Chan’s Mouth

News EN ↓ 15 episodes

I'm Manila Chan. Former anchor at RT America. This podcast covers random news stories that didn't make air for various reasons. So we'll pick up where my show left off, or fill in the gaps on stories regular people are talking about. We'll go from pop culture to foreign policy! UNAFFILIATED with RT in any way, this is my personal project - inspired by many viewers who asked for more exploration of certain topics. You'll get my opinion here that you didn't see on TV on topics I'm interested in. Consider this the "B Sides." See more at ManilaChan.com + https://substack.com/@manilachan

WAR CRIMINAL TALK 15.04.2022

Censorship, comedy, and anti-war don’t mix 07.03.2022

To be or not to be…a journalist!? 15.08.2021

It’s back to school season! Many people, young and old, are curious about the field of journalism. I’ve recently had many young people ask me about journalism and how to get started in this industry.
