still a box), what it’s like to get recognized for playing the character everyone hated, and how a role that mirrored his real life helped him find peace with his own story.
We talk typecasting, creative dreams, dating red flags, and how making people laugh became his gateway to something much deeper.
This one’s funny, sharp, and will hit you in the feels—especially if you’ve ever been underestimated.
