Ep 14 - Confession 懺悔 Chan Hui
Feb 26, 202400:08:42Tap to summarizeI had several experiences of Heartbreaks with friends and that's because if I consider you as my friend, I see you as my family. Vangie has always been so special to me but of course there had been a lot of situations that contributed to the metamorphosis between us but we remained friends perhaps I learned to be independent from her which I know she knew how much I wanted her to stay in my house all the time when we were young, but people change. The best thing that ever happened to us was the chance God gave us both to reconnect and she was able to see my life here in Taiwan. Vangie will always be special to me and to my kids. It was just so special how my heartbreak with my first ever soul sister Vangie, despite the pain and growing apart for so many years, we clicked the moment we saw each other eye to eye in Taoyuan International Airport arrival area. I recognized her and so did she. And for me, this is real friendship.

Ep 13 - Heartbreak 心碎 Xin Sui
Jun 13, 202200:05:31Tap to summarizeWow Taiwan Season 2 would be one step spicier from last year. The stories are raw, brave and bold. For I am much more willing to tell it all! This Wow Taiwan Heartbreak season will surely allow you to get to know more Taiwan in the most candid way. We have just begun. Real stories of my life, my heartbreak and the people in my lifetime soon. I remember in 2019, I was one of the speakers for Fuck Up Nights in Taichung Taiwan. If I would be asked again to share my failures now, I believe I would be able to vent out more. I have grown and I know God will help me with my mission.

Ep 11 - Happy New Year 新年快樂 Xin Nian Kuai Le
Jan 2, 202200:13:07Tap to summarizeWow Taiwan Season 2 The Struggles Time really flies so fast and we have finished our Wow Taiwan Season 1 with 10 Episodes. The said season featured all the amazing stuffs in Taiwan. One would think that Taiwan is a perfect country. However, I have news for you all! This Wow Taiwan Season 2 would offer you episodes of my first hand experiences as I survive all the struggles I had and would have as a New Immigrant in Taiwan! Indeed, a person willing to divulge his or her failure is courageous but this is exactly why I have my social media platforms. This is to share culture and hopefully bridge the gap between Filipinos and Taiwanese while promoting the exciting things one would see in Taiwan. The year 2021 has been so benevolent to me! At the beginning of the year, I launched my Wow Taiwan podcast and now reaches 30 countries globally! At the end of 2021, I had a successful publication of my very own website: www.everydaywithgen.com I am inviting you all to visit my site and see more Taiwan awesomeness!!!

Ep 10 - Liao Liao Diving feat. Ray and Asuka 聊聊淺水 Qian Shui
Aug 19, 202100:45:04Tap to summarizeWeww! What an episode with Ray and Asuka. While reviewing the full conversation, I honestly LOLed several times! The cheese hotpot and mild Stinky Tofu were the latest discoveries. Haha! I would probably go for these two the soonest! Meanwhile, I hope you guys would have fun with us in this episode as much as we had 'coz it took three to do the podcast tango. It was tough for me because I am a spontaneous person and yet I had to stay quiet as much as possible so that each of us would be audible. Ray, is an American who decided to stay in Taiwan for good and you guys can check more of him here： Ray moved to Xiaoliuqiu to teach freediving last year. Two years ago, his 20+ career in finance ended and that serendipity led him on a journey into freediving. This is also an episode about Ray's Life in Xiaoliuqiu as a freedive instructor. Here’s a blog post he recently wrote about Xiaoliuqiu: Tourist Guide. https://www.freedivenomadtaiwan.com/xiaoliuqiu/xiaoliuqiu-guide For my brother Asuka, he is the co-founder of an independent online news Migrant's Park. Just search these two words "migrants park" and you would be able to find articles on foreign workers, foreign spouses and New Immigrants in Taiwan! However, apart from his passion in writing, he's also into diving! One reason why you guys should listen and of course if you invite your friends with you, it would be better! Remember, the more, the merrier.

Ep 09 - Wachamacallit? 叫什麼? Jiao She Me?
Aug 1, 202100:18:06Tap to summarizeHere comes a wave Meant to wash me away A tide that is taking me under Swallowing sand Left with nothing to say My voice drowned out in the thunder But I won't cry And I won't start to crumble Whenever they try To shut me or cut me down I won't be silenced You can't keep me quiet Won't tremble when you try it All I know is I won't go speechless 'Cause I'll breathe When they try to suffocate me Don't you underestimate me 'Cause I know that I won't go speechless The world is round because it wants to give everyone equal opportunity to go up and down the roller coaster ride of life. I felt like being silenced just because I always choose to speak my mind for the common good, for the right thing... But no matter how circumstances treat you, just go on... Help is there for a real Gryffindor Anyways guys, idk if you'll understand this episode but I sure teach a lot of Mandarin here so prepare the replay button and be an excellent Chinese speaker in no time Youtube: https://youtube.com/c/HelloPhilTai%E6%88%91%E6%84%9B%E5%8F%B0%E7%81%A3%E5%92%8C%E8%8F%B2%E5%BE%8B%E8%B3%93TV Facebook Page: https://fb.watch/764CcQOd4h/
