World Hum Featured in Podcast
Travel Blog • Jim Benning • 01.27.05 | 10:11 PM ET
Of all the adjectives one might use to describe World Hum, high-tech is not one of them. So I was delighted to be featured this week as the subject of an audio interview on a decidedly more tech-savvy blog, Gadling.com. Launched by Erik Olsen, whose resume includes stints at the Department of Interior and ABC News, the travel blog features Olsen’s take on what he calls “engaged travel.” As Olsen explains on the site: “Engaged travelers throw themselves (sometimes literally) into action when they travel. Whether sea kayaking in Micronesia or learning how to cook risotto in Italy, Gadling travelers are adventurers.”
The interview with me is included in a 41-minute podcast, which sounds something like a hip public radio show: It’s The Savvy Traveler meets the blogosphere. I’m included in the third and final segment. Olsen also talks up his favorite blog items and articles in travel magazines. Listeners can easily skip sections of the show. It’s an intriguing new format.
