Wiretap Road Trippin' w/ Alex (Reporterfy) - Updates on living in China 

During the Hong Kong riots, you single-handedly started my red pill journey towards the truth after being brainwashed by Western media since birth. Truth matters and you have the unique ability to help people find that truth. It is absolutely important that you continue to help spread the truth about the world and help more people like you helped me. Thanks again Daniel.

It's a shame you don't make videos anymore, as your videos single-handedly helped countless people understand the truth during the US-sponsored Hong Kong riots in 2019. We need more people like you on RU-vid, as this platform is overrun with vicious anti-China propaganda.

I’m from Alberta I would love to visit China with my wife. Because of your videos. Thank you for all the work you put in these. It’s hard to find balanced videos on China. I enjoyed going on the drive with you guys.

Daniel, I live in Canada and there are Chinese diaspora here hating on China and their own Chinese people because of the propaganda. And we have Asian people getting attacked because of the lies. Your voice is important. Very few people have your ability to take complex issues and communicate it from a different perspective and make people reflect. When you speak it’s not just he said, she said. It’s thought provoking and make people look at things with a critical eye and think. That is far more important than you’ll ever know.

Loved this video China is beautiful and I’m in the UK so not buying any of the bullshit which my country goes for because it’s America’s pet, that has done us no favours whatsoever. I agree that you are missed Daniel and think you both are important voices on China.

I remember you saying that one of the reasons you made videos was so your children would never grow up feeling ashamed of their Chinese heritage. I certainly hope you've accomplished that for your children, and I just want to tell you that you've done something similar for me. Your videos are a welcome, welcome respite against the massive propaganda shitstorm trying to make me feel ashamed of the Chinese part of my Chinese American identity, and I cannot thank you enough for the work that you do. I hope I can come have a beer in your brewpub one day! Cheers.

Hi Daniel, just wanted to let you know, you were the person that opened my eyes to extent of the false information in regards to what was really happening in HK. Your analysis was always very clear and factual and i honestly think you have a talent for getting the point across to your audience. I always thought you mind was extremely good at un-jumbling things and putting things into perspective. I was a little worried when you stopped uploading, however i totally understand the discussion on geopolitics and debunking western proprogxnda is taxing to the mind because its so damn frustrating. Definitely glad to see still you well and happy! You are right that the narrative can no longer really hurt China anymore and there is no stopping them from moving forward. "Actions speak louder than words", and in this case, i am starting to believe that their own proprogxnda is not hurting China but hurting themselves more. They have lied so much they are starting to become delusional and because of that they have become arrogant and are slowly falling behind. Anyway Thanks for your voice of reason! much appreciated! Take care.

Good, Daniel is the most articulate man I've ever seen on RU-vid

Daniel, we miss your voice. You are so critical to us living outside of China, especially getting the truth and the reality of living there. Please don’t give up. You are one of the most important voices coming out of China, please don’t stop.❤❤❤

Great to see you Daniel. I’ve missed your commentaries and analyses of all things China 🇨🇳

9 months! We need to hear more from you for world peace !

Keep it random, natural, candid and spontaneous. Don't know about what other subscribers of yours think, I personally love this format a lot. Please do more. Thanks!

Congratulations China. No one can challenge China in terms of technology ❤. Chinese government and sports authority done a tremendous job. What a beautiful opening ceremony Asian Games Domination of China is on next level ❤❤❤❤❤🇨🇳

Wow, it is so nice to see Daniel again.

You've been a bright spot of information for this Canadian. My wife and I got out of the west, no way are raising our kids in that mess. Looking forward to spending time in the mainland soon.

