Podcasting and stuttering

Samagra Speech support group has recorded its first pod cast, which has been kindly hosted by stuttertalk.com. While recording it, we discovered that we had become quite serious and our thoughts were diving deep into the issue we were discussing- the four of us. We felt energized by the whole experience, especially when we played it back. Audacity, a free open source program, can help you create podcasts, which can be shared and listened through any mp3 playing device.
The podcast can be downloaded at:

Also check out the brief transcript at:

Stutertalk is planning more podcasts in other languages.
For Self Help groups, this can be a nice way of helping members discover their feelings, sort out their issues and feel more proactive about stuttering. Also, of playing with their voices! And educating the listener.
