很久以前，交通不便。就是有这么一些人，他们不愿意收到交通，地理的限制，一马当先，游历四海，成为著名的旅行家。张骞就是这样的一个人。他走过的路，今人叫做：丝绸之路。 Long ago when transportation wasn't advanced, a group of people defied the limitations of transportation and geography. They set out for far, and travelled the oceans. They were great travelers. Zhang Qian is one of them. The road that he took is what we call "the Silk Road" today. ◉ NEW: TeaTime News 茶歇新闻 on Spotify ◉ Read transcripts for free ◉ Support us on Patreon ◉ One-time Donation ◉ Find us on YouTube ◉ We are on LinkedIn ◉ We are on Facebook
What it is
Nathan covers substantive topics — history, food, internet culture, current life in China — in simple but adult Mandarin, which is rare: most learner podcasts are either childish or too fast. Episodes are free on all podcast apps; transcripts and vocabulary lists are a paid extra. The pacing is deliberately slower than natural speech, so use it as a bridge rather than a final destination.
Episodes are played straight from the publisher's feed — nothing is hosted here, and the five newest are whatever the feed served when this page was last built. All Chinese (Mandarin) podcasts →
