Two gaysians take a deep dive into their bad life decisions and offer an unapologetic view into everything queer and Asian. Hosted by non-celebrities Lee and Nuri. Follow us on Instagram @whywontyouloveyourself!
Can you believe the pod turned five this year? Even wilder: we’re still here: still rambling. still flopping. you can basically call us the Katy Perry of podcasts: unreliable, occasionally camp, and somehow keep coming back when no one asked. Just kidding... but also not really.
In this episode, we finally catch up after our trip to Hawaii! who had a steamy club encounter? who insisted on being naked the entire time? And which local recs actually lived up to the hype?
We also get into:
The latest gaysian TikTok drama (yes, again)
What Lee’s friend did to get “cancelled”
How Nuri’s been feeling himself lately (a gym era is upon us)
And how pretty privilege shapes and sometimes breaks relationships
Plus: Lee shares a few chaotic club stories from LA and Vietnam, because of course he does.
Thanks for sticking around through our flaky, feral little podcast journey. We make no promises, but we are trying to show up for ourselves. and if you're still here, we love you for it 🥺👉👈

Why Won't You Love Shun? on Netflix's The Boyfriend
Dear viewers, we were truly unable to fully come to terms with our opinions on Sh*n from Netflix's new sensational gay Asian dating show, The Boyfriend. This could potentially be our last episode... Tensions rise as we try to list off our rankings of the members... Who's Lee's #1?! Why does everyone love Kazuto? Was Nuri right about what might potentially happen in the last two episodes?! (At the time of recording, it was not out yet... and yes, he was.)
Thanks for tuning and listening to our amazing cultural commentary on the show that's sweeping over Gaysia right now! We'll be back with some regularly scheduled (or irregularly??) program soon! Maybe... with someone who everyone has 💦 to?! Is it time for the O*lyF*ns episode?!

LOVE Hierarchies and Baby Gays
We're working late 'cause we're podcasters (four times a year). 🎶
Welcome back to our pod! Hopefully, everyone tuned in to our special guest appearance on @literallygaysians during our mid-season break. 😛 Keep your eyes peeled in the future for potentially more cross-over episodes, but with hopefully less ageist jokes and discourse....
We would hate to get cancelled on someone else's podcast (because then it wouldn't be ours that goes viral), so we double down and talk a bit more about everyone's favourite topic: HIERARCHIES. LOVE hierarchies. Hierarchies are our FAVOURITE.
Speaking of EDC as well, it was such a fun time getting to meet some of the listeners of the pod and it was also there where we got our inspiration for another topic of discussion: baby gays?! What does Lee think about these fggt fetuses? Do they even actually exist within the community in the context of what Nuri defines them as? And most importantly, LOVE baby gays.
Thank you all so much for the continued support! It always means a lot to us, knowing that our voices are amplified within this community. Whether that's a good thing or not, tbd. But one thing we know for sure... LOVE podcasting.
