    Excellent study
    Posh accents make me feel like I need to sit up straighter and listen. Still, great and energetic speaker! Concise yet illuminating writing. Perfect length for commutes. Enjoyed all the little audio effects that highlighted the narration and didn’t muddy it up. And! Beautiful artwork.

    Fantastic podcast
    Absolutely fantastic! I’ve learnt so much about the Chinese culture with this podcast! It is a rich tapestry melded with history from over 5,000 years. It’s no wonder the culture intrigues so many. This makes me understand the Chinese mentality from a much deeper level! When all the mainstream media outlets are saying unfair things about China, I think everyone should listen to this first!
