British People Be Podcasting

By Morgan Short, Oct 23rd, 2009 | In Nightlife

There's been a real proliferation of podcasts these past few months in Shanghai. Here's the newest one, from local music writers Jake Newby and Andy Best. These guys are doing a local live music orientated one, and it's quite good, as you would expect from the background and experience of the two Kungfuology bloggers. These guys go to all the shows and tell you about them, so it's like you don't even really have to bother.

Then there's also this one, featuring WoAi, Swiss James, and Dingle, which is three guys with three blogs who Voltron-ed up for a little aural dynamite.

More British people podcastings as well over the That's Shanghai podcast, which is a more general expat affairs kind of thing, and there's also the guys at SHAG radio, which is random Western and Chinese music (Me First and the Gimmie, Gimmies, Dizzie Rascal, The Moral Fools) interspersed with discussions on Chinese beard history and stuff.

What's up, England? Is the radio really big over there or something? I used to think podcasts were pretty wacksauce, but these are actually pretty entertaining and interesting. And when people are speaking to you in a British accent, it feels like you're learning something important in school. But anyways, I'm tuned in and hope they keep it up.
