The Bridge

We ask Dr. Michael Dunford from UK about the emerging multipolar world order. He explains how China’s rise is the most important development since 1492. We discuss China’s economy and the fall of the North Atlantic empires.

What can the U.S. learn from China's economic model? Dr. Yan Liang, economist at Willamette University and the Levy Economics Institute, cuts through Western media narratives to reveal the real story behind China's housing market, savings culture, and AI boom. From a carefully managed property correction to open-source AI that's shaking Silicon Valley's investment bubble, this conversation challenges conventional wisdom—and offers a surprising case for American cooperation over confrontation.

We ask economist Dr. Warwick Powell why Western media misunderstands China’s economy. Why have decades of reporting on China in the West missed the picture? We tell you exactly why they just don't get it.

American youtuber and business commentator Cyrus Janssen joins the show to discuss how China has changed over his 20 years coming here. We talk robots, industrial clusters, AI and getting into business in the fastest growing major economy in the world.

Daniel Dumbrill, a Canadian businessman and YouTuber, joins the show. A frequent traveler to China's minority regions, he offers an honest assessment of the current state of Tibetan language, culture, and religion, as well as the conditions of Uygurs, Mongolians, and other ethnic groups across the country's vast expanse.

Our Beijing based guest Beibei joins the show to discuss the viewpoint of Chinese people on China, the CPC and China’s rise. She discusses her youth in Wuhan, moving to the USA, and her return to China. We ask her about what Chinese people think about China’s rise.

Economist and journalist Ben Norton explains how even the USA is preparing to copy China’s industrial policy model. We ask him about China’s role in global development, and whether the US stock market may collapse.

Joining us today is Fernando Munoz Bernal, a Colombian influencer who has lived in China since 2000. He talks about how China has changed, and what Chinese people really think about their government.
