This podcast was an odyssey. Truthfully, I’m not their target demographic, I don’t watch anime, I don’t follow any of the hosts and only found this podcast by chance because of their NileRed episode. But I was spellbound by Aleks’ story, he told it so beautifully it genuinely made me emotional, cheering for his first success in LA, flabbergasted at his uni exam results, and heartbroken at the thought of a 14 year old kid being essentially abandoned in another country to fend for himself but ends up finding purpose and joy despite his circumstances. I hope he finds the peace and contentment he’s looking for. For someone who grew up on unstable ground without support from parental figures to pursuing a career in such a volatile industry as entertainment and actually finding success - he deserves to take a moment to catch his breath.

His ability to admit his fear and wanting to run away, and his will to stay and fight despite it, IS what makes him brave and so relatable. It really does make him seem more "human" in a way the other characters don't.

Usually, i only watch Trash Taste while i'm eating, 30 minutes at max. But for this episode, i watched it straight from the start until the end without pause because of how interesting, funny, and inspirational the conversation is. I have respect for Aleks Le for the grind and struggle he did to get where he is right now. He did anything necessary and putting everything on the line. But, what really hits me is something that he said. This is not the exact wording but he was saying along these lines, "i don't want to just sit and watching the life goes on, the time just fly away." I didn't come from a family that suffers poverty, nor a family who is rich enough. Sometimes i feel like i'm not trying hard enough at everything i do, because i have backups if i fail. Family will help me financially, that is what i always think. So, all this time i am someone that contradicts Aleks Le's person: wasting his life away, don't care whatever happens, i will do what i like, never thinking what will happen to me becaause i have emergency escape plan through my family. Watching this episode got me thinking, maybe i must not let opportunities that i have now slide away easily. I must change to be a better person, appreciating everything better, doing harder grind, and not letting the days waste away easily. Thank you for inviting Aleks to the Trash Taste Podcast. Cheers to you guys 🎉

That freaking movie was marketed back then that have a star studded cast of great VAs. I watched it solely for that. And was oblivious it was a a Happy Science anime mythology for their cult. Granted I immediately forgot all about that movie until Mother's Basement made a video about it then for some reason when he was summarizing the story it felt as though that I had watched the movie. Until at some point I rembered I did watched it and kept laughing I unknowingly watched a Happy Science Anime

@DraptorRonin 24 дня назад

Aha! I knew it! When he mentioned the cast list, I immediately got flashbacks to Mother’s Basement! No wonder he didn’t want to talk about that gig much. Probably not one of his proudest moments having voiced in a cult-propaganda film.

@kairos_fluent 25 дней назад

At 16:20 - Garnt's experience of being invisible in high school is common among second-gen Asians. I think Asian immigrant parents are completely ignorant in knowing that yes, your children might be educationally/financially advantaged compared to you but there's a huge social handicap in just not being able to blend in and don't be surprised if your kid is a loner or very shy. This intense striving for all this 'American/Western Dream' stuff when you can't *fully* assimilate makes the striving kind of redundant. Immigrant parents should want financial and *social* success for their kids, just my two cents.

@Rosa-kd2cl 24 дня назад

If anyone's wondering, after some googling I believe Aleks's first role was "Laws of the Universe Part 1". Tom Kenny, Yuri Lowenthal, Josh Keaton are all in it, and he plays a villain named Dahar.

As an asian guy myself, it is cool to see more role models and positive representations of people who look like me in the west. Keep on rocking Aleks! From another Alex. 👍

Already rewatching this episode because it is definitely one of the best Trash Taste episodes! I‘m grateful to hear this inspiring story. I think it is amazing of him to be so honest about his past wrongdoings caused by being simply human in unfortunate situations and a hard industry. I‘m sad to see some people in the comments label him as a bad person because of these things… (and if you have never been in a situation so dire you had to lie you must be very privileged tbh.) It‘s respectable and inspiring how he is open about imperfections yet he‘s impressive and funny! Also respect to him for being good at telling stories. It must not be easy to condense such a long story into like an hour. Also, I‘m sure everyone is saying this already so sorry for being unoriginal but he‘s got no reason to be insecure about his smile, his smile is super cute!

