Chinese Radio Am1450

Have not listening to Mr Sun Light for a while. Just turn to AM 1450 at 2:30pm. His partner asked him how to save the economy. He said to encourage people to work and invest. His partner asked why people don’t understand him. He said majority of people cannot reach his level. I can’t stop myself from laughing. He claimed to have a Economy degree. Everything is driven by demand. If there is no demand, what the point of looking for a job and investing. He is right, he is so dumb that majority of people won’t above his level.

Tuned into Chinese (Cantonese) radio AM1450 one late afternoon this week, to hear one of the station’s DJs talking about his group tour travel experiences to Thailand and China. At first I thought it was a travel show, then he talked about sensitive stomachs and the science (and common sense) of eating abroad and digestion… hmmm travel with medical facts?
Well not really, it ended up being a series of diarrhea stories.
Good thing this was before dinner and in the car.
Some highlights from the radio show segment:
— if the folks in your tour group tour all have stomach/​bowel problems after a group dinner, then likely it was food poisoning.
— if on the other hand, you are the only one who ended up having stomach/​bowel problems after a group tour meal, then you have a sensitive stomach (and literally shit outta luck)
— just because you are young (and perhaps naiive), does not mean you are invulnerable from eating a foreign country’s cooked food
— the young and foolhardy member of the DJ’s group tour was at one of the stops in China, at some remote village in the boonies, and saw roadside roast chicken from a street food vendor. Tons of locals were lining up to buy the stuff. The sucker thought «dood, dat chit looks GOOD. Well my spider sense tells me it is fully cooked… must’ve killed hella germs, should be ok!». Poor young hipster didn’t realise the stomach linings of the locals were already enhanced with bulletproof steel, they could eat all the germs they want and are already immune. The DJ commented this doofus hipster ended up «hitting the throne» upwards of 50 times in 24 hours (all diarrhea of course) after downing half a chicken. There was also a comment about the guy’s face turning pale (or pale blue) after all those trips to the throne.
Moral of the story: know thy body, and the risks you take with eating foreign cooked foods, vegetables, and produce. It is really no fun spending $$$$ traveling to enjoy the sights, sounds, smells, culture, soaking in the scenery when one mistake you take in through your mouth and into your stomach, resulting you desperately looking for the porcelain crapper every 10 minutes (spending more time on the throne than being out and about).
Four stars for this radio station’s random entertainment when it is really entertaining. Definitely better than those infomercial segments on «how to eat like a gourmet wisely» that are blatant promo advertisements for 2 to 3 star restaurants…
