Episode 227: "Joy Ride" Is Unapologetically Raunchy & the First of Its Kind - ft. Sherry Cola

We had the amazing opportunity to watch “Joy Ride” at South by Southwest and attend the premiere in LA. Both times the movie had us laughing the entire time, but also tearing up at the underlying story of identity and female friendships. Joy Ride is the first of its kind – a film where Asian women get to be raunchy, funny, and imperfect on the big screen.  It is an honor to have Sherry Cola (aka Lolo in Joy Ride) join us on the podcast today. She’s a stand up comedian and actress with such a magnetic energy and infectious laughter. Sherry shares what it was like to grow up as a fish out of water, and how special it felt to make this movie. Joy Ride is in theaters July 7, 2023! __________________________________________ Hosts: Melody Cheng, Janet Wang, Helen Wu Contributing Editor: Haemee Kang Editor: Michelle Hsieh __________________________________________ P A R T N E R S • ZocDoc: Download the ZocDoc app for FREE at ZocDoc.com/ABG • Issuu: Sign up for FREE or get 50% off a premium account with code ASIANBOSSGIRL at issuu.com/podcast • Open Studio: Get 30 days free at withopen.com/ABG • Pampers: For trusted protection, trust Pampers, the #1 pediatrician recommended brand. • Stitch Fix: Get 25% off your purchase at stitchfix.com/ABG __________________________________________ C O N N E C T W I T H U S • Subscribe and Follow us @asianbossgirl on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/Amazon Music/YouTube/Instagram/Twitter/Facebook • Listener Survey: Let us know your thoughts on the podcast here • Shoutouts: Give a shoutout on the podcast here • Email: [email protected] __________________________________________ S U P P O R T U S • Merch: asianbossgirl.myshopify.com • Donate: anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/support • More about us at asianbossgirl.com Learn more about your ad choices.
