On the Radio... oh oh!

On Thursday Krysta and I went to Sangolqui to give our first radio charla. We are giving monthly talks on the radio about various topics. We decided to talk for 30 minutes on breast cancer. We arrived to the radio station (SuperK) ready to speak spanish live on air... ok, we might have been a little nervous.

We sat in a room opposite the DJ with headphones on so we could hear her prompts and questions. The only problem was that the headphones didn't work. So we ended up having to read her lips through the glass window separating us and strained our ears to catch about every other word she said.

We may not have answered her questions; we'll never know. But we kept frantically reciting different information about our topic. Worst case scenario: people turn into the radio every third Thursday of the month to hear the silly gringos... Even if we sound like fools, at least people are getting some information about important topics!
