A girl and her chair boyfriend sets off on a road trip across Japan to chase a talking cat, we did not know that this is what we were going to watch when we sat down with Suzume, but here we are. On this episode, Marvin and Hanh sit down to watch their very first Makoto Shinkai film, Suzume. Did it live up to the hype as some good pop?

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR

"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting. New episodes premiere every Thursday.
