I recently spoke with Michael Fahey about some developments on human rights related issues in Taiwan, including the anticipated ruling by Taiwan's constitutional court on the Death Penalty. Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/recently-debated-human-rights-issues-in-taiwan-a-conversation-with-michael-fahey-ep-294/ We spoke on September 16th and Taiwan's constitutional court made its ruling on September 20th. At the time I had spoken to Michael about a campaign and online petition to expand access to dual nationality for long-term foreign permanent residents of Taiwan. To learn more about that check out episode 293. Michael is an American lawyer and resident of Taipei since 1988. He is foreign counsel at Formosa Transnational (萬國) and also founder of Forward Taiwan.   Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/recently-debated-human-rights-issues-in-taiwan-a-conversation-with-michael-fahey-ep-294/

Did you know that there is a campaign underway in Taiwan that is calling for foreign permanent residents to be able to apply for dual nationality, effectively allowing them to obtain Taiwanese citizenship after 5 years without giving up their original passport?   Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/dual-nationality-for-long-term-permanent-residents-of-taiwan-discussion-with-michael-fahey-ep-293/   An online petition for this proposal was launched on August 19th and they are trying to collect 5,000 signatures to support it by October 19th: https://join.gov.tw/idea/detail/951c745d-4484-4923-953f-4cdaefe7f344   I recently spoke with Michael Fahey, about this campaign which was initiated by Crossroads and Forward Taiwan. We talked about many of the most common concerns raised by a proposal like this, given the sensitive position that Taiwan is in due to the threats it faces from the PRC (People's Republic of China).   Michael is an American lawyer and resident of Taipei since 1988. He is foreign counsel at Formosa Transnational (萬國) and also founder of Forward Taiwan.   If you'd like to sign the online petition to expand access to dual nationality for long-term foreign permanent residents of Taiwan, please note a few things:   1)    In order to be able to sign the petition you must be a citizen of Taiwan or holder of an A(P)RC (Alien Permanent Resident Certificate) and have a Taiwan mobile number. 2)    When filling out the petition form it's best to use a computer not a smart phone but have your phone nearby and have patience when going through the process.  3)    Whether or not you are personally able to sign the petition, please consider also sharing this with friends, family or colleagues who would and are able to support it.   Here's a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode: ·       How the proposal to expand access to dual nationality for long-term foreign permanent residents of Taiwan came about ·       The case of Michael Boyden, a British citizen and permanent resident of Taiwan ·       How Taiwan's nationality law was drafted in the 1920s and how it compares with other countries laws on nationality ·       How Taiwan's nationality law is not symmetrical for native-born Taiwanese and naturalizing foreign citizens ·       How expanding access to dual nationality for long-term foreign permanent residents of Taiwan could make Taiwan more resilient ·       How immigration could be a way to deal with Taiwan becoming a super-aged society ·       Concerns about whether this proposal will make it easier PRC (People's Republic of China) citizens to immigrate to Taiwan and become citizens ·       PRC (People's Republic of China) citizens are governed by a different law; the act for the relations between peoples of the mainland and the Taiwan region ·       The proposal is to change the nationality law not the act for the relations between peoples of the mainland and the Taiwan region ·       How to handle concerns about PRC citizens who've naturalized in third countries using their foreign citizenship to come and naturalize in Taiwan ·       How the fear that crime would go up is unfounded because foreign nationals in Taiwan commit crimes at a rate of 50 percent of the native population ·       What exactly is being proposed ·       The procedure for foreign permanent residents in Taiwan to obtain dual Taiwanese citizenship ·       The types of people and special cases that have been granted dual Taiwanese citizenship ·       The standards required for foreign permanent residents in Taiwan to be granted dual Taiwanese citizenship ·       Cases of foreign permanent residents in Taiwan that applied and failed to attain dual Taiwanese citizenship ·       How the process to get the nationality law amended could actually be a very long process that could take 5-20 years ·       Arguments for and against the proposal ·       How people who wish to sign the online petition must be citizens of Taiwan and have a Taiwan mobile number ·       When filling out the petition it's best to do so on a computer and not on a smart phone, but to keep your mobile phone nearby ·       Have patience in filling out the online petition form because the interface is a bit difficult to use ·       How foreign permanent residents can't get household registration and how that limits them ·       Reasons people would like to get dual Taiwanese citizenship ·       How to deal with individuals who have dual nationalities ·       How male citizens of Taiwan under the age of 36 are required to serve in the military ·       How Taiwan could take steps to ensure that people serve in the military   Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/dual-nationality-for-long-term-permanent-residents-of-taiwan-discussion-with-michael-fahey-ep-293/

