This Week The Pack is joined by Winston Sterzel, (on Twitter
@serpentza) also known by his 
YouTube pseudonym SerpentZA. We talk about his
time in China, his need to flee, How China has changed, and the
chilling effect they have on free speech in the US.  Russia,
Ukraine, and Vietnam and how China has its hand in global
events.  


He lived in Shenzhen in the Guangdong province of China for
fourteen years. His videos cover a variety of topics relating to
life in China from a Westerner perspective. He moved to
China to work as an English teacher after first visiting on
business in 2005. In 2015, he was one of twelve South
Africans in China profiled by China Radio International. He
started uploading videos in China in 2007 and became a full-time
vlogger in 2016. His videos primarily focus on life in China
as viewed from a Western perspective.


Sterzel has also made videos about motorcycle trips through
China. With fellow YouTuber Matthew Tye (who goes by
Laowhy86) and other friends, he has taken extended journeys
and produced documentary series titled Conquering Southern
China and Conquering Northern China. He and Tye
operate the YouTube channel ADVChina, a motorcycle travel
vlog. Sterzel was also co-founder of a small,
China-based custom motorcycle business, Churchill Custom
Motorcycles, that is no longer in business. In late 2018, he
said he desired to create "positive content" about China, but
that a negative interaction with the Chinese police spurred him
to move out of China.


In 2019, Sterzel moved to Los Angeles because he felt he would
lose his life or be incarcerated in China following threats by
ultranationalist Internet users, who accused Sterzel's wife of
being a spy and a threat to national security. Sit back have a
drink and let's talk about China since we can't go there.
