Presentation on podcasts... presentation on KATG

AltF4 · 11-20-2006, 11:36 PM

I will be holding a presentation about "podcasts" to about 3000 englishspeaking students (ages 17-22) here in Berlin and of course want to turn it to a presentation on Keith and The Girl and give them a bunch of new overseas listeners.

What show (just parts) would you recommend to play for the audience? Is there any particular awesome KATG show moment you can recall? What's your favourite story?

I'd appreciate any help!

This is gonna be fun - One step closer to the Germany Live Show!

how offensive are you willing to get?

Tanks, Shawn!

As for how offensive - better not too harsh, or maybe not too gross

I mean being funny BY being offensive or gross and crossing the line in a cool way is how KATG often is, which is what makes it so awesome and unique (even though they sure ain't no Dawn and Drew, tahaha), but throwing you right into it might convey something wrong.

Maybe showing both sides would be good - the "regular funny", let's say smoothly humorous bits like the part when they talked about big magic shows after the trip to Van Halen (show 311: Assed Out) which is not offensive... And then after very thorough explanation I can maybe talk about Keet making cumcubes and shitting in drawers :P

3000 students all at the same time? May I ask what kind of presentation this is?

explain what you want to get across in your presentation?

Do you have a theme?

will you compare one to another?

Sound quality?

Basically I want to advertise podcasts as a way to improve your english.
I do not have a certain theme yet since I have a lot of time left and still am in the process of collecting ideas and data.
I will not compare podcasts to one another, and I will just mention very few others. Main focus will be on KATG.
Sound quality? I will be able to play the audio through a good PA system, if that's what you mean.

germuhknee: It's a gathering of students who plan to take english in university. Over 3000 people are expected. certainly not all at the same time, which is why I'll be holding this presentation 3 times. It's not supposed to be long.

So your example is someone with a speech impediment?

They'll tank you.

You want people to learn engrish, and you are going to use KATG.

I guess there is NO chance of tenure

Learning english not as in learning to speak it but pick up some common phrases and everyday conversation. This goes out to people who already speak english very well and just lack experience.
