For those of you who enjoy listening to podcasts, Schelly Talalay Dardashti, author of Tracing the Tribe blog, and I were guests of DearMYRTLE on her podcast posted today. You can listen to or download the podcast from DearMYRTLE's site. Our portion of the podcast begins about 37:30 into the program. Schelly and I discuss the use of the titles "genealogist" vs "family historian" and touch on other topics as well.Myrtle is a very gracious hostess and Schelly is a very polished speaker. They both made me feel very comfortable about participating in this podcast. It's a lively discussion that I enjoyed very much. Schelly has a very engaging personality and Myrtle has so much share, I think the three of us could have gone on chatting for hours (but don't worry, we didn't)!
I want to say a special thank you to Myrtle and Schelly for giving me the opportunity to chat with them, promote our community of genea-bloggers, and the Carnival of Genealogy. It was fun!
Hi Jasia,
ReplyDeleteI read Myrt's blogpost this afternoon and spent an enjoyable 30 minutesl istening to you, Schelly and Myrt. Nice job!
And now I know how to pronounce Jasia...but now I don't know how to spell it phonetically! Yah-she-ah? With a California accent, of course!
Cheers -- Randy
Thank you, Randy! I've never done a podcast before and I was a bit nervous about trying to keep up with Myrtle and Schelly... who are both professional speakers. But I don't think I sounded too amateurish. At least not for a first interview.

Hi, Jasia,
ReplyDeleteYou were great, and I like that title, The Jasia and Schelly Show."
Maybe we should take it on the road?
Thanks for making it a great podcast. I was also nervous as I hadn't done one before either.
Schelly
Well, I'll have to download the show to my iPod tonight! Can't wait to listen!
