    Podcasting - I love it!

    From horse meat to bagels; the ruffled feathers of bird-buyers; poetry, comedy, politics and peace. The first ever Global Voices podcast has hit the internet airwaves. It’s a short magazine-type showcase of podcasts from around the world. There will b…

    [...] For a while now at Global Voices we’ve been contemplating if much like our weblog posts for photographs and text posts, more could be done to push podcasts from various parts of the world. Georgia Poppelwell did just that - in her incredibely icecreamy nutty (which I first used to describe her voice!) voice presents some of the most interesting podcasts doing the rounds. She takes you through the podcasts - with brief snippets from each. If you listen to just one podcast todya - this is the one! [...]

    This is such an exciting initiative. When will you release a proper Press Release page for us traditional media folk?

    In the meantime, we’ll keep listening for rumbles on the tracks ^_^

    I found out about the Global Voices podcast on Georgia Popplewell’s Caribbean Free Radio.

    For the last year I’ve been kicking around the idea of doing an international podcast magazine. I only had the haziest ideao of what such a show would be like. Global Voices goes beyond anything I could possibly imagine. The show is vibrant, intimate and funny. And hungry! The Kazahkstan Stories food segment made me ravenous for some besparmak.

    I look forward to future episodes!
