For Asian Heritage Month the Vong Show directed FRESH RICE web series is elevating new Asian comedic voices with some envigorating humor. The first episode, taped in Toronto, features comedian ANNA LUO. The self-described “drink-slinging, frisbee-throwing, foul-mouthed attention wh*re” jokes about her past and her very unique plans for the future. These include employing some cost saving initiatives should the parents die simultaneously, recounting how one ends up as an Anna with TWO n’s, the downside of that name, the path that lead to waiting tables for a decade, a very curious AND stereotypical run-in with the law, and what happens when grandma consumes an edible PRE recreational use laws. Enjoy!
Mentions: Don’t miss the next episode premiere May 13th with Anto Chan! More hilarity at the RICE: Asian Comedy Showcase. All episodes will be released as YouTube Premieres including Watch Party and Live Q&A with the featured comedians.
