The China Show
Hosted by Winston and Matt · EN
A no nonsense (well... sometimes a lot of nonsense) look at what's happening in China, from viral stories on the ground, to entertainment, to politics and more. Winston and Matt spent over a decade in China, narrowly escaping persecution from the oppressive Chinese government, and are here every single Friday to tell you what is going on in the country. This is the only place you need to be, every week, if you want to stay on top of what's happening in China.
