This episode features four stories told during the Taipei Story Slam event in May, all on the theme “on thin ice.” We aired this one November 6th. We’re going to be running a new hour long program every Thursday night at 9 PM this November.

Episode two will air November 13th; the theme next week will be “coming home.” Don’t Miss it! Listen through your radio, or catch the live stream online on the front page of ICRT’s website.

This week’s big question

We put the same question to each story teller: “In Taiwan, what puts you on thin ice?” What about you? Is it Shaky Chinese skills? Unfamiliar foods? New etiquette to learn? Or if you’re Taiwanese, what puts you on thin ice when you travel abroad? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

The show

Get to know Taiwan’s vibrant international community with ICRT’s new story telling segment, HereSay, with host Keith Menconi, every Thursday night at 9pm this November. The show will feature live story telling from Taipei Story Slam events from both expat and local residents of Taiwan.

Through live storytelling and interviews with Taiwan residents, HereSay explores the Taiwan experience and brings the voice of Taiwan’s international community right to your radio. Catch the broadcast or the podcast for some laughs, some nail-biting drama, and some heartbreak all from the real life experiences of your friends and neighbors in Taiwan.

Catch it online

In addition to the embed on this page, you can also find the full audio for the show on the Taiwan Talk podcast stream. Check it out on ICRT’s iTunes stream, and on our website.
