Real Stories. Unscripted.
Hi, we’re Chris & Pao. We’re endlessly curious.
About people.
About ideas.
About food.
About music.
About travel.
About creativity.
About why some stories stay with us long after they're over.
That curiosity has taken us backstage with touring artists, into conversations with entrepreneurs and community leaders, around dinner tables with our own family, and down more rabbit holes than we can count.
Honestly... we wouldn't have it any other way.
Because we believe the best stories aren't always the biggest ones.
Sometimes they're told from a stage.
Sometimes they're told across a kitchen table.
Sometimes they're hiding inside an ordinary Tuesday.
Those are the stories we're drawn to.
What You’ll Find Here
why We do this?
There's more content in the world than any of us could ever consume.
We don't want to add to the noise.
We want to help you spend your time well.
If something makes us laugh...
We'll share it.
If a conversation changes the way we think...
We'll invite you into it.
If we discover an incredible artist, a hidden gem, a meaningful cause, or a recipe that's too good to keep to ourselves...
You'll probably hear about it.
Think of us as your professionally curious friends who happen to own cameras, microphones, and a newsletter.
You'll hear conversations with musicians, comedians, creators, entrepreneurs, and everyday people who have something worth sharing.
You'll discover recipes we'll actually make again, places we'd happily return to, books and shows we can't stop recommending, and the little things that make life a little more interesting.
You'll also get an honest look into our own lives—raising a family, chasing big ideas, navigating our careers, laughing at ourselves, and trying to make the most of the beautiful mess that comes with all of it.
Because we don't believe storytelling should feel polished.
We think it should feel human.
And yes, We work with Brands…
Storytelling is what we love.
It's also what we do.
We partner with brands, businesses, nonprofits, artists, and organizations to create thoughtful content that connects with people—not because it's louder, but because it's more genuine.
Whether we're behind the microphone, behind the camera, or behind the scenes, our goal is always the same:
Tell stories people actually care about.
Welcome In.
We hope you leave here a little happier.
A little more curious.
Maybe inspired to try something new.
Maybe reminded that there are still good people doing interesting things.
Or maybe you simply found one thing that made your day a little better.
If that happens...
We'll call it a good day.
Welcome to IAFM.
We're glad you're here.