Road Trippin :))))

Love seeing China RU-vid content creators get together and talk

Welcome back Daniel. I miss your beard, but you are nice without it too. I started following you sometimes between HK and Xinjiang and always found your videos excellent. I can understand you having stopped making videos for a while. Life has an annoying tendency to come between our plans and reality sometimes. But I will continue to follow you and enjoy anything you can produce about China. There are plenty of people talking about the more 'purely' geopolitical stuff, but few people showing the simple joys and pains of daily life, and you have a very good eye and sensibility for that kind of stuff. Enjoy your trip! ❤

The sense of safety in China is incomparable to anywhere in the west. I live in Hangzhou and routinely leave my car engine running or my e-bike on when I go into a shop, I also leave my laptop bag on my bike when I go to the supermarket. I know, bad practice but it's always there when I get back.

Hi Daniel, Just wanted to say that your content is invaluable in giving people the ability to seek a balanced view on issues. I treasure your views and the way you articulate them makes it easy I believe, for many to understand the issues at play. I eagerly look forward to your videos and the conversations that you have with the viewers and the people that you interview. While it is selfish on my part to request that you keep providing a voice of truth and reason, especially in the English medium, I do hope to have the opportunity to be able to continue to learn from your experiences. I think I speak for many on this. I think many viewers have also mentioned that you have the ability to help more people to open their eyes to the truth. To us, I'd say it would be a huge loss if we lost your voice, especially in this day and age of a very powerful western narrative. One of the most unforgettable videos you made was you methodically explaining the entire process of you getting interviewed by the Canadian reporter and exposing the problems on the report. Lastly, thank you. On a personal level, you opened my eyes. You helped me. Warmest regards from Singapore.

I came back here just to say this: This format is amazing. Two old friends having a day trip in a relaxed mood. A bit politcs chitchat, but there is no "political narrative". What I love the most is the casual conversations about personal experiences (you both are great narrators and great listeners). In the end, it is human experiences, not all those hallow ideologies and political arguments, that touches the heart and bring people together.

Long time no see! Good to hear from you,Daniel!

So good to see you back. It is a relief. Please keep your audience connected. Cheers!

Great video, loved seeing the views of China, it's been almost 20 years since I was there, wow how it has changed. Don't stop making the videos you have been missed we do need voices of reason because the anti china propaganda is just increasing.

Daniel is absolutely right in saying that this momentum China is on including its thriving cooperation with the rest of the developing countries is just unstoppable now, and no amount of west led propaganda can change that. The global south (minus a couple of bad apples) has woken up to western imperialism and is working together to fight it. China is their hope and let’s hope China will assume this responsibility and fulfill its imperative role as a world leader to help create a multipolar, equitable world that the great Chinese philosophers have always envisioned. I also no longer feel the need to argue and debate with people online because people are so boxed in by their own world views anyway and you end up only preaching to the choir. But looking at the way the things are going today it’s only a matter of time that justice and truth will prevail, and we just need to sit back, live and let the chips fall where they may. Still, you were one of the most important and articulate voices during that critical period, and I’m sure opened the eyes of more people than you realize.

Daniel, you are one of the people who have really been an inspiration to me and started really down the track of following great independent news. I’ll always have you in my mind as a guy who sticks out as a great leader.

So glad to see you well and sound, and back to the “family”, Daniel!

I think these casual talking videos are really good for sparking interest in these topics for people who are otherwise either not interested or unaware. Going all out on geopolitics trends to attract people who are already invested and that either have the same views as you or the total opposite view as you. So videos of you and your guest just casually talking about other topics and touches on your experiences in China and compare them to your experiences in the west it's a lot more relatable to most people. If you want to make more of this kind of videos. I think they would be tremedously valuable and interesting. One of the podcasts I recommend to most of my friends, that don't even care about these subjects is "The Honest Drink". They are primaerly a self improvement podcasts and the hosts are American Chinese that live in Shanghai. They almost never have episodes focused on the US-China tensions. But in almost every podcast they touch on experiences they have in China and they had in US. And just from that it becomes so apparent how much the Western media skewes and bends the truth. But whether you want to continue to make videos or just take a peek every once in a while or just quit youtube entirely (also understandable). I wish the best to you.

