  • Great podcast!

    Alice and David are doing a fantastic job with insightful comments and observations. I am also touched by their genuine care and concern for the ordinary Chinese people. I feel this quality is increasingly lacking in the current geopolitical climate. So thank you Alice and David.

  • My go to for gaining insight about China

    By far my favourite show to keep up to date with China. David and Alice strikes a good balance between uncovering the side of China that is perhaps not headline worthy whilst not being overly biased. It’s not so much that everything about China is bad, the show serves as a good counter argument against the the propaganda machine.
