Pod talk

Some great guests on this month's show. If you've never listened before, we suggest this is the show you should dive into.

We're working up the idea that we might be doing a show from New York City in December, just in time for Christmas. But as with all these things, it's a little up in the air at the moment.

We've now changed our broadcast patterns. We plan to put out an hour long talk show once a month with the occasional Podcast Extra in the middle of every month. In mid October we have a Podcast Extra which features an extended version of the Japan interview with Mat Fraser.
