I welcomed Wuhan-based Andrew Shaw onto the CHP to talk about his book. It's all about the plundering of China's cultural treasures and imperial artifacts by not just the British, French, and Americans. It seems everyone got in on the act. Even the l... more

  • The History Of TCM

    I am a TCM practitioner. I have benefitted listening to the history of TCM by Laszlo. The content of interpretation might be a bit too simplistic, but overall it is very informative for those who might or might not be a TCM practitioner, which a subtle humour which I like.

  • Filling a big gap in my otherwise good education

    Chinese history is sadly not part of the education of most of the education for most of us in the West. This podcast does a good job of filling that gap, with detailed explanations of one period or individual. I have no way of judging whether the presenter’s explanations and analyses match those of scholars in China itself, but I feel I’m learning a lot. The presentations are clear and well crafted.

  • Great show!

    I’ll admit, at first I was a bit put off by Lazlo’s… how should I put it? “Chicago swagger”? But after a bit I’m all in. His knowledge and experience is unmatched for an American audience. As a fairly regular traveler to China and curious explorer I find this podcast ESSENTIAL. On par with Mike Duncan and Dan Carlin in terms of research and storytelling, probably surpassing them both because of his personal history with the subject. I’m more than happy to be a subscriber and financial supporter.... more

  • An absolutely brilliant podcast

    As a long time student of Chinese history and philosophy Lazlo’s “the history of Chinese philosophy” is without the best discourse on the subject I’ve ever listened to. All eighteen episodes in the series are pure gold. The fact that there’s eighteen episodes dedicated to this important subject are welcomed and rare.

    Every episode is well researched and presented by someone that clearly has both great knowledge and great love for the subject of Chinese history. I can not recommend this podcast ... more