What a gem - two of my favorite true people in an awesome drive and chat - loved it. Shared on BB.

Back in business again

That drone story was hilarious.😂

Wow. The sky is blue and clear.

This format of discussing your lives and whatever comes to mind in a more general random way is definitely enjoyable from my perspective. Don't mind you focusing on spending time with the family at all or on enjoying life, but always appreciate the uploads. Thanks Daniel and Alex!

A good combination on discussion of truth from Alex and Dumbrill.. ...Welcome back Daniel...

Love this format! Get to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Chinese countryside while listening to you guys sharing your experiences in the country is just great😎 Honestly all video podcasts should do something like this.

Thanks you two guys for so many good words you lump into my old country, actually makes me a bit embarrassed! From a Chinese Canadian.

Great to see you back Daniel!

The Highway you guys drove is amazing.

Great to see you back , keep making the videos .

OMG a new video from Daniel and I'm way sooo early seeing this!!

It was so good to listen the conversation of both you ..

Really enjoy the road trip with Daniel and Alex, vicariously. Good video editing

Daniel, it’s nice to hear from you again! And I love the free flowing way this video is, letting me seeing the sceneries while listening to you guys chatting important topics. Good to see you living contently in your adopted city.

I'm watching this while I'm working. So thx for the vicarious/virtual road trip.

Great video. Really enjoyed watching it. Dying to travel to Shanghai soon... I had saw your posts on your trips... really jealous... hopefully you can share more....

Good to see u again Daniel, and Alex of course. Love from Australia

It’s been a long while brother.. very nice seeing you again.. stay awesome brothers..

Similar to FatAnalog, my red pill journey started after watching Daniel interview Kishore Mahbuhani. It was so good that I spent days binge watching Daniel's works which then expanded to Daniel's peers on RU-vid. This is an awesome format too. I absolutely love watching the road trip together while listening to the conversation.

Daniel, and Alex, thank you for your reflections, I really appreciate them.

watching from Tokyo, great that you are back....looking forward seeing more. cheers Dan. On the fly format is best ...the audience are like minded sharp enough to keep up, smiles

Thank you for sharing this ride, love you both, I had learn a lot from you 2 謝謝，加油兄弟们 ❤

Wow, Daniel! I am so glad to see your video again. It has been a long time. As a Canadian myself living in Vancouver, Canada, I am a big fan of you and Alex. Enjoy your time in China.

I would like to see more like this I think, positive stories of China and what they are doing for its people😊 my wife and I are coming back for the first time in four years next week😊😊

Great to see you both ,keep up the good work. Would love to see more of Daniel in the furure.

Thanks Daniel and Alex , great video , it is really good to see you back Daniel

Daniel and Alex, truthfulness and hard work. You guys are great. Best wishes for you and your family.

Eyyyy! A new video from my favorite China talking guy! Hope you and your family are doing great!

Thank you Dan and Alex for this great Video and true dialogue 🎉🎉🎉

I was one of the early subscribers. You have definitely changed my mind on a few things.

Like many of your audience here, I too started to watch alternative geopolitical videos about China by watching your HK riots videos. We love Alex and many other content creators who provided more balanced, most of all more truthful videos about China. But you are a legend! Love your videos as always at whatever frequency you will be posting!

Everyone needs a break, but please don't permanently stop! Your perspective is insanely valuable and your voice is needed! I learned a lot from your videos... Wishing well upon you and your family 🙏

I lived in Chongqing over 20 years. Did not realize that the countryside has became this pretty.

As a kid growing up and living in Chongqing, as well as my dad was actually involved in the building and planning of the city's development, you can't imagine how proud I am to hear you talking about my hometown. I can still remember the old days when the city was a mess and see to the change, it's like the city and me both grow up and turn out to be a better self.

It was great to see you make a video again. Was very enjoyable watching the scenic view of chongqing while listening to your conversation.