I fckin love Aleks, so glad he's on here, one of my fav EN VOs for sure! Genuinely one of the most interesting backstories, what a goat fr

@AlekeLe is the epitome of get so good at your job that you doing a bad job gets the money 😂 Loved hearing your story man. Sorry it was so difficult for you but glad you're doing well now. Happy to have you be a fellow fan of the boys. All the respect for you being picky or your roles. Makes me want to watch more dub even though I've gotten away from it recently. Thanks for defending Zen, and crazy to think you're only as old as my baby sister 😂

@cheyennemoore8380 24 дня назад

Hearing your story I was like "God's been looking out for this guy" especially with your crazy California trip. I'm sure he does enjoy your antics. I know I do. Would love to hear more stories sometime!

I met Aleks Le at a con just before this episode dropped, and he is one of the nicest people I've met. Deserves every bit of success he has gotten thus far!

@pommfritzon6198 25 дней назад

I think Aleks is genuienly one of the best VA's we have today. Super cool to see him on the show!

@Chewi_ 24 дня назад

The cheating through school and telling someone your going to end up dead if they don't give you a chance is pretty scummy. But I appreciate and admire his drive to succeed! I hope his parents believe in him now.

@SavantGardeEX 24 дня назад

He was a problematic teenager but hey it worked out 😂

@nicht_ueberlegt 24 дня назад

Everyone makes mistakes and depending on the situation even bad mistakes. He was a teenager in a dire situation. Also getting into this industry or in general becoming very successful is difficult especially for those with a poor background. His actions were indeed scummy but it doesn’t make him as a whole scummy.

@ChadHellgado 23 дня назад

He was just a broke kid desperate for a decent future

@kitefully868 22 дня назад

Dude lied about his backstory

@sheridanwolf 22 дня назад

I don't like the word "scummy" being used here, unfair and a little unseasonable sure, but in desperation it's totally understandable. In personal interpretation I think the term defines something even lower than what he did. It's not like he encouraged people to do the same, or did not acknowledge what he did was wrong. Cheating at academics is lowest type of offence I could come up with at the top of my head.

persona 3 reload was my first approach to persona 3 at all and I loved all of the work the cast did, I’ve really grown fond of everyone’s interpretation of the characters I cannot wait to watch this video once I can !!

@TheKnicks2012 25 дней назад

Honestly I rarely sit through an entire episode of any type of podcast unless the anime based episodes or cool guests. But the way Aleks explains his stories, is extremely transparent, well spoken, and real with himself and reality, it made me glued to the screen. Really just felt like getting to know someone’s story and struggle. I even felt anxiety for his lifestyle, responsibility, and way of life in his early stages. Really felt like we went on a journey of his entire life and I oddly want to be friends with him. Also I loved how aware and honest he was about religion, his luck, and the feelings of not being happy. Usually all conversations of religion try to convert you or dismiss you but I understood exactly where he was coming from. I was suppose to sleep at 1am and finally break my insomnia streak but here I am at 3:09am writing this comment. I respect him, feel inspired and motivated, and also tired af. Suck an awesome and chill dude. AND he likes Gintama which is the true mark of greatness. This is probably my favorite TT episode even if we include the anime based ones. Great episode!

Who is more impressive when overcoming scary and deadly situation: a brave guy, a crazy guy or a coward. That's why Zenitsu is the most impressive out of three.

@SunflowerJester 10 часов назад

Aleks was one of my favorite guests on this podcast. I knew nothing about him beforehand. I only saw the shorts and thought he seemed cool so I wanted to watch the episode. It's funny how the internet says he's 35 when hes 25 because he definitely acts older than he is. I think I liked him as a guest because of that. He's really wise. I think thats a good word for it.

Aleks! I have the same observations. I go through some bad cycles that lead to awesome things. I am committed to it! We are just part of something bigger. We are given lessons to learn. And there’s an awesome realization at the end. Let’s keep learning!
