HAUS OF LILY | Real (Drag) Queens of Beijing
#087: Haus of Lily | (Drag) Queens of Beijing
Haus of Lily are Beijing’s finest drag queen revue. Three of the nine current queens were in the studio tonight, and we may not break the internet, but we DID kill the wine before the show even started. We have fun, get real, laugh our heads off, and talk about damn near everything you can imagine. NOTE: I put the “Explicit Language” rating on this for a REASON. Consider yourself warned - and enjoy! 😄

#086: Speaking at the US Embassy in Beijing | BRENDAN DAVIS
Today I can announce that I am honored to have been invited, along with my Migration Media cohort, to speak at the US Embassy here in Beijing on Thursday, December 13 in celebration of International Migrants Day. We've put together what should hopefully be a fun and fascinating evening, and I hope you’ll join us if you can. More information and the SIGN UP link are in the blog post below.

EVENT SUMMARY
With over 258 million people living outside their country of birth, the global migrant community is the fastest-growing major demographic in the world. Yet their voices are often missing from mainstream media. The population that the UN labels as “international migrants” goes by many names: Expats, foreigners, refugees, digital nomads, 海龟. But who are they? Where do they live? Why do they move? What does “home” mean for them? Living between cultures, what kind of culture do they create, and how do they impact their communities?
In honor of International Migrants Day, participate in a discussion about these questions with a diverse group of Americans who are living the migration experience in their own ways and who are working to elevate migrant stories worldwide. Speakers include Mike Shaw, Chrislyn Choo, Brendan Davis, Cara Gleeson, and Jonathan Garrison, who will share their journeys from “the nation of immigrants” to China. The program will include a presentation about the state of global migration, as well as a panel discussion about the challenges and opportunities that international migrants face when they make the choice to live outside their country of origin.

#084: YINGYING LI & BRENDAN DAVIS on “How China Works”, Change, & Growth on “Big Fish Side Dish”
On this week’s Side Dish, Yingying Li and I talk about lessons learned from doing “How China Works”, which is at the halfway point of Season 1 as of today - but this isn’t a promo. It’s a jumping-off point for some real talk about how the crazy and ever-changing US-China dynamic is affecting us, our friends, our plans, and how we are changing our trajectories as a result.

MEREDITH SIDES | NAKED Nut Butters
#083: MEREDITH SIDES | NAKED Nut Butters
Meredith Sides is the kind of effortlessly funny that makes her a freakin’ joy to talk with - so much so that I had to edit 15 minutes of me rambling and BSing with her out of the raw interview (which is on me and not her for sure). But she’s also deadly serious about a topic near and dear to her heart: nut butters. She's an addict, and along with her friend and co-founder Katie, she created and runs NAKED Nut Butters to bring the joys of all-natural blended nut products to the Beijing market and beyond.

BART BAGGETT | Success Secrets of the Rich and Happy
#081 - Success Secrets of the Rich and Happy | BART BAGGETT
Author. Speaker. Personal development guide. A Ted Talker. He’s been on “The Howard Stern Show”, on “Larry King Live”, and for this episode, he’s at my studio in Beijing. Bart Baggett wears and has worn many hats, but perhaps “sherpa” is the one that fits best. His new company is Prism Life Design, his new book is the title of this podcast episode, and his energy is contagious. He does a bit of armchair analysis on me that 1) was pretty accurate, as hot takes go, and 2) instructive as a guide to the right questions to ask to gain some new insights into yourself. In theory. Your mileage may vary - but you’ll never know unless you set aside your ego and try. Enjoy!

"Big Fish Side Dish" with KEVIN GEIGER: The Environment, The Singularity, & The Future
#074 - "Big Fish Side Dish" with KEVIN GEIGER: The Environment, The Singularity, & The Future
On today’s “BFSD”, where previous “Big Fish in the Middle Kingdom” guests return for a catch-up chat, KEVIN GEIGER and I discuss degradations in environments physical and political, raising kids to have both coding and wilderness survival skills, the future of tech and society as we blow past AI and march towards the Singularity, and much much more. It’s RAW, unedited (and therefore a bit rambly), sometimes dark but always honest, and pretty fun. Enjoy!

This week’s episode features Sean Koopmans. Sean is a Dutch Canadian who moved to Beijing in 2002. He left a world of vintage cars and clean air and came to China, where he found little of either.

“Big Fish Side Dish” with YINGYING LI: Announcing “How China Works”!
#071 - “Big Fish Side Dish”: Announcing “How China Works”! | YINGYING LI
This week I am SUPER EXCITED to be sitting down with my friend YingYing Li to announce the project we have been hard at work on: “How China Works”! It’s a new daily podcast designed to help foreigners become “China-smart” and to help Chinese people better understand the outside world, in 15 minutes or less per day. The goal is that Yingying and I will use our combined, hybrid perspective - crossing cultures, generations, and genders - to help find common ground and build better understanding between East & West. The Intro episode drops November 1 and the full series launches November 5. More information coming soon!

While most of China is on vacation enjoying National Golden Week, a yearly holiday celebrating the founding of the PRC, I’ve been busier than usual.

“Big Fish Side Dish”: Punk Rock | JONATHAN GARRISON
#068 - “Big Fish Side Dish”: Punk Rock | JONATHAN GARRISON
In this inaugural episode of “BIG FISH SIDE DISH”*, Jonathan Garrison and I riff on how punk rock and other hardcore music helped shape our childhoods and changed our life trajectories. A 12-pack of Harbin Beer might’ve been involved. In a related note, you get to hear how much I curse when I don’t pay attention and mind my manners. Enjoy.
*”Big Fish Side Dish” is a companion show to “Big Fish in the Middle Kingdom” that invites a previous show guest to sit down for a more casual conversation focused on a specific topic - unedited and uncensored.
