Summary by author Charlotte:

I believe that most of the female audiences of this podcast would remember when we hide ourselves in a narrow space to change our pads or tampons, to flush the evidence of menstruation away carefully and secretly like we are concealing some evidence of a crime. It is true that menstruation has always played a negative role in human history. Putting on a dialectical and contrastive lens, we are going to find what is menstruation in Chinese and American culture, which represent both Eastern and Western civilizations and what is people’s attitude towards it in these two countries from two ends of the globe.

Summary by author Lucy:

In recent years, mental illness has gradually become an important factor affecting people's mental health, and media reports on mental illness are also increasing. There is a persistent prejudice against these persons with mental illness. Most people’s image of them is always violent, emotional, and excited. Especially when the words “mental illness” appears in the information provided by the media, and it is associated with the information of hurting others and behaving strangely, people have a more negative view of mental illness, and even have a negative attitude of fear and rejection to the mental illness patients. Some mental illness people are even afraid to express their mental health status for fear of discrimination and prejudice. Mental illness stigmatization continues to be an issue of concern. Mental illness stigma is a widespread phenomenon that occurs in every country. People need to look at mental illness correctly, and people with mental health conditions should get more care instead of discrimination.

Summary by Gina:

In  this  podcast,  I  will  share  some  public  understanding  of  AIDS.  And  the  common misconception—the stigma of AIDS and its causes are the major focus. In this process, the  differences  between  China  and  the  United  States  in  this  social  problem  will  be compared, so as to better understand the impact of this problem on AIDS patients and put forward corresponding measures. In addition, the inclusion of interview clips not only strengthens the persuasive force of the explanation but also makes the audience feel the importance of the issue more directly.

Summary by author Julia:

This podcast starts from a scene in an American hospice and then leads to the topic-- terminal  disease  and  death  in  China  and  the  U.S.  After  shortly  introducing  the definition  of  terminal  disease/illness  in  both  cultures,  the  podcast  mainly  focuses  on the  “honesty”  of  the  family  with  a  terminal  disease  patient.  Chinese  families  tend  to tell “white lies” to the patient while American families are more direct. This is caused by the difference between collectivist and individualist societies.

Summary by author Rebecca:

Compare with America, patients with depression in China has disadvantaged conditions now. The number of patients with depression in China is increasing in these years. In China, patients do not get enough attention from the society. Medical treatment on depression mainly is based on western medicines system but not Chinese herbology. Also, there are still many misunderstandings in the public opinions towards depression in China. Therefore, Chinese government should notice it and take related measures to deal with this condition.
