  • Journey 1: Part II: Angola: Episode 2: Book 1: Culture & Customs of Angola by Adebayo O. Oyebade
    Jun 6 2024

    In this episode I go over the first book of this journey through Angola. The text focuses on the culture and customs of Angola, as indicated by the book's title. However, amongst other topics, it surprisingly revealed a history plagued by armed struggles of different types.

    The title and question of the 2nd book in this journey are revealed towards the end of the episode.

    Mar 7 2024

    The Korean Peninsula is known for its gastronomy. I used the second "Let's Glocalize!" activity as an excuse to learn more about it.

    In this episode I show how I learned how to make Korean dumplings, known as mandus, and how I customized them to fit personal and cultural preferences.

  • Let's Glocalize! Part I: South Korea: Episode 2: Sports: Baseball
    Feb 1 2024

    Episode 2 of the "Let's Glocalize!" Limited Series shows the decisions that led to my selecting baseball as activity to glocalize. In addition, it looks at various aspects of that experience.

    Towards the end of the episode a clue about the next country in the first journey around the world is included too.

    Note: The podcast is now found in other platforms like iHeart, Public Radio, and Apple Podcasts where only audio episodes are available. If you are listening through one of those platforms know that any gaps in the audio is usually a transition between sections in the video of the episode. I'm working on making these transitions shorter in the Let's Glocalize episodes that have not been recorded yet. That way the audio is suited for both formats.
