Episode 0002 – Garrett the Foreigner: A Real Conversation in Shanghai

In this episode of The MIC – Made in China Podcast, I sit down with Garrett the Foreigner — an alumnus of both MIT and Harvard, and one of the most thoughtful, well-traveled people I’ve met in China.


We talk about his journey across the U.S., living in Japan, and now Shanghai — and what it’s really like navigating life as a foreigner in modern China. We met in person just minutes before recording, and what followed was a real, raw, and unscripted conversation.


Garrett shares practical tips, cultural insights, and his honest perspective on East vs West — and why it’s more important than ever to hear stories directly from the ground.
