Taipei Shorts: Multi-Language Theater in Taiwan

Taiwan is patchwork quilt of diverse, motiving personalities. The show features politicians who make history, entrepreneurs whose innovations help keep the global economy afloat, and artists who explore creativity in fascinating, inspiring ways. Taiwan Talk tells stories from the unique perspectives of Taiwan all over the world. From those at home, those abroad, and those who’ve chosen to make this island their home. 

Taiwan Talk airs on ICRT FM100 at 8am, and in the evening in the 6pm news hour.