Thanks for the update. I always welcome insights into daily life inside China by and from people living there. Such 'drive and talk' videos are as important as directly challenging msm narrative. Great to hear that Dan's been spending quality time with his family! How can I not rejoice this!😂❤

Woww sky is so clear, road are clean. Everything is so organised. It shows governments really work and put effort for the people to live comfortably and healthy. ❤

We missed you Daniel! 💕

Really enjoyed this format. I like how the conversation just flows naturally.

I’m so envious of you and Alex and others who’ve managed to escape the shitshow called The Collective (Clown) West. Well done!

喜欢看这对伙计的视频，他们展示了一个真实的中国，加油！~~~~

It is a pleasant surprise to chance upon this video. Have not had the chance to watch video from Daniel for quite some time already.

Hyes Daniel, I feel your voice together with Nathan Rich is very important. I always respected the information that both of you share with us as it is very balanced and fair.

Great content, Daniel. I really enjoy this format and find it illuminating. Appreciate you taking the time to make it and share it.

Great to hear from Daniel. Fully understand no wanting to waste time on nut-jobs haters & propagandists. It'll be great to hear positive stories about China and the places you visit. Give the World a view of the real China, of everyday China. It may help debunk the propaganda.

Welcome back.. awesome road trip with Alex.. !!!

I normally can’t watch a long YT video, but I watched this almost 1.5 hours long vid and enjoyed it.

Great chat. Would love to keep seeing you once in a while. Just pick your pace.

😍💯Great respect for both of you all the hard work put in to contribute many witness reports on the real China. We also enjoy watching your videos showing tree lined expressways and "perpetual" state of art infrastructure development here. Clearly, mega Chinese cities are safe, family friendly, clean, well maintained and they're flourishing indeed. In the West, it's the opposite. Thank you ❤🎉

Great to see you back Daniel, Alex has been around a little more than you. Both of you together brings back good memories from years pass.

It's actually a really cool format, this way the audiences can listen to your conversation while enjoying the city view, using earphone definetely makes me fell like i'm the one driving the car while listening to a podcast

A BIG THANK YOU from Sweden. This concept is great. I know it is recorded. But it feels like it is real life in real time. You Guys are great educators.

Great road trip showing the rural side of Chongqing! Welcome back Daniel! Thanks for sharing 🙏

Impressive highways!

Daniel is back 👏👏👏

Very glad to see you back! You are missed.

I miss your videos Daniel!! Hope to see more and learn more about your experience in China! Your experience at the Yellow River was so cool to hear about! I enjoy the wider and looser range of topics also. Much love from RI!

Long time no see…. Great to see you again daniel!

these guys are incredible, just casually chatting effortlessly they produce one interesting video.

Hey Daniel. Just to let you know many of us missed you so much. I'm from Malaysia by the way.

So happy to see u on RU-vid time by time. Just a pleasure to hear you and Alex chat this way

This video is better than most of the movies these days

I love Daniel’s wife’s comment on the property ownership, so funny😂

Hi Guys In your casual conversation you have made the most informative and important podcast this year . I’m 59 and looking to retire in Nansha Guandong .. Your take on insurance / taxes and especially the 60 year leases ( we have property in China ) gas really put me at ease .. Thank you ..

Nice to hear from you, Daniel.

I don't know why but I just randomly had a thought of you, so I checked your channel, and voila! a new video! Good to see you Daniel!

Good to see your latest video again. Great to hear you have been recharging yourself and enjoying your family life! Hope you and Alex will keep spreading your positivity and happiness always!! 👍

Thanks for the road trip thats what I liked from your past video.👍👍👍

Great video! It was really enjoyable viewing the Chinese countryside and listening in on a good conversation. Blessings and success from Iowa,USA.

There are so few people speaking the truth while there are so many people spreading lies. We need more truth teller on YT.

I really enjoy this format. I love road trip 😊
