    In this podcast episode I go back to China, virtually! I chat with Lawrence Lin, a Chinese podcast industry expert. He shares all about the exciting opportunities for podcasting AND other audio mediums in China. We discuss the current landscape and emphasize the growing popularity of podcasts in major cities like Shanghai and Beijing. Additionally, Lawrence compares the evolving monetization strategies of these mediums and the prospects for advertisers to target specific audiences as the audio space evolves.

Ohhh, that’s not the only thing that will keep your interest with this skilled storyteller. Vanina shares so much information about the podcasting space in Argentina including but not limited to tools podcasters in Argentina use, shows that are popular there, gender issues in the space and more.

    Language podcaster Craig is from the UK but has been podcasting in Spain for many years. Alternatively business podcaster Pilar has the opposite geographical podcasting experience being from Spain and podcasting from the UK for a long time. And yet they found each other and created a podcast about the scene in Spain some years ago. In this conversation with Craig and Pilar we dig into what they learned about podcasting in these two countries, how the space has changed since their podcast was live and how indy podcasting differs from business podcasting. These two folks are knowledgeable and are tapped into the space in a passion led way so there's a lot to learn from them. Let's get to it!

    You know I love listening to other expat podcasts. Well, my client, Amanda Bates of The Black Expat, has an incredible podcast called The Global Chatter, which is:
    "a conversational podcast on international mobility, identity, race, career, and more. Each episode takes a deeper dive on issues related to the expatriate experience, especially as it relates to Black and Brown people."

    This is an episode swap with The Global Chatter. Hurrah!

    JK Hobson is Amanda's guest. They talk about his wild career trajectory to places in the world (Puerto Rico, New York City, Saigon/Ho Chi Minh City, etc) and of course, identity and race experiences that he's noticed and experienced along the way. Oh, and lot's of musical references because he is a musician and Amanda loves music!

    Their conversation is intense, funny and insightful. And it's here to make your ears happy. Let me know what you think. I'm @stephfuccio on the socials.

    Making our morning cup is not only a ritual and often an energy requirement but it's a sound experience. That's why I'm so glad that Audio Engineer Jason Sheesley agreed to join us for this playful coffee chat. We explore U.S. and Europe coffee and coffee culture, his peak coffee experience, and take a look at his kitchen coffee setup. And more!

    Questions about family can be triggering if the experience was not ideal. This is one of the reasons that Steph's talked about her family in tiny drips here and there but not in depth. But it felt disingenuous to ask other expats to open up about their early family life growing up with immigrant parents without diving into these experiences herself. So to help with this tabled turned interview, Melissa was kind enough to hop in and guide the conversation.

    Have your immigrant parents ever visited you in any of your expat places? Georges' parents have and it shifted how he understood their struggles moving from Greece to Canada. We cover a lot more ground on his parents' immigrant story and how it has both positively and negatively influenced his own expat experience.

    Have you ever wondered why your immigrant parent(s) didn't prepare you for being a global citizen?

    Chelsea thought this when she was struggling in her first expat place. Over time she began to understand the distinct difference between her mother's immigrant experience and her expat one. In this conversation, we unpack the lasting impression that Chelsea's mom had on her expat life and which influences she kept and discarded.

    How much do our immigrant parents impact our adult expat experiences? This is what we're exploring in this conversation with return guest Alison.

    Alison and I dig into growing up with two unequal cultures in one household, the racial struggles she's seen in many countries during her years living outside of her passport country of the U.S. and her coming to terms with the differences between her mother's immigrant experience and her own expat life.

    Do you know what the top two types of podcasts are the most popular in Mexico? David Roemer, a podcaster and Co-Founder of a podcast production house in Mexico City, does.

    And not only is he sharing this information with us in this conversation but he's also breaking down the biggest challenges for Mexican podcasters right now, and how bigger players might help elevate the space as a whole. and how the community is growing quickly. His perspective on these rapid changes with experience as both an independent podcaster AND business owner is invaluable.

