Caribbean Free Radio #13 – St Barts Dispatch #1

A quickie update from St Barts, where I’m attending the St Barth Film Festival, including an interview with Guadeloupean filmmaker Janluk Stanislas. Thanks to Le Square Restaurant at Le Carré d’Or in Gustavia for the Wi-Fi hookup. You can listen to this podcast in any of the following ways: MP3 | Online Player | RSS [...]

Caribbean Free Radio #12 – Made In the USA

A mini-cast recorded at Gate D24 at Dulles Airport in Washington DC. More talk than usual, mainly about upcoming podcasts, upcoming travels and Delphine; and less music than usual. You can listen to this podcast in any of the following ways: MP3 | Online Player | RSS Feed Links: Delphine’s blog | St Barth Film [...]

More of me

Your friendly CFR host is featured again today on one of our favourite podcasts, Bicyclemark’s Audiocommuniqué. I’m answering a Q&A and sounding a bit like I’d partaken of the holy herb (which I assure you I had not). Do I always sound like that? No wonder people have been describing CFR lately as “relaxing”. Foreign [...]

Interview with your CFR host

Listen to your host being interviewed–and talking a mile a minute, as usual–on the very cool Small World Podcast, whose host, Bazooka Joe, kindly invited me to be a guest on his show. We talked via Skype, so my part of the audio is a bit muffled, which I hope will help obscure some of [...]

Caribbean Free Radio #11 – 3Canal: The B Sides (Part Two)

In Part Two of our interview, Roger, Stanton and Wendell remember the group’s fourth member, the late, great John Isaacs; and I attempt to get Delphine a guest gig on their 2006 album–plus much, much more! You can listen to it in any of the following ways: – as an MP3: simply click to stream [...]

Caribbean Free Radio #10 – 3Canal: The B Sides (Part One)

On our tenth ‘cast CFR visits again with Roger Roberts, Stanton Kewley and Wendell Manwarren of 3canal and plays some of the group’s more “off the beaten path” tunes. This is Part One of a two-part interview. You can listen to it in any of the following ways: – as an MP3: simply click to [...]

Delphine the Diva

Listen to Delphine sing.

Caribbean Free Radio #9 – Because It’s Tuesday

Woke up this morning feeling there was a podcast in me waiting to be let out: this is it. A bit of a runt, I’m afraid, but with the usual talk and music, including my own two cents’ on the value of this thing we do. You can listen to it in any of the [...]

Caribbean Free Radio #8.5 – Retakes

A mini-podcast this one, because let’s face it, the sound quality of the music on the last podcast was beyond appalling. So, to be fair to Chi Chi Peralta and The John Michael Hersey Band, here are their tracks again, served on a bed of the usual ramblings from your host. You can listen to [...]

Notes on The Echo Chamber

Just listened to the latest entry from Barry A Dobyn’s Nothing To Declare, one of the podcasts I listen to. In this one Barry raises the provocative topic of how podcasters seems to have fallen into a sort of mutual admiration tailspin, and one of the examples he cites is the fact that CFR was [...]

Caribbean Free Radio #8 – Cricket et al

This one features potentially boring (to non-West Indians and non-cricket fans) but actually quite fascinating ramblings on West Indies cricket (including a true confession about my own relationship with the game), news about a couple of calypso-related happenings, our first merengue track and other goodies. Please pardon the technical glitches: I’ve acquired some new toys [...]
