Diana Nguyen speaks Michael Stangl — a graduate student who's been studying the mountain lions of West Texas with the Borderlands Research Institute. They talk about the takeaways from their research on the mysterious creatures.

Later on the show, poet Sally Wen Mao discusses “Oculus,” a collection of poetry that re-imagines the flattened narratives of women of color. Mao looks at the roles and representations that Asian women endure in a society that continually objectifies them. Hosted by Diana Nguyen for KRTS
