This is episode 3, "The American Birthday, Part 2 (English)"

The American Birthday

This podcast explores American culture, society and traditions, with contrasts to Chinese culture and perspectives.  We'll talk about little things like birthdays and holidays, and we'll dive deep into concepts like family, the American Dream, individualism, religion, politics and the Wild West. We all know you cannot separate language from culture: you must understand and appreciate both. Each episode is in Mandarin first, which is then repeated in English in the next episode. You'll learn something if you are an American learning Mandarin, or Chinese learning English, or just curious about the next generation's understanding of America society. This is a program by the American Chinese Intercultural Friendship Society.
The primary purpose of the American Chinese Intercultural Friendship Society (ACIFS) is to promote intercultural understanding, friendship, appreciation and love for and among the American and Chinese peoples throughout the world.

作为一个普通的美国人, 我会谈论美国文化和社会的诸多形成因素。 我会解释一些小话题，例如美国的传统和节日。但同时我们也会深入讨论诸如 "美国梦"、"狂野的西方", 甚至宗教和政治等大话题。首先，我会用普通话做节目，接下来再用英语复述播客。无论你是想要学习普通话的美国人,，还是希望学习英语的中国人，我都希望这对你有所裨益。
美中人夸文化的友社会(ACIFS) 的主要目的是促进跨文化理解,在世界各地的美中两国人民之间的友谊, 欣赏和爱。
