British Culture: Albion Never Dies The 100th Episode: What have I learned, and what's coming up?
Don't be shy, send me a message!
Today, I’m talking about:
(1) T is for… Thomas
I talk about my experience in China, with Chinese social media and blogs, which led me ultimately to creating my @FlemingNeverDies Instagram account, and this podcast, which I chose *not* to give the same name.
(2) What have I learned?
- Social media works best when it is more 'social' than 'media'.
- Where you stand depends on where you sit; as I gained perspectives from around the world, and as I move betwen China, the USA, and the UK itself.
- Where you stand depends on *when* you sit; the lag between perception and reality, which can be increased through geographic distance.
(3) 1-100 in ten minutes
Okay, maybe not a whole ten minutes here, but I talk about how my podcast evolved from its initial form - influenced by Chinese social media - to the regular podcast you now get every week.
(4) Where next?
Learning a lesson from Elliot Carver (or was it James Bond?), I will remember the first rule of mass media and give the people what they want:
- I will bring back 'The Alphabet of Britishness'.
- I will finally review Bond content (I've resisted this one a long time)
- I will create more Youtube videos, both uploading the 'deep dives' there and 5 minute video-only content.
Plenty to look forward to, and plenty of room for your suggestions.

Something that really is new is my newsletter. Several subscribers have their postcards and other little 'thank you's in the post, just randomly drawn from the list!
