Welcome to "I Speak Engrish!" Two old friends reflect back on their escapades abroad and catch up over drinks. Meet Anton, a former (ex-ex-) expat, and Lilly, a backpacker, as they tell their travel stories, share cultural tidbits, inspire you to travel or even encourage you make "that big move", and discuss current events through their Asian American lens.

2 - 13 : Just Another Cinderella Story... but from Uzbekistan with mostly Zachary

Today, we continue our foray into Central Asia with yet another Cinderella story. Huzzah. Except this one is not just a story, but actually a ritual to help women and girls achieve what they want. And... Anton ruined it because he's the one telling it (it's supposed to only be told by women or girls). We also talk about public executions... 'cause Lilly is like that. Zach is clearly not a fan. This story involves toys (not like Toy Story toys, but circumcision/wedding ceremonies). If you know anything about those, let us know by emailing us at ispeakengrishreally@gmail.com. Also let us know what kind of public execution you'd go to. DM us on Instagram at lillytalksalot@ and whatsupanton@. See you next time! We are also continuing our partnership with Ana Luisa this Valentine's season. You can get yourself and your loved ones the perfect gift with up to 40% off.

2 - 12 : Happy Lunar New Year!

Happy Lunar New Year! Today, Zach and Anton listen to Lilly and her dad duke it out to see who tells the same story BETTER (kinda). This story is about bánh chưng and bánh tét, two Vietnamese savory rice cakes. Who created these cakes? How did these simple cakes beat the 17 other exotic dishes in Hell's Kitchen: Vietnam Edition? Tune in to find out! Tell us who you thought told the story better! Email us at ispeakengrish@gmail.com, or DM us on Instagram: @lillytalksalot and @whatsupanton. Until next time!

2 - 11 : Uyghurs and Ogres with Friends

Hey everyone! In the first of two episodes focused on Central Asia (yes, they're Asian too!), Anton takes you to the land of the Uyghurs (also boycott China), where a black ogre (not racist) terrorizes the land by stealing all the young beautiful girls from a nameless city in the Taklamakan Desert. Black Shrek, however, faces a fate that will build his leg muscles for centuries to come, thanks to the wits of a student named Batur. What is said fate? Why is Mufasa in this episode? And what does the fox say? All shall be revealed when you smash that play button! Let us know why you think Shrek is green by emailing us at ispeakengrishreally@gmail.com. Or you can DM us on Instagram at whatsupanton and lillytalksalot. Until next time! We are also continuing our partnership with Ana Luisa this Valentine's season. You can get yourself and your loved ones the perfect gift with up to 40% off.
