Monkey King Sun Wu Kong——Journey to the West

What’s This Podcast
About?

Step into one of the greatest adventures in world literature—Journey to the West. This podcast brings you the legendary tale of the Monkey King, Tripitaka the monk, and their companions Pigsy and Sandy, as they travel across mountains, rivers, and demon kingdoms in search of sacred scriptures. But this isn’t just a story of magic battles and trickster gods—it’s also about loyalty, temptation, friendship, and the search for enlightenment. In each episode, I’ll guide you through the chapters of this classic, explain the cultural background, and share why these characters are so deeply loved in China and beyond. Whether you’ve heard of Sun Wukong before or you’re completely new to Chinese mythology, this is your chance to experience the humor, wisdom, and wild imagination of the East. Journey to the West is more than a novel—it’s a window into Chinese culture, philosophy, and storytelling that still resonates today. So, join me on this journey. Let’s follow the Monkey King and his friends as they fight demons, challenge the heavens, and learn what it really means to grow. New episodes come out every weekend, one story at a time.
