We welcomed Justin Barrett, MYP Drama Teacher, on to #SWISROCRADIO this morning.

Our regular co-host Matt Manfredi was in the seat beside Justin to keep him in check....

Introduction (0.03-07.36)

We had some house keeping which needed to be addressed before we started the main show;

Thank you to our sponsors this week Xpats Bar Shenzhen (Phenix Everly) ********
Background Info on Mr.Barrett
Kayley's Dog Brody (Kayley is Matt's Daughter and she has been most upset that her dog has not got a mention on the show).
The highly respected Dante Manfredi, Long Island and his criticism of the host which was confirmed to be accurate...(thank you Dante for exposing the truth).

Travel to Hong Kong/Macau/Zhuhai (07.39-22.05)

We talked about the various options including ferries from Shekou, buses from Shenzhen Bay, taxis and trains.

Here is the timetable for the ferry.

To book tickets you can create an account and buy here. Tickets can be picked up at the Kiosk at the ferry terminal. You will need a chinese phone number to set this up.

Shenzhen Party has lots more excellent information about the region.

Quiz - Long Island v St.Kilda's (22.08-35.04)

In this section Matt goes head to head with Justin in a fun trivia section to win a 100RMB Voucher from Xpats Bar. Check out this good website funtrivia.com to find some good quizzes! Justin beat Matt to win the prize thereby casting doubts on Dante's earlier assertions....

Travel within the Region (35.07-49.50)

We explore different options including Vietnam and Thailand and flight options.

Questions from New Staff (49.50-51.00)

We take questions submitted by new staff members about banking and cycling and attempt poorly to answer them!

Final Section (51.00-54.00)

Thanks to our sponsors from the last three podcasts including Le 5 Chefs, Xpats Bar and HH Gourmet in Shekou.

Matt at HH Gourmet has very kindly donated vouchers and coffees to new members of the SWIS Shenzhen Staff in August. Thank You Matt. I love the bagels there myself and can highly recommend this restaurant to all staff.

Maggie at George and Dragon has also promised 3 vouchers for our hungry/thirsty new staff. The Shepherd's Pie is fantastic there and they have amazing offers on Monday nights.

We hope you enjoy the show.

We have contacted The Guinness Book of Records to see if we managed to break the record for the amount of time we blatantly unashamedly promote our sponsors Xpats Bar this week.

Did we mention that we were sponsored by Xpats Bar this week?
