Season 2, Ep. 10: Limited Partnership

This is our last episode of the second season, and we're ending it with a real life epic romance, told in the 2014 documentary Limited Partnership. It's the story of a Filipino American named Richard Adams; an Australian without a green card named Tony Sullivan; and their four-decade-long fight to stay together in America, despite the US government not recognizing their legal 1975 marriage as a "bona fide marriage" that should give them the same rights as heterosexual couples.

Earlier in the season, we talked about Kelly Loves Tony. We now try to convince you that the biopic you've all been waiting for is a yet-to-be-made Asian American feature film called Richard Loves Tony. Also, Ada diverts Brian away from a confusing use of the word "aroused" when he really means "awakened." So all the elements of a good Saturday School episode.

Saturday School is a podcast where we teach your unwilling children about Asian American pop culture history. Our first season was on Asian American comedy films. Our second season is about Asian Americans in love.
