Who We Are
As hosts, we’re two third-culture kids—individuals who’ve grown up between the East and the West. Though our cultural ingredients are similar, our paths have been different, leading to unique worldviews and rich conversations.
In a time where the world feels increasingly polarized, we hope to bridge divides by showcasing the spectrum of perspectives that exist beyond binaries. Our mission is to explore ideas that provoke thought, inspire dialogue, and create empathy across divides.
Podcast Structure
Episodes air twice a month, alternating between candid conversations and thought-provoking interviews with guests who bring fascinating insights. The podcast’s name, "Neither Here Nor There: Conversations Across ______" (NHNT) reflects our uncertainty in identity as multicultural individuals while the blank “______” in the title represents our openness to exploring any and all topics.
The tagline? A cheeky nudge to embrace more conversation and open-mindedness in every interaction.

Visual Identity
The branding of NHNT emphasizes the in-between. The color scheme features black, gray, and white with accents of vibrant colors, representing the wide spectrum of topics and perspectives we explore. There is no stark white or black—to reference how nothing is ever “all-or-nothing.”
Typography is clean, legible, and professional, with a subtle flair of eccentricity. It reflects the balance between thoughtful analysis and playful exploration.
