Brazilianisms is taking a short a break until August. My brother has been visiting me in Brazil, and I haven't had the time to do any editing or produce new episodes with Milton. When we come back, we'll be talking about Brazilian TV, Brasília, and John of God. In the meantime, you can get your Brazil fix by reading my brother's blog.
Scotty J. stops by the show again, and we do an entire episode with him. Despite what we say at the beginning, this is actually episode 22 and not 21.

This is yet another feedback episode.

For our twentieth episode, I give Milton a tour of the Brazilianisms website and tell more amusing stories from my past in Brazil.

We talk about one of Milton's least favorite subjects.

We got a lot of feedback from our series on race. Strangely, most of it was about electricity.

Bad sound quality strikes again. I think I've found the problem, so it won't happen again. (Of course, that's what I said last time.) In this episode, Milton and I talk a bit about the indigenous population of Brazil.

In the second part of our three-part look at race in Brazil, Milton and I continue our discussion on how blackness is regarded in Brazil and how it came to be that way.

This is the first of what will be at least a three-part series on race in Brazil. Unfortunately, gremlins once again attacked our sound equipment, and there seems to be no way to filter out the very annoying staticky crackle. Ordinarily, I wouldn't even publish this, but it's one of our best episodes. The next two race episodes (already recorded and without the crackle) really need the groundwork laid down in this one, so please give it a listen and accept my apologies. I'm taking measures to insure that nothing like this happens again.

I Skype Milton to talk about his recovery and tell a couple of amusing anecdotes about Simone's sister. This is clearly not our best episode, and if your main reason for listening is to learn about Brazil, you'll probably want to skip this one. Next week we get back into the swing of things with the first installment of a three-part (at least) series about race in Brazil.
