None of the recent lessons' exercises are loading!! How about giving us subscribers two or three extra days on our subscription? It's a real hassle--hen mafan!--to set aside time during a busy day to do the Chinese lesson and then not be able to do it.

Oh, I am so sorry to see you go, Pete. The Poems with Pete episodes were among my favorites. I hope that someone else will rise to the challenge of devising another high-culture intensive podcasts.

Yeah,let's just wait and see.  I don't think Lao Wang is long for this world. A really good and imaginative series--sorry to see it come to an end.

One of the exercise translation sentences is incorrect in English--it needs "next month"/ xia ge yue. Enjoyed this lesson.

Also, why is CP translating "bang4" in the Vocab as "stick"? Thanks for clarifying.

I could have sworn that Jenny says "xueping" (hence, Changye's blood reference) yet the transcript says "xieping". Which is right and how do I know how to pronounce the xue/xie character when I see it? Thanks.

Where are the multiple choice expansion exercises? The matching and fill in the blanks are present but not the second form of exercise. Thanks.
