Jordan, a few years back I heard you ask a guest, “how can I grow China Talk?” That day I didn’t think you would last as a podcaster.

Love this pod. Great discussions.

After sticking with this for nearly a year, I am now a “former“ listener/reader. I find that the quality varies enormously, and that the topic selection lacks coherence. Perhaps most disturbing of all is that when I try to listen in order to be able to do other things simultaneously, I am assaulted by a host who sounds like a high school sophomore trying to frame a thought or a sentence with as many “…..like” phrases as possible. It makes my head hurt. None of my adult children speak that way be... more
The range of topic is indeed wild. The last episode “Dissent from Moscow to Beijing” was really good.
Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.
