Welcome to the special Chinese New Year episode of REMORANDOM. It’s the Year of the Horse. Here’s what we chatted about: Have you heard of Kowloon Walled City? Up until the 1980s, over 50,000 people lived inside a space of just 2.6 hectares, making it the most densely populated place on earth. It’s an interesting story. 📍 US President Trump loves putting his name on things. No monument is safe. Not even Mount Rushmore. Might The Donald muscle his way onto that revered crop of granite? We’ll give you some history. 📍 Still on the subject of Chinese culture, we look at baoding balls. You know those musical metal balls that you sometimes see people rolling around in their hands? 📍 And finally, in this episode, however BIG you are hoping to make your marriage proposal in this performative age of viral one-upmanship. You are gonna to have a tough time topping a Japanese artist known as Yassan. Put it this way, skywriting is no longer gonna get you there.
