Brazilianisms

We've Got Forums

I've put together a Brazilianisms forums site to make it easier for people to leave feedback and have ongoing conversations. If you're interested, check it out, and let me know if you have any problems setting up an account and leaving posts. This is my first time as a forum administrator, so there may be glitches. The comments section of the blog will always be open, so you don't have to set up an account in the forums to continue leaving feedback for us.

Episode 26: Catching Up On Feedback

We catch up on some of the feedback that's piled up in our absence. (I couldn't find a good photo to go with this episode, so I just used an old one of Milton from 1991.)

Episode 25: We're Back!

After a harrowing experience in the Toronto airport, I'm back in Brazil and ready to podcast. Milton's not so ready, but I finally convinced him to come over and record.

Episode 24: John of God

After a slight delay, we're back with a new episode. I, Milton and my brother Frank do a show from Abadiânia, where we went to see Brazilian healer John of God. (If only Milton had been cured of his insanely loud sniffles.)
