   #198- Lee Mack: The Carrot or the Stick

   Lee Mack is an education innovator, investor and researcher. He is co-founder of Meridian Education and also writes a newsletter called Educationology. He was previously Director of Admissions and Marketing at Wellington College International Shanghai. Today, we discuss the enormous and innovative changes that need to happen both inside and outside our schools. We discuss the debate around Wang Hong’s comments after winning the Fields Medal and compare Chinese and American approaches to schooling, including academic pressure, student autonomy, family expectations, and the purpose of an education. We talk about new education pathways, homeschooling and what children still need to learn for themselves when AI can supply all the answers. ____________________ 下载节目文字版: Episode Transcripts (https://pan.baidu.com/s/1ZEPdEDTv71Tq3N_Er_FOpw?pwd=THD1) ____________________ If you enjoy this show don't forget to leave a rating and subscribe! 小红书: THD The Honest Drink Follow Us On IG: @thehonestdrink_ Join Us On WeChat: THD_Official 商业: sponsor@thdpod.com Find us on: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, 小宇宙, 喜马拉雅, 网易云音乐, 小红书, Bilibili or anywhere you get your podcasts. _____________________ 0:00 An Education Insider’s Journey 4:01 What Should Education Be For? 13:31 Choice, Competition, and the Rat Race 19:30 China and America’s Opposing Dilemmas 28:34 School Pathways and the Gaokao 34:02 Asian Achievement and Admissions Bias 36:34 Is Studying Abroad Still Worth It? 50:30 Money, Status, and School Culture 53:25 Academic Achievement vs. Sports Culture 59:56 China’s High-Pressure Education System 1:09:26 Grade Inflation and Admissions Pressure 1:12:03 How AI Is Changing Education 1:23:44 Homeschooling and New Education Models 1:28:46 AI’s Future in Chinese Education 1:30:31 Predicting the Next Decade 1:38:45 Critical Thinking, Meaning, and Purpose 在小宇宙查看该单集文稿 (https://oia.xiaoyuzhoufm.com/player/6af36dd73caef3b52f53dc19?openTranscript=true&utm_source=rss&as=cHQ9MTIyNjE5MjQ3JmN0PXJzcyZtdD04&autoOpen=false)

   #197- David Ammerschlaeger: Artificially Human

   David Ammerschlaeger is a clinical psychologist and Chief psychological counselor at ChingHo Medical Clinic in Shanghai. Today we talk about whether humanity will be ok. We discuss AI, digital technology and their effects on people’s thinking and relationships. We talk about the “validation vortex”, learned ADHD, and consciousness. We also talk about AI companions, sex-bots, and the hyper-sexualization of society. We discuss the dire consequences of outsourcing our decision-making to technology, the difficulty so many people are having with intimate relationships, and not losing connection to nature, ourselves, and each other. ____________________ 0:00 Intro 2:24 AI, Anthropomorphism, Validation Vortex 8:28 The Black Box and Critical Thinking 17:21 Why Struggle Builds the Mind 22:03 Doubt, Consciousness, What Makes Us Human 27:50 Attention, Overstimulation, and Learned ADHD 34:39 Childhood, Boredom, and Creativity 45:09 Resilience, Parenting, and a Tougher World 48:17 AI Companions and the Future of Relationships 52:12 Dating Apps, Passion, and Lasting Love 1:01:36 Escaping Intimacy in a World of Instant Rewards 1:06:00 Hypersexualization and Modern Culture 1:12:16 Slowing Down and Reclaiming Everyday Life 1:14:57 Who Benefits From Technology? 1:24:29 Human Connection, Agency, and Choosing Your Path ____________________ 下载节目文字版: Episode Transcripts (https://pan.baidu.com/s/1ZEPdEDTv71Tq3N_Er_FOpw?pwd=THD1) ____________________ If you enjoy this show don't forget to leave a rating and subscribe! 小红书: THD The Honest Drink Follow Us On IG: @thehonestdrink_ Join Us On WeChat: THD_Official 合作: sponsor@thdpod.com Find us on: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, 小宇宙, 喜马拉雅, 网易云音乐, 小红书, Bilibili or anywhere you get your podcasts. 前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动 (https://www.xiaoyuzhoufm.com/episode/6ad74897f80d9814a6e13040?utm_source=rss&as=cHQ9MTIyNjE5MjQ3JmN0PWFwcGxlcG9kY2FzdF9zaG93bm90ZXMmbXQ9OA%3D%3D)

   #196- Yaling Jiang: Through Chinese Eyes

   Yaling Jiang is a writer and researcher helping people understand China through real individuals, rather than through headlines or stereotypes. Yaling is a former journalist and translator and founder of the popular newsletter Following the Yuan. She is also the founder of the research and strategy consultancy ApertureChina. Today, Yaling joins us to talk about what it really means to explain China to the outside world—and why seeing Chinese people as individuals matters. We talk about what it’s like to have your country, your culture, and your own identity be misunderstood. We also talk about the growing desire among Chinese women to have more control over the lives they choose to live. We talk about dating, marriage, motherhood, gender expectations and the fear of becoming “leftover”. We explore how younger generations are challenging traditional norms and whether China’s changing social attitudes are pointing toward a more equal future. We also talk about the loneliness of a world that feels increasingly divided, and Yaling’s hope that we can learn to see each other as individuals rather than stereotypes. It’s a conversation about identity, agency, belonging—and the fragile hope that we might find our way back to each other. ____________________ 00:00 Name pronunciation 02:40 Yaling’s mission: human stories about China 11:30 Growing up in a globalized China 14:00 Gender, ambition, and what Chinese women want 18:00 Dating in Shanghai and the numbers problem 23:00 “Leftover women” and changing expectations 32:50 Are gender norms actually changing? 39:00 Marriage, birth rates, and who carries the cost 44:00 Egg freezing as a safety net 49:00 Dating across cultures 55:00 History, race, and the “inferiority complex” 63:00 Asian representation in Western film and TV 71:00 Race and identity from China to the UK 79:00 Being called “banana” 85:00 Assimilation and the trauma of belonging 94:00 Empathy as the takeaway 98:00 Outro ____________________ 下载节目文字版: Episode Transcripts (https://pan.baidu.com/s/1ZEPdEDTv71Tq3N_Er_FOpw?pwd=THD1) ____________________ If you enjoy this show don't forget to leave a rating and subscribe! 小红书: THD The Honest Drink Follow Us On IG: @thehonestdrink_ Join Us On WeChat: THD_Official 合作: sponsor@thdpod.com Find us on: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, 小宇宙, 喜马拉雅, 网易云音乐, 小红书, Bilibili or anywhere you get your podcasts. 前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动 (https://www.xiaoyuzhoufm.com/episode/6abb85af195d838e2aeb9289?utm_source=rss&as=cHQ9MTIyNjE5MjQ3JmN0PWFwcGxlcG9kY2FzdF9zaG93bm90ZXMmbXQ9OA%3D%3D)