"Some folks thought The Wans were dead in the water. I like to think we were in hibernation,” says lead singer Simon Kerr of the Nashville based rock band, The Wans. Described as sounding “like The Stooges having a baby with Stone Temple Pilots” by Classic Rock Magazine, the group are welcoming their highly-anticipated fourth LP Magical Touch, which includes 11 songs that showcase a refreshing new approach that is sure to perk up your ears. Magical Touch will be released on July 26, 2023, which is exactly 11 years to the date of their first release.The Wans' new eleven-song LP, Magical Touch, was co-produced, recorded and mixed by Michael Fahey at Starbird Sound in Nashville using vintage recording equipment and recorded live with minimal overdubs. With two new additions to the band, Akshay Narang and Noah Denney, it was sure to add to the expansion of the sonic qualities. Noah Denney, formerly of Tyler Bryant and The Shakedown and who originally played bass in The Wans, now sits behind the drums. “The new sound is so exciting for me. We've known Akshay for over a decade and bonded over everything from Nine Inch Nails to Depeche Mode so it was only natural to ask him to play some synth and guitar with the band.”, says Kerr.The hard-touring Wans have been on the rise for a while now, playing major festivals like Austin City Limits, Voodoo Fest, Forecastle and Hangout Fest, and sharing bills with Pearl Jam, Beck, and Queens of the Stone Age. They recorded their 2014 album He Said She Said, with Grammy-winning producer Dave Cobb (Jason Isbell, Chris Stapleton, Rival Sons), the acclaimed record landed them press at USA Today, NME, Consequence of Sound, The AV Club, and more. Not only that, the band's music has been featured everywhere from major motion picture Point Break and TV shows like Nashville, Longmire, and Necessary Roughness to a powerhouse commercial for BMW'S 4 Series Gran Coupe, which was soundtracked by the band's muscular riff rocker "Black Pony."“This record feels like my novella, a journey similar to Steinbecks ‘East of Eden'. It took 4 years to write and a week to record.” says Kerr. There's no doubt that The Wans wore their influences proudly on their sleeves, like Queens of the Stone Age and Nirvana, but this record feels more precise and like nothing we've heard before from the band. There are certainly hints of 80's and 90's Brit-Pop influences, but the songwriting has become more focused and that's not an overthought.” Kerr continues, “My dad, Tony Kerr, has been my main songwriting partner since I was 16. Some Father-Son's bond over fishing, but we bond over writing songs. It's become effortless when we write together.”Bassist Thomas Bragg states, “Simon and I have been so excited with what's going on in the Irish/British music scene in the last few years. Bands like Idles and Fontaines D.C have made some of the best records of the last decade and I think that definitely had an effect on our music and this record.”The Wans' have always shared a brotherhood and love for making rock n' roll, which is much needed in today's overall climate and music scene. Lyrically, this record purposefully radiates self-awareness, love, and togetherness. “The Wans' are everything to me. When it comes to the song's they're all we have.” says Kerr. The great Joe Strummer once said, “People have got to stop pretending they're not in the world. It's time to take that humanity back into the center of the ring and follow that for a time. Think on that. Without people you're nothing.”Host - Trey MitchellIG - treymitchellphotography   IG - feeding_the_senses_unsensoredFB - facebook.com/profile.php?id=100074368084848

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   Taiwan's Employment Gold Card program has come up in several past episodes of Talking Taiwan. I've been wanting to bring someone on to talk about what it is, who might be eligible for it and how to apply for it.

