unless I am mistaken, China Fact Chasers clips are just sections that the boys cut out from previous "The China Show" shows.

Question: Do you have many insights into how poorly treated and also poorly trained are PLA soldiers actually are by the Chinese government? Whenever China and India clash on the border, the most salient thing that sticks out to me is the completely different physiques of the two soldiers. The Chinese soldiers are always scrawny thin little nerds while the Indian soldiers are shredded, and extremely well trained, equipped with the right weapons and winter gear, very experienced and overall look way fitter. They’re evidently well looked after. It’s always not a surprise when the little emperors cop a drubbing whenever they try to breach the Indian border. And as for all China’s neighbours India is basically the one country that actually fights back whenever China tries its salami slicing crap. So for that I say, Jai Hind!

Q: You guys have a great show with China Fact Chasers; what if you combine all those videos throughout the week into one longer show?

Q: What happens after 70 years on your property you own in China, do you have to pay at the end of the lease, can you pass it on to your family ? Is it different in rural areas that don't have giant apartments, opposed to 3 floored old housing ? ALSO, I'm gonna have to defend Hainan, even if clam man, Russian expats looking for a cheap holidays or modeling work, and the heat + expensive markets ruined the experience for anyone. Still think its a really cool island, super sweaty but at least not polluted and beaches are 'nice', Of course I'd recommend Taiwan, but its very interesting in the rural parts on Hainan.. Didn't find anywhere in mainland like it. Cheers & sorry for clam man.

Question: What's the most authentic dish you've had at your average Chinese restaurant in the USA? I don't mean Chinatown-authentic but the Americanized Chinese food. Said more succinctly: what dish has lost the least in translation between China and America?

On how people get money out of China, I was surprised you guys didn't mention the big one in SZ and the PRD: never let the money onshore in the first place. Most factory owners I knew in the PRD made sure to have international business conducted through a HK bank so most of the money stayed offshore -- and then they only smuggled over cash for payroll and taxes/bribes. Then, if they were making fat stacks, they could buy a left-hand-drive car or van with HK and 粤Z plates so they could buy all their (safer) food in HK. Feel like you guys could do a deep dive on the lao ban/factory owners and even Dongguan ecosystem (beyond fashion which you've covered exquisitely). I wish you'd get "Chinese Manners" back as a sound bite - it's ripe for lots of use! But if not that, could I get a Port of Dandong loud enough to hear in the DPRK?

question: have either of you considered writing a book about your experiences with corruption in the ccp?

Super messed up that I can't participate using the chat during the show because I watched some crafts video that was labeled "for kids" with my child. Youtube says: "Can’t send messages because you subscribed to this channel while watching a video made for kids" I have been subbed to the China Show for what, a year?...

Has an American News agency ever contacted you guys for an interview?

Q: So there was some discussion last time on TCM. Now, I have a respect for as a tradition, and having to biologists as parents, actually have appreciation for the potential for the herbs, since in many cases there is research for elements in them that nutritional and medically active elements and herbs. I do understand skepticism on it and over blown claims. Now we can disagree about how much, whether any works or not per se. However, what you brought up about them making claims about TCM herbs that were "newly discovered" to treat COVID goes to an issue I have seen that seems to always happen in PR of China. Based on the way TCM works and the method for making herbal compounds, this could be true but that is not the issue I will be asking. Whereas they use TCM basically and openly in Taiwan, Japan, Korea and Vietnam, I see the CCP doing further politicizing of TCM. Do you worry they are just politicizing TCM again, like what has gone on with traditional Chinese martial arts and that it will one, cause problems for any actual herbal compounds of value, and reduce the likelihood for people seeking stronger modern medicines should symptoms become more severe? Sorry long question.

Q: Any chance there will be a physical release of a special box set of Conquering China? I'd be very interested, huge fan of the series, still the best to have something physical.
