@TisforTraining 251: Late Night Bacon

Maurice Coleman and Jill Hurst-Wahl met in Talkshoe  on a Friday night at 9 p.m. ET to do a show.  Yes, we’re recording now in the evenings, although perhaps not this late (unless it works well for people).  Maurice and Jill primarily talked about the ALA Annual Conference, which was held June 21-24 in Washington, DC.  Amazingly, Jill has added dozens of library-related conferences, but this was her first full-fledged ALA conference!

We talked about specific ALA sessions, pros and cons of the conference, the exhibit hall, and some conference advice.

Given that we are now recording in the evening – and it is summer – we’re not on a new schedule yet.  Maurice intends to host a show during the week of August 12.  Watch for an announcement of when that will occur.

T Rides Tonight!

So we are going to try an evening recording of the podcast.  Tonight at 9 eastern via talkshoe. Call information is on the sidebar.

Sorry that there are no real links but i am doing this from my older phone.

See some of you then.

Ch-ch-changes for T is for Training

First, there will be no show recorded this Friday, July 19.  While you’re considering what to do with the time, we’re asking that you use part of that time to give us some feedback.

After 10+ years, T is for Training needs to record on a different day and a different time. This is a major change for us, so we want to ask if there is something else we should change. Do you want us to:

• Change the focus on this podcast?
• Create shorter podcasts?
• Do more interviews?
• Wrangle more people to be participants?
• Or…what?

Please leave comments and let us know your thoughts! Thanks!  Every comment – even if it is just a word of encouragement – helps.

And – yes – once we have set our new recording schedule, we will post that information broadly.  For now, I seem to think there are some interviews from the ATD Conference that haven’t been published yet….

No show this July 5th.

We will not be recording this coming Friday, July 5th, 2019.   We have been given a day off and will use it for increased consumption of Vitamin D.

The only constant in life is change and this show is no different.

Don’t worry, the show will continue. That much I can say for now.

Stay tuned for updates in the coming weeks.
