  • How to be a lifelong learner via podcasting with Kavein, a podcast super listener

We dive into his podcast listening habits, listening groups, accessibility issues with podcast apps and websites, Big History and his favorite podcasts.

  • Podcasting Walls and the Authentic Self With Dakota M. Shyft
    Feb 12 2021
    About 6 months into podcasting many Podcasters hit a wall.  What am I doing?  Why am I doing this?  And other large, podcastery questions start haunting them.  The inevitable episode of doubt happens and then there is either podfade or a shift in content.  This is exactly the type of episode that I heard Dakota do on his Language Learning Lounge podcast. Because Dakota and I already knew each other, I decided that instead of just listening I would reach out and try to help. Or at least, ask a lot of questions to find out why this keeps happening to lovely Podcasters like him. This is the conversation that we had.  More episode information: https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting (https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting) https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting (Wo)uld love to hear from you! https://twitter.com/stephfuccio (Twitter), https://www.instagram.com/stephfuccio (Instagram), http://www.linkedin.com/in/dstephfuccio/ (LinkedIn) & you can even leave a voice message on https://stephfuccio.weebly.com/contact.html (Speakpipe).

  • Big & White: Two American Linguists Living & Podcasting in Nepal
    Jan 19 2021
    If you've ever wondered what it's like to live, work and podcast in Kathmandu, Nepal, this episode is for you! Big & White, their podcasting nicknames, are two American Linguists who, until very recently were living in Nepal and creating a rather hilarious audio account of their daily lives. Their episodes covered much of what expat podcasts cover (https://www.podchaser.com/lists/expat-podcasts-107ZztJV0y) like food, weather, language, and cultural differences but there is an extra kick to their podcast. Their connection and how they bounce off each other is so much fun to listen to. This is the main reason I became a fan of The Big & White Podcast in the first place and definitely why I asked to interview them for the show. Don't worry, we also talk about podcasting bits like technology, social media, podcast learning curve, editing, audience feedback, Nepali podcasts, guests and advice for new Podcasters also. But this conversation is a bit more free flowing than some of the other Geopats Podcasting episodes because we dipped into some of their content topics too like their visual stickoutness in Nepal (thus the name of the podcast), weight lifting and so much more. And since they are Linguists that were doing field work all over Nepal, there is an episode coming on Geopats Language podcast with that geeking out aspect as well. More episode information: https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting/20 (https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting/20) Would love to hear from you! https://twitter.com/stephfuccio (Twitter), https://www.instagram.com/stephfuccio (Instagram), http://www.linkedin.com/in/dstephfuccio/ (LinkedIn) & you can even leave a voice message on https://stephfuccio.weebly.com/contact.html (Speakpipe).

  • Talking To The Past To Influence The Future With Aseloka Smith Of The Colored Girl Beautiful Podcast
    Oct 23 2020
    We are firmly seated in the United States for this episode. Well, I (Steph) am currently in Tirana, Albania (check https://www.instagram.com/stephfuccio/?hl=en on IG or https://twitter.com/stephfuccio on Twitter for more about this) but my guest, Aseloka Smith of the https://coloredgirlbeautiful.com/ (Colored Girl Beautiful podcast), is in the U.S. With Geopats Podcasting we hope to shake up your podcast creation process by listening to how others use the medium around the world and Aseloka will definitely get your creative juices flowing with what and how she has done The Colored Girl Beautiful. Also inspiring is our sponsor for this episode, https://www.podcorn.com/ (Podcorn). They are a marketplace connecting Podcasters to Advertisers. There is more information about their services at 14:23 in this episode but for now I just want to say thanks Podcorn, for the sponsorship.   Although Aseloka was touched by the places in Latin America that she lived earlier in her life, it is time her travel to engage with African-American singer, political activist and the Author of the book The Colored Girl Beautiful (TCGB) that inspired the podcast, https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/1093964.E_Azalia_Hackley (E. Azalia Hackley) ,  that brings her on the show. Actually, I became aware of Aseloka and her podcast when I saw her on the https://www.podcastersroundtable.com/1335-2 (Podcasters Roundtable). She is one of those people that expresses ideas in such a down to earth and insightful way that I knew I had to meet her. You all know that this podcast is my excuse to meet people I admire, right? There is a link in the show notes to that appearance.   During this conversation, Aseloka and I dig into the emotional, racial and creative layers woven into her podcast. And there are many. We also tap into the practical side of creating a podcast because the fact that Aseloka did the https://googlecp.prx.org/ (Google Podcast Creators Program), a Master’s degree and worked a full time job while creating season 1 of TCGB is nothing less than amazing and I am pretty sure we can all learn from her. A special shout out needs to go out to https://www.instagram.com/secretadventuresofblackpeople/ (Nicole Hill,) the Producer of TCGB. You’ll know why after listening to this conversation.    Geopats Podcasting's podcast host is Captivate FM: An insanely Creator oriented hosting service with personality, marketing know how and more. So yea, I highly recommend them. https://my.captivate.fm/signup?ref=geopats (https://my.captivate.fm/signup?ref=geopats) If you like this episode, feel free to buy me a coffee:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/geopats (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/geopats) The full show notes are available at:https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting ( https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting/15)

    Oct 16 2020
    We hope to shake up your podcast creation process by hearing how others use the medium around the world. Today, we are headed to India, to talk to Vishnu Padmanabhan from the Writer and Geek podcast. Vishnu is a Podcaster by night (literally) and an Engineer by day but admits that photography would be his alternate career, if possible. If you’re a fan of the https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatscoffee (Geopats Coffee podcast) then you’re familiar with Vishnu’s Co-Host and brother, Shankar.    Vishnu and I covered everything that you can in podcasting, including: their podcast setup, dividing up tasks with a Co-Host (even if they are your brother!), podcasts in India, editing tech and tips, audience, outsourcing, podcast hosts, Podcasters community in India, advice for new Podcasters and more.  If you like this episode, feel free to buy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/geopats (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/geopats) Geopats Podcasting's podcast host is Captivate FM: An insanely Creator oriented hosting service with personality, marketing know how and more.

  • Accessibly Organizing Podcasts with Podchaser's CEO/Co-Founder Bradley Davis
    Oct 2 2020
    This episode is a special one for sure. As many of you who have been listening to the podcast, follow me on the socials or participate in #PodRevDay know, I am a huge fan ofhttps://www.podchaser.com/ ( Podchaser), the IMDB of Podcasting. But some folks I talk to outside of the U.S. have expressed concerns about some Podchaser features not working as well in the country that they lived in. So, what else could I do but ask https://www.podchaser.com/creators/bradley-davis-107Zzj5f17 (Bradley Davis), the Co-founder/CEO Podchaser on the show to ask him some globally minded Podchaser questions.   Bradley and I cover accessibility and language issues, combined geographic & language search dream functionality, the push and pull of keeping podcasting open and the messiness that organically ensues and so much more. What we intentionally don’t cover are Podchaser or Bradley’s podcasting origin stories. Why? Because they have already been well covered on other podcasts this year (Podlovers Asia, Inspired Money and The New Media Show), so I am instead adding to these episodes in the show notes at https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting (https://www.stephfuccio.com/geopatspodcasting/13)
