Behind the Mic on Double Ten: Hosting National Day Live
Journalist Leslie Liao pulls back the curtain on anchoring Taiwan’s National Day broadcast — three hours of live performances, ceremony, and the president’s address. He shares how he and co-host Betty Chen prep to narrate the action, weave in context for global viewers, and pivot as cameras cut from honor guards and flyovers to student performances and the giant flag pass.
Hear why timing, teamwork, and a stack of paper notes still matter — and get a preview of Leslie’s feature on how Double Ten evolved from military parade to culture-forward celebration.
Watch the related feature: “The History of Taiwan’s National Day.”
