TC 129 - I Don't Mean Elliot Gould

(click the magic button to hear or download the 42 minute episode) I had a bit of left over audio from last June and July. Seemed that I might be able to beg the indulgence of the many kind listeners to allow me to submit this haphazard effort as an episode. It is after all the holiday season. Actually, had I not taken a three month hiatus, this would have been episode 122 (hence the repeated reference to that episode number). Listening and thinking back, I've realized that a couple of the...

TC 127 - Executive Sweets, Part 2

(click the magic button to hear or download the 13 minute episode) Things started well enough on this episode. The recorder managed to pick up a nice bit of atmosphere walking through a luxury hotel in central Tokyo on my way to a teaching gig. And then, I managed to wrap up the story from the preceding episode while walking along a busy roadway. There's even an opportunity for you to participate in the comments by sharing your advice for the new recruits at your company. And then I entere...

TC 126 - Executive Sweets, Part 1

(click the magic button to hear or download the 28 minute episode) This episode is part 1 of a multi-part series featuring stories from some of the big shots I've been teaching recently. The short bit of audio that appears between the last two segments features some cut-up excerpts from a video on creating compelling elevator speeches with The Chief Storyteller from SellingPower.com. It was assembled with GarageBand. Part two should be coming later this week. Thanks for listening....

TC 125 - The Perfect Episode

(click the magic button to hear or download the 35 minute episode) Were it not for the poor sound quality, heavy-handed editing, and fatuous narrative arc, this otherwise would be a perfect episode. I'm still surprised with how nicely the disparate pieces fell in together - though it did take a bit of tweaking to make some of them fit. More coming shortly.

TC 124 - Dude, I'm so stoked!

(click the magic button to hear or download the 23 minute episode) Quite by accident, I seem to have stumbled upon a format that is fun to record, relatively easy to produce, and hopefully not too unpleasant on the ear. I'm thinking of calling it a "How do 'ya do - cast." Is that corny enough? More music from Lizards From Afar is featured in the middle of this episode. My apologies for not announcing the song more professionally in the previous episode - but hey, I'm a goober, aren't I, son...

TC 123 - Now You're Talking, Son!

(click the magic button to hear or download the 11 minute episode) Sir Pent, the drummer from Lizards From Afar, asked me to play a song from his band on the podcast. He said he was a long time listener and thought the other Tokyo Calling listeners would enjoy hearing the band. As a rock and roll kind of guy, I told him I'd be honored to play their song "Way Back (Mr. Peabody)" on the next episode. As production of that next episode (#124) began to take shape, irony reared it's ironical h...

TC 122 - A Hack's A Hack

(click the magic button to hear or download the 31 minute episode) Would you believe ... a new podcast episode? Many thanks to everyone who sent words of support and encouragement during the recent three month hiatus. The time away from the podcast has provided an opportunity to ponder where things are going with Japan's 1st podcast. This episode is, in essence, a meditation on those ponderings. In short: Tokyo Calling is back (just in time for the fifth anniversary)!...

(click the magic button to hear or download the 30 minute episode) This one-hundred-twentieth episode came unexpectedly on a Sunday afternoon at home. Show notes don't really seem to make sense for this one as it's pretty self-explanatory.

TC 119 - For the record...

(click the magic button to hear or download the 9 minute episode) It seems that this is the time of year when this podcast always appears to crash and burn. Over the past three years a number of folks had declared an end to Tokyo Calling through the silent weeks of late May, June and July. Some might even have felt that the pattern was beginning to repeat itself this year. The point of this short little recording is to declare that nothing could be further from the truth. Though, the frequen...

(click the magic button to hear or download the 33 minute episode) It looks like Japan's First Podcast will be coming through TalkShoe for the foreseeable future. Free hosting that actually returns a small sum compared to paid hosting leaves no choice. This is especially the case considering some decisions I've made about future directions for this podcast.

(click the magic button to hear or download the podcast) A busy week has prevented me from producing either a Tokyo Calling or My Ears to Your Ears episode - though offerings for both are in the works. Fortunately the work I've been doing has allowed me to listen to music. A couple of music podcasts I've recently come across soothed my jagged nerves through this arduous process. The two podcasts are recent additions to the essential NeoJaponisme blog. After listening to both of them a half...

My Ears to Your Ears episode 01 - I Remember Seeing Orson Welles on TV

After too many months of dormancy, the ZionRadio Padcast feed delivered three tasty 70 minute mp3s to iTunes this morning. I listened to a hypnotizing episode entitled "music a fe rule" throughout the various stages of my commute during the day. The idea for this audio miniature occurred while listening to twisting-sweep-in-a-swamp sort of jam at the 49 minute mark whilst thinking about Orson Welles on the way home after a long day in the classroom.

Wish I could blame the poor sound of this 24 minute echo-chamber-cast on the pain killers from my recent injury. In fact, some dude giving a talk on podcasting at a recent Tokyo Mac Users Group (RINGO) meeting recommended using a bit of reverb when recording. He said it would add a little something. Unfortunately, I recorded with some of it instead of adding it after the fact. My fear is that this is unlistenable.
