It's FunkTerm Berlin, an audio chronicle of my time abroad. Episode 4 is, at its core, about communicating. With a focus on my temporary inability to do so. Episode notes for the week: A. You'll note that I haven't been blogging for a while, and that I skipped an episode! Never fear, #3 is coming soon-- it's just set to be a bit of a whopper (how does one summarize a trip to three countries in one podcast?) and because of my voice issue, I haven't been able to record narration for a week. It'll be out sooner than you can say "Eichhörnchen." B. Music credits: 0:05/1:10 Okay - Tracy Chen 0:44 Hatschi-Waldera - Nina Hagen 2:28 Jein - Fettes Brot
