Honorable Mention: "Beijing's Great Leap Forward"listened to this on a flight back to Beijing this summer. Go ah and guess where my first stop in Beijing was.

Also, thumbing through the sizable Sinica catalogue, surprised by the dearth, and I may have missed them, of music/yaogun-related episodes! Any chance of getting Jonathan Campbell on the show?

@mmurphy: Someday "Birds of Beijing and the Air They Fly In" might have to be changed to "Birds of Beijing and the Air They Walk On."

I'm relatively new to your podcast - probably 2 years back and still catching up. I've never left comment in here so this is a way overdue thank you! Great show guys, you and one of your recommendations 7th Project Avenue are my TV/Radio substitue! The depth and broadth of each discussion is amazing.

My top 5 is:

1. Will China Dominate the 21st Century

2. China in Three Keys: first experiences from the 1970s through 1990s

3. Under the Dome

4. Sinica Goes to the Movies

5. From the Interpreter's Booth - the guests' voices are just so lovely, I can listen to Lynette talk about anything.
