In this episode, we briefly touch on the tense situation unfolding in L.A., sharing our hopes for peace and safety for everyone involved—civilians, law enforcement, and troops alike—without diving into politics. Then we shift into a heartfelt and humorous conversation about giving guidance to young legal immigrants, often referred to in our community as "FOBs" (Fresh Off the Boat). We share the advice we’d give if we met a young islander fresh off the plane—how to survive, succeed, and stay grounded in their cultural roots while navigating a new world. We also shout out Asuelu for representing the journey of a young fob making moves to better his life. This one's for anyone trying to navigate new spaces while holding on to where they came from.
