Stuttering 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.

Job 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.
No commentsWhat?!
You think you know someone and then BAM! they inform you that they, too, stutter. And here I thought I was the only one. Go figure. Today’s show is a little pow-wow chat with a friend who I just recently found out is also a cool person who stutters (that bubbling sound you hear in the background is their fish tank).
Also, is stuttering a handicap/disability? And another radio show all about stuttering. Send in your audio comments by calling +1-206-202-0463.

Seductive Stuttering
Continuing the topic of using your stutter to your advantage, today’s show features a chat with 2 fellow members of the toastmasters group for people who stutter that I attend. One member talks about how a girl liked his stutter and while the other explains there is truly no reason to get bent out of shape over stuttering in the first place.

Today we learn from a listener how we can use stuttering to our advantage when meeting women. I am not a love expert, however, I give you my take on the 3 things women find the most attractive in a man.
My apologies for the sound quality.

Well hello there! Golly, it’s been a while since I’ve posted my last episode. Too long in fact. Now it’s spring !(here in the northern hemisphere). Anyhoo, here’s a quick piece of audio until I record and post episode 9 later in the week. Remember, you still have time to send in your audio.
No commentsMe public speaking and shovelling
I shovel the snow again as I play a few audio comments sent in by listeners from warmer climates (there’s a tiny bit o’ buzzin’). Then I play a 15-minute (more or less) audio clip of me in a Q & A panel about social networking.

2 commentsConfidence
Today I talk about confidence accompanied by some personal stories and audio comments. Stuttering isn’t caused by lack of confidence.
I also say something profound like: “When you think ‘I can do this I can do this’, there is a chance you’ll end up doing what you’re doing”. You see, I meant to say you’ll end up accomplishing what you hope to do with flying colours. Anyhoo, I hope you will still enjoy the show.
Music for intro, as always, Holland by Cique
