Hi Candice
glad you had a chance to listen to the podcast! Yes, the stereotype issue is one that I’ll probably be picking back up in later episodes, since it’s such a big topic.

Yes, the first podcast was a learning experience as regards capturing and working with the audio. I made some mistakes in the first two, but think that number three sounds ok. The fourth will be even better!
thanks or listening tom!

Hey Mr. Taural! I think your voice works pretty well for this type of thing. It has a nice, young, professor-ish feel to it. I also liked that you were able to use the word nutjobâ€”havenâ€™t heard that in a few years.
There was a bit of white noise that muffled your voice, but that just may have been my laptop.

Itâ€™s interesting for me to listen to you doing a bit of comparing stereotypes between German and English speakers. After living in the East for the past few years as a Westerner, I tend to forget that there are many differences between Western nations itself. Overall it kind of made me miss living in Germany myself. Iâ€™ll be looking forward to visiting there later this summer. I for one will be glad to be stereotyped as American as opposed to just another round-eyed, white-skinned, blue-eyed, blond-haired Westerner.

Iâ€™ll listen to the next one tomorrow!

Peace!
