Hey –
I just got a mixed review on the iTunes page. A blot on my image!
Well, it's of my own making, I guess – so the next podcast I will be doing the definitive treatment of Yongsan and how to get to recommended electronics markets and other sites of interest (this was the plan anyway, but I thought I'd make sure everyone knows). It's an amazing but confusing place, so it's a perfect candidate for podcast. So I'll be getting back to some more practical basics (I thought I was already starting to with my subway 'cast, though) and getting ya'll more stuff to chew on. Problem is, I was actually gonna do the Yongsan thing today, but I have a horrible cold and my voice is shot. This week's been a bad one.
I know I got a lot of good feedback on Darcy's podcast, but I also know that for those of you not interested in Korean cinema, such long interviews might be of little interest to you. I'll try to strike a balance. And I'd like to solicit you listeners for more suggestions.
Also in the bag is the response I recorded to a set of interview questions sent from Finland via email. I actually already recorded it, but want to do it again to make it less...umm...lame, and to improve on my answers by being more concise and less longwinded.
On top of that, we'll have more Susan and Darcy in the near future – the cuisine and cinema beats – as well as a few other surprises. And I do want to get out of the "family restaurant" and Western food rut, as one listener suggested, so Susan and I will come up with something soon. I was thinking of hitting up the popular chain Omuto Tomato – perhaps the Ehwa one, unless she thinks the one in Coex is better, and I have been thinking about making the CoEx trip a podcast unto itself.
Trust me – I'm working on making this podcast as good as it can be (which is a lot better than now!) I'm a perfectionist held back only by my lack of skills and organization (which means that I'm just not doing a good job!). But at least I know it's not where it needs to be, rather than be overly satisfied with mediocre content. To me, that's the main difference between mediocre and successful projects. Well, a little elbow grease and the skills to pay the bills doesn't hurt, either.
