In this episode I talk about my plans for my future podcasts – its structure, content and frequency. You will also hear the message delivered by Pope Benedict XVI during his weekly general audience on Wednesday, 04 May 2005.

They say that marriage is really a matter of adjustment. But the adjustment becomes more complicated when you are married to a person of another cultural, lingual, and racial root. This podcast talks about being in an interracial relationship. My guest is Victoria de Torres, a Filipina married to an Italian for 16 years. She shares about the burdens and blessings of her 19-year marriage and of raising her teenage daughter in the Filipino-Italian way.

I have made a short introduction for my podcast. I used Adobe Audition to record and edit all the audio. I plan to add this intro to all my future podcasts.

The topic for this edition of my podcast focuses on the everyday life of pinoys in Italy – their struggles as well as their joys. My guest is Analisa Bueno Magsino, a 36-year-old mother of two. Like most pinays, Lisa worked for many years as a domestic helper in the Eternal City before becoming a consultant, cultural mediator and editor-in-chief of a Filipino newspaper in Italy.
