hour 1 hour 2Hello and welcome to this edition of Today - a two-hour news magazine brought to you by Beyond Beijing, a production of China Radio International. I'm Chris Gelken and with me here on the desk is Xu Qinduo and Ashley Eldridge.
In the first hour of today's program we'll be taking a look at comedy - with a special focus on a traditional form of Chinese comedy, the quick fire cross-talk.
In the second hour, we'll have our News and Talks section where we take a look at current affairs in China and around the world. All that plus our regular features such as Name It, a city quiz that could see you on a plane to the Middle Kingdom.
