Stan The Man Talks Podcasting

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

TPN’s Stan Relihan (The Connections Show) was interviewed by IT Wire recently about his thoughts on the future of podcasting.

G’Day World #336 - The Sammartino Method (aka How To Get Rich Slowly and Surely)

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Steve Sammartino is not only the founder of Rentoid.com (see G’Day World #306), he’s also one of the smartest money managers that I’ve ever met.

By age 33, Steve had built up a big enough share portfolio to be able to quit his corporate marketing job and live completely on the dividends. That was two years [...]

G’Day World #334 - Leo Sayer

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

In 1980, at age ten, I bought my very first LP record - “Living In A Fantasy” by Leo Sayer. I listened to it constantly - 20 years later I bought it on CD and today it’s always on my iPod. Leo has had several Number One hits around the world, “You Make Me Feel [...]

Hey… I’m still here

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

Yeah I know I’ve been quiet for a few weeks. I expected to have more time / bandwidth in France than I ended up getting. And I’m currently editing a podcast that I recorded in Ajaccio with an Israeli historian Allon Klebanoff about J. S. Bach which will be up soon. Meanwhile, I’m crazy busy [...]

My Legion of Merit Award

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

So while I was in France I was presented with the quite-prestigious “Legion Of Merit” award by the La Société Napoléonienne (aka the International Napoleonic Society) for my “contribution to the promotion of Napoleonic history” via the Napoleon podcast I produce on TPN.

As you can see, I’m the 97th person to receive the award. [...]

Bonjour from Ajaccio!

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

France, Day One

Saturday, July 5th, 2008

I nearly missed my connecting flight from Changi but, apart from that, the 28 hour trip (door to door) here went smoothly. It took me an hour to get through customers, an hour to get to the Latin Quarter where my hotel is… and then another 90 minutes while I walked around LOST because the [...]
