Looking Back, Looking Forward: What's Next for S8 [S8.E1]

Greg and Ed introduce Season 8 of the podcast first by looking back and all that has been achieved. Greg runs through some crazy stats, just a few of which are that there have been a total of 885 shows and more than 1.6 million (!) total streams or downloads. Insane!

Next, the guys check in with Season 1 co-host Tony Joh and frequent podcast guest Phra Phandit. Tony relates his journey first to Japan and then back to Canada, and his business of vlogging his solo motorcycle adventures. Luckily he's doing great, and Greg and he shared some early podcast stories. Phra Pandit then tells his own Canada story and brings us up to date on his various retreat projects.

Last, Greg and Ed do a Zoom call with the podfather himself, Evo Terra. Evo is at home in Arizona having recently returned from Belize. He recaps his EARLY career in podcasting for listeners new to the show and then brings us up to date on his business producing mainly fiction performance shows. The legend continues!

The guys sign off with promises of great things to come in the new season.

Don't forget that Patrons get the ad-free version of the show as well as swag and other perks. We also sometimes post on Facebook, you can contact us on LINE and of course, head to our website (www.bangkokpodcast.com) to find out probably more info than you need to know.
