David Majors is a Twitter buddy. Am I bragging? You bet I am. I’m not sure how we found each other exactly but we’ve been politely exchanging tweets for a while now. I’ve always found him to be that difficult to come by mix of authority and respect when it comes to anime topics. I was, I’ll admit, a little intimidated. No shame in that. The man sounded like an anime professor. Well not sounded but tweeted. You should follow him.
As such when David asked if I wanted to be a guest on his podcast I was both flattered and baffled. For a second I thought he may be thinking about another Irina. That has happened before. No I’m not still super bitter about it….
This is when I decided to do my homework and bindge through Anime Podcast of Some Sort. On the one hand this was a brilliant idea as it allowed me to discover a fantastic podcast that is going to keep me giggling and entertained for a good long while. On the other, David and Jack are such professionals with impeccable chemistry (one of the great strenghts of the show) that my nervous anticipation turned into crippling stage fright.
How can you intrude on such a well geared machine? For the record what David actually sounds like is pure smooth butter. I have no idea what that sentence means but it’s still the only way I can describe it. While Jack is the kind of guy you instantly want to be friends with. I now know what a great attitude sounds like.
I am not someone who lacks for confidence but social situations are not my forte. Stumbling onto a show with such consummate professional was bound to make me look pretty bad in comparison. I should know better than to listen to myself by now!
It seems that part of the consummate professional deal is to make your guest feel super welcomed and manipulate the conversation to have them sound smart and like they have something to say. I can confirm that during that hour I learned two things for sure. Jack and David are much more talented podcasters than I will ever be and Podcasting is really fun I should do it more!
We had a great time and I hope that means everyone listening will have a great time too! You can let me know Cough cough!!! Love the title, guys!