Michael is co-founder of Forward Taiwan, an organization founded to improve Taiwan's immigration laws as they pertain to foreign professionals.     Here's a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   How people may consider Taiwan small but with its population of 23 million people it could be compared to one of the U.S.'s largest states or a mid-sized European country What is the Taiwan Gold Card How the Taiwan Employment Gold Card is a four-in-one card: visa, work permit, resident permit, and re-entry permit, that is valid for three years After three years Gold Card holders who have been in Taiwan for an average of 183 days can apply for permanent residency in Taiwan How there was an increase in Gold Cards issued during the pandemic The government of Taiwan's goal of getting to 10,000 Gold Cards issued by the end of the year and a long-term goal of having 100,000 foreign professionals in Taiwan by 2030 How to apply for a Gold Card The eight fields that people can apply to in order to obtain a Gold Card The special category of consultation for those who don't fit in to any of the eight fields What documentation needs to be provided in order to apply for a Gold Card The importance of providing objective evidence of your professional accomplishments (e.g. an award, a measurable accomplishment) 60% of Gold Card holders have qualified by meeting the salary qualification in the economy field The type of work that Gold Card holders can seek while in Taiwan Singapore's Employment Pass program and the backlash it's gotten from Singaporean citizens Recent changes to the Gold Card program including the requirement for applying for permanent residence was lowered from five years to three years and different tax incentives Changes to ordinary work permit requirements which previously required both a college degree and two years of related experience The American Chamber of Commerce Taiwan Business Topics publication Useful resources for people applying for a Gold Card including: the Taiwan National Development Council's website Foreign Talent, the Taiwan Employment Gold Card Office Help Desk, Taiwan EZ Permit The challenges faced by some Gold Card holders in finding employment in Taiwan It's not necessary to speak Chinese to live and work in Taiwan If there is something missing or incomplete with a Gold Card application, you will have 30 days to rectify it Currently Gold Card applications are taking 4-6 weeks to get approved What happens if someone's application for the Gold Card is not accepted The most competitive sub field under arts and culture is popular music/TV/movies Special considerations for people wanting to live and work in Taiwan Considering places to live in Taiwan other than Taipei Michael's work with Forward Taiwan How Forward Taiwan is working on access to dual nationality for people naturalizing as Taiwanese citizens How Michael is transitioning to working on migrant workers issues The most meaningful accomplishments of Forward Taiwan: an increased number of countries that Taiwan has working holiday agreements with, making it easier for graduates of Taiwanese universities to stay and live and work in Taiwan How the National Development Council came up with Taiwan's Gold Card program and modeled it after Singapore's Employment Pass program Taiwan's independent artist work permit   Related Links: To view all related links for this article, click link below: https://talkingtaiwan.com/michael-fahey-of-forward-taiwan-talks-about-the-gold-card-program-ep-182/

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   A few months ago, before Taiwan went on COVID alert level 3, I spoke with Michael Turton, about biking around Taiwan. I remember when there was a push to make Taiwan more bike-friendly and it became popular for people to bike around the island or along the coast. Michael shared why he loves biking around Taiwan and how it is one of the best places to bike in the world. Surprisingly he advised avoiding cycling route number 1, which is the bicycle route around the island of Taiwan developed by the Taiwan Ministry of Transportation and Communications. He also talked about what he's learned about Taiwan's history and aborigines by biking around Taiwan.   Michael is a political commentator, Taipei Times columnist and blogger. We've had Michael on Talking Taiwan previously in episode 119 when he spoke with me about China's ban of Taiwan's pineapples.   Here's a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   What brought Michael to Taiwan How/why he started biking Michael's website about Taiwan in the 1990s which led to his blog Blogs that have inspired him How he's learned things about Taiwan's local history and aborigines while biking around Taiwan How interacting with the land is a way to get to know the land How biking is a way to discover and learn about Taiwan Why Taiwan is one of the best places to bike Tips on how to get around the island easier with a bike How long it takes to bike around the entire island The lighthouse to lighthouse bike ride How he's able to track changes in Taiwan by regularly biking certain routes The difference between driving around in a car vs. riding around on a bike How Taiwan and Madagascar are the only tropical places in the world that have Badlands Where he recommends you should bike or not Taiwan's steep bike routes   Related Links:   Michael Turton's blog: http://michaelturton.blogspot.com/   U.S. Peace Corps: https://www.peacecorps.gov/   Michael Fahey: http://www.winklerpartners.com/?page_id=622   Scott Sommers/Summers: https://www.intellectbooks.com/scott-sommers   TC Lin's blog: http://poagao.org/pjournal/   Roland Soong's blog East West North South: http://www.zonaeuropa.com/weblog.htm   Andrew Kerslake's blog: https://taiwanincycles.blogspot.com/   The award winning Wikipedia page on Taiwan aborigines that Andrew Kerslake wrote: https://bit.ly/3qSTFbS   Bunun tribe: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunun_people   The film, Island Etude: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_Etude   Yushan aka Jade Mountain (Taiwan's highest peak): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yu_Shan   Sun Moon Lake Swim: https://www.sunmoonlake.gov.tw/en/event/calendardetail/673   Sun Moon Lake: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Moon_Lake   Taroko: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taroko_National_Park   https://wikitravel.org/en/Taroko_Gorge   Badlands: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badlands   Moonscape area of Tainan aka Taiwan's Badlands: https://spectralcodex.com/exploring-the-badlands-of-southern-taiwan/   Taiwan Cycling Route 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan_Cycling_Route_No.1   Taipei Times article, “Ride to the clouds” by Mark Roche: https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/feat/archives/2021/03/11/2003753620   Mark Roche's Blue Sky Adventures: http://www.blueskiestaiwan.com/   Alishan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alishan_National_Scenic_Area   Alishan tea farms: https://www.teafromtaiwan.com/blog/alishan-tea-districts/

This week, Westide vs. the World flim producer Michael Fahey joins the show again to go through the story of how the WPO ended up being broadcast on ESPN3 back in October of 2019. Jen Gimmell sits in this week for a recovering Robert Bain, joining usual host Eric Stone in the show's longest discussion to date. Gimmell and Stone also dicuss the March 2006 issue in the "PLUSA Throwback" segment, which featured some big benchers on the cover like Scot Mendelson, Kara Bohigian and Tiny Meeker.

