第一則：跨國訂製嬰兒集團遭偵破！查獲 25 名新生兒
台中檢警偵破橫跨台灣、馬來西亞及泰國的非法「訂製嬰兒」集團，該集團向台灣男性收取每名嬰兒 200 萬至 450 萬元，安排採集精子、挑選卵母與泰國代理孕母，甚至可以指定嬰兒性別，再安排孕母來台生產。
檢方共查獲 25 名新生兒，其中 21 名是男嬰。台中地檢署於 9 月 21 日依違反《人工生殖法》起訴 3 人，並對 2 名中國籍幕後負責人發布通緝。
Transnational “Designer Baby” Ring Busted, 25 newborns were found
Prosecutors and police in Taichung have uncovered an illegal “designer baby” ring operating across Taiwan, Malaysia, and Thailand. The group charged Taiwanese men NT$2 million to NT$4.5 million for each baby, arranging sperm collection, egg donors, and Thai surrogate mothers. Clients could even choose the baby’s sex, and the surrogate mothers were later brought to Taiwan to give birth.
Prosecutors found a total of 25 newborns, including 21 boys. The Taichung District Prosecutors Office charged three people with violating the Assisted Reproduction Act on September 21 and issued arrest warrants for two Chinese nationals believed to be behind the operation.
第二則：川習會前台灣議題升溫 對台軍售仍遭擱置
《紐約時報》報導，川習會即將登場，北京正施壓美國延後總額 140 億美元的對台軍售，前美國國安會官員也透露，部分赴美台灣官員曾被川普政府要求減少造訪華府智庫。
外界認為，川普希望維持美中關係穩定，同時需要中國在稀土供應及伊朗問題上合作，隨著川習會接近，台灣議題可能成為美中雙方重要的談判議題之一。
Taiwan Issues Heat Up Ahead of Trump-Xi Meeting, U.S. Arms Sales Remain on Hold
The New York Times reported that ahead of the upcoming Trump-Xi meeting, Beijing is pressuring the United States to delay a US$14 billion arms sale to Taiwan. A former U.S. National Security Council official also said that some Taiwanese officials visiting the U.S. were asked by the Trump administration to limit their visits to Washington think tanks.
Observers believe Trump wants to maintain a stable U.S.-China relationship while also seeking China’s cooperation on rare earth supplies and the Iran issue. As the Trump-Xi meeting approaches, Taiwan may become one of the key issues in talks between the United States and China.
第三則：名古屋亞運台灣首面金牌！軟式網球余凱文、黃詩媛摘冠
名古屋亞運於 9 月 21 日舉行軟式網球混雙金牌戰，台灣組合余凱文、黃詩媛苦戰 9 局，以 5 比 4 擊敗地主日本的頭號種子組合，成功拿下台灣代表隊本屆亞運首面金牌。
教練表示，余凱文與黃詩媛長期搭檔，彼此具有良好的默契與信任，因此比賽中能更靈活調整戰術，台灣軟網目前已在本屆亞運拿下 1 金 2 銀的佳績。
Taiwan Wins First Gold at Nagoya Asian Games! Yu Kai-wen and Huang Shih-yuan Take Soft Tennis Title
The soft tennis mixed doubles gold medal match was held at the Nagoya Asian Games on September 21. Taiwan’s Yu Kai-wen and Huang Shih-yuan battled through nine games and defeated the top-seeded Japanese pair 5-4, winning Taiwan’s first gold medal at this year’s Asian Games.
The coach said Yu and Huang have played together for many years and have built strong teamwork and trust. This allows them to adjust their tactics more quickly and flexibly during matches. Taiwan’s soft tennis team has now won one gold and two silver medals at this year’s Asian Games.
第四則：AI 不再是選配 Shopify 要員工把它變成基本能力
生成式 AI 正在改變消費者找商品、比價和購物的方式，加拿大電商 Shopify 擔心傳統電商網站的重要性會因此下降。執行長路特克要求員工把 AI 當成基本工作能力，遇到任務時先思考能不能交給 AI 協助。
這套做法也慢慢改變公司文化。Shopify 放寬部分 AI 工具預算、設立 Token 使用排行榜，並增加招募熟悉 AI 的實習生，讓 AI 從輔助工具變成日常工作的一部分。
AI Is No Longer Optional, Shopify Wants Employees to Make It a Basic Skill
Generative AI is changing how consumers search for products, compare prices, and shop online. Canadian e-commerce company Shopify is concerned that this could make traditional e-commerce websites less important. CEO Tobi Lütke has asked employees to treat AI as a basic work skill and first consider whether AI can help with a task.
This approach is also gradually changing the company’s work culture. Shopify has loosened some budget limits on AI tools, created a token usage leaderboard, and increased hiring for interns who are familiar with AI, making AI part of everyday work rather than just a supporting tool.
第五則：音樂卡帶復活！年輕人搶著聽
英國 2025 年卡帶銷量達 16.4 萬捲，較前一年成長 53%，加上泰勒絲、怪奇比莉等歌手推出卡帶版專輯，讓這種需要快轉、倒帶與翻面的老式媒介，再度走進大眾視野。
卡帶比黑膠便宜，也能實際買回家收藏，這是串流平台無法取代的地方；對許多聽眾而言，卡帶更代表一種不受演算法控制的自主選擇。
Cassette Tapes Are Back! Young Listeners Love Them
In 2025, 164,000 cassette tapes were sold in the United Kingdom, a 53% increase from the previous year. Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, and other artists have also released albums on cassette, bringing this old format, which requires fast-forwarding, rewinding, and flipping sides, back into the spotlight.
Cassette tapes are cheaper than vinyl records, and people can actually buy and collect them, which is something streaming platforms cannot replace; they also represent the freedom to choose what to listen to without being controlled by algorithms.
Let’s wrap up today’s episode. We’ve learned about some important events happening around the world.
Taichung prosecutors uncovered a transnational “designer baby” ring that arranged surrogacy and sex selection, with 25 newborns found and three people charged.
Ahead of the Trump-Xi meeting, Taiwan could become a key issue as Beijing pressures the U.S. to delay arms sales while Washington seeks China’s cooperation on rare earth supplies and the Iran issue.
Yu Kai-wen and Huang Shih-yuan won Taiwan’s first gold medal at the Nagoya Asian Games after defeating Japan in the soft tennis mixed doubles final.
Shopify’s AI push shows how companies are turning AI from an optional tool into a basic skill for everyday work.
Cassette tapes are making a comeback because they are affordable, collectible, and give listeners more control in an age dominated by streaming algorithms.
In the next episode, we will together explore the recent hot news with you in the morning. Don’t forget to come back. Have a nice day and hear me next time. Bye.
