‘But Where Are You From?’ Podcast

But Where Are You From? is a fun and uplifting podcast by besea.n (Britain’s East and South East Asian Network). We talk about East and South East Asian culture ranging from politics, dating, relationships, food, racism and the experiences of living in Britain as ESEA folks.

The podcast was originally started by Viv Yau (@itsvivyau) back in March 2020, as a result of lockdown and the desire to explore her identity as a British Born Chinese person, and since April 2021 has evolved as part of the besea.n organisation, bringing in our core team members as hosts. Since the launch, we have achieved:

  • 50k+ listens

  • A predominantly UK ESEA audience (62%), and predominant 28-34 age bracket (34%)

  • Guests such as comedian Evelyn Mok, comedian Ken Cheng, MSG Pod (MiMi Aye and Huong Black), Nigel Ng aka Uncle Roger, YouTuber Shu Lin, YouTuber/Creator Kim Richards and actor and writer Daniel York Loh.

We are currently open to podcast sponsorship opportunities from brands and organisations looking to target an ESEA audience in the UK.  If you’d like to request a media pack please email us: hello@besean.co.uk
