This episode was so good, I stopped watching half way to save up the episode for bad times, if you know what I mean.

Did a little fact-check on the first 90s pop song that was featured on the show. The singer, Faye Wong, and songwriters, Jim Lau and Albert Leung, are all Hongkongers. Hongkongers had captured the mainland market until local artists finally filled the void.

This episode really takes me back.

I really like and appreciate Chris and the others over at China Uncensored, and I hate to use the kids’ phrases, but you guys utterly mogged them. You two are the absolute GOAT and now I understand why you didn’t collab with CU before

This made me strangely nostalgic, even though it’s about China. I think I miss a time before cell phones. Of course, I say that as I type this comment on my cell phone.

One thing you could sort out the now or 90-ies from is the trash and cloths. Poor people don't throw cloths and working stuff away. Now every poor country in the world are very well dressed with second hand western cloths because they take care of our garbage so some is thrown away even there. It is really ugly how we consume all the time.

I have a mouse pad with the picture of that first artist bought in 2001.

Smash a clove of fresh garlic and leave it in a glass of hot water for 10 minutes also add some ginger slices if on hand. When the water is only warm, add half a lemon's juice or lime. Add Tablespoon of Manuka honey or regular honey. Add half a teaspoon of tumeric powder, and the same amount of ceylon cinnamon or regular cinnamon. Add elderberry syrup if available. The garlic alone will help immune system supercharge, but sip on that combination drink once or twice a day to get over the flu kinda stuff quicker. I beat strep throat without antibiotics this way, last week, and it was pretty painless, 3 days. Alcohol and sugar slow down the healing some, hope you both feel better quick! 😸🍻

“This is now” reminds me of the VHS scene from Spaceballs. “When is this in the movie?!” “This is now, now. Everything that’s happening now, is now.” “What happened to then?” “We missed it.” “When?!” “Just now.”
