Panda Cub Stories
Linda Yi
39 episodes
8 months ago

Hi! I'm Linda - An ABC(ish) writer/illustrator currently based in NYC.


PODCAST WHAT:

This podcast is an extension of the Panda Cub Stories webcomic, where I'm documenting my own journey of (re)learning Chinese language and reconnecting with my family's heritage. Here, I'll be musing on what I've learned about Chinese language, culture, folklore, and/or festivals.


PODCAST WHY:

While I LOVE making the webcomics, there's a lot of content I can't fit into those few panels... so I thought I'd relaunch this podcast to share the extra goodies with you!


PODCAST (LANGUAGE) FORMAT:

I'll be switching back and forth from English to Mandarin (with maybe a bit of Sichuanese thrown in). This new podcast format will be more conversational, and less formal, than the previous episodes! But the content will mostly revolve around Chinese language and culture... stuff I find interesting (and that you may find interesting too!).


P.S. I've been told I have a nice soothing voice, so if you you AREN'T interested in Chinese culture but DO have insomnia, maybe this podcast is also for you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯



P.P.S. Podcast origins:


Panda Cub Stories started as stories told bilingually in Mandarin Chinese and English. Episodes prior to 2020 are mostly stories adapted from, or inspired by, Chinese myths, legends and folklore!

Panda Cub Stories
S1E18 | Pearl (12 of 12)

Welcome to the final part of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story! 


Last time, Hai brought a soul-blossom seed back from the realm of dreams… a seed that can bring Mei back to life – if only Hai can get it to bloom. Day after day Hai tends to the seedling, to no avail… until he discovers the missing link: the plant requires a blood tithe. As Hai sleeps, the soul blossom grows… 


Today, in the 12th and final part of Pearl, we find out how our story ends.

Panda Cub Stories
S1E17 | 珍珠 (十一)

We ended last week’s episode with Hai’s dream – or is it a dream? – leading him to a mysterious, gray colored land. And who was the mysterious figure in black? What could this possibly have to do with saving Mei?  We continue our story today, in Part 11 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story.

Panda Cub Stories
S1E16 | 珍珠 (十)

We ended our last episode with a bit of a cliffhanger – Mei had taken her seventh sister’s advice and gives Hai her 海之心, her sea-heart. We left our story with Mei’s heart literally in Hai’s hands… and Mei a lifeless figure of stone. Is our tale to end in tragedy? We continue our story today, in Part 10 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story!

Last time, Mei had just revealed her identity to Hai – that she was the rose-carp he had once saved, and the youngest daughter of the dragon king. Hai must believe her, of his own accord… in order for Mei to become human and stay on land. What did Hai do? Did he believe? We continue our story today, in Part 9 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story!

Panda Cub Stories
S1E13 | 珍珠 (七)

In our last episode,  We saw a familiar scene… Mei lost in her thoughts – and a shady, skulking Sha who, again, seems to be in the right place at the right time… or is it in the wrong place at the wrong time?  As Mei hurries towards the secret cave where her 7 sisters are waiting, Sha slinks off after her. Will Mei’s secret be discovered?  Today, we find out in Part 7 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story.

In our last episode,  We saw a familiar scene… Mei lost in her thoughts – and a shady, skulking Sha who, again, seems to be in the right place at the right time… or is it in the wrong place at the wrong time?  As Mei hurries towards the secret cave where her 7 sisters are waiting, Sha slinks off after her. Will Mei’s secret be discovered?  Today, we find out in Part 7 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story.

Panda Cub Stories
S1E11 | 珍珠(五)

In our last episode,  the dastardly Sha had captured the rose carp (who weknow is actually Mei, the youngest daughter of the dragon king). Luckily, Hai was able to save the rose carp from harm – having just traded his entire days catch for this odd but friendly fish. Though Hai doesn’t know the rose carp is actually Mei… he does feel a sense of familiarity… he just can’t put his finger on what! 


Now that Hai has rescued the rose carp, what will he do? 


Today, we find out in Part 5 of Pearl – A Chinese Mermaid Story.

Panda Cub Stories
S1E10 | 珍珠(四)

In our last episode,  Mei performed a a bit of magic and transformed from a princess-turned-village-maiden… into a rose colored carp! With a swish of her tail, she headed out to the open sea – d  to meet the quiet young fisherman she’s been watching from afar… So, listener, do you think it’s a  great idea for Mei to go to him in… well “carp”form? He is a fisherman after all! Today, we find out!

Panda Cub Stories

Hi! I'm Linda - An ABC(ish) writer/illustrator currently based in NYC.


PODCAST WHAT:

This podcast is an extension of the Panda Cub Stories webcomic, where I'm documenting my own journey of (re)learning Chinese language and reconnecting with my family's heritage. Here, I'll be musing on what I've learned about Chinese language, culture, folklore, and/or festivals.


PODCAST WHY:

While I LOVE making the webcomics, there's a lot of content I can't fit into those few panels... so I thought I'd relaunch this podcast to share the extra goodies with you!


PODCAST (LANGUAGE) FORMAT:

I'll be switching back and forth from English to Mandarin (with maybe a bit of Sichuanese thrown in). This new podcast format will be more conversational, and less formal, than the previous episodes! But the content will mostly revolve around Chinese language and culture... stuff I find interesting (and that you may find interesting too!).


P.S. I've been told I have a nice soothing voice, so if you you AREN'T interested in Chinese culture but DO have insomnia, maybe this podcast is also for you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯



P.P.S. Podcast origins:


Panda Cub Stories started as stories told bilingually in Mandarin Chinese and English. Episodes prior to 2020 are mostly stories adapted from, or inspired by, Chinese myths, legends and folklore!