This week, Bain and Stone conduct an interview with Michael Fahey, film producer of the popular documentary, "Westside vs. The World." In this lengthy interview, Fahey goes through how he was introduced to Westside, his history in film production, how he came to the idea of "Westside vs. The World," and the many stories behind getting the film completed. In addition, Fahey goes through how producing this documentary led him into helping with the production of the WPO, and a possible follow-up powerlifting-related documentary. In the "PLUSA Throwback" segment, the boys go through highlights from the November 2004 issue, featuring two meet results with Stone himself, as well as Jim Grandick of Big Iron fame on the cover.

We are doing our best to bring a primed stage-ready package to the Arnold this year.  We hope this prep is going to pay off big.  We also talk with special guest Michael Fahey... the man behind the critically acclaimed documentary Westside vs. the World.

A couple weeks ago, Eliud Kipchoge ran a sub-two-hour marathon. The first time a human has ever done that. That got us thinking…what is powerlifting’s nearly unbreakable record? Kipchoge had a number of advantages: running with others who were pacing him rather than running against him; vehicles with lasers discovering the best path to run in; and some special shoes not yet available to the public. Because of these factors, his record is unofficial. Are some powerlifting meets similarly skewed and should we want that for just the spectacle and the accomplishment? We asked Michael Fahey -- director of Westside vs the World and the guy responsible for getting powerlifting on ESPN -- to join us for our full discussion of the broader question. Here are some of our thoughts: Are all the broken records in the past few years the result of a bigger pool of talent? Can training methods make that much difference if there haven’t really been any new innovations in a long time? Are co-efficients really fair comparisons? Who thought 1,000+ pound raw squats would become fairly regular thing? Do tested records mean more or less than non-tested ones? Women have turned in some amazing performances in all the competition formats. Are we even capable of defining the limits at this point? It was difficult to come to any definitive conclusion, but we covered a lot of ground. You can count this one as 100% opinion. You can find Michael on Instagram @westsidefilm.

In this episode we talk to director, producer, and editor of the documentary Westside Vs. The World.... Michael Fahey. We talked to him about how he got into lifting weights and found out about Westside Barbell, we talked about the movie itself, and we talked about training philosophies with him. Many people probably don't know but this guy knows his stuff about training as well as making documentaries! This was a fun one for us have a listen!@westsidefilm@brianna_desrochers@trainer.stan

On this episode, we talk to filmmaker Michael Fahey about his new movie, Westside vs. the World. He tells us about working with Louie Simmons and the rest of the Westside crew - as well as Louie's unique impact on the world of strength.

It’s a BONUS episode! And there are SPOILERS! Obviously, we wanted talk about the end of Game of Thrones. It’s not that we’re terribly upset about it, but wow there’s a lot of pissed off people on the internet. Beyond that, it got us thinking about our personal stories, about beginnings and endings, and how difficult it might be to tell the true story of someone’s life in a film or TV show. Here’s what we came up with: What did we love and hate most about the way the individual stories played out at the end of the show? To what extent do each of us plot out our personal stories in our heads before we make big decisions?  If we know where we want to end up, how do we choose our steps along the way? How much impact do comments from people on YouTube and social media about the decisions we’ve made (that affect who we work with and the content we produce) have on us? How is storytelling different in fiction vs documentary/real life? We’re joined on the panel in the first segment by Connor O’Neal who produces the video version of the show and handles Mike’s YouTube channel. Our panel discussion kicks off from the jump. Michael Fahey, director of the documentary Westside vs The World, joins us about 39:00 to give his perspective on presenting the stories of real people on film in a way that’s both accurate and entertaining. (And commercially viable.) Westside vs The World, which details the history of Louie Simmons and Westside Barbell, is now available for rent or purchase on most steaming platforms.

We’ve all heard the old tale about cracking your knuckles and arthritis, but what about your neck, back and all the other parts of you that crack and pop? Is there actually a connection to arthritis? Why do chiropractors and other manual practitioners pop or “adjust” your back or neck? What about shoulders, hips, and knees that pop on their own? Is that good or bad? Does any of this relate to overall joint health? Dr. Jordan Shallow is a chiropractor and competitive powerlifter. He helps us sort through these questions, and he gives some good guidelines on what to look for in a good practitioner. Our ideas start at about 15:00. Jordan joins starting at around 24:00. It was great to have Jordan on the show.
