I just need 4 votes to put Missionary Talks in the top 25 podcasts in the Religion and Spirituality category at Podcast Alley for the month of January. You don’t have to register with them to vote, but you do need to give them your email address. They will send you a confirmation email which has a link inside that you must click to confirm your vote. I have never yet received spam as a result. So I think it is safe.

When voting there you are given the option to leave a comment. Comments are not required, but appreciated.

Also, if you have nice things to say and you have an iTunes account, go over to my show and place a comment.

Finally, the new podcast directory at digg.com has generated quite a bit of traffic to my podcast. If you are a digg member you can digg the show and push me back onto page 2 of the religion category.

This is the final of the interviews that I have planned with Missionary Kids (MKs) for the time being. It was fun talking with them and they are certainly much easier to schedule than their parents. We will be going back to interviews with missionary adults next week.

This episode was a challenge in the production quality department. There was apparently some static getting into the microphone. That is the only thing that I can figure that caused the crackling sound that you hear. It does not interfere with what is said, but is very distracting. I apologize.

The next interview is already recorded. I happen to have a missionary to Cuba in my house with me this week. I think you will really enjoy the episode.

Well the fun in this episode came in the editing room (where more than 30 minutes of recording lie on the floor). The interview was fun as you can probably hear. But, trying to find something worthy of keeping was even more fun. I guess you can see that this episode is shorter than most of the others.

I tried to just let him talk, but that is what ended up on the editing room floor. It was funny to me to listen to it again with my wife today. Every time he would give an answer, I knew there was a 5 minute section that got cut out due to his rambling. It was very entertaining to hear it after I had done all the editing.

I have one more interview recorded with MKs. I recorded it last week. It has some odd noises in it that I am going to try to clean up, but we may just have to live with it. I suspect it will be a short one as well. It is with 2 sisters who also live here in town. The difference in them and the others I have spoken with is that they have lived their whole lives on the mission field. The younger one was born here.

Don’t forget to vote for Missionary Talks at Podcast Alley. If you are a registered digg.com user, you will be able to digg Missionary Talks in their new podcast directory.
