What are the struggles of Chinese men? | Chinese Podcast

Описание: Feeling the weight of the world? You're not alone. In this candid and deeply personal conversation, the men of Dashu Mandarin (大叔中文) open up about the everyday struggles and "pains" (痛苦) that many of us, especially within a Chinese cultural context, grapple with.

From the complexities and frustrations of the modern workplace, navigating office politics and cross-cultural team dynamics (Uncle Ben's story), to the profound anxieties surrounding health, aging, and the impermanence of life (Uncle Can's reflections sparked by a colleague's illness and his own aging parents), this episode touches on universal themes. We also hear Uncle Richard's experience supporting his brother through a health scare, highlighting the common fear of doctors and the relief that can come from facing issues head-on.
