Nineteen new rules for home care

Bringing someone into your home to clean or care for your family feels like a private arrangement. In China, it is also a thirty-million-person industry, one that has long run on informal deals, unclear hours, and unanswered questions about who is responsible when something goes wrong. Now nineteen new measures aim to change how that work is done, covering everything from training and insurance to background checks and pricing. On the show: Steve, Fei Fei & Yushan

When presentations become a party game

You walk into a room and find a stage waiting for you. Someone hands you a presentation you have never seen before. The slides make no sense, the crowd is waiting, and your only job is to keep talking. In Beijing, Shanghai, and a handful of other Chinese cities, this is a game that turns everything you know about professional presentations upside down, and once you hear why people keep coming back, you might want to try it yourself.

Where do we draw the AI music line?

It sounded like a hit, it charted like a hit, and radio played it like a hit. There was just one catch. No human made it.

The Hyrox Beijing incident

A competitor at HYROX Beijing left a bowel accident across the sleds, mats, and rowers, forcing the other athletes onto contaminated equipment. She still finished first.

When being heard becomes a business

Across China, people are paying strangers for what friends used to give for free — a listener to vent to, or someone to offer custom compliments and rebuild confidence. Maybe connection isn't the problem. Maybe trust is. Today, we're asking what happens when we'd rather pay a stranger than lean on the people we know. On the show: Steve, Yushan & Yushun

The Why: big tech's battle for keyboards

Every text you send, every search you run, every question you ask an AI passes through the same quiet piece of software beneath your fingertips, and it is watching all of it.

The battle to reinvent the keyboard may be the fiercest front in the AI competition, hiding in the one place nobody thinks to look. On the show: Steve, Yushan & Yushun

China's new standards on kids' cosmetics

A little girl opens a treasure box and finds a tiny eyeshadow palette, a lipstick, and a blush. To her, it's a toy. To her parents, it's a question mark. China is about to tighten the rules on makeup made for kids aged 12 and under, with tougher limits on contamination and stricter safety requirements. But why are children being sold beauty products at all, and will new standards actually make them safer? On the show: Steve, Fei Fei & Yushun
