Goodbye the Year of the Rat, hello the Year of the Ox! Feb.11 marked the last day of the lunar calendar in Chinese culture, meaning the most festive time of the year, Chunjie, or the Spring Festival holiday, has begun. To mark this special celebration in uncertain times, we gathered friends from different corners of the world to find out what this last year has meant to them, how are they finding the silver lining in these turbulent times, and most importantly, what was on the menu for the year's last feast.

Guests: 
Jason Lightfoot, a British YouTuber who lives in southwest China's Guizhou Province;
Xiong Yijun, an English teacher at a middle school in Wuhan;
Liu Xiaoqian, a reporter currently based in San Francisco, U.S.
