The Dr.Vibe Show: Black Mens Roundtable – Oprah Winfrey From A Black Mans Point Of View

0

Oprah Winfrey

There is no questioning of Oprah Winfrey’s popularity with women. But, what do Black men think about Oprah? In this episode, David Blackman, Colin Jobe (http://colinlovesdocs.wordpress.com/) and Mike Ramey (http://www.blackmeninamerica.com/manhoodline.htm) chat about Oprah. We have a spirited discussion about Oprah that ranges from Oprah’s opinion in the eyes of Black men, Is she any different in any way from other Black entertainers?, Should we hold Black entertainers to a higher standards?, Has Oprah been negative towards Black men? and Has she and other Black entertainers been “playing it safe”?

The Dr. Vibe Show: DR. VIBE PRESENTATION ON PODCASTING AT THE CANADIAN ASSOCIATION OF BROADCAST JOURNALISTS AGM ON JUNE 18, 2011

0

On June 18th, I had the opportunity to talk and share about podcasting at the annual general meeting of the Canadian Association Of Black Journalists (CABJ). Even though I have spoken to groups about podcasting before, this was the first time that I recorded one of my podcasting “how to” sessions.

In this episode, you get to hear some of my story including how the show started and how it has grown. I also provide the steps that I go through in doing a podcast from getting people to interview to the equipment that I use to do podcasting. One thing that I forgot to mention that I do podcasting via Skype to Skype calls on top of doing interviews Skype to a cell phone and Skype to a land line phone.

Please note that I recorded this presentation via a portable MP3 recorder so the sound is not 100%. I tried my best to make the recording the best that I could for you. I also encountered a challenge with the power point presentation (I lost some slides!!) but we worked in out. We were able to video record most of my presentation and will be posting it in the near future.

I would like to thank the CABJ and the audience for allowing me to share with them. For more information about the CABJ, please go to their website at http://cabj.ca/
