	Description:		On this week's show, we begin (1:34) with a look at some traditions of past eras that have largely fallen by the wayside in this modern age, such as teeth blackening and cricket fights. We also honor a few habits that have survived, such as kite flying and the many rituals of Tet. Then (12:47) we look at our beloved Vietnamese cuisine and ponder some ways in which it could be even healthier and more well-balanced than it already is. This segment includes a brief fight over mayo. Our interview segment (22:40) features Mai Nguyen, who has worked in everything from robotics and maker spaces to dyes and social entrepreneurship. Find out more about her wide-ranging projects on her website: https://www.curiousmeye.com/ As always, we end with Banh Mi Banter (36:56).
