The latest honor is that researchers at universities in Tōkyō have a national grant to study podcasting for educator professional development, and they are taking my Japancasting podcast as a case study. They interviewed me by Zoom and I could enjoy recalling my innovations from 2005 in Japan, soon after podcasting started in North America. Here I'm showing some scenes from the early period, and again in collaboration with Indian colleagues, partly to reach English learners in South and Central Asia and those interested in Japan.
