I have made some recent changes to the podcast. I've combined the two into one so you will now here the podcast in both English and Japanese. After a few trials I have now decided to do this paragraph by paragraph. You will get one paragraph in English and the next in Japanese. Saikin podcast ni ikutsu ka no henko o okonai mashita. Futatsu o hitotsu ni awase, ima kara anata wa podcast o eigo to nihongo no ryōhō de kikimasu. Ikutsu ka no shiren no nochi, ima kara kono hōhō o danraku go to ni okonau koto ni ki...

This is a new podcast recorded with Reaper vice Hindenburg. Hopefully it's at least as good. Reaper is power tool but I'm still learning how to properly use this new tool. This episode covers things you do as a VA that don't revolve around speaking, Practice of your craft, how often to audition, increasing my skill set, call backs and my new and first audiobook gig.

This version is different from the others. Rather than duplicating each podcast I'm combining the languages. I'm doing this line by line right now but that could change based on feedback or based on how I feel the flow of the podcast is going. Please take a listen and provide feedback. Not sure if people are just not providing feedback or if the system is not working. My tests work but maybe it's because no one is listening?
