Listen "16 - Seriously? Moles and cancer (Eng/Canto/Mando)"
Episode Synopsis
Learn how to use Cantonese and Mandarin to say, "Are you kidding? Even if you think the mole is ugly, you don't need to cut it off--it’s not like it's cancerous." Can you guess what Bob Marley and John McCain has in common? And which comedian has the last laugh--Bill Cosby, or Hannibal Buress?
