In which Jeannine Saba of Lost for Words meets the world’s worst audio interviewer and is mysteriously compelled to tell him the story of her amazing business [parental warning: contains repeated & annoying mmmm-ing, uh-huhing and one explicit reference to cheesecake]. This is the first in an occasional series of interviews I’m doing with friends…
The Podwalk009 podcast was meant to come to you earlier, hot off the minidisc as I ended the walk in the land where the baristas wear black and green. But I had a Starbucks wi-fi malfunction and then I needed lunch and nothing in Tate Modern tickled my fancy. There will be a visit to…
This is a round-up of some of the cool things that have landed in my mailbox so far this week: BicycleMark – the Amsterdam podwalker and communique-er extraordinaire, let me know that my feedburner feed didn’t have enclosures. So now it does. Christian d’Hoste sent me his flickr-seeing tour of Florida post hurricane and his…
Om Malik says podcasting’s very complicated. I disagree. In my experience, this is how simple it is to be a podcaster. 1. Have an idea – now I see how that might cause problems, but if we take it one day at a time most of us can manage that eventually. 2. Next, the really…
Meanwhile, in another part of London… …rumour has it that Adam Curry was doing a sound-seeing tour in London yesterday too but here’s my perspective on a lovely spring day in the West End of London, walking from the Selfridges end of Oxford St, down South Moulton St, along Brook St and the bottom of…
OK, this was recorded on 20th February just after podwalk 6 but it’s been sitting “in the can” since then as I’ve been doing all sorts of other things. You can hear me walk and talk my way from the Great Court of the British Museum over to Kingsway, down High Holborn, over Holborn viaduct…
You are privileged enough to get to hear me go through my paces with Quick Lamb Curry, a midweek special, ‘cos I’ve been sick off work but back to bouncing by this evening. An accompanying picture set is over on flickr.com Mmmmmm…..smell that chilli and coriander…..
Right, no pictures, no music, just more sound of some nutcase, wandering around London on a Sunday afternoon. Starting in Piccadilly outside the RA, I walk through Piccadilly Circus, up through Soho, along Oxford Street, across Tottenham Court Road and along to the British Museum.
for something completely different. I have some more podwalk material in the can, but it needs chopping up into digestible bits and there aren’t any pictures grrrr…. So for a Sunday evening chortle see what you think of this.
A shorter one this week, with not so much walking. Well plenty of walking, but within a small area. Podwalk 005 starts with a busker at Bond St tube station before heading off to Speakers Corner in Hyde Park on Sunday 13th February. I didn’t have my camera with me so there are only a…
