对话杨蒙恩｜在国内干得好好的，为什么要来闯纽约？/ Yang Meng’en | Why come to New York when things were going welll in China?

大家好，欢迎来到这一期的《纽约漫谈录》，本期嘉宾是脱口秀演员杨蒙恩。 有一次在纽约吃饭时，他突然告诉我，他想在美国用英文讲脱口秀。说实话，这让我很惊讶。脱口秀高度依赖语言和文化，而英语并非他的母语，他对美国社会也还在熟悉之中。 他为什么会做出这样的决定？他的优势在哪里？又准备如何面对挑战？这些问题贯穿了我们的对谈。 这期节目，就是关于一次看似大胆、却经过深思熟虑的尝试。 当然，和脱口秀演员聊天，总少不了笑声。希望你会喜欢。 Hello everyone, welcome to a new episode of Rambling in New York. Our guest today is stand-up comedian Yang Meng’en. One night while we were having dinner in New York, he suddenly told me that he wanted to try performing stand-up comedy in English in the United States. I have to admit, that surprised me. Stand-up comedy depends heavily on language and cultural context. English is not his native language, and he is still getting familiar with American society. Why would he make such a decision? What does he see as his strengths? And how does he plan to deal with the challenges ahead? These questions run through our conversation. This episode is about a choice that might seem bold from the outside, but is actually the result of a lot of thought. And of course, when you talk with a stand-up comedian, there’s always plenty of laughter along the way. Hope you enjoy the conversation.
