Sun, 25 June 2006  The Chinese lesson starts about 31 minutes in. This is my first experiment with music on the podcast -- check out the Seldon Plan's whole album, Making Circles, at Magnatune.com. Thanks to that group for being openminded about podsafety and music. There is a second strange attempt at humor involving foreign accents in this episode. I also talk about the book "Everything is Illuminated" by Jonathon Safran Foer.

Wed, 7 June 2006  Episode 2: with Erdos, Gnosticism, Xunzi, and more Chinese.The Chinese lesson starts at around 25:00 and goes to about 47:00. There is more content to follow, including the answer to the puzzle presented early in the cast. Someone please tell me how to split my Mp3 into three "tracks" so that you can skip to or past the Chinese lesson! Kudos to my boy Adam for his participation in the cast. Look out for jellyfish. www.wikipedia.org/PinYin Comments[4] |
