Ep. 1 | Welcome to The Lao Legacy Project

Welcome to the very first episode of The Lao Legacy Project Podcast. This first episode is a little different — and intentionally so. We wanted to begin this journey by introducing who we are, why we exist, and what this platform truly means to our community. The Lao Legacy Project was created to preserve, uplift, and advance Lao culture through storytelling, media, and shared experiences. As a Lao podcast rooted in cultural preservation, our mission is to highlight Lao heritage, Lao American identity, and the voices of the Southeast Asian diaspora. In this opening conversation, we lay the foundation for what’s to come. We speak on the importance of cultural identity, intergenerational trauma, and how refugee experiences continue to shape many Lao families today. We also explore how trauma shows up in the data — in our health, our stories, and the cultural gaps that often go unnoticed. These are conversations centered on healing, cultural awareness, and community empowerment. And of course — it wouldn’t be us without bringing some joy into the space. We lighten the table with cultural humor, including the very important question: How many chili peppers is actually spicy? 🌶️ A fun but relatable nod to Lao food culture and Southeast Asian spice levels. To close the episode, we talk about movement — literally and symbolically — with the early vision of forming a Lao traditional dance troupe. Dance, for us, is more than performance. It is cultural storytelling, healing, and heritage preservation in motion. This episode serves as our introduction — our “why” — and our invitation to you to be part of this journey to preserve Lao history, celebrate Lao traditions, and build legacy for future generations. If you believe in cultural storytelling, Southeast Asian representation, and advancing the Lao community… you’re in the right place. Welcome to The Lao Legacy Project Podcast.
