Description
A slow, clear Taiwanese Mandarin podcast for intermediate Chinese learners (HSK 4–5 / TOCFL Band B). Hosted by Ben — a software engineer from Taiwan, splitting time between Taiwan and Japan.
Each episode features authentic, conversational Taiwanese Mandarin (台灣國語) about daily life, travel, work, food, and culture. Vocabulary is explained in context at a slowed pace — perfect for comprehensible input practice.
