Paul’s introduction into China’s strong IV scene was no walk in the park. Arthur takes on an English private car park in a duel to the death. A listener asks if documentary ethical standards are still a thing. Another one asks if she should stay with her demanding but fulfilling job, or transition to something easier.

People change, things change
This week, Paul and Arthur talk about the phrase "不让" especially when it comes to 分手ing (whether or not your partner has to agree to you breaking up with them). And they answer questions about bringing biscuits to a friend's house, dealing with chatty clients, and whether or not AI will change the creative industries.

Noisy Neighbor, Couple in Conflict
On this inaugural episode of 《The Overshare 飞天胡说》, Arthur and Paul start with a discussion of Singer 2024, a singing competition that caused controversy online when foreigners took first and second place. Paul is confused by the premise of artistic competition and argues against bizarre claims made in this Global Times article (https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202405/1312191.shtml) about the competition.
This week’s questions touch on early childhood education, pesky neighbors, difficult conversations with older folks about illness, attachment theory in romantic relationships (https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E4%BE%9D%E9%99%84%E7%90%86%E8%AE%BA%EF%BC%88%E5%BF%83%E7%90%86%E5%AD%A6%EF%BC%89/2229247), and living far from home.
