This is an episode from the vault! I recorded this episode with Michael back in mid 2021 and never released it because it took me a long time to edit. I am so glad to be able to release it as my first interview of 2022!


In this interview, Michael tells me all about his youth, how he ended up living in China, what its like to live in China as a Canadian, his time teaching Film Studies at a University in China, the amazing places that he has travelled to, and what life in North Korea is really like based on films he has seen and literature he has read.


This is one of my favourite interviews and I learned so much about Chinese culture and lifestyles. This was not the topic that Michael actually came on the podcast to originally discuss but I had the best time chatting with him either way! I know that you will all enjoy this episode too.
