Asian Rebel Club Podcast
A podcast every Asian should’ve had growing up, and probably still needs.
A podcast for Asian/Asian diaspora untangling family expectations, cultural guilt, and the myth of perfection.
Hosted by Crystal Ren, who brings her own messy, magical story to the mic, so you don’t have to figure it out alone. This podcast is a mix of honest convos, cultural unlearning, emotional plot twists, and slow rebellion. Each episode helps you unlearn who you were told to be, so you can reclaim who you really are.
New episodes bi-weekly-ish.

Episode 12: From Fashion Icon to Authentic Living: Alex Liang on Style, Scrolling, and Saying ‘Enough’ (Part 2)
In Part 2 of our conversation, Alex Liang, fashion influencer turned real estate creative, gets real about:
- The downside of social media fame ("I’m more private than people think")
- Navigating identity as an Asian man in fashion ("I had no role models—so I made my own rules")
- Why he walked away from the influencer world ("It got boring… and gross")
- His surprising definition of freedom now (Hint: It’s not followers or fame)
- The cultural belief he outgrew ("Saving face? I never bought into that")
Plus, the small joys that keep him grounded (hello, garden therapy) and the one thing he’s proudest of: trusting his gut.
If you’ve ever felt boxed in by labels, or wondered what comes after “success”, this is for you.
