This week's edition of This American Life is quite the listen.

It's about Americans who live in China and their perceptions/thoughts.

good podcast.

i like kaiser's story but i thought his belgrade moment, or whatever they called it, was extremely belated.

it's kind of easy to pick up on the attitudes of chinese nationals towards foreigners. this is especially true if you're chinese-american. no matter how subtle it is, you are by no means one of them. the possible exception would be if you grew up in china and moved away during childhood or as a teen.

I wonder though if that's exclusive to Chinese? The deal with this exclusion, I mean.
