Heads up, podcast listeners and pop culture fanatics! They Call Us Bruce, the podcast I co-host with Jeff Yang, is doing an entire day of live recordings highlighting Asian American creators and content in pop culture, for an event we're calling Asian American Culture Con (AACC), happening as part of PMX: Pacific Media Expo, America's first major trade show dedicated to Asian-Pacific popular culture and entertainment media.
AACC sessions will include panels focusing on Asian American talent from television, film, animation, comedy, science fiction and more, moderated by me and Jeff, to be recorded and released for the podcast.
It's happening Sunday, October 28 at the Glendale Hilton in Glendale, California.
The growing list of participants includes Jake Choi (ABC's Single Parents), Keiko Agena (Hulu's The First), Daniel Chong (Cartoon Network's We Bare Bears), Vic Cook (Netflix's Stretch Armstrong), Will Choi (Asian AF), Parry Shen (Better Luck Tomorrow), Lynn Chen (Saving Face), Wesley Chu (The Lives of Tao) and a roundtable with voice actors behind Cartoon Network's Steven Universe: Shelby Rabara ("Peridot"), Michaela Dietz ("Amethyst"), Jennifer Paz ("Lapis Lazuli") and Grace Rolek ("Connie")!
All panels are free with with a PMX registration (full weekend or Sunday only). The event is still coming together, with more special guests being added as we speak. For further updates, follow the AACC Facebook event or They Call Us Bruce on Facebook and Twitter.
