In Episode 14 Mazy Yap joins us to talk about Stephen Chow's Shaolin Soccer. Mazy helps us understand what it was like growing up with Stephen Chow's comedies constantly on TV in Hong Kong (10:00) and helps us break down his unique style of absurd, "nonsense comedy" called Mo Lei Tau (13:45) Later, we discuss how Mazy experienced balancing her Hong Kong past with her more recent Asian American identity (24:00) before we debate why Stephen Chow was never fully embraced by America and changed his style for the mainland Chinese audience. (26:45)
