This is a part 1 of Radioactive Taiwan, a People's Choice Podcast Awards Finalist for 2021 (we may still win, who knows?).
When President Jimmy Carter de-recognized Taiwan, the American military radio station that broadcast to American soldiers and thousands of Taiwanese had to leave Taiwan. American businessmen demanded that the Taiwan government authorize an English-language radio station … and International Community Radio Taipei (ICRT) was born. ICRT became an active, community minded radio station, that worked with the people of Taiwan, to internationalize the country. Taiwan's youth were experiencing a cultural, economic and political awakening that coincided with ICRT's birth.ABOUT:
Radioactive Taiwan is an audio story of how International Community Radio Taipei covered sensitive political topics at a time when Taiwan was still under martial law. ICRT gave a voice to the opposition party and Dangwai movement, ideas that were banned or poorly covered by most of the pro-government media at the time.

Note 1 : This episode comes 4 days late from recording, ironically in part due to the rolling blackouts in this story.
Note 2: There was an audio problem, fixed in this rerelease.
