年龄、文化、性别和社会背景都会影响到我们彼此之间的沟通方式。在今天的节目中，Mel和Vic分别谈论了她们在美国和北京的成长经历，以及这些经历如何影响与周围人的关系和沟通方式。通过讨论关系开始时可能发生的误解和家庭文化价值产生的冲突（东西方之间），我们谈论了社会、经济和文化是如何影响朋友、家人和恋人之间的沟通。

Age, culture, gender, and social context all dips into the way we communicate with one another. In today's episode, Mel and Vic talk about their upbringing in the United States and Beijing, respectively, and how it has influenced their relationship and communication styles with people around them. With discussions about how misunderstanding may occur at the start of a relationship (texting for one month before going on a first date is a no-go in Mel's books) and within the household with conflicting cultural values (east vs. west), Mel and Vic dig into how social, economic and cultural norms influence communication within friends, family, and partners.
