Patreon Early Access - The Challenges of Having an Asian face in China

Okay, so this week's early access tackles a familiar topic (I've been covering the whole topic of what American Chinese people think of China and living here) but this time C-milk and I talk about our past experiences, the Asians we know that have come to work or live in China, people who have grown up in different cultures around the world View Post

Conquering Northern China, a real possibility

I have a rule, and that rule is not to ask for money, especially from the people who already so generously support me here on Patreon. And I won't, but what I will do is let you all know that our Kickstarter campaign for Conquering Northern China is live! Those of you who watched Conquering Southern China  said you wanted longer episodes, mor...

Hey there guys, here's your early access to the upcoming Off the Bikes episode about The craziness of traffic in China and how you actually don't need to own a car to get around in China, I recently did that epic 10,000 mile road trip through the USA and so I can really give some good comparisons between driving in the West and China, enjo...

Conquering Northern China in conception

Hey there guys, I'm sure you've noticed that the videos have been a bit slow this week, that's because the producer and director/cameramen of my TV show Conquering Southern China flew down from Beijing to make a video with me and C-milk here, It has been a non stop filming of B-roll, promo and planning/eating/filming/walking/drinking/nonsense sort...

Patreon early access: China Hates Motorcycles!

Good morning! C-milk and I are currently on an adventure, we rode 400kms through two of China's Southern provinces to an interesting mountain range, taking videos along the way! In this video we talk about how dangerous it is to ride a motorcycle in China, and it's mainly due to the fact that most people here consider motorcyclists to be sub-human and low ...

Sasha tries Panda Express! (Early Patreon Access)

C-milk and I have decided to make a few similar videos whilst in the States, but rather than cover the exact same topics, we've decided to mix it up a little (of corse it's fairly difficult for me to film on the road but I'll make a plan, and C-milk has to juggle family time and sitting around at home too). This first set of videos is about how ou...

Hey there guys, This week's ADVchina exlusive preview is still being edited by myself here in my hotel room (it's brutal, we had issues with audio and C-milk had to re-record a lot of his lines and it's all out of sync, and his gopro file was sent through Chinese apps which keep crashing.... please be patient as I'll have it up as soon as I possibly can).

Patreon Exclusive Access #11 - China will misunderstand you!

Why is there so much hate in the comments section of my videos, C-milk's videos and ADVchina's videos? Surely Chinese people aren't all this rude and hostile? Correct! It's mainly knee-jerk responses brought on by firstly a misunderstanding and secondly an almost unbelievable inability of many Chinese people to accept any opinion that does...

Patreon Exclusive Access #7 - Why is nothing Maintained in China?

If you've ever visited China, you'll notice that buildings although new look rather shabby, the paint usually looks old and damaged, there is a lot of rust, you'll see people riding really old and knackered bicycles etc, so why is this?

Thank you Tucson!

Tuscon was amazing, the weather was perfect (cool breezes at night, warm days and blue skies), I spent most of my time getting the car ready for the long trip ahead, and with the help of my friend Dan, got the registration, insurance and all that jazz squared away. The subscriber meetup was particularly fantastic and I feel really honoured to have...
