Brits on America: May 2008 Archives

A local radio appearance

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Today I had the fun of appearing on Radio Nottingham, the local BBC station. Morning Show presenter Frances Finn asked me on to her show so I could "hold up a mirror" to those in Nottinghamshire by sharing some of my experiences here in England.

I was definitely nervous when we first started speaking (it was my first time on the radio) but soon forgot that people were listening to the live broadcast all over Nottinghamshire as I chatted away with Fran. We had about an hour-long discourse (with a few breaks for news and music) about everything from American politics to British politeness to Nottingham pronunciations. I had a blast.

You can listen here, although the link will start at the beginning of Fran's three-hour show. I came on at 11 a.m., two hours into it.
