Getting Better Acquainted

In GBA 51 we get better acquainted with my niece, Sonia. She talks about giving birth to her two children which were very different experiences to each other, her feelings about motherhood, having a strong friendship group, smiling at strangers, experiences of Australia, the desire to work with her hands and lot's more.

We touch on becoming like our parents, what that means and how it can be embraced. I'm also revealed to be a Buncle, uncover her hatred for Chickens and discuss her influence on me when I was growing up.

It’s a really open and wide ranging conversation that was a joy to record.

Sonia Plugs:

Romance, reality and positivity!

In GBA 50 we get better acquainted with Mathy. She talks about how the loss of her job and the loss of her dad led to her changing her life. And she talks about her life up to that decision: Her journey from the Congo, through lots of other countries, being expelled from boarding school in South Africa, and the loss of both her parents. She goes though struggles to get employed, to getting a job helping others to get jobs, to losing that job and finding a new direction. Her story is moving, poignant and inspiring.

In GBA 49 we get better acquainted with Frank. He talks machine learning, science communication, the social situation in Luxembourg, living in Edinburgh, podcasting and more. It was recorded early in the morning during last year’s Edinburgh Festival in a sound proofed science fiction complex deep below Edinburgh University.

This episode, with the two before it, forms a sort of accidental miniseries about people who are involved in making audio. This wasn’t fully intentional but is welcomed nevertheless. I do programme the show for variety and there is still variety within these three episodes; however GBA is not always about people who exist in the audio world.

I met Frank through http://said.fm/ which has morphed into http://thesupertimes.com/

For more on the people doing heading that audio app project check out this episode of GBA: http://soundcloud.com/gettingbetteracquainted/gba-7-aisha-and-abdel
