This week is our Pride Special and joining us is our US-born, Saigon-based homie, queer comic Kelso Dowing.

Along with our diverse panel, we chat about Kelso’s journey of self-discovery, moving from DC to Vietnam, zig-zagging between Hanoi and Saigon. Even more so, we talk all things LGBT in Vietnam like changing perceptions, Vietnamese slangs for queer people among other things.

All included in a fun and fabulous episode!
