Yes, I've decided to take the plunge. I will be learning about and trying to create my very own podcast. I have not yet decided what the topic of conversation will be about, but I have various inklings:
-Youth For Understanding and its secretive intricacies involving international students in the USA and Americans overseas
-German language and culture, maybe a book club dedicated to German authors only
-San Francisco's finest bars (this means I'd have to get out more often)
-Movie reviews (like there's no other podcasts about this...)
-Travel experiences a la Liz
I'm kinda leaning towards the YFU drill, even if nobody else with YFU knows about it yet. It could be fun to get people from all over the country to call in and voice their concerns/praise/etc for YFU and the students. Maybe students that want to go abroad will find this and get involved. Maybe this is a great way to keep volunteers across the country involved. And hey, I didn't join the YFU National Alumni Council for nothing!
There could be a blog dedicated to this, where the podcast could sit as well. Now all I have to do is get the national office involved, so that it's not all out of my head kind of stuff. It might happen. Smile.
