When Japan took control of Taiwan in 1895, it inherited a financial mess: a chaotic mix of chopped silver, copper cash, and foreign coins. The new colony also cost far more to subdue and administer than it brought in. Yet during that demanding first decade, able administrators such as Gotō Shinpei turned things around, bringing monetary order and eventual profitability. The United States took notice. In its own new colony, the Philippines, American officials followed Taiwan's monetary reforms and even came to study its opium monopoly, a system designed to reduce addiction while also funding the colonial government (opium was initially the single largest source of revenue). Eryk and John, channeling their inner opium fiend and colonial ruler, demonstrate how this system worked on the ground.Please leave a comment or review.

Marta Rothe po 20 latach życia w Niemczech zdecydowała się wrócić do Polski. Wraz z mężem Erykiem i synem Emilem zaczęli nowe życie pod Zieloną Górą. Czy tęsknota za rodziną i "byciem u siebie" wynagradza biurokratyczne wyzwania i trudy adaptacji w nowym-starym domu. Zapraszają Monika Sędzierska i Adam Gusowski KONTAKT: cosmopopolsku@rbb-online.de STRONA: http://www.wdr.de/k/cosmopopolsku BĄDŹ NA BIEŻĄCO: https://www.facebook.com/cosmopopolsku Von Adam Gusowski.

Pioneering researcher, physician and historical novelist Dr Chen Yao-chang passed away at the age of 76 on November 17. He will be deeply missed by family and friends. John and Eryk had the pleasure of getting to know this kind and talented man through our publishing wing, Plum Rain Press. Our first book in fact was the English-language edition of his breakout novel, A Tale of Three Tribes in Dutch Formosa. (wonderfully translated by He Wen-ching.)In this special episode, you'll hear a recording from the highly-recommended podcast Books on Asia – With Amy Chavez, (the Formosa Files team recorded a ⁠BOA episode on “Three Tribes”⁠ in October '25), and snippets from a chat Eryk and Dr. Chen had back in June 2024. Rest in peace, Dr. Chen... and thank you.

In this Bits & Pieces episode, John makes Eryk read some cringe-inducing lines from a guide to “the women of the Orient.” Then, they set off on one of history's strangest adventures: the world-spanning voyage of “Half-Safe,” an amphibious jeep that drove and floated its way to Kaohsiung in 1958.Do us a favor: rate the show, leave a review on our website or Apple podcasts, and/or follow us on social media.

Inspired by Taichung's recent hosting of the World Bird Fair, Eryk and John explore Taiwan's rich avian diversity and look at bird omens, bird gambling, and bird superstitions. Star species make cameo appearances, but it's the humble chicken that gets the spotlight in this episode… and the chopping board! (Apologies for Eryk's fondness for certain sound effects). The beheading of chickens at temples was once a common folk judicial ritual – yes, oaths of legal innocence were sworn before temple gods with the aid of feathered sacrifices. Sounds a bit gruesome, but trust us; it's a fun episode. We swear it before the City God (whack!). Follow, comment, like, share - let others know about the program. Thanks!

Travel with Eryk and John as they explore Taiwan using the 1967 edition of a long-forgotten guidebook: The Golden Guide to South & East Asia. Taiwan was then a new travel destination full of rewards for the tourist willing to get off the beaten path. Listen and learn what you can take into the country (half a pound of pipe tobacco) and what you can't (roulette wheel). Find out where to visit, shop, eat and stay. Feast on Mongolian barbecue, visit a “hideous” giant statue, find the girlie bars unknown to the GIs, and go fishing without leaving your hotel.

On this episode of the Charlotte FC Podcast, we sit down with midfielder Eryk Williamson to talk through the chapters of his career and life so far—from growing up in Alexandria, VA, to his development at Maryland and DC United's academy, to his time in Portugal and Portland, and now his move to Charlotte. Eryk opens up about his personal style and love for sneakers, the influence of mentors like Miles Joseph, overcoming two ACL injuries, and why Charlotte's culture and locker room made it the right place for his next step. Off the pitch, he shares his passions for coffee, movies, and life with his dog in a new city.

You've read his work (or you should); this awesome guy has been pumping out informative weekly history columns (and now YouTube videos) for close to a decade. His name is Han Cheung (learn how to pronounce that by listening to this interview), and he went from being one of the only Asian-Americans in a small town in Wyoming - where he wrote for a local newspaper about the history of that state's Wild West era - to returning to his parents' adopted home of Taiwan to write "Taiwan in Time." It's been quite a journey for Han, and in this interview, we talk about everything from history to "slow death metal" with half-Cantonese lyrics. Enjoy! PS: Sorry for the delay in release. Eryk caught some covid-adjacent flu and was unable to move. Gratefully, Eryk is feeling better, but Eryk is still referring to himself in the third person, which history shows isn't such a good idea.