    If you’re someone who perks up when the words STORY and COMMUNITY are mentioned in terms of podcasts, then this is a conversation for you. Oh yea, there are also some great monetization ideas also but I think you’ll stay for the stories.

    I’ve been listening to Today in Digital Marketing for at least a couple of years now. When my husband and I left China to “move” to Europe, I was hoping to transition over into Marketing. This podcast of Tod Maffin’s was one of the tools that helped me get up to speed and get a few interviews, I’m convinced. Although I didn’t end up in Marketing, I still listen to, often apply and share the things I learn in this podcast because it’s short, practical, honest, and oddly funny. Which I never thought a marketing podcast could be.

    He’s on Geopat because he’s mentioned the podcast changes here and there over time in TDM so I had a feeling he’d be an interested person to chat about the ins and outs of it all. And YES, he sure was!

    Mae Thomas is not your average podcaster. Her production company, Maed In India, produces their flagship show with the same name as well as many high-quality podcasts from all over India. She started in radio and transitioned skillfully into podcasting with a hunger for innovation and exploration. Mae embraces, no, demands, that the unique characteristics of podcasting be exploited to their fullest for the listener’s benefit. And this is where most of our conversation pitches its tent.

    Yuki and I sat down to have this conversation far too long ago. Life has been crazy and, to be honest, I even stopped drinking coffee for awhile. So it felt weird publishing this episode during that time.

    But things feel a little more frothy these days, so here it is! And here SHE is:)

    Yuki has sought out, enjoyed and brewed coffee in many locations globally. She's more known for her Book Nerd Tokyo Instagram account cause she's also a bookworm (yet another reason to adore her) but you'll often see coffee in her IG posts as well.

    Cause books and coffee go very well together.

    But if you're reading this, you are well aware of this glorious pairing.

    Let me tell you a few things you don't already know.

    Daniel has been documenting his process of learning English via his podcast for while now. It's super inspiring so I feel the need to question him about what inspired him to start, what he's learned (other than language) and what his podcast plans are for the future.

    In December 2019 my dear friend Shannon Martin and I sat down and recorded an episode about The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway. We were so intrigued with the book that we wanted to repeat the process with the more autobiographical version of the book, A Moveable Feast.

    And then we both left China and you know what happened.

    We did record this follow up episode in mid-2020 but life was still hectic. So here it is, nearly a year later. Thank you to Shannon for being so patient during this time.

    Back in November I participated in National Podcast Posting Month (NaPodPoMo), where crazy Podcasters like myself published an episode a day for a month. For this experiment I invited previous guests from all of the Geopats Podcast Network to come back on the podcast. I asked them to relisten to their original episode and record 2 things: an update on what’s changed for them since that episode and their impressions of that episode (most of which were a couple of years old).

    Most guests sent about 10-20 minutes of thoughts to me for this project but Von sent 50 minutes. Oh, this was all so interesting to hear. But for NaPodPoMo, I was only publishing mini episodes that were about 10 minutes long. So I used the “brain burn” clip of Von’s conversation that was about this length for NaPodPoMo and saved the rest of his language thoughts for later. Welcome to later.

    During this episode he shares:
    -how some people overthink learning Mandarin Chinese tones
    -how language learning as an adult can be easier than learning languages as a child
    -how Mandarin Chinese gets more difficult the more you learn it (exponentially so)
    -how he got his Chinese name through rather nefarious methods

    Can social media ground us and make us feel more at peace in this crazy world?

    This conversation with Tania from Swahili Secrets will present an answer to this question that is not common but very refreshing. Tania was born in Kenya and moved around a lot. Her geographical footprint includes 4 other African countries, Thailand, Austria and Germany. Although she calls Germany home, her heart and her projects revolve around Kenya. In this conversation we follow her online journey from her first chat room all the way through to her current day Instagram world. This IG space includes the travel services of Swahili Secrets, the African inspired merchandise of Bantu Sisters, and the community oriented The Kenyan Kind.

    In this conversation we chat about:
