After years of working in her parent’s Chinese restaurant with no pay ever since she was a small child, a caller tells me of the difficulties she fears will arise if she goes against her parent’s wishes and pursues her own goals.
Afterwards a caller tells me how he tricked several people by starting a fake bakery, a caller fears his entire identity is centered around working at Microsoft, and a caller starts to see the negative side effects from habitually pulling his hair out.
Plastic plants can be just as nice as real ones. I am a gecko.

Winnie should check out the local community college for design programs. Mine had an amazing 2 year program where i was able to get a job in the industry right after graduating. I think it’s a common misconception that graphic designers can make it without any schooling, as there are a lot of rules and principles to consider if you’re looking to get into professional graphic design.

Mattress Firms 'make' a lot of money 😐😐😐😐😐😐
Winnie can I get you some career counseling? There are ways to provide for your family that don’t involve being unhappy. Just reply here and we can get in touch and go over some ideas and options.
This video made me dizzy at the end there. 💚
As a graphic designer, I highly recommend not pursuing this career.
It's amazing. The first girl doesn't see that her parents were trying to instill an unstoppable work ethic to ensure her success, and her only fear is running out of money if she goes off on her own "because we aren't the most well off" insinuating they'd be paying for her. Pay your own way. You're leaving them. They taught you the value of work, do it.
44:30 Sounds like Imposter Syndrome to me.
“I want to be a graphic designer”
Every delusional girl wants to make money via art. God forbid they see how unrealistic that is. Art should be done as a hobby while you hustle as your main grind. You then find ways make your art better.
The thing is? Bad artists want to go into art right away and that school is going to change that.
Also this girls acting like shes got it so bad? Does she realize theres still people being forced into slavery?
Poor kid.
CBT: pinpointing your exact thoughts, controlling how you emotionally react to those thoughts, then controlling your physical reaction to those emotions. Essentially it will always comprise of these three components — the mental, emotional, and physical. I think referring to it as a mere perspective change is downplaying it a bit.
“You can geck your own wayyyyy
(Geck your own wayyyy)”
I don't think my situation is near as dire as Winnie's, but it is similar in that I'm trapped between living my own life and serving my family. This segment really helped me a lot. The channel is new to me but already hitting deep. Thank you
Winnie, you deserve a life of your own to fulfill your own destiny. No one has agency over your life decisions but you and you deserve to take your power back. You can still go to college out of state and go to a community college and take out less student loans than a big state school. And afford yourself enough loan money to help support yourself while working part time and having roommates. It can be done even if you’re starting from scratch. Work on building your credit and getting a degree so you can pay back your student loans, work your way up in life, and make yourself happy first. If there’s any money left over after you’ve been working a decent job for a few years, then you can think about having healthy boundaries with your family and maybe helping here and there. But only after the boundaries are made clear and you’re in the best position to do so, and only if YOU want to.
Dawg if that was my daughter If be so fuckin proud
I'd buy merch or clothing that revolves around the idea of this fake bakery.
listening to king gizz right now. specifically sketches of Brunswick east. what a coincidence
The muffin guy is just in a silly goofy mood
They shouldnt have come to America thinking they had a freeworker on their hands. They should have accepted the hard existence of being a foreign restaurant owner in America and gave you the opportunity to just be a Asian American child, not a Chinese restaurant worker that happens to live in America.
Idk if it’s bc I’m high, but I LOVE the muffin idea!😂
The people you need to get on that would be legendary is, Duncan Trussel, Theo Von, Tim Dillon & Danny Brown!👏👌🏼
Ultra fat gross dude giving kids advice. This is as bad as cigarette commercials.
This ain't a real gecko. It's a guy with green makeup on in a gecko suit. Source: am familiar with Geckos
Muffin man is peak humanity efficiency in 2022
Winnie's story is really sad, and not to downplay it but it's a dime a dozen in asian culture and toxic af. My ex in college was the same, felt helpless and mind enslaved. It kept her from pursing the things she wanted to do. I'd go to the restaurant in the evening to help close so she could leave earlier. Breaks my heart she is still working there 15 years later
Winnie, just so you know graphic designers can make a lot of money. I think if you can convince your parents of that, it might start to sway them.
This is my diagnosis for the last guy, get pegged
last guy is just stimming #tism
Saw King Giz in New Orleans and it was phenomenal. Geck needs to get them on the show that would be awesome
She doesn't want to be chinies but her name is winning
I remember I went to a Chinese buffet and tried getting one of the waiters numbers. (She was an adult chill). She wasn't intrested in me probably but she explained how she literally just works at the restaurant 7days a week all the time.
I have a mom who supports the hell out of me and has always encouraged me to do whatever I want in life and that she will do whatever to help me get there and I understand that I am so lucky to have that from her it means the world to me. It hurts to hear when people like Winnie have parents who don't give that support and freedom of opportunity to their children.
So how can I call you from outside america? BECAUSE I NEED THIS
Pulling for you Winnie. 💚
How do i call
Winnie needs a nice chinese boyfriend who understands her
That first chick was rough to listen to. She’s a kid that has no idea how to survive in life
The fish floating backwards is killing me.😂
Damn Winnie, are you me?
WE NEED AN EPISODE WITH 100 GECS!!!!
Winnie needs a boyfriend!…….A good one! That will solve all of her problems.
im white and grew up around only hispanic and black people, i always wondered why I was bullied and different and wanted so badly to not be white lmao, feeling uncomfortable in your skin like that is horrible. although it seems like a lot of her issues is from her parents and not other people
Great episode.
Um social workers are garbage
somebody should tell the fake bakery guy about johnny cupcakes in Boston. It's a fake bakery. They only sell t-shirts, the whole company is just a clothing brand.
3rd caller needs some Eckhart Tolle in his life
