On this episode we are joined by family! Mikey & Xay Dé interview their sister, a beautiful makeup artist, a cosplay queen, and anime enthusiast – Niki Nami!! Mikey & Niki grew up together on the Southside of Chicago and have shared so many beautiful experiences. Making a bold choice, she decided to change her life, and moved across the world to teach English to kids in South Korea! While there her love for anime grew, as well as her interest in makeup and cosplay! We discuss the art form of cosplay and how racism & misogyny find their way into this world as well.
