Why do indo trinis feel everything wrong with this country has to do with our negro brethren?

Why we as a people rant and complain on facebook but nobody is willing to make the personal sacrifices that will make this country a better place to live?

Sat Maraj and Leroy Clarke: they are different but similar: discuss

Things we need to legalize: herb, prostitution (with mandate that hookers must provide current std screening certificates and a list of 'will and won't do's' before transactions are made

Thanks for the feedback. Racism is a topic I want to discuss, especially how its promoted for political gain.

#2 Is more of an over-arching theme of this project. I am guilty of that so it will definitely be an undertone in many discussions even if not directly discussed

#3 Interesting..... gonna do some reading up on that one

#4 I like this one. Definitely have plans to discuss this one in the future

Gonna try my best to remain unbiased and truthful. I don't want to offend anybody but my desire to discuss the truth is stronger. If some people get offended by the truth well.... guess I'll deal with that issue when the problem arises. I am more scared about coming across as highfalutin or as a flibbertigibbet. That would be a shame.

That's purely up to zoomie. I don't fraid that. He have a better grasp on this petrotrin situation than me and from his previous posts he seems older than me with more knowledge of some of our past politics.

It's no secret that I disagree a lot with zr but my aim is to discuss, not censor. In my experiemce censoring an issue robs you of the opportunity to address it.

Once you get embroiled in political talk, it will be a never ending tag-team competition. We really have enough division right here everyday on the forum on politics. And how would that be different from all those radio talk shows? Don't do politics. And what you create today will be irrelevant next 2 years wrt to politics.

History is always a good topic, and you know you can invite professors and cultural icons and get things documented for Trinidad and Tobago. And document some really old people stories too. I remember a very old guy was telling me how he used to ride the rails in the 1930s and all the baytee he was with in the cane fields... and I wish I could have listened to him all day, how his face lit up with memories. Document experiences during WWII. They're almost all gone. This is a big reason why our country, and most 3rd world countries are so lost in their self-development. The history is not documented properly and taught to the next generation.

Music. You know this island has so many gifted people in that. Document some experiences about the golden days of calypso and touring UK and USA by ship in the 1950s to 1960s if you can.

Do a day in the life of a mechanic. From typical servicing, to the grease monkey sweat. Show how these men work hard.

Food. Invite a chef to talk. Talk about the schooling. The experience abroad. The incredibly long and hard hours and the intense pressure in a restaurant kitchen.

In fact you can cover a lot of episodes with tradesmen. Encourage people to get into trades. UWI and typical university programmes aren't cutting it in this country anymore. Invite the lecturers of technical colleges and see if you can get some time in the workshop to give substance of the hands on work. Like tear-down an ac unit/fridge and fix it. A job that's currently in the shop.

It will always have social issues and all those. I just think that those things come and go just like every edition of the morning tv talk show. Anyway, that is the kind of stuff I would be interested in personally. These kind of stories may not jibe with any audience you are looking for. It's up to you to learn how marketing and social media success works in this local market, and to the folks abroad who like to feel at home watching local programmes.

oh by the way, look up some "voice inflection" YouTube videos. Watch how it's practised in some of the most successful channels like PBS Eons, Linus Tech Tips, Mark Rober, Marques Brownlee, Smarter Every Day, the Grand Tours tent sessions.

Slartibartfast · Postby **Slartibartfast** » May 11th, 2019, 4:01 pm

Hey Maj. Tom thanks for the recommendations. I agree about the politics thing. Right now I dont want to tie myself down so yeah I'm definitely open to other guests.

I actually want to start this to show others that TnT has everything that we look for on the outside. I believe that we have plenty trinis here with good ideas and inspirational stories but our problem is that they just don't have a big enough following to be popular.

Btw, my podcast setup is going to be mobile so if you know anyone interesting send me a pm and I could carry my stuff and set up by them to shoot the podcast. My bro actually linked up a session with a Wickan priest soooooo.... that's gonna be interesting..... I'm really excited for that though. But yeah, I know I'll inevitably end up talking about local issues and politics but i really want to give attention to the things down here that just don't make it into the media. Sh!t I already seeing I'll have to put in a lot of effort to avoid falling into thay rutt. You are right

Didnt know about the voice inflection thing though. I'll check it out.

It is a true podcast but I'm trying to make video also available. Going to host it on podbean, rss link will be made available for use with your podcast app. Will register it with apple podcasts once I have enough content to qualify. Main focus is audio cuz I can't afford good video equipment now. Video will be made available on youtube for those that want to check it out there. If I can get sponsorship later to help with hosting I'll make videos downloadable as well.

If you concerned about your identity remaining confidential it's no prob to obscure your face. Hit me a pm if you really interested.

Idea for a topic
A clean car given our current water woes should be a sign of shame and not pride

4 is a lot.

Mines wash twice and one was when the dealership washed it after servicing in January.

MG Man · Postby **MG Man** » May 13th, 2019, 9:22 am

yeah I know
Twice was when a customer with a car wash took the liberty of washing while I was in meetings with him, but it still counts
Washed the wife car three times since January, and the weekend car got washed once, for Cars & Coffee
damn, now that I've typed that out, it really adds up :/

Thanks. Trying to have some informative ones and some entertaining ones. Plenty trinis out here are smarter and not as simple minded as people like to pretend. I'm hoping that this show becomes something good enough for people like you and them.
