The Toastmasters Podcast with Greg Gazin
The Toastmasters Podcast is like a radio talk show featuring interviews with Toastmasters usually featured in the Toastmaster magazine. The purpose of the podcast is to amplify the magazine - to dig deeper or to put a voice to a face or written wordBut unlike a radio show, a podcast is on the Internet, and available, for free, to anyone in the world with an Internet connection, and a connected device capable of playing audio. 250+ episodes are at ToastmastersPodcast.comThe Toastmasters Podcast is co-produced by Toastmasters International and Archieboy Holdings, LLC, for our global audience of Toastmasters and those interested in public speaking and leadership.
[18:00] Toastmaster Linda Cohen talks about what she has learned from her experiences with the media, including the first time she appeared on TV. She had gone on a local morning show to discuss her book 1,000 Mitzvahs: How Small Acts of Kindness Can Heal, Inspire and Change Your Life, which explores the acts of kindness she performed in her father’s memory. Although the Oregon resident was nervous about the show, she says her Toastmasters training — especially Table Topics practice — paid off big for the TV interview! Featured in the October 2011 issue of the Toastmaster magazine, Linda has had additional media opportunities since that initial experience.
