Ginger Radio Hour: Ocean Vuong

Ginger Radio Hour: Ocean Vuong. Photo by Ocean Vuong (Feb 01, 2026)

Produced by Justin Maiman.

Poet, writer, teacher, and photographer Ocean Vuong joins us live to talk about his new photo show at CPW in Kingston. CPW calls Vuong "one of the defining voices of his generation–an artist who renders a soulful, nuanced representation of the immigrant working-class experience in America." His show Sống is on view January 31 – May 10. 

Host Justin Maiman from Cairo shares his latest inspirations on the "Ginger Radio Hour." Live from WGXC's Acra studio, the show features music, field recordings, performances, and interviews, primarily with people in and around the Catskill Mountains of New York.
