Fire Chicken Day
Its really easy to forget about American holidays living in China, yet we manage to remember the biggies like Thanksgiving, New Years, and Christmas. In this episode you see how we celebrate Thanksgiving, international style.

No-Size Fits All
The whole theme about shopping for clothes was supposed to be podcast #2, but I somehow never got around to actually filming it. See how something as simple as buying a shirt turns into a serious affair.

The Shaolin Temple
Way back in the sixth grade when me and Shug became friends, we thought it would be cool to study kung fu in China. Who knew we would both actually end up living here. I always wanted to go to the Shaolin temple, and now my dream has been fulfilled.

Newbies in the Zhou
I was walking around one day and ran into some foreigners that looked really lost. I basically took them under my wing and showed them around. They invited me to watch their summer program's closing ceremony; how could I turn them down? I was bored, but you should enjoy the 3 hour program cut down to less than 10 minutes.

This City is Amoying
Xiamen once upon of time was better know as Amoy, hence the name for this episode. My friend Sakura was a new arrival in Fuzhou and hadn't been to too many places in Fujian. Me being the kinda guy I am, I planned a trip and we toook off for the day. See us fend off the tour guides and eat at a 4 star Pizza hut before my batteries died.
Customer Reviews
Like A Trip To China
Ron keeps his video podcasts fast and funny and if you've been to China before, you'll appreciate his viewpoint even more. Great work.
Spot On
Talk about keeping it real in the field, you can't get any more accurate than this footage! From the street food, tours/trips and the randomness of China, I think you did an excellent job covering real life. Whenever I need a good laugh, I sift through the episodes for some comedy. I wish you'd make some more!
Thank you
Most videos I've seen show the cities from a tourist perspective. Thanks for getting out and doing some everyday things with ALL your friends. And your uber funny so that helps. Way to go!
