2022-10-13 04:47:02 +0000 UTCSorry, I played the game back in 1998 when I was a teenager, I forgot a lot, I remember I was getting destroyed by everyone until I started using shield or buffing spells, the time mage I remember was good, the jumping dragoon knight was good, but yeah you gotta buff your guys, if you fight with no buffs you'll get clobbered after about the 10th battle or so. Check out Ogre Battle Tactics, or Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen, those are some good-ass bomb-ass games!

2022-10-12 04:33:04 +0000 UTCIn my mind, the biggest problem is that China was given way too much power and I doubt if other nations would vote to undo that. What would China do to retaliate, that is what all the others would wonder. So, likely they will never take a strong stance, UN peacekeeping forces have rarely really kept the peace. The UN is a noble idea, but a flawed institution.

2022-10-11 03:24:41 +0000 UTCIf I remember, they have said they take it with a bit of skepticism built into their reaction. You are right, part of that comes from Falun Gong and their questioning of some of that mindset. They also see it as a little sensational in approach but have said before that the show focuses on facts.

2022-10-11 03:19:32 +0000 UTCHey lads! Happy double 10 day to the great independent country of Taiwan! My question is about the UN votes at the human rights council: Do you agree with me that we need to take a harder line on countries that “Abstain” instead of saying yes or no? I think abstaining is very cowardly and defeats any purpose of having a debate. You either agree with a motion or you don’t! Stop with the pussyfooting around trying to offend powerful states. If it were up to me, I’d get rid of abstaining. Do you think it’s a good idea for the western states to start playing China at their own game in the UN (not financially) and start treating countries that choose to abstain from condemning human rights abuses as countries that tacitly support them, such as China’s genocide or Russias invasion? Seeing as China has effectively drawn the line between countries that either care about human rights, or those who don’t, as you discussed on the last show, we need to pressure other countries to take a harder line. A few of these abstentions turning into yes could have swung the vote. Enough walkin’, walkin blind against these ungodly nations!

2022-10-10 17:51:25 +0000 UTCI've noticed that you guys can sometimes be a little cold about or even throw a little shade at China Uncensored. I know you've been on the show (or their podcast) a few times, but is it possibly because they may have connections to Falun Gong? Or that they oversensationalize their headlines? You guys are almost always on the same page, and I like how indepth Chris can go on some topics. Just wanted to get your thoughts.

2022-10-06 20:13:37 +0000 UTCIs there anything to traditional Chinese medicine? Or is TCM in modern China another fake, made up thing, like the spray-painted grass?

2022-10-06 20:08:55 +0000 UTCSorry about the long question last week, something I've never heard you guys talk about that really bothered me living in china is what is with the super tiny towels? My Ex's there and their parents always used what seemed like hand towels after a shower and gave me one too, but hotels had normal sized towels, whats the lore behind that?

2022-10-05 19:30:41 +0000 UTCquestion: do you think that "bridge the gap" would find some popularity in China and if so, in which communities, I think the novelty of it being an American band would go over well in the Christian areas in northern China?
