Drum Tower

China from the inside, reported by two correspondents who cover it for a living.

Weekly

Drum Tower is the China show, and the one I'd most like to map. Jeremy Page and Sarah Wu move between politics, the economy, technology, and culture, often inside a single episode.

Tracking

A tracking idea.

What I’d find interesting is the recurring themes: which China topics come back across politics, the economy, tech, and the country’s reach abroad. I’ve catalogued the episodes; I haven’t drawn the map yet.
