We’re working on a Bomb English app for the iPhone and iPod Touch!

Michael — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 11:37:59 +0000

We’re gonna relaunch and get more serious, especially beginning in March. We want to design the app so you can easily read the transcript in an audio player on your iPod Touch, iPhone, or even iPad! We are also going to make buttons to allow 2, 5, and 10-second instant rewind so you can catch the ‘casts better.

Remember — we wanna make a better product, so please understand our need to sponsor ourselves! And also remember, the transcripts will always be available online, although the app will make even this small task much easier!

An update:
Michael and I are very thankful to all the people who’ve volunteered to help us. We are tentatively getting ready to record and release new material very soon. Thank you to all of our listeners for their support and patience.
In the meantime, if you’re really desperate for some podcasting, I’ve been on the Seoul Podcast once again . . .

Jennifer on Seoul Podcast

It is with great trepidation that I announce that I was this week’s guest for the Seoul Podcast. If you ever wondered what I sound like when I’m being really, really silly . . . well, this would be your chance. Go ahead and click here if you want to lose what little respect you might have had for me.

Words and Music

Ok, this is just for fun, but one of my favorite “songs” of all time is Bulbous Bouffant by The Vestibules. Have you ever said a word over and over again until it ceased to have meaning and became just sound? Probably you haven’t, but I’m weird and I have. That’s the basic idea behind this skit . . .

For more fun, you can find more songs and skits at www.thevestibules.com

Too Many Models?

Jennifer — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 06:43:57 +0000

Are there too many foreign (especially western) models working in the Korean underwear modeling industry?

The Sports Chosun did a little . . .uh, research into the issue, and Korea Beat kindly translated it into English There’s also a discussion going on over at FeetManSeoul. The Grand Narrative has also talked about this topic in great detail, and found some research that says it’s not just underwear (PDF) that’s being hawked to Koreans using foreign faces. . .

Personally, nobody’s talking about what really interests me: Are the men in those underoos more likely to be foreign as well? Hmm, time to do some . . .uh, research.
