Art doesn't grow from a tree and even a tree needs sunlight, soil and water.
We don't enjoy begging listeners for money because that's not what we are trained to do. But if you act as if what we do is just some naturally occurring phenomenon to you, like sorry, we have mouths to feed.

Our editor is at risk of losing her healthcare. We don't have enough time to respond to your sense of entitlement.
The amount we get paid for this project doesn't remotely cover the effort our team has put in for 3+ years. This project is still partially self-funded.

This is going to sound kind of mean but please do not ask if we are "willing" to work on other Chinese classics.
We are barely paid enough to work on this project and if it weren't for our naive love for JttW, we would have abandoned ship long ago.
Either pay us to do it, or stop asking.

AI has no clue how a person is supposed to feel about this story. AI has no clue how to deliver this story with the right emotions. AI may have a lot of data, but not a clue about how culture and traditions organically exist and flow in real life.
But we do.

We just received a Youtube comment asking if Lin is AI.
Might as well take this opportunity to make it very clear that this project has zero AI involvement. Every step is done by a human who is really into JttW.

Production Notes Ep.34 drops tomorrow!
It's an episode we almost couldn't finish on time because Lin had a laptop emergency. But thankfully, we managed in the end!
This will be our final update of 2025.
