Geopats: conversations with expats Steph Fuccio, Coffeelike Media

In this podcast episode I go back to China, virtually! I chat with Lawrence Lin, a Chinese podcast industry expert. He shares all about the exciting opportunities for podcasting AND other audio mediums in China. We discuss the current landscape and emphasize the growing popularity of podcasts in major cities like Shanghai and Beijing. Additionally, Lawrence compares the evolving monetization strategies of these mediums and the prospects for advertisers to target specific audiences as the audio space evolves.

Language podcaster Craig is from the UK but has been podcasting in Spain for many years. Alternatively business podcaster Pilar has the opposite geographical podcasting experience being from Spain and podcasting from the UK for a long time. And yet they found each other and created a podcast about the scene in Spain some years ago. In this conversation with Craig and Pilar we dig into what they learned about podcasting in these two countries, how the space has changed since their podcast was live and how indy podcasting differs from business podcasting. These two folks are knowledgeable and are tapped into the space in a passion led way so there's a lot to learn from them. Let's get to it!

You know I love listening to other expat podcasts. Well, my client, Amanda Bates of The Black Expat, has an incredible podcast called The Global Chatter, which is:
"a conversational podcast on international mobility, identity, race, career, and more. Each episode takes a deeper dive on issues related to the expatriate experience, especially as it relates to Black and Brown people."

This is an episode swap with The Global Chatter. Hurrah!

JK Hobson is Amanda's guest. They talk about his wild career trajectory to places in the world (Puerto Rico, New York City, Saigon/Ho Chi Minh City, etc) and of course, identity and race experiences that he's noticed and experienced along the way.  Oh, and lot's of musical references because he is a musician and Amanda loves music!

Their conversation is intense, funny and insightful. And it's here to make your ears happy. Let me know what you think. I'm @stephfuccio on the socials.

Making our morning cup is not only a ritual and often an energy requirement but it's a sound experience. That's why I'm so glad that Audio Engineer Jason Sheesley agreed to join us for this playful coffee chat. We explore U.S. and Europe coffee and coffee culture, his peak coffee experience, and take a look at his kitchen coffee setup. And more!

Questions about family can be triggering if the experience was not ideal. This is one of the reasons that Steph's talked about her family in tiny drips here and there but not in depth. But it felt disingenuous to ask other expats to open up about their early family life growing up with immigrant parents without diving into these experiences herself. So to help with this tabled turned interview, Melissa was kind enough to hop in and guide the conversation.
