About The Show

I started talking about recording this show with Bakul in late August 2012, with the show finally airing this Christmas four months later. As a comparison, Episode  #4 was recorded in one take!

Why the delay? This show was recorded beyond the realm of internet itself. At one stage we were unable to form a stable connection between myself in Berlin and Kabul and for a few days I made myself available night and day, ready to work around the time-differences and technological quirks. One startling situation was when I received a message from Habib that Subel was ‘ready to go in half an hour’. With no time to get to the studio I found myself recording snippets of conversation from my kitchen, and overdubbing with my head sandwiched between my sweaters and pants in my closet to dampen the sound (Wooly stuff works best!)

This was an odd way to record a show that features such inspiring people, people who are on the surface totally unconnected, but are in fact linked in many unpredictable ways.
