28: Back to China with Miicher of the China Chronicles

12/27/2020

0 Comments

 
Have you ever gone back to a place that you struggled being in the first time? Would you ever? Our guest in this episode is my dear friend Miicher and she did just that. The first time we chatted in December 2018 on Geopats Reflections we were both living in Shanghai, China. If I am honest, we were both ready to leave. However, after returning to Florida, USA, she had a change of mind and went back to China this Fall. I don't want to spoil what led her to this decision, what she's doing there or any other juicy details because she tells her story way better than I ever could. So have a listen to Miicher fill us in on what's happened for her over the past 2 years AND what she thinks of her 2018 China expat self in this reflective conversation. 

Would love to hear from you! Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn  & you can even leave a voice message on Speakpipe.

27: The Power of Online Collaboration with Musician Damon Castillo

12/25/2020

0 Comments

 
This episode is really special for me. Last month for NaPodPoMo I had the extreme pleasure of chatting with Damon Castillo for this episode. Yes, THE Damon Castillo of the Mess of Me album that we've been using for the past 2 years in all of the Geopats Podcast Network shows. We talk about the longevity of the Damon Castillo Band, his geopatness, my favorite song on the Mess of Me Album (Saint Cecilia), his recording studio in San Luis Obispo, what music he listens to and some creative struggles.

26: Being Flexibly Creative Online With Comedian Andy Curtain of Ho Ho Hong Kong Podcast

12/24/2020

0 Comments

 
About 2 years ago Comedian Andy Curtain let us dig into his virtual past on Geopats Online (then called Virtual Expats). In that interview, we dug into how his online habits changed when he moved from Australia to Shanghai, China more than a decade before. And of course, since then he has moved again, down to Hong Kong specifically. It's so easy to drop all creative projects when relocating to a new place but Andy not only kept his creative juices flowing but he pivoted his podcast presence to reflect his new place and his more permanent role in the comedy community there.

Would love to hear from you! Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn  & you can even leave a voice message on Speakpipe.

24: Expat Isolation & Music with James Errington, Centuries of Sound Podcast

12/25/2019

0 Comments

 
​Has music ever soothed your soul and made you feel connected again? Yes, me too. And it sounds like the same happened to James when he was an expat for well over a decade. He is back in his home country now so his perspective on his time in the Czech Republic and China are especially poignant. As is the origin story for his intensely researched and impressively sounding podcast, the Centuries of Sound.

​Stephanie is a serial expat, coffee addict and former language instructor turned marketing experimenter and yea, podcaster. Yes, she is usually the host of the multitude of Geopats Podcast shows but in this episode she is the guest. Yup, we are turning the mic around (kinda) and fellow Podcaster and all around wonderful human being, Chris Osborne from Play Comics Podcast is the guest host. His hard line millennial approach to this social media goddesses online existence is shocking at times but I think we can agree that it is worth it.

22: Rwanda, China & the U.S. Internet With Former American Expat Keturah Kendrick, Author of "No Thanks: Black, Female, and Living in the Martyr-Free Zone”"

9/27/2019

"I actually believe that China is about 15 times more advanced in the usefulness (with social media) than the United States." Keturah Kendrick. 
​
Keturah’s online activities changes a lot when she moved to China, but not in ways that you think. Keturah is an intelligent, articulate and delightful person to talk to. I met her at a Podcast Creators meeting in Shanghai, China a few months ago and knew instantly that she needed to be on this podcast for y'all to meet. Her honesty on her online activities pre and post moving to China is really interesting. Keturah is now back in New York City in the U.S. doing her book tour for "No Thanks" and suffering through the adjustments of not using WeChat and the other mobile conveniences in China that she aptly describes in this conversation.

21: Internet Habits with Yunus Emre Karasakal: Brazilian Jiujitsu Instructor and Douyin Content Creator

9/13/2019

0 Comments

 
In this episode I am pleased to welcome Yunus Emre Karasakal, a Turkish expat in Shanghai, China. Yunus is a Brazilian JiuJitsu (BJJ) Instructor here in Shanghai as well as an Abu Dhabi World Pro Masters Champion (Brown Belt) and an IBJJF Asian Open Champion (Brown and Black Belt). Yes, for the language geeks, he gives BJJ instruction in English and Chinese and yes, we chatted about him coming on the Changing Scripts show soon, don’t worry. Yunus is the first expat I’ve talked to that spends more time on his host country’s social media platforms than the ones he used before moving abroad. The platform he uses the most is the very popular Chinese video app, Douyin, which has an outside of China app spin off called Tiktok. He brings BJJ to a funny level on this current platform. If you don’t have Douyin, don’t worry, you can still see some of his videos on Instagram.

19: China Versus the U.S. Online Life with Drew Pells of On The Counter Podcast

8/30/2019

0 Comments

 
In this podcast episode, it was such a delight to chat with Drew Pells of On The Counter Podcast. If you’ve listened to the Geopats Podcast before you know the topics I usually talk about: sports is just not one of them. I do like the cultural side of the World Cup but that’s it. The first time I connected with Drew, I thought my lack of interest in his passion project, his sports podcast, might impact the conversation that we would have. But then I listened to the first few minutes of On The Counter  and I knew that this would not be a problem at all. Drew is a funny, curious and friendly person who has a serious passion for what he does and can talk to anyone about anything.
