AUNTIE

“Your AAPI Hypewoman”

Who She Is:
Auntie is your go-to for discovering and supporting AAPI-owned businesses—restaurants, skincare brands, boutiques, and more.

Whether it’s telling you where to find the best dim sum or a new indie brand, Auntie is here to make sure you support the community.

What She Does:
She could anchor an interactive, map-based series that links local establishments to genuine reviews and insider tips. From tea shops in Alhambra to boutiques in Koreatown, Auntie makes sure you’re shopping local and staying fabulous.

Adventures:
Her segments include quick recaps of dining experiences, spontaneous shopping sprees, and even social challenges like “spot the best boba”—all with a side of affectionate judgment. And she speaks multiple languages!

LORETTA

“Gossip Oracle”

Who She Is:
Loretta is a Greek oracle who offers witty, satirical takes on ancient mythology. Armed with her sassy love for drama and a penchant for gossip, she breaks down classic myths as if they were juicy celebrity scandals.

What She Does:
Loretta’s segments deliver sharp, satirical “lore drops” that reframe classical myths for a modern, internet-native audience. The concept works seamlessly as a short-form TikTok or YouTube Shorts series, but could easily be expanded into longer-form YouTube essays or mini-docs that dig deeper into mythology and its cultural resonance.

Adventures:
Each episode tackles a myth through a pop-culture lens—like “Poseidon Could’ve Just Gone to Therapy” or “Before They Were a Constellation, They Were Just Petty Twins: Gemini Lore.” Loretta breaks down the drama of the gods with meme-ready precision and unapologetic flair.
