Now In Color


Now In Color is a weekly podcast that brings POC stories, erased from history, back to the forefront. 

Feb 18, 2019

This week, stage tech and photographer, Aaron Amodt joins Sandie to tell the story of the Chinese magician Ching Ling Foo...and his infamous rival, Ching Ling Soo. A magician never reveals his secret, but we'll give you a hint: one of them is in yellowface. If Rachel Dolezal can get away with it, why are we even surprised a master of illusion in the late 1800s could, too? Aaron also discusses his time traveling with the Ringling Brothers, working in theater, and much to Sandie's dismay, how Josh Groban (Sandie's first true celebrity crush) slid in some DMs!
