Hey!

Welcome back to the Monday podcast on radio revel.

Today we take a look at the topic offered over at Cafetalk "Which social media platform do you use the most often?"

This one wasn't easy, I don't use social media. So, I talk about my early Internet experiences with online forums.

Hope you enjoy it. You can see the transcript at Cafetalk.

Hey all!

Good News Friday, sub episode of "It can be done" on line!

In this episode I talk about how closing city streets has become a part of the strategy for enforcing and encouraging "social distancing" and how we need to insist that once all the germs have been controlled we need to insist that cars are kept off our city streets in a "permanent" normal.

You can see the transcript at Cafetalk, where the links are that are mentioned in the podcast episode.

Hope you enjoy the listen!

Hey all!

Monday means a prompted blog posting from Cafetalk.

This week's prompt was something like "If your pet could speak to you, what would it say?"

My offering is "My dog does talk!" I talk about realizing how animals and humans communicate on an emotional level, even if we are not always sure what the other is really saying.

Hope you enjoy. You can find the transcript for this episode here.

cheers,

Hey again.

Busy week this week and this Friday's episode is a little late in getting on line, but better than never!

I don't know about all of you, but I've been noticing a lot of things happening that have not happened before. A lot of them are not at all very nice, but there are some things going on in the world, both locally and nationally and internationally that only a couple of months ago I would have thought impossible.

This week's episode, called "It can be done" (you can read the transcript here) talks about things we have been doing that only a short time ago most of us would have been or were particularly sure were not doable.

Hope you enjoy the episode!

Cheers,

revel.

Hey all!

Welcome to the first episode of Good News Friday on radio revel.

In this episode I mainly introduce you all to what I want to do with sharing good news, first talking about what good and bad and just plain old news is, then commenting on a Youtube channel that concentrates, in its own way, on sharing the good news that’s out there in contrast to all that other stuff we call “news”.

That Youtuber is the actor John Krasinski. I’ve only good vibes from this actor, all the way back from when he worked on the American version of “The Office” and his subtle work on the movie “A Quiet Place”. Somehow I was not surprised at the content in his “Some Good News” channel, and I haven’t seen an episode that did not bring tears of sharing humanity to my eyes. Hope you enjoy it!

Hey guys and gals!

Here's the weekly reading of the theme post over on the Cafetalk Tutor's Column.

This week, the theme was "Your most favorite musical piece"

My take on the theme is called “Favorite song? Can't make up my mind!” I explain why I have a hard time choosing a song and why I think we ask others about their favorite things.

Hope you enjoy it!
