The Internet is great for stutterers
Episode 21
I talk about how I cheered up a fellow stutterer on the other side of the country thanks to the Internet, social media and the relatively low cost of computers, broadband, webcams, etc. In other words, Stuttering 2.0!

1 commentNew phone number and I’ll be on the radio
To my utter horror… I lost my phone number! If I receive no calls to it within 30 days, someone else gets it 
See why you should send in audio? 
The new number is 1-206-984-3922. Ignore my message about SpudCast. There are other ways to send in audio if you don’t want to pay for a long distance telephone call. All the information is on the right==>
Also, I will be interviewed on CBC Radio One! This Friday Monday at 10:00 a.m. (eastern time/Toronto/New York) I’ll be intervieweed along with 2 fantastic podcasters, Mark Blevis and Melinda Mason. The show is called Sounds Like Canada and it’s a great one to check out. How do I feel? Am I nervous about stuttering on the radio? Find out on today’s episode 15b!

New fun features are coming to Stuttering is Cool which I talk about on today’s show. I also mention ever-so briefly Skype. A great tool for stutterers? If you use Skype, add me and let’s ch-ch-chat! My username on Skype is birba0 (that’s a zero at the end).
No commentsStuttering stories #1
I’m really tired on today’s show. So tired that I identify it as show #16 instead of 15. But who’s counting, right? With lack of sleep comes lack of fluency. Or so I thought.

No commentsJob interviews - part 2
Continuing the conversation from my previous episode, today’s show feature’s listener comments about job interviews. I also have an announcement to make regarding a new feature of my website and I ask you what you would like in a cartoon character who stutters.
At the end of the show, I play a snippet of a song from 1922 called You Tell Her I Stutter by Billy Jones and Ernest Hare.
No commentsJob interviews - part 1
I share my advice on staying confident and relaxed in job interviews despite my stutter. Part 2 of this topic is dependent on audio feedback from you. I want to hear your stories. Your tips. Your advice. So enough about me, I want to know what you think.
You have 3 very easy ways to leave audio which are found on the right navbar of stutteringiscool.com. Plus, I also mention it on my show.
